可靠性是分布式系统实现必须考虑的因素之一。Flink基于Chandy-Lamport分布式快照算法实现了一套可靠的Checkpoint机制,可以保证集群中某些节点出现故障时,能够将整个作业恢复到故障之前某个状态。同时,Checkpoint机制也是Flink实现Exactly-Once语义的基础。

本文将介绍Flink的Checkpoint机制的原理,并从源码层面了解Checkpoint机制是如何实现的(基于Flink 1.10)。

1. 为什么需要Checkpoint

Flink是有状态的流计算处理引擎,每个算子Operator可能都需要记录自己的运行数据,并在接收到新流入的元素后不断更新自己的状态数据。当分布式系统引入状态计算后,为了保证计算结果的正确性(特别是对于流处理系统,不可能每次系统故障后都从头开始计算),就必然要求系统具有容错性。对于Flink来说,Flink作业运行在多个节点上,当出现节点宕机、网络故障等问题,需要一个机制保证节点保存在本地的状态不丢失。流处理中Exactly-Once语义的实现也要求作业从失败恢复后的状态要和失败前的状态一致。

那么怎么保证分布式环境下各节点状态的容错呢?通常这是通过定期对作业状态和数据流进行快照实现的,常见的检查点算法有比如Sync-and-Stop(SNS)算法、Chandy-Lamport(CL)算法。

Flink的Checkpoint机制是基于Chandy-Lamport算法的思想改进而来,引入了Checkpoint Barrier的概念,可以在不停止整个流处理系统的前提下,让每个节点独立建立检查点保存自身快照,并最终达到整个作业全局快照的状态。有了全局快照,当我们遇到故障或者重启的时候就可以直接从快照中恢复,这就是Flink容错的核心。

2. Checkpoint执行流程

Barrier是Flink分布式快照的核心概念之一,称之为屏障或者数据栅栏(可以理解为快照的分界线)。Barrier是一种特殊的内部消息,在进行Checkpoint的时候Flink会在数据流源头处周期性地注入Barrier,这些Barrier会作为数据流的一部分,一起流向下游节点并且不影响正常的数据流。Barrier的作用是将无界数据流从时间上切分成多个窗口,每个窗口对应一系列连续的快照中的一个,每个Barrier都带有一个快照ID,一个Barrier生成之后,在这之前的数据都进入此快照,在这之后的数据则进入下一个快照。

如上图,Barrier-n跟随着数据流一起流动,当算子从输入流接收到Barrier-n后,就会停止接收数据并对当前自身的状态做一次快照,快照完成后再将Barrier-n以广播的形式传给下游节点。一旦作业的Sink算子接收到Barrier n后,会向JobMnager发送一个消息,确认Barrier-n对应的快照完成。当作业中的所有Sink算子都确认后,意味一次全局快照也就完成。

当一个算子有多个上游节点时,会接收到多个Barrier,这时候需要进行Barrier Align对齐操作。

如上图,一个算子有两个输入流,当算子从一个上游数据流接收到一个Barrier-n后,它不会立即向下游广播,而是先暂停对该数据流的处理,将到达的数据先缓存在Input Buffer中(因为这些数据属于下一次快照而不是当前快照,缓存数据可以不阻塞该数据流),直到从另外一个数据流中接收到Barrier-n,才会进行快照处理并将Barrier-n向下游发送。从这个流程可以看出,如果开启Barrier对齐后,算子由于需要等待所有输入节点的Barrier到来出现暂停,对整体的性能也会有一定的影响。

综上,Flink Checkpoint机制的核心思想实质上是通过Barrier来标记触发快照的时间点和对应需要进行快照的数据集,将数据流处理和快照操作解耦开来,从而最大程度降低快照对系统性能的影响。

Flink的一致性和Checkpoint机制有紧密的关系:

