--------------------------------
Summary: Incremental checkpoint data would be lost once a non-stop
savepoint completed
Key: FLINK-21351
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21351
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Runtime / Checkpointing
Affects Versions: 1.12.1, 1.11.3, 1.13.0
Reporter: Yun Tang
Fix For: 1.11.4, 1.12.2, 1.13.0
FLINK-10354 counted savepoint as retained checkpoint so that job could failover
from latest position. I think this operation is reasonable, however, current
implementation would let incremental checkpoint data lost immediately once a
non-stop savepoint completed.
Current general phase of incremental checkpoints: once a newer checkpoint
completed, it would be added to checkpoint store. And if the size of completed
checkpoints larger than max retained limit, it would subsume the oldest one.
This lead to the reference of incremental data decrease one and data would be
deleted once reference reached to zero. As we always ensure to register newer
checkpoint and then unregister older checkpoint, current phase works fine as
expected.
However, if a non-stop savepoint (a median manual trigger savepoint) is
completed, it would be also added into checkpoint store and just subsume
previous added checkpoint (in default retain one checkpoint case), which would
unregister older checkpoint without newer checkpoint registered, leading to
data lost.
