             Summary: Session expiration concurrent with ZooKeeper leadership 
failover may lead to broker registration failure
                 Key: KAFKA-6584
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6584
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Chris Thunes


It seems that an edge case exists which can lead to sessions "un-expiring" 
during a ZooKeeper leadership failover. Additional details can be found in 
ZOOKEEPER-2985.

This leads to a NODEXISTS error when attempting to re-create the ephemeral 
brokers/ids/\{id} node in ZkUtils.registerBrokerInZk. We experienced this issue 
on each node within a 3-node Kafka cluster running 1.0.0. All three nodes 
continued running (producers and consumers appeared unaffected), but none of 
the nodes were considered online and partition leadership could be not 
re-assigned.

I took a quick look at trunk and I believe the issue is still present, but has 
moved into KafkaZkClient.checkedEphemeralCreate which will [raise an 
error|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/90e0bbe/core/src/main/scala/kafka/zk/KafkaZkClient.scala#L1512]
 when it finds that the broker/ids/\{id} node exists, but belongs to the old 
(believed expired) session.