  • 当不开启Checkpoint时,节点发生故障时可能会导致数据丢失,这就是At-Most-Once
  • 当开启Checkpoint但不进行Barrier对齐时,对于有多个输入流的节点如果发生故障,会导致有一部分数据可能会被处理多次,这就是At-Least-Once
  • 当开启Checkpoint并进行Barrier对齐时,可以保证每条数据在故障恢复时只会被重放一次,这就是Exactly-Once

3. Checkpoint相关配置

StreamExecutionEnvironment env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment();
env.enableCheckpointing(1000);
env.getCheckpointConfig().setCheckpointingMode(CheckpointingMode.EXACTLY_ONCE);
env.getCheckpointConfig().setMinPauseBetweenCheckpoints(500);
env.getCheckpointConfig().setCheckpointTimeout(60000);
env.getCheckpointConfig().setMaxConcurrentCheckpoints(1);
env.getCheckpointConfig().enableExternalizedCheckpoints(ExternalizedCheckpointCleanup.RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION);
  • 默认情况下,Checkpoint机制是关闭的,需要通过enableCheckpointing(interval)来开启,并指定每interval毫秒进行一次Checkpoint。
  • Checkpoint模式支持Exactly-Once和At-Least-Once,可以通过setCheckpointingMode来设置。
  • 如果两次Checkpoint的时间很短,会导致整个系统大部分资源都用于执行Checkpoint,影响正常作业的执行。可以通过setMinPauseBetweenCheckpoints来设置两次Checkpoint之间的最小间隔。
  • setCheckpointTimeout可以给Checkpoint设置一个超时时间,当一次Checkpoint超过一定时间没有完成,直接终止掉。
  • 默认情况下,当一个Checkpoint还在执行时,不会触发另一个Checkpoint,通过setMaxConcurrentCheckpoints可以设置最大并发Checkpoint数量。
  • enableExternalizedCheckpoints可以设置当用户取消了作业后,是否保留远程存储上的Checkpoint数据,一般设置为RETAIN_ON_CANCELLATION。

4. Checkpoint过程源码分析

4.1 Client端生成Checkpoint配置

Client端在向JobManger提交作业前会根据用户代码生成StreamGraph,再转化为JobGraph,在构建JobGraph时会调用configureCheckpointing生成JobCheckpointingSettings配置并保存在JobGraph中。这里要注意到triggerVertices这个集合,它表示Flink通过这些节点触发Checkpoint。在构建JobGraph时只会将Source节点加入到triggerVertices,决定Flink之后发起Checkpoint时只针对Source节点注入Barrier。

private void configureCheckpointing() 
    CheckpointConfig cfg = streamGraph.getCheckpointConfig();
    ...(省略部分代码,只展示核心流程,下同)
    
    //  --- configure the participating vertices ---
    
    // collect the vertices that receive "trigger checkpoint" messages.
    // currently, these are all the sources
    List<JobVertexID> triggerVertices = new ArrayList<>();
    
    // collect the vertices that need to acknowledge the checkpoint
    // currently, these are all vertices
    List<JobVertexID> ackVertices = new ArrayList<>(jobVertices.size());
    
    // collect the vertices that receive "commit checkpoint" messages
    // currently, these are all vertices
    List<JobVertexID> commitVertices = new ArrayList<>(jobVertices.size());
    
    for (JobVertex vertex : jobVertices.values()) 
        // 这里只会将Source节点加入到triggerVertices
    	if (vertex.isInputVertex())   
    		triggerVertices.add(vertex.getID());
    	
    	commitVertices.add(vertex.getID());
    	ackVertices.add(vertex.getID());
    
	
    // settings将所有Checkpoint配置封装在一起
    jobGraph.setSnapshotSettings(settings);  

4.2 JobManager发起Checkpoint

CheckpointCoordinator是Flink执行Checkpoint的核心组件,JobManager在接收到Client端的SubmitJob请求后将JobGraph转化为ExecutionGraph,并调用enableCheckpointing方法初始化CheckpointCoordinator,然后为CheckpointCoordinator注册一个Job状态变化的监听器CheckpointCoordinatorDeActivator。

public void enableCheckpointing() 
    ... 
    
