📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The failure handler now queues drained spans during reporting and processes them in its run loop. The dynamic stream no longer enables explicit buffering. Tests verify asynchronous cleanup and cancellation behavior.

Changes

Region cleanup flow

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Queue drained spans for asynchronous cleanup logservice/logpuller/region_failure_handler.go	Report queues drained spans in errCache. Run retrieves them and invokes onTableDrained.
Remove buffering and validate handler lifecycle logservice/logpuller/region_event_sink.go, logservice/logpuller/region_request_scheduler_test.go, logservice/logpuller/subscription_client_test.go	The dynamic stream uses default buffering. Tests run the failure handler asynchronously and verify termination with context.Canceled.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9b412

During shutdown, queued drained spans may be skipped, leaving stream and registry state behind and allowing further error reporting. The PR is not merge-ready until shutdown handling drains pending spans safely.

Poem

I hop through the handler, steady and bright,
Drained spans wait in a queue overnight.
The run loop cleans them, one by one,
Buffering fades beneath the sun.
Cancellation closes the gate—
A tidy trail for rabbits to navigate.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Drain queued spans before shutdown.

If Report queues a drained span and context cancellation reaches Run before handleCachedErrors runs, Run returns without calling onTableDrained. The dynamic-stream path and span registry entry then remain registered. The scheduler can still report an error while shutdown races with the handler, so this is reachable. Coordinate shutdown with Report and process all pending drained spans before returning.
