TisonKun commented on FLINK-10333:
----------------------------------
[~xiaogang.shi] adding the leader ID as payload and do the real action with
that ID, then the action could be guarded by the fencing token mechanism. That
is, not rely on zookeeper's transaction but with the atomic between lock and
fencing token, a node/component lost his leadership could not actually do the
real action.
> Rethink ZooKeeper based stores (SubmittedJobGraph, MesosWorker,
> CompletedCheckpoints)

> Key: FLINK-10333
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10333
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Distributed Coordination
> Affects Versions: 1.5.3, 1.6.0, 1.7.0
> Reporter: Till Rohrmann
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.8.0
>
>
> While going over the ZooKeeper based stores
> ({{ZooKeeperSubmittedJobGraphStore}}, {{ZooKeeperMesosWorkerStore}},
> {{ZooKeeperCompletedCheckpointStore}}) and the underlying
> {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore}} I noticed several inconsistencies which were
> introduced with past incremental changes.
> * Depending whether {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore#getAllSortedByNameAndLock}}
> or {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore#getAllAndLock}} is called, deserialization
> problems will either lead to removing the Znode or not
> * {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore}} leaves inconsistent state in case of
> exceptions (e.g. {{#getAllAndLock}} won't release the acquired locks in case
> of a failure)
> * {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore}} has too many responsibilities. It would be
> better to move {{RetrievableStateStorageHelper}} out of it for a better
> separation of concerns
> * {{ZooKeeperSubmittedJobGraphStore}} overwrites a stored {{JobGraph}} even
> if it is locked. This should not happen since it could leave another system
> in an inconsistent state (imagine a changed {{JobGraph}} which restores from
> an old checkpoint)
> * Redundant but also somewhat inconsistent put logic in the different stores
> * Shadowing of ZooKeeper specific exceptions in {{ZooKeeperStateHandleStore}}
> which were expected to be caught in {{ZooKeeperSubmittedJobGraphStore}}
> * Getting rid of the {{SubmittedJobGraphListener}} would be helpful
> These problems made me think how reliable these components actually work.
> Since these components are very important, I propose to refactor them.