    // create the coordinator that triggers and commits checkpoints and holds the state
    checkpointCoordinator = new CheckpointCoordinator(
    jobInformation.getJobId(),
    	chkConfig,
    	tasksToTrigger,
    	tasksToWaitFor,
    	tasksToCommitTo,
    	checkpointIDCounter,
    	checkpointStore,
    	checkpointStateBackend,
    	ioExecutor,
    	new ScheduledExecutorServiceAdapter(checkpointCoordinatorTimer),
    	SharedStateRegistry.DEFAULT_FACTORY,
    	failureManager);
    
    if (chkConfig.getCheckpointInterval() != Long.MAX_VALUE) 
    	// the periodic checkpoint scheduler is activated and deactivated as a result of
    	// job status changes (running -> on, all other states -> off)
    	registerJobStatusListener(checkpointCoordinator.createActivatorDeactivator());
    

CheckpointCoordinatorDeActivator实现了JobStatusListener接口,当job状态变成Running时,调用startCheckpointScheduler方法开启CheckpointScheduler,当job变成其他状态时,调用stopCheckpointScheduler方法停止CheckpointScheduler。

public class CheckpointCoordinatorDeActivator implements JobStatusListener 

    private final CheckpointCoordinator coordinator;
    
    public CheckpointCoordinatorDeActivator(CheckpointCoordinator coordinator) 
    	this.coordinator = checkNotNull(coordinator);
    
    
    @Override
    public void jobStatusChanges(JobID jobId, JobStatus newJobStatus, long timestamp, Throwable error) 
    	if (newJobStatus == JobStatus.RUNNING) 
    		// start the checkpoint scheduler
    		coordinator.startCheckpointScheduler();
    	 else 
    		// anything else should stop the trigger for now
    		coordinator.stopCheckpointScheduler();
    	
    

接下来我们来看下startCheckpointScheduler,startCheckpointScheduler首先调用stopCheckpointScheduler确保之前的Checkpoint Scheduler已经停止,然后再创建一个新的ScheduledTrigger放到线程池中定时执行triggerCheckpoint方法触发Checkpoint。第3小节中提到的enableCheckpointing(interval)方法可以设置Checkpoint执行的时间间隔,背后的原理就在这里。

public void startCheckpointScheduler() 
    synchronized (lock) 
    	if (shutdown) 
    		throw new IllegalArgumentException("Checkpoint coordinator is shut down");
    	
    
    	// make sure all prior timers are cancelled
    	stopCheckpointScheduler();
    
    	periodicScheduling = true;
    	currentPeriodicTrigger = scheduleTriggerWithDelay(getRandomInitDelay());
    


private ScheduledFuture<?> scheduleTriggerWithDelay(long initDelay) 
    return timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(
    	new ScheduledTrigger(),
    	    initDelay, baseInterval, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);


private final class ScheduledTrigger implements Runnable 

    @Override
    public void run() 
    	try 
    		triggerCheckpoint(System.currentTimeMillis(), true);
    	
    	catch (Exception e) 
    		LOG.error("Exception while triggering checkpoint for job .", job, e);
    	
    

triggerCheckpoint是触发Checkpoint的核心方法,下面介绍一些它主要做了哪些工作。

  • 检查当前正在处理的并发Checkpoint数是否超过阈值和距离上一次Checkpoint是否小于设置的最小间隔。如果条件不满足,直接返回。
// preCheckBeforeTriggeringCheckpoint是在triggerCheckpoint中调用的方法
private void preCheckBeforeTriggeringCheckpoint(boolean isPeriodic, boolean forceCheckpoint) throws CheckpointException 
    // abort if the coordinator has been shutdown in the meantime
    if (shutdown) 
    	throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.CHECKPOINT_COORDINATOR_SHUTDOWN);
    
    
    // Don't allow periodic checkpoint if scheduling has been disabled
    if (isPeriodic && !periodicScheduling) 
    	throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.PERIODIC_SCHEDULER_SHUTDOWN);
    
    
    if (!forceCheckpoint) 
    	if (triggerRequestQueued) 
    		throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.ALREADY_QUEUED);
    	
    
    	checkConcurrentCheckpoints();
    
    	checkMinPauseBetweenCheckpoints();
    

