Kowshik Prakasam updated KAFKA-10723: ------------------------------------- Description: *TL;DR:* The asynchronous shutdown in {{LogManager}} has the shortcoming that if during shutdown any of the internal futures fail, then we do not always ensure that all futures are completed before {{LogManager.shutdown}} returns. As a result, despite the shut down completed message from KafkaServer is seen in the error logs, some futures continue to run from inside LogManager attempting to close the logs. *Description:* When LogManager is shutting down, exceptions in log closure are handled [here|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/core/src/main/scala/kafka/log/LogManager.scala#L497-L501]. However, this [line|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/core/src/main/scala/kafka/log/LogManager.scala#L502] in the finally clause may still throw an exception once again (for ex: if any of the tasks fail during thread pool shutdown): {noformat} threadPools.foreach(_.shutdown()){noformat} Note: {noformat} ExecutorService.shutdown(){noformat} initiates an orderly shutdown in which previously submitted tasks are executed, but no new tasks will be accepted (see javadoc link [here|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/ExecutorService.html#shutdown()]). It is possible that any of the other running threads that asynchronously close logs may throw an exception. When this happens, {{ExecutoreService.shutdown()}} can throw an exception. This situation is not handled inside the finally clause which means that some of the thread pools which are closing logs could be leaked and continue to run in the background, after the control returns to the caller (i.e. {{KafkaServer}}). As a result, even after the _shut down completed_ message is seen in the error logs (originating from {{KafkaServer}} shutdown sequence), log closures continue to happen in the background. *Proposed fix:* It seems useful that we maintain the contract with {{KafkaServer}} that after {{LogManager.shutdown}} is called once, all thread pools that close the logs are guaranteed to be attempted shutdown once before the control returns to the caller (either via an exception case or a success case). Supposing when multiple exceptions are raised when closing the logs (from different thread pools), probably we can just raise the first exception among these to the caller of LogManager.shutdown (i.e. {{KafkaServer}} ) while optionally logging the rest of the exceptions to stderr. was: *TL;DR:* The asynchronous shutdown in {{LogManager}} has the shortcoming that if during shutdown any of the internal futures fail, then we do not always ensure that all futures are completed before {{LogManager.shutdown}} returns.
