-------------------------------------

             Summary: ZooKeeper client times out with localhost due to random 
choice of ipv4/ipv6
                 Key: KAFKA-7193
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7193
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: zkclient
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Rajini Sivaram
            Assignee: Rajini Sivaram


ZooKeeper client from version 3.4.13 doesn't handle connections to `localhost` 
very well. If ZooKeeper is started on 127.0.0.1 on a machine that has both ipv4 
and ipv6 and a client is created using `localhost` rather than the IP address 
in the connection string, ZooKeeper client attempts to connect to ipv4 or ipv6 
randomly with a fixed one second backoff if connection fails. With the default 
6 second connection timeout in Kafka, this can result in client connection 
failures if ipv6 is chosen in consecutive address selections.

Streams tests are failing intermittently as a result of this.
