Alexander Trushev commented on FLINK-20208:
-------------------------------------------
The first issue.
I tested my prototype with DefaultRollingPolicy. There is no need to
distinguish between pending and in-progress files. Both should be removed.
Assume
* stateful source function that produces characters from the alphabet [0-9]
* rolling policy - max 3 characters
* 1 bucket and 1 parallelism
Case
# write 3 characters to .part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1. Bucket:
{noformat}
[.part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1 {status: inprogress, content: "012"}]
{noformat}
# rolling policy change status to pending. Bucket:
{noformat}
[.part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1 {status: pending, content: "012"}]
{noformat}
# write 2 characters to .part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2. Bucket:
{noformat}
[
.part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1 {status: pending, content: "012"},
.part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2 {status: inprogress, content: "34"}
]
{noformat}
# checkpoint 1. Stored state:
{noformat}
{
sourceNextValue: 5,
maxPartCounter: 2,
pending: [{name: .part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1, offset: 3}],
inprogress: {name: .part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2, offset: 2}
}
{noformat}
# notify checkpoint 1 completed. Renaming .part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1 ->
part-0-0. Bucket:
{noformat}
[
part-0-0 {status: finished, content: "012"},
.part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2 {status: inprogress, content: "34"}
]
{noformat}
# write 5 characters. Bucket:
{noformat}
[
part-0-0 {status: finished, content: "012"},
.part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2 {status: pending, content: "345"},
.part-0-2.inprogress.UUID3 {status: pending, content: "678"},
.part-0-3.inprogress.UUID4 {status: inprogress, content: "9"}
]
{noformat}
# job failure. Recovery from chk-1. sourceNextValue=5, maxPartCounter=2,
inprogress= .part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2 \{offset=2}
# Bucket:
{noformat}
[
part-0-0 {status: finished, content: "012"},
.part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2 {status: inprogress, content: "34"},
.part-0-2.inprogress.UUID3 {status: pending, content: "678"} - outdated,
.part-0-3.inprogress.UUID4 {status: inprogress, content: "9"} - outdated
]
{noformat}
# remove .part-0-2.inprogress.UUID3 (2 >= maxPartCounter)
# remove .part-0-3.inprogress.UUID4 (3 >= maxPartCounter)
# next character("5") is written to .part-0-1.inprogress.UUID2
So pending and inprogress files were removed.
[~gaoyunhaii] could you explain what means "pending files (which has been
snapshotted and need to be re-committed)". Is it .part-0-0.inprogress.UUID1
from my case? I don't see a problem with this.
About " So if before failover different subtasks have different number of
buckets, one bucket is very likely to be assigned to another subtask". Looks
like a potential issue.
Bucket-0 is filled by subtask-0, bucket-1 is filled by subtask-1. Then after
job restart, subtask-0 receives bucket-1 and old subtaskIndex-0. In this case,
outdated parts with subtaskIndex-1 from bucket-1 will not be removed because
the condition "subtask index from filename equals to old subtaskIndex" always
false. I have no idea yet if this is possible and how to fix it.
> Remove outdated in-progress files in StreamingFileSink

> Key: FLINK-20208
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-20208
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Connectors / FileSystem
> Affects Versions: 1.11.2
> Reporter: Alexander Trushev
> Priority: Minor
>
> Assume a job has StreamingFileSink with OnCheckpointRollingPolicy
> In the case:
> # Acknowledged checkpoint
> # Event is written to new .part-X-Y.UUID1
> # Job failure
> # Job recovery from the checkpoint
> # Event is written to new .part-X-Y.UUID2
> we have the outdated part file .part-X-Y.UUID1. Where X - subtask index, Y -
> part counter.
> *Proposal*
> Add method
> {code:java}
> boolean shouldRemoveOutdatedParts()
> {code}
> to RollingPolicy.
> Add configurable parameter to OnCheckpointRollingPolicy and to
> DefaultRollingPolicy that will be returned by shouldRemoveOutdatedParts() (by
> default false)
> We can remove such outdated part files by the next algorithm while restoring
> job from a checkpoint
> # After buckets state initializing check shouldRemoveOutdatedParts. If true
> then (2)
> # For each bucket scan bucket directory
> # If three conditions are true then remove part file:
> part filename contains "inprogress";
> subtask index from filename equals to current subtask index;
> part counter from filename more than or equals to current max part counter.
> I propose to remove outdated files, because the similar proposal to overwrite
> outdated files has not been implemented
