Conversation
When building a ProcessorSlotChain, singleton slots (isSingleton=true) are shared across all build() calls. Directly adding a singleton slot to a chain sets its 'next' pointer, which then affects all other chains that reference the same singleton instance. Fix: always create a new instance of each slot via reflection in DefaultSlotChainBuilder.build(), so each chain has independent next pointers regardless of whether the slot is a singleton. Fixes alibaba#3007

slot对象只能用spi加载吧。关键在于原型对象前面如果是单例对象，不同的链修改的是同一个指针，要让每条链修改不同的指针才能解决这个问题。 |

Thanks for the feedback! You are right, the core issue is that different chains share the same slot instance and its This PR fixes it by using reflection ( SPI loading is still used as the entry point for discovering slot types ( |

这样做的话会破坏单例slot对象的共享状态。如果期望在单例对象中缓存一些数据，但是由于每次创建新的对象，会破坏这种共享状态，这与期望不符。我尝试过使用原型对象包裹单例对象，并通过代理来解决这个问题。但是尝试后发现通过代理触发方法后，只能触发第一个节点，从而导致整调用链路断裂。因为next指针只能保存在Wrapper对象中，而不是delegate对象中。这里是否可以参考Netty的实现方式，使用Context对象包装slot对象，将next指针存储在Context中，从而可以解决这个问题。我有询问过第一种方案的意见，但是官方没有回复我。期待你的建议。 |

@weixq709 感谢详细的反馈！你说得很对，反射创建新实例确实会破坏单例slot的共享状态。 我分析了当前所有内置slot的实例字段：
当前内置slot都没有需要跨chain共享的实例状态，所以反射方案在现有代码下是安全的。 你提出的Context/Wrapper模式（参考Netty的ChannelPipeline）确实是更好的长期方案：每个slot包裹在一个携带自己 对于这个PR，我建议：
你觉得这个方案可以接受吗？ |
|
我觉得还是需要官方认可这个方案。我刚参与开源，没有太多的经验。我这里指的是开发人员自己定义的单例slot如果需要缓存一些数据可能会破坏共享状态的问题，内置的组件不会出现这个问题。我的建议是等待官方反馈，认可这个方案后再进行修复，我们应该尽量不去引入一些新的问题。 |

@weixq709 Thanks for the detailed analysis and the Netty context wrapper idea! You're absolutely right — the v1 reflection approach ( I've pushed a v2 that still uses reflection for now, but I think your Context wrapper proposal is the cleaner long-term solution. To make sure I understand correctly, you're suggesting something like: // Wrapper holds the next pointer, slot remains singleton
class SlotContext<T> extends AbstractLinkedProcessorSlot<T> {
private final ProcessorSlot<T> delegate;
private AbstractLinkedProcessorSlot<?> next; // per-chain
SlotContext(ProcessorSlot<T> delegate) {
this.delegate = delegate;
}
@Override
public void entry(Context context, ResourceWrapper resourceWrapper, ...) {
delegate.entry(context, resourceWrapper, ...);
}
}This way the singleton slot's internal state is preserved, and only the A few questions:
Let me know if you'd like me to implement the Context wrapper approach as a separate PR, or if you'd prefer to drive it since it was your idea. |
|
@weixq709 完全同意你的判断。对于用户自定义的单例 slot，反射创建新实例确实可能破坏共享缓存状态，这不应该由框架静默引入。 采纳你的建议，当前方案先 hold 住，等官方对 #3007 的修复方向给出意见后再推进。我整理一下目前讨论的两种方案供官方参考： 方案 A — 反射创建独立实例（当前 PR）
方案 B — Context/Wrapper 模式（参考 Netty ChannelPipeline）
如果官方倾向方案 B，我可以基于当前代码继续实现，也欢迎你来主导这部分（毕竟是你的思路）。先等官方反馈再动手。 |

Hi @sczyh30, this PR fixes #3007 where different ProcessorSlotChains share the same slot instance's After discussion with @weixq709, we identified two possible approaches: Approach A — Reflection-based independent instances (current PR)
Approach B — Context/Wrapper pattern (inspired by Netty ChannelPipeline)
We'd appreciate your guidance on which direction is preferred, or if there's another approach the team recommends. Happy to implement either way. Thank you! |
|
@weixq709 Hi, following up on our discussion about the Context/Wrapper approach vs reflection. I had some questions about the Wrapper pattern in my earlier comments — would appreciate your thoughts when you have a moment. Thanks! |
|
Hi, gentle follow-up on this PR. It fixes an issue where ProcessorSlotChain instances share the same slot objects, which can cause concurrency issues. The fix ensures each chain gets independent slot instances. Would appreciate a review. Thank you! |

