Keith Wall updated QPID-7977:
-----------------------------
Description:
During the work of QPID-7832, it was noticed that there is a potential for the
direct memory used for uncommitted messages to be leaked when a node loses the
mastership.
The test that exposed the direct leak is:
{{org.apache.qpid.server.store.berkeleydb.replication.MultiNodeTest#testLossOfMasterNodeCausesClientToFailover}}
I think the problem is this. When mastership is lost, the underlying database
operations that occur after fail. One possible place this can occur is the is
the rolling back open transactions. The rollback causes the store to try and
remove the messages {{
org.apache.qpid.server.store.berkeleydb.AbstractBDBMessageStore.StoredBDBMessage#remove}}.
The underlying database operation fails on line
{{org/apache/qpid/server/store/berkeleydb/AbstractBDBMessageStore.java:1085}}.
This prevents the direct memory associated with the messages from being
released. One possible fix is a simple try/finally. There might be other
places that need similar attention.
The operation of the group is unaffected, and there is no message loss. The
JVM should eventually release the direct memory itself.
The non-HA use-case is unaffected.
