Resolution: Invalid
Closing this ticket, as it is not about Flink, but a fork of Flink, and there
was no more activity after the proposal to close it.
> Schedule UnfencedMessage would lost envelope info

> Key: FLINK-12887
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12887
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Runtime / Coordination
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0
> Reporter: Zili Chen
> Assignee: Zili Chen
> Priority: Major
>
> We provide {{runAsync}}, {{callAsync}} and {{scheduleRunAsync}} for
> {{MainThreadExecutable}}, while providing {{runAsyncWithoutFencing}} and
> {{callAsyncWithoutFencing}} additionally for {{FencedMainThreadExecutable}}.
> Let's think about a case when we want to schedule a unfenced runnable or any
> other unfenced message(currently, we don't have such code path but it's
> semantically valid.).
> 1. {{FencedAkkaRpcActor}} received an unfenced runnable with delay
> 2. It extracted the runnable from unfenced message and call
> {{super.handleRpcMessage}}.
> 3. {{AkkaRpcActor}} enveloped the message and schedule it by
> {{AkkaRpcActor#L410}}.
> However, {{FencedAkkaRpcActor#envelopeSelfMessage}} was called for envelope.
> Thus the unfenced message now become a fenced message.
> We can anyway implement {{scheduleRunAsyncWithoutFencing}} to schedule
> unfenced message directly by {{actorsystem.scheduler.scheduleOnce(...,
> dispatcher)}}, but with current codebase I notice that {{RunAsync}} has a
> wried {{atTimeNanos}}(i.e., delay) property. Ideally how to schedule a
> message is shown on what params ScheduleExecutorService called with, at least
> we cannot extract an unfenced message and envelop it into a fence message and
> then schedule it, which goes into wrong semantic.
