Summary

  • contain synchronous CQL, admin, and continuous-request setup failures within the protected setup paths changed here
  • cover initial admission plus retry and reprepare callback paths
  • complete result stages, cancel reserved stream IDs and scheduled work, and return throttler permits exactly once
  • drain concurrency-throttler readiness callbacks iteratively without common-path queue allocations

Fixes #980.

Scope

This PR owns synchronous setup-failure cleanup in CqlRequestHandler and the directly related admin, continuous pre-write, and concurrency-throttler paths changed by this diff. For the main CQL path, request timeout accounting must still begin before throttler registration, and a registration failure after admission must run normal terminal cleanup; those are part of #980, not scope exclusions.

ConcurrencyLimitingRequestThrottler contains callback propagation so one failed request cannot break an unrelated request's completion or stop draining already-admitted callbacks. It intentionally does not try to terminalize an arbitrary Throttled callback: the interface exposes no generic completion operation, and a callback may already have returned its permit before throwing. Handler-level containment outside the protected paths changed here remains follow-up work.

The following broader lifecycle hardening is intentionally deferred:

Tests

  • Java 11: mvn -pl core -DskipITs test
  • 3,953 core unit tests passed (1 skipped); 76 Reactive Streams TCK tests passed (24 skipped).

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

CqlRequestHandler routes setup, retry, reprepare, speculative execution, cancellation, and timeout failures through terminal cleanup. Throttler signaling tracks admission and prevents duplicate release. Continuous and admin handlers apply similar cleanup rules. ConcurrencyLimitingRequestThrottler drains reentrant callbacks iteratively. Tests cover these failure paths, timeout cleanup, cancellation, delayed admission, and callback draining.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 55447

The change improves containment of throttled request setup failures, but retry handling can still dereference an invalid retry statement, omit the triggering error from tracking, leak throttler permits when callbacks or tracking fail, or stop query-plan progression after a node-level exception. These are bounded but concrete correctness and availability risks, so the PR is not merge-ready until they are fixed or explicitly accepted.

The containment itself looks right for CqlRequestHandler: setFinalError -> result.completeExceptionally -> cancelScheduledTasks() does cancel the timeout #980 complains about, and wasAdmitted returns the permit exactly once.

My one substantive point is scope: Fixes #980 overstates it. #980 describes the escape generally, and two other onThrottleReady implementations still rethrow from below this frame, so the exception can still leave register() and session.execute() — including straight through the new catch.

The remaining #965 findings that this PR doesn't touch are now #1009 (a leaked stream-id bit in InFlightHandler, CqlPrepareHandler stranding its prepareAsync future, and the write-coalescer shutdown gate).

Prior round's four points all look genuinely addressed. What's left is mostly outside this diff:

  • RateLimitingRequestThrottler.drain() still calls onThrottleReady() unguarded inside its loop. A throw aborts the loop and skips the trailing reschedule, and register() only schedules a drain when the queue is empty — so the throttler never drains again, silently (the throw dies in the Netty ScheduledFuture). Same class of escape as #980, untouched here.
  • GraphRequestHandler (async graph) is still the pre-PR shape: unguarded onThrottleReady/sendRequest, and !(error instanceof RequestThrottlingException) at L513 instead of an admission flag. #949/#1013/#1014 don't cover it — and it's one of the handlers that can still throw into the drain above.
  • Narrow: when scheduleTimeout() fails it completes result directly (L267), so after admission sendRequestInternal returns at L408 and no signal* ever fires — permit held for the session's lifetime.

1116-1126: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

verdict.getRetryDecision() stays outside the guarded region.

Line 1117 and line 1126 call getRetryDecision() outside the try block. A throwing RetryVerdict implementation still escapes processRetryVerdict. onResponse catches it at line 949, but onFailure calls processRetryVerdict at line 1193 with no catch, so the throw escapes into the Netty callback and the request never completes. Read the decision once inside the guard.

Proposed fix

-      if (verdict.getRetryDecision() == RetryDecision.RETRY_SAME
-          || verdict.getRetryDecision() == RetryDecision.RETRY_NEXT) {

408-416: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

The CancellationException guard leaks the throttler permit.

terminalSetupFailure is set only when abortGlobalRequestOrChosenCallback returns true, which means this frame completed chosenCallback itself. A CancellationException raised by user cancel() cannot reach that branch, because cancel() completes chosenCallback first and signalCancel already ran. So the guard only excludes a CancellationException thrown by setup code such as getMessage or createPayload. In that case no throttler signal is emitted and the permit is never returned. Signal cancel for that case.

Proposed fix
       } catch (Throwable t) {
         recordError(node, t);
         if (activeExecutionsCount.decrementAndGet() == 0) {
-          if (abortGlobalRequestOrChosenCallback(t) && !(t instanceof CancellationException)) {
+          if (abortGlobalRequestOrChosenCallback(t)) {
             terminalSetupFailure = t;
           }
         } else {

and at the signalling site:

       if (terminalSetupFailure != null) {
-        throttler.signalError(this, terminalSetupFailure);
+        if (terminalSetupFailure instanceof CancellationException) {
+          throttler.signalCancel(this);

Rename the test to match its assertions.

The name states that the failure is not propagated. The assertions state that the returned stage fails with the same exception. The contract under test is that the delayed setup failure completes the owning request and does not escape through the admitting caller. Use a name that states this.

nit — Only set(true)/get() here too, and you switched the admin handler's to volatile boolean this round, so the two now differ. (throttlerReleased does need the CAS.)

Route synchronous CQL, admin, and continuous-request setup failures through terminal completion, including retry and reprepare callbacks. Cancel reserved stream IDs and scheduled timeouts, and distinguish rejected, admitted, and cancelled requests so throttler permits are returned exactly once.

Drain concurrency-throttler readiness callbacks iteratively to prevent recursive failure chains and continue admitting queued work after a callback fails.

Use a neutral exception type here. RequestThrottlingException is significant to releaseThrottler's branching, so it couples this setup-failure test to unrelated throttler-rejection semantics. new RuntimeException("mock failure") states the intent, as in should_not_propagate_delayed_request_setup_failure.

- Around line 174-177: In the test setup around
requestIdGenerator.getDecoratedStatement, replace the RequestThrottlingException
failure with a neutral RuntimeException while preserving the existing mock
behavior and failure message. Keep throttler-specific exception coverage
separate from this delayed request setup-failure test.
- Line 224: Update the CqlRequestHandlerTest verification for the throttler
outcome to assert that none of signalError, signalCancel, signalSuccess, or
signalRequest is invoked after throttlerReleased is set before setFinalError;
retain the existing no-signal expectation while covering all four signal
methods.

getRetryDecision() is read three times on an untrusted RetryVerdict. If an implementation returns different values across reads, the switch can enter RETRY_SAME/RETRY_NEXT with retryStatement still null, and sendRequest then dereferences a null statement. Cache the decision once. Also, the guarded failure path returns before recordError/trackNodeError, so the server error that triggered the retry is dropped from errors and from the tracker.

Proposed fix
-      Statement<?> retryStatement = null;
-      if (verdict.getRetryDecision() == RetryDecision.RETRY_SAME
-          || verdict.getRetryDecision() == RetryDecision.RETRY_NEXT) {
-        try {
-          retryStatement = verdict.getRetryRequest(statement);
-        } catch (Throwable t) {
-          handleRequestSetupFailure(statement, t, node, execution);
-          return;
-        }
-      }