  • 检查所有需要被trigger和ack的Task是否都处于运行状态,只要有一个Task不满足条件,就没有必要触发本次Checkpoint了。
// check if all tasks that we need to trigger are running.
// if not, abort the checkpoint
Execution[] executions = new Execution[tasksToTrigger.length];
for (int i = 0; i < tasksToTrigger.length; i++) 
    Execution ee = tasksToTrigger[i].getCurrentExecutionAttempt();
    if (ee == null) 
        throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.NOT_ALL_REQUIRED_TASKS_RUNNING);
     else if (ee.getState() == ExecutionState.RUNNING) 
        executions[i] = ee;
     else 
        throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.NOT_ALL_REQUIRED_TASKS_RUNNING);
    


// next, check if all tasks that need to acknowledge the checkpoint are running.
// if not, abort the checkpoint
Map<ExecutionAttemptID, ExecutionVertex> ackTasks = new HashMap<>(tasksToWaitFor.length);
for (ExecutionVertex ev : tasksToWaitFor) 
    Execution ee = ev.getCurrentExecutionAttempt();
    if (ee != null) 
        ackTasks.put(ee.getAttemptId(), ev);
     else 
        throw new CheckpointException(CheckpointFailureReason.NOT_ALL_REQUIRED_TASKS_RUNNING);
    

  • 只有上面两次检查都通过后,才会正在进入Checkpoint的处理流程。首先生成一个新的CheckpointID,再创建一个PendingCheckpoint对象。PendingCheckpoint是一个启动但还未被确认的Checkpoint。等到所有Task都确认后又会转化为CompletedCheckpoint。
// we will actually trigger this checkpoint!
final CheckpointStorageLocation checkpointStorageLocation;
final long checkpointID;

try 
    // this must happen outside the coordinator-wide lock, because it communicates
    // with external services (in HA mode) and may block for a while.
    checkpointID = checkpointIdCounter.getAndIncrement();

catch (Throwable t) 
    ...


final PendingCheckpoint checkpoint = new PendingCheckpoint(
    job,
    checkpointID,
    timestamp,
    ackTasks,
    masterHooks.keySet(),
    props,
    checkpointStorageLocation,
    executor);
  • 为了防止Checkpoint长时间未完成而占用资源,CheckpointCoordinator还会创建一个取消器用于清理超时的Checkpoint。
// schedule the timer that will clean up the expired checkpoints
final Runnable canceller = () -> 
    synchronized (lock) 
        // only do the work if the checkpoint is not discarded anyways
        // note that checkpoint completion discards the pending checkpoint object
        if (!checkpoint.isDiscarded()) 
        	failPendingCheckpoint(checkpoint, CheckpointFailureReason.CHECKPOINT_EXPIRED);
        	pendingCheckpoints.remove(checkpointID);
        	rememberRecentCheckpointId(checkpointID);
        
        	triggerQueuedRequests();
        
    
;
ScheduledFuture<?> cancellerHandle = timer.schedule(canceller, checkpointTimeout, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
  • 最后向Source节点发送消息,触发Checkpoint。
// send the messages to the tasks that trigger their checkpoint
for (Execution execution: executions) 
    if (props.isSynchronous()) 
        execution.triggerSynchronousSavepoint(checkpointID, timestamp, checkpointOptions, advanceToEndOfTime);
     else 
        execution.triggerCheckpoint(checkpointID, timestamp, checkpointOptions);
    

4.3 TaskManager执行Checkpoint

TaskManager执行Checkpoint操作要分以下两种情况来讨论:

  • Source节点接收到JobManager发送的TriggerCheckpoint消息后触发本节点Checkpoint。
  • 非Source节点从上游接收到Barrier后触发本节点Checkpoint,这里可能还会涉及到Barrier对齐操作。

