Rationale for this change
During the initialization of cursors of SPM (
SortPreservingMergeExec
), it needs to getPoll::Ready()
for each partition, to initiate the next partition cursor. We have experienced a scenario in our downstream where SPM is polling 1st partition continuously but never get aPoll::Ready()
. Those polls get all upstream operator buffers and channels grow. However, if SPM have skipped that partition and tried to initiate other partitions before retry, we did not experience this problem (congestion in partition 1 is cleared once the other partitions are pulled).What changes are included in this PR?
SPM does not wait initiating the next cursor partition. Instead, it iterates over all partitions continuously whether it is OK or not, until they are all successfully initiated.
Are these changes tested?
Yes, with a unit test. The test depends on a timeout duration to sense deadlock but I could also add a memory usage test.
Are there any user-facing changes?
