             Summary: CleanupTableInfo annotation if missing, can lead to 
unintended TableCache grow
                 Key: HDDS-4479
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDDS-4479
             Project: Hadoop Distributed Data Store
          Issue Type: Test
          Components: OM
            Reporter: István Fajth


As it was figured out in HDDS-4478, if the CleanupTableInfo misses a table for 
which we are caching values, then the automatic cache eviction inside 
OzoneManager's double buffer does not evict the TableCache, nor does anything 
else, if not purposefully written in new code, or if a restart of OM happens.

This can lead to larger than intended cache size as we do not evict elements 
that we should.

As the tables that has to be enumerated for the OMClientResponses in this 
annotation, are dependent on the code of the OMClientRequests, it is extremely 
hard to spot a missing table name in the list inside the annotation unless you 
know what are you doing and what you are looking at.
As this is first of all tedious, secondly error prone, we should somehow guard 
against such missing annotation values with some kind of a generic test, that 
checks what is cached in the tables and whether all the tables for which the 
cache was grown we have the name listed in the annotation. Or we can try to 
come up with any other idea which is useful and helps us detect a missing value 
such as in HDDS-4478.