4.3.1 Source节点执行Checkpoint

下面先来看看Source节点是如何执行Checkpoint的。

TaskManager接收到JobManager的TriggerCheckpoint消息后,经过层层调用最后使用AbstractInvokable的triggerCheckpointAsync方法来处理。AbstractInvokable是对在TaskManager中可执行任务的抽象。triggerCheckpointAsync的具体实现在AbstractInvokable的子类StreamTask中,其核心逻辑就是使用线程池异步调用triggerCheckpoint方法。

public Future<Boolean> triggerCheckpointAsync(
		CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData,
		CheckpointOptions checkpointOptions,
		boolean advanceToEndOfEventTime) 

    return mailboxProcessor.getMainMailboxExecutor().submit(
    		() -> triggerCheckpoint(checkpointMetaData, checkpointOptions, advanceToEndOfEventTime),
    		"checkpoint %s with %s",
    	checkpointMetaData,
    	checkpointOptions);


private boolean triggerCheckpoint(
		CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData,
		CheckpointOptions checkpointOptions,
		boolean advanceToEndOfEventTime) throws Exception 
    try 
        ...
        
        boolean success = performCheckpoint(checkpointMetaData, checkpointOptions, checkpointMetrics, advanceToEndOfEventTime);
        if (!success) 
        	declineCheckpoint(checkpointMetaData.getCheckpointId());
        
        return success;
     catch (Exception e) 
    	...
    

StreamTask的triggerCheckpoint会调用performCheckpoint方法,该方法主要工作包括:

  • 创建Checkpoint Barrier并向下游节点广播。
  • 触发本节点的快照操作。
private boolean performCheckpoint(
		CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData,
		CheckpointOptions checkpointOptions,
		CheckpointMetrics checkpointMetrics,
		boolean advanceToEndOfTime) throws Exception 
    ...
    
    final long checkpointId = checkpointMetaData.getCheckpointId();
    
    if (isRunning) 
        actionExecutor.runThrowing(() -> 
            ...
            // All of the following steps happen as an atomic step from the perspective of barriers and
            // records/watermarks/timers/callbacks.
            // We generally try to emit the checkpoint barrier as soon as possible to not affect downstream
            // checkpoint alignments
            
            // Step (1): Prepare the checkpoint, allow operators to do some pre-barrier work.
            //           The pre-barrier work should be nothing or minimal in the common case.
            operatorChain.prepareSnapshotPreBarrier(checkpointId);
            
            // Step (2): Send the checkpoint barrier downstream
            operatorChain.broadcastCheckpointBarrier(
            		checkpointId,
            		checkpointMetaData.getTimestamp(),
            		checkpointOptions);
            
            // Step (3): Take the state snapshot. This should be largely asynchronous, to not
            //           impact progress of the streaming topology
            checkpointState(checkpointMetaData, checkpointOptions, checkpointMetrics);
        );
    
    	return true;
     else 
    	...
    	return false;
    

checkpointState方法进一步调用executeCheckpointing对本地的State进行保存,该方法被封装在CheckpointingOperation类中,其核心工作包括:

  • 调用每一个StreaOperator的snapshotState方法生成快照并存储到状态后端。
  • 检查Checkpoint结果并告诉JobManager。
public void executeCheckpointing() throws Exception 
    startSyncPartNano = System.nanoTime();
    
    try 
        // 调用每一个算子的snapshotState方法
        for (StreamOperator<?> op : allOperators) 
        	checkpointStreamOperator(op);
        
        
        startAsyncPartNano = System.nanoTime();
        
        checkpointMetrics.setSyncDurationMillis((startAsyncPartNano - startSyncPartNano) / 1_000_000);
        
        // we are transferring ownership over snapshotInProgressList for cleanup to the thread, active on submit
        AsyncCheckpointRunnable asyncCheckpointRunnable = new AsyncCheckpointRunnable(
        	owner,
        	operatorSnapshotsInProgress,
        	checkpointMetaData,
        	checkpointMetrics,
        	startAsyncPartNano);
        
        owner.cancelables.registerCloseable(asyncCheckpointRunnable);
        // 检查结果并报告JobManager
        owner.asyncOperationsThreadPool.execute(asyncCheckpointRunnable);
     catch (Exception ex) 
    	...
    


