Jark Wu commented on FLINK-17918:
---------------------------------
Thanks [~pnowojski] and [~AHeise] for the investigating. After discussing with
[~yunta], [~yunta] pointed that user should take care of deep copying when
using heap statebackend, the Javadoc of CopyOnWriteStateMap says:
{quote}
IMPORTANT: the contracts for this class rely on the user not holding any
references to objects returned by this map
beyond the life cycle of per-element operations. Or phrased differently, all
get-update-put operations on a mapping
should be within one call of processElement. Otherwise, the user must take care
of taking deep copies, e.g. for
caching purposes.
{quote}
However, I didn't find the note on the documentation. If this is true, I think
we should update documentation and update the {{AppendOnlyTopNFunction}} to put
the copied list into {{dataState}} (and this will bring additional cost for
RocksDB statebackend). We should also go through all the other operators.
Besides of this, I can also reproduce the failure for
{{AggregateITCase#testDifferentTypesSumWithRetract}} with [~AHeise]'s commit.
But I think this maybe another issue, because the simplest case
"[LocalGlobal=OFF, MiniBatch=OFF, StateBackend=HEAP]" which uses
{{GroupAggFunction}} will also fail. In the {{GroupAggFunction}}, all the
{{accumulators}} of
[{{accState.update(accumulators)}}|https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/4ff59a72b4c8532510cca349840fcbe668de911e/flink-table/flink-table-runtime-blink/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/table/runtime/operators/aggregate/GroupAggFunction.java#L179]
is always a new object.

>
> After trying to enable unaligned checkpoints by default, a lot of Blink
> streaming SQL/Table API tests containing joins or set operations are throwing
> errors that are indicating we are loosing some data (full records, without
> deserialisation errors). Example errors:
> {noformat}