Thanks for working on #3007. I reproduced the bug on the current Baseline regression: with shared predecessor B and per-chain successors A1/A2, building chain 2 makes chain 1 execute The PoC keeps the SPI-managed delegate instance unchanged (so singleton remains singleton), gives each chain its own wrapper-owned It passed:
This avoids reflective construction and avoids changing |
I have already seen the message you left. You can submit your code to the branch and then simply make a pull request. If the unit tests pass, the official personnel will review your code and, after approving the implementation plan, they will merge your code into the main branch. Or you can also seek the advice of the official developers first, and then make the modifications. This way, you can avoid submitting code that fails to meet the expected results. I have already consulted @EvanYao826 for suggestions on the solution to this problem, but no reply has been received yet. |
|
Thanks for the guidance. Since #3616 and #3620 already overlap, I would prefer not to open a third competing PR.
@EvanYao826, would you be willing to incorporate the tested context-wrapper refinements into one existing PR? The local PoC adds source-bound scoped context, restores it in finally, and covers nested calls, repeated propagation, exception cleanup, concurrency, and actual entry/exit behavior.
I can provide the patch or help adapt the tests. It would also be good to consolidate on the repository’s current default 1.8 branch before requesting maintainer review.

Summary
The fix correctly gives each chain independent slot instances, but it ignores the @SPI(isSingleton=true) contract for custom slots and, more importantly, its reflection fallback silently returns the original singleton slot when construction fails, reintroducing issue #3007. A regression test covering a singleton slot followed by a non-singleton slot is also missing.

Creating a fresh instance of every slot per chain ignores the @SPI(isSingleton=true) contract. Built-in singleton slots (StatisticSlot, FlowSlot, DegradeSlot, SystemSlot, AuthoritySlot, LogSlot, DefaultCircuitBreakerSlot) hold no required shared instance state, but custom singleton slots that rely on shared instance-level state will be silently copied per chain, breaking their shared-state semantics.

Using reflection (getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance()) for every slot on every build() adds overhead and will fail for slots whose no-arg constructor is not accessible. Although build() is invoked once per resource, this approach also bypasses any initialization or lifecycle guarantees provided by SpiLoader.

The catch block returns the original SPI singleton instance when reflective construction fails. This silently reintroduces issue #3007 for that slot because its 'next' pointer is still shared across all ProcessorSlotChain instances, so one chain build will corrupt the topology of previously built chains.

Thanks for the thorough review — I agree with all four points, and they match the concerns raised earlier in this thread (see @weixq709's comments on May 19–20). Adding a few notes from the discussion and local experiments, since they bear directly on what the fix should look like:
For maintainers' visibility, here is where the discussion has landed on the two alternative designs:
@EvanYao826 — I offered on Aug 13 to fold this PoC into your PR to avoid a third competing one, but haven't heard back; no worries at all if you've been busy. Given that the review above formally blocks the current approach, unless you are already reworking it I will go ahead and submit the context-based implementation against the @sczyh30 @weixq709 — a maintainer decision between these designs would unblock both PRs. The trade-off in one line: reflection (this PR) is the smallest diff but breaks the singleton contract and its fallback silently re-introduces the bug; wrapper + scoped successor context preserves the SPI contract at the cost of wrapper visibility during traversal and a small per-invocation indirection. |

Problem
When building a
ProcessorSlotChain, singleton slots (isSingleton=truein@Spiannotation) are shared across allbuild()calls. Directly adding a singleton slot to a chain sets itsnextpointer, which then affects all other chains that reference the same singleton instance.Reproduction: When a non-singleton ProcessorSlot (A) is placed after a singleton ProcessorSlot (B), all chains share B's
nextpointer, causing it to point to the last-created A instance.Fix
In
DefaultSlotChainBuilder.build(), always create a new instance of each slot via reflection (getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance()) instead of directly using the SPI-loaded instance. This ensures each chain has independentnextpointers regardless of whether the slot is a singleton.Changes
DefaultSlotChainBuilder.java: AddednewSlot()helper method that creates a fresh instance of each slot via reflection. Falls back to the original instance if creation fails (e.g., no default constructor).