private void checkpointStreamOperator(StreamOperator<?> op) throws Exception 
    if (null != op) 
        OperatorSnapshotFutures snapshotInProgress = op.snapshotState(
        		checkpointMetaData.getCheckpointId(),
        		checkpointMetaData.getTimestamp(),
        		checkpointOptions,
        		storageLocation);
        operatorSnapshotsInProgress.put(op.getOperatorID(), snapshotInProgress);
    

如果Checkpoint执行成功,AsyncCheckpointRunnable最后会调用TaskStateManagerImpl的reportTaskStateSnapshots方法向JobManager发送AcknowledgeCheckpoint消息。

public void reportTaskStateSnapshots(
        @Nonnull CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData,
        @Nonnull CheckpointMetrics checkpointMetrics,
        @Nullable TaskStateSnapshot acknowledgedState,
        @Nullable TaskStateSnapshot localState) 

    long checkpointId = checkpointMetaData.getCheckpointId();
    
    localStateStore.storeLocalState(checkpointId, localState);
    
    checkpointResponder.acknowledgeCheckpoint(
    	jobId,
    	executionAttemptID,
    	checkpointId,
    	checkpointMetrics,
    	acknowledgedState);

4.3.1 非Source节点执行Checkpoint

下游的非Source节点接收到Barrier后,调用CheckpointBarrierAligner的processBarrier方法来处理。processBarrier会分别处理单个Input Channel和多个Input Channel两个不同场景,具体为:

  • 如果只有一个Input Channel,收到Barrier后直接调用notifyCheckpoint触发快照。
  • 如果包含多个Input Channel, 先执行Barrier对齐,收到所有Input Channel发送的Barrier后再调用notifyCheckpoint触发快照。
public boolean processBarrier(CheckpointBarrier receivedBarrier, int channelIndex, long bufferedBytes) throws Exception 
    final long barrierId = receivedBarrier.getId();
    
    // fast path for single channel cases
    if (totalNumberOfInputChannels == 1) 
    	if (barrierId > currentCheckpointId) 
    		// new checkpoint
    		currentCheckpointId = barrierId;
    		notifyCheckpoint(receivedBarrier, bufferedBytes, latestAlignmentDurationNanos);
    	
    	return false;
    
    
    boolean checkpointAborted = false;
    
    // -- general code path for multiple input channels --
    
    if (numBarriersReceived > 0) 
    	// this is only true if some alignment is already progress and was not canceled
    
    	if (barrierId == currentCheckpointId) 
    		// regular case
    		onBarrier(channelIndex);
    	
    	else if (barrierId > currentCheckpointId) 
    		...
    
    		// abort the current checkpoint
    		releaseBlocksAndResetBarriers();
    		checkpointAborted = true;
    
    		// begin a the new checkpoint
    		beginNewAlignment(barrierId, channelIndex);
    	
    	else 
    		// ignore trailing barrier from an earlier checkpoint (obsolete now)
    		return false;
    	
    
    else if (barrierId > currentCheckpointId) 
    	// first barrier of a new checkpoint
    	beginNewAlignment(barrierId, channelIndex);
    
    else 
    	// either the current checkpoint was canceled (numBarriers == 0) or
    	// this barrier is from an old subsumed checkpoint
    	return false;
    
    
    // check if we have all barriers - since canceled checkpoints always have zero barriers
    // this can only happen on a non canceled checkpoint
    if (numBarriersReceived + numClosedChannels == totalNumberOfInputChannels) 
    	// actually trigger checkpoint
    	releaseBlocksAndResetBarriers();
    	notifyCheckpoint(receivedBarrier, bufferedBytes, latestAlignmentDurationNanos);
    	return true;
    
    return checkpointAborted;

toNotifyOnCheckpoint是AbstractInvokable实例,triggerCheckpointOnBarrier方法最终调用了performCheckpoint方法,这后面的逻辑就跟Source节点一样了。可以看出:Source节点和非Source节点执行快照的逻辑是一致的,不同的是触发快照的机制。Source节点接收到JobManager发送的TriggerCheckpoint消息触发快照,非Source节点接收到上游节点的Barrier后触发快照。

