Github user tzulitai commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/3278
Addressed waiting for flushing to start with a latch instead of sleeping.
Will merge this to `master` and `release-1.2` once Travis turns green
(running also locally due to the timeouts).
> FlinkKafkaProducer should check asyncException on checkpoints
> -------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-5701
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5701
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Kafka Connector, Streaming Connectors
> Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
> Priority: Critical
>
> Reported in ML:
> http://apache-flink-user-mailing-list-archive.2336050.n4.nabble.com/Fink-KafkaProducer-Data-Loss-td11413.html
> The problem:
> The producer holds a {{pendingRecords}} value that is incremented on each
> invoke() and decremented on each callback, used to check if the producer
> needs to sync on pending callbacks on checkpoints.
> On each checkpoint, we should only consider the checkpoint succeeded iff
> after flushing the {{pendingRecords == 0}} and {{asyncException == null}}
> (currently, we’re only checking {{pendingRecords}}).
> A quick fix for this is to check and rethrow async exceptions in the
> {{snapshotState}} method both before and after flushing and
> {{pendingRecords}} becomes 0.
