huxihx created KAFKA-5641: ----------------------------- Summary: Metadata request should be allowed to send no regardless of value for max.in.flight.requests.per.connection Key: KAFKA-5641 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5641 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: producer Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0 Reporter: huxihx
Metadata request might not be able to be sent when `max.in.flight.requests.per.connection` is set to 1 and there is already an inflight request in the same node's queue, as show below: {code:title=NetworkClient.java|borderStyle=solid} private long maybeUpdate(long now, Node node) { String nodeConnectionId = node.idString(); if (canSendRequest(nodeConnectionId)) { ...... } {code} However, setting `max.in.flight.requests.per.connection` to 1 actually means no out-of-order for the produced records, Metadata requests should have no related with this config. We don't have to check the inflight request's queue size when sending Metadata request. [~ijuma] Does it make any sense? If yes, I will work on it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
