Yun Gao commented on FLINK-12852:
---------------------------------
Hi [~StephanEwen], I think except for the batch scenarios, this issue also
affects the stream jobs. In fact, the issue was also detected in a stream job.
For stream jobs, the upstream tasks may start first, and they then start
produce data. This piece of data might occupied all the buffers of the TM. Then
the downstream tasks start and they cannot acquired the exclusive buffers
required. Since the downstream tasks can not consume buffers from the upstream
tasks, the occupied buffers of the upstream task cannot be recycled, then the
deadlock occurs.
> Deadlock occurs when requiring exclusive buffer for RemoteInputChannel

> This is due to the required and max of local buffer pool is not the same and
> there may be over-allocation, when assignExclusiveSegments there are no
> available memory.
>
> The detail of the scenarios is as follows: The parallelism of both upstream
> vertex and downstream vertex are 1000 and 500 respectively. There are 200 TM
> and each TM has 10696 buffers( in total and has 10 slots. For a TM that runs
> 9 upstream tasks and 1 downstream task, the 9 upstream tasks start first with
> local buffer pool \{required = 500, max = 2 * 500 + 8 = 1008}, it produces
> data quickly and each occupy about 990 buffers. Then the DownStream task
> starts and try to assigning exclusive buffers for 1500 -9 = 1491
> InputChannels. It requires 2981 buffers but only 1786 left. Since not all
> downstream tasks can start, the job will be blocked finally and no buffer can
> be released, and the deadlock finally occurred.
>
> I think although increasing the network memory solves the problem, the
> deadlock may not be acceptable. Fined grained resource management
> Flink-12761 can solve this problem, but AFAIK in 1.9 it will not include the
> network memory into the ResourceProfile.
