             Summary: In BarrierBuffer newer Barriers trigger old Checkpoints
                 Key: FLINK-2301
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2301
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Streaming
            Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
            Assignee: Aljoscha Krettek


When the BarrierBuffer has some inputs blocked on barrier 0, then receives 
barriers for barrier 1 on the other inputs this makes the BarrierBuffer process 
the checkpoint with id 0.

I think the BarrierBuffer should drop all previous BarrierCheckpoints when it 
receives a barrier from a more recent checkpoint and unblock the previously 
blocked channels. This will make it ready to correctly react to the other 
barriers of the newer checkpoint. It should also ignore barriers that arrive 
late when we already processed a more recent checkpoint.
