Describe the issue this Pull Request addresses

FileSystemBasedLockProvider creates a HoodieStorage instance in its constructor but never closes it in the close() method. Since HoodieStorage implements Closeable and holds underlying filesystem connections, this causes a resource leak every time the lock provider is closed.

Summary and Changelog

Fixed a resource leak in FileSystemBasedLockProvider.close() by ensuring HoodieStorage is always closed.

  • FileSystemBasedLockProvider.java: Added a finally block in close() to call storage.close() after the lock file deletion attempt. IOException from storage.close() is caught and logged as a warning to avoid masking the original exception.

Impact

No public API or user-facing change. Prevents filesystem connection accumulation in long-running jobs using the filesystem-based lock provider.

Risk Level

low — Only affects resource cleanup; no functional locking logic changed.

Documentation Update

none

Pinging for an initial review. This PR fixes a genuine resource leak: FileSystemBasedLockProvider creates a HoodieStorage (which holds underlying filesystem connections and implements Closeable) in its constructor but never closes it in close(). The fix is a one-liner — calling storage.close() inside the existing close() method so the resource is released every time the lock provider is torn down.

Would appreciate a review from a committer with write access to apache/hudi (@vinothchandrasekar / @alexeykudinkin / @danny0405 / @nsivabalan).

storage.close();
} catch (IOException e) {

CI Build Failures — Master Branch Issue (not this PR)

The Java CI build failures on this PR are not caused by our code changes. Investigation shows this is a master branch build issue introduced by commit d3e0201 ("fix(common): FutureUtils:allOf should always throw root cause exception", merged 2026-04-15T22:30Z).

Evidence:

  • The master branch CI run for d3e0201 (run 24481746190) shows the same "Build Project" step failures in test-common-and-other-modules and test-spark-java-tests-part2 jobs
  • Our code changes touch completely unrelated files (DFSPropertiesConfiguration.java / HiveIncrementalPuller.java / FileSystemBasedLockProvider.java / SqlFileBasedSource.java) — none of which interact with FutureUtils
  • The last successful PR CI run before d3e0201 (nsivabalan's run at 21:53 UTC same day) passed all 53/53 jobs with identical matrix configuration
  • Build failures occur in ~83–111 seconds (a full Maven build normally takes 340s+), consistent with an early Maven resolution/plugin failure rather than a compilation error in our code

The CI situation is being tracked. Once the master build stabilises, a re-run of CI on this PR should pass.

cc @vinothchandrasekar @alexeykudinkin @danny0405 @nsivabalan — would appreciate a re-run once the master build issue is resolved.

@danny0405 Thank you for merging #18457 and #18467!

This PR (#18461) fixes a HoodieStorage resource leak in FileSystemBasedLockProvider.close() — the storage object was never closed. Branch synced with latest master, fresh CI triggered (run 24512491429). Would appreciate a review!

CI Re-triggered After Master Fix

Master has advanced past the broken d3e020132a commit (the FutureUtils:allOf change that broke Spark CI). Additionally, PRs #18457 and #18467 from this series have already been merged into master.

This branch has been synced with the updated master and an empty commit was pushed to re-trigger CI. CI results on this run should be clean.

Hi @danny0405, all 55 CI checks are now passing ✅ for this PR.

This fix ensures HoodieStorage in FileSystemBasedLockProvider is properly closed in a finally block to prevent resource leaks even when exceptions occur.

Would you be able to review and merge when you get a chance? Thanks!

Thanks for contributing! The change is safe and follows good resource management practice. One thing worth noting: HoodieHadoopStorage.close() is intentionally a no-op to avoid closing the JVM-cached Hadoop FileSystem, so the actual resource leak fix may not have impact with the default storage backend today — see inline comment for details.

throw new HoodieLockException(generateLogStatement(LockState.FAILED_TO_RELEASE), e);
} finally {
try {
storage.close();

🤖 Worth noting that HoodieHadoopStorage.close() is intentionally a no-op (it avoids closing the cached Hadoop FileSystem). So this won't actually release resources with the default storage implementation today. Still reasonable to add for correctness with potential future storage backends, but wanted to flag this so the impact is clear.

Style & Readability Review — one minor suggestion to simplify the log message.

try {
storage.close();
} catch (IOException closeEx) {
log.warn("Failed to close HoodieStorage in FileSystemBasedLockProvider", closeEx);

🤖 nit: could you simplify the log message to just 'Failed to close HoodieStorage'? The logger already provides the class context automatically.

LGTM — clean fix for a genuine resource leak. The finally block correctly ensures storage.close() runs regardless of the deleteFile outcome, and the caught IOException avoids masking the original exception.
