--------------------------------------
Summary: Transaction larger than max buffer of jute makes
zookeeper unavailable
Key: ZOOKEEPER-2101
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2101
Project: ZooKeeper
Issue Type: Bug
Components: jute
Affects Versions: 3.4.4
Reporter: Liu Shaohui
*Problem*
For multi operation, PrepRequestProcessor may produce a large transaction whose
size may be larger than the max buffer size of jute. There is check of buffer
size in readBuffer method of BinaryInputArchive, but no check in writeBuffer
method of BinaryOutputArchive, which will cause that
1, Leader can sync transaction to txn log and send the large transaction to the
followers, but the followers failed to read the transaction and can't sync with
leader.

The zookeeper service will be unavailable until we enlarge the jute.maxbuffer
and restart zookeeper hbase cluster.
*Solution*
Add buffer size check in BinaryOutputArchive to avoid large transaction be
written to log and sent to followers.
But I am not sure if there are side-effects of throwing an IOException in
BinaryOutputArchive and RequestProcessors
