This was required after updating to coroutines 1.3.0-RC. Every call to next() must be preceded by a call to hasNext()

The mapTo operator on channel is now deprecated. With out this refactor, the test would fail.

The outbound flow control handler has been refactored. It no longer spawns multiple jobs when applying backpressure and can properly handle superfluous invocations of the on ready handler runnable.

Looks like the failing test in CI could be unrelated to the code change. Its possible it has something to do with the dependency version bump.

com.github.[secure].krotoplus.coroutines.server.ServerCallServerStreamingTests > Server responds with error when scope cancelled exceptionally FAILED
    java.lang.IllegalStateException
        Caused by: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
            Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError

Tests seem consistently stable locally. @chris-blacker Could you verify your use case against this branch?
I'll work on sorting out the UnsatisfiedLinkError in the mean time.

A limited capacity didn't work? I am wondering if it's possible that the channel becomes a memory leak if jobs are added faster than the worker consumes them.

Thats a good catch. I must've changed it while debugging. I'll test it with the value reverted to CONFLATED.

This implementation is based off the native grpc util StreamObservers.copyWithFlowControl() which ensured each invocation of the onReadyHandler always ran. source

I am using CONFLATED and have no issues.

Good solution. I tested the new flow control in my setup and the issue has been fixed.

I think it is missing that the targetChannel is canceled in some situations. I tried canceling it here but this code was not being executed when I expected.
I have encountered that a client bidi call send hangs when the call is getting canceled in another thread because the channel is not canceled. This happened when the call is canceled while a send was pending in the call rendezvous outboundChannel. I think the rpc scope then somehow cleans up without canceling the channel, thus the send hangs.

for(handler in channel){
if(isCompleted.get()) break
handler(this)
}

Adding this here reduced the problem but didn't eliminate it. I guess there must be other paths for the scope to cancel.

       catch(ex: CancellationException) {
            targetChannel.cancel(ex)
            throw ex
        }

So the scope could cancellation can also be propagated from its parent under normal normal coroutine usage. This case was covered before because executing new launch on a cancelled scope would take care. Its hard to reproduce but Im trying a few things now.

In regards to the UnsatisfiedLinkError, it looks like the source of the issue is related to using the kotlinx-coroutines-debug artifact coupled with mockk. Details are outlined here. Ill temporarily comment out the dependency.

@chris-blacker I think I was able to reproduce your hanging client issue with this test. It turns out that the outbound message handler wasnt bound to normal channel cancellation. Thats been fixed in the latest changes. Since the actor wasnt bound, client coroutines would hang since one of their children would never complete.

Thanks for the changes. I think they go in the right direction but the hang-on-bidi-call-close issue is not fully resolved for me. I will investigate and give you more information and/or a failing test.

Using the coroutines debug probes might shed some light as to what is stuck in suspension in your use case

@blachris

I tried but I cannot not reproduce the hang-on-bidi-call-close issue outside of one specific stress scenario. And in that scenario it only happens during the shutdown and I can work around it. You can see my attempt here but the test passes fine.
I would say that the issue may be related to my application and this branch of Kroto+ works fine. How do you feel about advancing the branch to a release version eventually?

That’s good to hear. I can work on getting this merged and into a release today. There’s a few spots that need a little clean up first.
