tv42 opened a new issue, #9152:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/9152

   ### Describe the bug
   
   
https://docs.rs/datafusion/latest/datafusion/physical_plan/stream/struct.RecordBatchReceiverStreamBuilder.html#method.spawn_blocking
 docs say
   
   > Spawn a blocking task that will be aborted if this builder (or the stream 
built from it) are dropped
   
   There's no aborting happening, and I don't think one can do that safely (no 
abort in https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/thread/struct.Thread.html).
   
   What actually happens is that `tx.blocking_send` and friends start to give 
errors, and the caller-provided closure is responsible for returning when that 
happens. 
   
   
https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/sync/mpsc/struct.Sender.html#method.blocking_send
   
   ### To Reproduce
   
   ```rust
   use datafusion::arrow::array::{ArrayRef, UInt64Array};
   use datafusion::arrow::datatypes::{DataType, Field, SchemaBuilder};
   use datafusion::arrow::record_batch::RecordBatch;
   use datafusion::arrow::util::pretty::print_batches;
   use datafusion::error::DataFusionError;
   use datafusion::physical_plan::stream::RecordBatchReceiverStreamBuilder;
   use futures::StreamExt;
   use std::sync::Arc;
   use std::time::Duration;
   
   fn make_dummy_record_batch() -> Result<RecordBatch, DataFusionError> {
       let a: ArrayRef = Arc::new(UInt64Array::from(vec![1, 2]));
       let record_batch = RecordBatch::try_from_iter(vec![("a", a)])
           .map_err(|error| DataFusionError::External(Box::new(error)))?;
       Ok(record_batch)
   }
   
   #[tokio::main]
   async fn main() {
       let schema = {
           let mut builder = SchemaBuilder::new();
           builder.push(Field::new("a", DataType::UInt64, false));
           builder.finish()
       };
       let mut stream = {
           let mut builder = 
RecordBatchReceiverStreamBuilder::new(Arc::new(schema), 1);
           {
               let tx = builder.tx();
               builder.spawn_blocking(move || loop {
                   let record_batch = make_dummy_record_batch()?;
                   match tx.blocking_send(Ok(record_batch)) {
                       Ok(()) => (),
                       Err(_sent) => {
                           // If we ignore this error, nothing "aborts" us.
                           eprintln!("ignoring send error for demonstration 
purposes");
                       }
                   };
                   println!("tick");
                   std::thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(300));
               });
           }
           builder.build()
       };
   
       for i in 0..3 {
           let record_batch = stream.next().await.unwrap().unwrap();
           println!("Record Batch #{i}");
           print_batches(&[record_batch]).unwrap();
       }
   
       // Docs claim this will abort the producer.
       drop(stream);
   
       // If it were aborted, we should stop seeing "tick" messages any moment 
now!
       tokio::time::sleep(Duration::new(5, 0)).await;
       println!("is it still going? bailing out.");
       std::process::exit(0);
   }
   ```
   
   ### Expected behavior
   
   The behavior makes sense, but should be documented.