// CheckpointBarrierHandler
protected void notifyCheckpoint(CheckpointBarrier checkpointBarrier, long bufferedBytes, long alignmentDurationNanos) throws Exception 
    if (toNotifyOnCheckpoint != null) 
        CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData =
        	new CheckpointMetaData(checkpointBarrier.getId(), checkpointBarrier.getTimestamp());
        ...
        toNotifyOnCheckpoint.triggerCheckpointOnBarrier(
        	checkpointMetaData,
        	checkpointBarrier.getCheckpointOptions(),
        	checkpointMetrics);
    

// StreamTask
public void triggerCheckpointOnBarrier(
		CheckpointMetaData checkpointMetaData,
		CheckpointOptions checkpointOptions,
		CheckpointMetrics checkpointMetrics) throws Exception 
    try 
        if (performCheckpoint(checkpointMetaData, checkpointOptions, checkpointMetrics, false)) 
            if (isSynchronousSavepointId(checkpointMetaData.getCheckpointId())) 
            	runSynchronousSavepointMailboxLoop();
            
        
    
    catch (Exception e) 
    	...
    

4.4 JobManager确认Checkpoint

JobManager收到Task的AcknowledgeCheckpoint消息后,会调用CheckpointCoordinator的receiveAcknowledgeMessage方法来处理。PendingCheckPoint中记录了本次Checkpoint中有哪些Task需要Ack,如果JobManager已经收到所有的Task的Ack消息,则调用completePendingCheckpoint向Task发送notifyCheckpointComplete消息通知Task本次Checkpoint已经完成。

final PendingCheckpoint checkpoint = pendingCheckpoints.get(checkpointId);

if (checkpoint != null && !checkpoint.isDiscarded()) 
	switch (checkpoint.acknowledgeTask(message.getTaskExecutionId(), message.getSubtaskState(), message.getCheckpointMetrics()))
        case SUCCESS:
            if (checkpoint.areTasksFullyAcknowledged()) 
            	completePendingCheckpoint(checkpoint);
            
            break;
        ...
	

private void completePendingCheckpoint(PendingCheckpoint pendingCheckpoint) throws CheckpointException 
    ...
    
    // send the "notify complete" call to all vertices
    final long timestamp = completedCheckpoint.getTimestamp();
    
    for (ExecutionVertex ev : tasksToCommitTo) 
    	Execution ee = ev.getCurrentExecutionAttempt();
    	if (ee != null) 
    		ee.notifyCheckpointComplete(checkpointId, timestamp);
    	
    

TaskManager收到notifyCheckpointComplete消息后,最终调用Task的notifyCheckpointComplete方法回调每一个算子的notifyCheckpointComplete方法。

// TaskExecutor
public CompletableFuture<Acknowledge> confirmCheckpoint(
		ExecutionAttemptID executionAttemptID,
		long checkpointId,
		long checkpointTimestamp) 
    final Task task = taskSlotTable.getTask(executionAttemptID);
    
    if (task != null) 
    	task.notifyCheckpointComplete(checkpointId);
    
    	return CompletableFuture.completedFuture(Acknowledge.get());
     else 
    	...
    

// StreamTask
private void notifyCheckpointComplete(long checkpointId) 
    try 
        boolean success = actionExecutor.call(() -> 
            if (isRunning) 
                for (StreamOperator<?> operator : operatorChain.getAllOperators()) 
                	if (operator != null) 
                		operator.notifyCheckpointComplete(checkpointId);
                	
                
                return true;
             
            ...
        );
     catch (Exception e) 
        ...
    

至此,一次完整的Checkpoint过程就完成了。
