> async topic deletion conflicts with max topic length

>
>                 Key: KAFKA-4893
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4893
>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Onur Karaman
>            Assignee: Colin P. McCabe
>            Priority: Minor
>
> As per the 
> [documentation|http://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#basic_ops_add_topic], 
> topics can be only 249 characters long to line up with typical filesystem 
> limitations:
> {quote}
> Each sharded partition log is placed into its own folder under the Kafka log 
> directory. The name of such folders consists of the topic name, appended by a 
> dash (\-) and the partition id. Since a typical folder name can not be over 
> 255 characters long, there will be a limitation on the length of topic names. 
> We assume the number of partitions will not ever be above 100,000. Therefore, 
> topic names cannot be longer than 249 characters. This leaves just enough 
> room in the folder name for a dash and a potentially 5 digit long partition 
> id.
> {quote}
> {{kafka.common.Topic.maxNameLength}} is set to 249 and is used during 
> validation.
> This limit ends up not being quite right since topic deletion ends up 
> renaming the directory to the form {{topic-partition.uniqueId-delete}} as can 
> be seen in {{LogManager.asyncDelete}}:
> {code}
> val dirName = new StringBuilder(removedLog.name)
>                   .append(".")
>                   
> .append(java.util.UUID.randomUUID.toString.replaceAll("-",""))
>                   .append(Log.DeleteDirSuffix)
>                   .toString()
> {code}
> So the unique id and "-delete" suffix end up hogging some of the characters. 
> Deleting a long-named topic results in a log message such as the following:
> {code}
> kafka.common.KafkaStorageException: Failed to rename log directory from 
> /tmp/kafka-logs0/000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0
