There was a problem hiding this comment.
When a buffered output runs longer than buffer_receipt_ttl, expired receipts are never removed because this is the only call to cleanup_expired_receipts() and it runs only during initialization. Every successfully drained source adds another receipt, while manager_recount() charges the growing SQLite database/WAL files against buffer_dir_limit_size; a long-running instance can therefore reach batch buffer full even with no pending sources or requests, and cannot recover without a restart or manual database maintenance.

If the final sqlite3_prepare_v2() in az_li_batch_admit_chunk() fails, that function returns the positive SQLite error code rather than -1; this check consequently reports FLB_OK and releases the input chunk even though only an orphan source file exists and no row is available to the running planner. Under SQLite I/O, memory, or schema failures, the records remain unsent until a later process restart happens to recover the file, so test ret != 0 or normalize every failure from the admission function.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When shutdown begins while the timer coroutine is suspended in an upload, this early return does not actually defer destruction at the output layer: flb_output_exit() unconditionally calls flb_output_instance_destroy(ins) immediately after cb_exit returns. The coroutine is then either abandoned as the event loop and scheduler shut down, leaking the spool manager, fstore, upstream, and lock descriptors (which breaks repeated start/stop in an embedding process), or it resumes with ctx->ins already freed; teardown must be completed synchronously or coordinated by an owner whose lifetime extends beyond the output instance.

Materialize rows before mutating the SQLite tables
cleanup_drained_sources() deletes from azli_sources while stepping its SELECT, and recover_requests() calls cleanup_acked_request() while stepping its azli_requests SELECT on the same SQLite connection. SQLite does not guarantee which rows the active statement returns after these deletes, so rows can be skipped and their files, bytes, and quota can remain charged. Copy the required column values into owned memory, finalize each SELECT, then perform the cleanup operations.

Align the time-based config fields with FLB_CONFIG_MAP_TIME
FLB_CONFIG_MAP_TIME writes through an int *, while batch_timeout, buffer_receipt_ttl, and http_timeout are declared as time_t. On targets where time_t is wider than int, especially big-endian targets, the stored values can be incorrect. Declare these fields as int to match the config-map contract.

Buffered mode changes more than request sizing: it transfers delivery ownership from the engine to the output plugin. Before enabling it, I would want the persistence, delivery accounting, and full-buffer behavior below addressed. These are source-level observations against bf8dea1; I have not run the integration or fault-injection suites. 1. The artifact commit path does not establish the claimed durabilityThe source admission path calls Directory The ownership handoff needs synchronous persistence of the required file data, metadata, and directory entries before acknowledgement or transmission. Please validate write/sync failures and crash boundaries around artifact/manifest publication. SIGKILL recovery alone does not establish power-loss safety because the kernel's dirty pages survive process termination. 2. Existing success metrics become admission metrics, without replacement delivery accounting
Internal upload retries and quarantine also bypass the engine's retry/drop counters. Azure can be unavailable while processed-record counters increase and reported output latency remains low; records already counted as successful can later be quarantined. The payload-size histograms help measure batching efficiency, but do not replace delivery accounting. Buffered mode needs explicit Azure-accepted requests/records, upload outcomes and retries, quarantine counts, pending bytes/oldest age, and uploader health. The changed meaning of the generic metrics also needs to be documented so existing dashboards and alerts are not silently misleading. The broader telemetry gaps also remain: records per request, HTTP attempt duration, OAuth acquisition duration/outcomes, and bounded failure classifications distinguishing HTTP status from transport/authentication failures. These should use consistent output/DCR/table attribution. Compression ratio and small-request percentages can be derived from the new payload histograms rather than adding redundant metrics. HTTP 2xx still proves API acceptance, not queryability or preservation through DCR transformations; Azure-side reconciliation or an end-to-end canary is needed for that distinction. 3. A failed SQLite admission can still release the engine chunkThe existing review finding appears to remain present: the final That produces Please ensure the flush callback returns 4. Receipt retention can exhaust the quota during healthy continuous operationThe receipt-expiry review finding also remains present: A continuously running output can therefore reach A soak with a short receipt TTL should demonstrate that bookkeeping usage stabilizes and admission continues without reloads or manual database maintenance. Short successful drain/restart tests do not exercise this failure mode. 5. Full-buffer behavior can drop new data and exhaust shared capacityThere are two independent retry policies:
Consequently, indefinite upload retries do not make the overall path lossless. Quarantined data also remains charged, and there is no per-destination reservation in the shared budget: one failing destination can consume capacity needed by healthy outputs. The shared byte budget is application-level accounting, not an OS-enforced filesystem quota. Separate Please document the intended retention/admission-loss policy and quarantine recovery procedure. Test capacity exhaustion with both healthy and failing destinations, including output removal/reconfiguration with queued data so it cannot silently strand capacity. 6. Throughput, resource usage, and cross-output contention need sustained-load validationBuffered mode requires exactly one worker per output, and the uploader handles at most one request per one-second timer callback. Please measure sustained throughput and backlog-drain time, including recovery after an outage, rather than just successful startup at high output counts. The shared-directory mutex covers source reads, JSON assembly, compression probes, and local persistence, not just short database operations. The HTTP upload itself runs outside that lock, but slow local I/O or expensive compression holds up other outputs sharing the directory. Startup/reload tests with many outputs do not establish steady-state isolation. The disk quota does not bound total memory or thread usage. Admission formats the complete incoming chunk before checking available space, retaining formatted records alongside an NDJSON copy; planning adds source copies, JSON candidates, and compression buffers. Even mostly idle workers wake for periodic housekeeping and count against cgroup PID limits or systemd Please test one failing destination alongside healthy ones under sustained traffic, a nearly full spool, and slow storage, then measure how quickly the backlog drains after the failure clears. 7. Recovery must handle corrupt sources and a latched uploader stop
This differs from the implemented quarantine path for corrupt request artifacts and from the PR's general description of corrupt-artifact handling. Please define a recovery policy that preserves damaged data for inspection, accounts for any undeliverable records and retained bytes, and allows unaffected queued data to progress. Add restart tests for both corrupt source metadata and corrupt source contents, not only gzip request artifacts. There is also a runtime recovery requirement: when Stopping may be the correct fail-closed behavior, but it needs a documented recovery procedure and an explicit unhealthy state. Please inject a transient local persistence failure, clear it, and verify that the prescribed recovery restores both queued delivery and new admission. 8. Disabled buffering does not leave the existing send path unchangedThe shared send helper adds payload metrics and applies the new Please document changes to the non-buffered path and validate it explicitly, including slow responses, read-idle timeouts, compression, and existing retry behavior. This is a compatibility concern rather than a reproduced regression; the default-off claim should distinguish unchanged batching from unchanged request behavior. The existing review's time-field typing finding also remains applicable: 9. Aside: investigate worker threads for hot outputs independently of batching
The existing plugin defaults to Compare the current configuration against workers on hot outputs, measuring main-loop responsiveness, delivered throughput, CPU, RSS, file descriptors, and thread count at representative output cardinality. Include token refresh/failure and repeated reloads. Use the worker-enabled existing plugin as a comparison for this PR so improvements from moving work off the main thread are not mistaken for batching gains. Generated with Pi using |

Summary
Add opt-in, durable whole-engine-chunk batching to
out_azure_logs_ingestion.The existing synchronous path remains the default. With buffering enabled, the output transactionally admits complete formatted engine chunks into a SQLite spool, combines whole chunks in FIFO order into exact gzip requests, and retries the persisted request bytes until Azure accepts them or the configured terminal policy quarantines them.
This implementation is designed to apply on top of the request payload metrics in #12392. The clean stacked branch is
