Problem

The log_key extraction paths in out_s3 and out_chronicle allocate a scratch buffer of bytes + bytes / 4 once and never grow it. When the selected log_key value is a non-string (number/array/object) whose JSON encoding does not fit in the remaining space, flb_msgpack_to_json() fails and the code simply breaks out of the loop:

ret = flb_msgpack_to_json(val_buf + val_offset, msgpack_size - val_offset, &val, ...);
if (ret < 0) {
    break;
}

As a result the oversized value is silently dropped (and, depending on timing, could previously be emitted truncated). This is a pre-existing data-loss bug independent of any formatting change.

Fix

Grow the scratch buffer and retry the conversion until the value fits, so an oversized log_key value is neither truncated nor dropped. The retry also guards the remaining size so flb_msgpack_to_json() is never called with a zero-length buffer.

  • out_s3: on allocation failure it uses the function's existing alloc_error path.
  • out_chronicle: on allocation failure it frees and returns NULL.

Testing

  • Builds cleanly with -DFLB_OUT_S3=On -DFLB_OUT_CHRONICLE=On (full fluent-bit binary).

Context

Surfaced during review of #12129 / #12133. #12133 makes flb_msgpack_to_json() signal truncation as a negative value (matching its contract); this PR makes these two callers actually recover from it. The two PRs are independent — this fix works whether the helper returns 0 or -1 on overflow (it checks ret <= 0).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Fixed handling of oversized log values for Chronicle and S3 outputs.
    • Large values are now preserved in full during serialization instead of being truncated or dropped.
    • When processing cannot continue because additional memory is unavailable, the data is safely retried rather than sent as an incomplete payload.

📝 Walkthrough

Chronicle and S3 now resize scratch buffers and retry JSON serialization when log-key values exceed the initial capacity. Allocation failures free the buffer and abort extraction. The Chronicle runtime test verifies complete serialization of oversized values.

Changes: Log-key serialization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Grow-and-retry JSON serialization
plugins/out_chronicle/chronicle.c, plugins/out_s3/s3.c
Both plugins grow scratch buffers for oversized non-BIN/STR log-key values. They retry serialization until it fits or allocation fails. Failure cleanup prevents partial output.
Oversized log-key runtime validation
tests/runtime/out_chronicle.c
The test now verifies that a 256-character escaped value is serialized completely and that neighboring records remain present.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4d186

Oversized records are handled normally, but unchecked buffer growth can still make serialization unsafe for sufficiently large supported chunks and should be fixed before merge.

P2 Badge Return NULL when S3 log_key growth fails

For S3 chunks using log_key, if a later non-string value needs this buffer growth and flb_realloc() fails after earlier records have already advanced val_offset, setting alloc_error only exits the decoder loop; the function then falls through and creates an SDS from the partial val_buf whenever val_offset != 0. The flush path treats that non-NULL chunk as data to upload, so the current and remaining records can be dropped while the output reports success; free the buffer and return NULL on this allocation failure instead of falling through with partial data.

Good catch (both @coderabbitai and @chatgpt-codex-connector) — fixed: on alloc_error out_s3 now frees the scratch buffer and returns NULL after destroying the decoder, instead of returning a partial payload. (out_chronicle already returned NULL on growth failure.) Pushed.

@vitaly-sinev Thanks for fixing this. Returning NULL after releasing the scratch buffer and decoder prevents emitting a partial payload on allocation failure.

Retry backlog chunks after conversion failure.

The live path returns FLB_RETRY, but this path continues to s3_put_object() after columnar conversion fails. It can store JSON under a Parquet or Arrow format. If generic compression fails, it can also send an uncompressed body while create_headers() still advertises Content-Encoding. Return failure and retain the chunk for retry, or update the per-request format and headers before fallback.

As per coding guidelines, verify backlog/live-ingestion parity.

Reject unrepresentable scratch-buffer sizes before allocation. Both extractors compute bytes + bytes / 4 and double msgpack_size without checked arithmetic. If either calculation wraps, the buffer can be smaller than the data that the extractor copies or serializes.

The S3 extractor receives event_chunk->size, not upload_chunk_size, so the configured upload limits do not bound this calculation. S3 also accumulates val_offset across records. A wrapped growth size can make the next msgpack_size - val_offset calculation wrap and pass an invalid destination pointer and length to flb_msgpack_to_json.

Reject the initial capacity when bytes + bytes / 4 is not representable. Before each flb_realloc, reject growth when msgpack_size > SIZE_MAX / 2. Apply both checks in plugins/out_chronicle/chronicle.c and plugins/out_s3/s3.c.

Rebased onto the latest master. This surfaced a direct conflict with the recent log_key refactor, which added the runtime test format_with_log_key_conversion_error. That test encodes the opposite contract to this PR:

  • master today: when a log_key value's JSON form does not fit the extraction buffer (sized bytes + bytes/4), flb_pack_msgpack_extract_log_key() returns an error, the whole batch aborts, and the chunk is retried. But the retry recomputes the same buffer size from the same record, so the value overflows again on every attempt — the chunk stalls and is eventually dropped once the retry limit is hit. The oversized value is still lost.
  • this PR: the extraction buffer grows and retries in place, so the oversized value is serialized in full and the record is delivered. No truncation, no drop.

Because the two contracts are mutually exclusive, I updated that test rather than leaving it asserting the behavior this PR removes. It is renamed to format_with_log_key_oversized_value and now checks that the oversized middle record is serialized intact (all 256 escaped control characters present) alongside its neighbours. The genuine failure path is preserved: on an actual allocation failure out_s3 frees the scratch buffer and returns NULL (no partial payload), and out_chronicle returns CHRONICLE_LOG_KEY_ERROR.

Verified locally: flb-rt-out_chronicle and the out_s3/out_chronicle plugin builds pass.

If maintainers prefer the "reject and retry" semantics from the refactor instead, I'm happy to adjust — but note that, as merged, that path does not actually recover the oversized record. Feedback welcome on which contract you'd like to keep.

The log_key extraction buffer was sized bytes + bytes/4 and never grown. A
non-string log_key value whose JSON form exceeded the remaining space made
flb_msgpack_to_json() fail; the code only broke out of the loop, so the
oversized value was silently dropped (and, before that, could be emitted
truncated).

Grow the scratch buffer and retry the conversion until the value fits, so
the value is neither truncated nor dropped. The guard on the remaining size
also avoids calling flb_msgpack_to_json() with a zero-length buffer.

A concurrent log_key refactor on master added a runtime test asserting
that a log_key value whose JSON form overflows the extraction buffer is
reported as a conversion error and dropped (the whole batch aborts and
retries). This branch changes that behavior: the extraction buffer grows
and retries so the oversized value is serialized in full instead of being
dropped or truncated.

Rename the test to format_with_log_key_oversized_value and assert the
oversized middle record survives intact (all 256 escaped control
characters present) alongside its neighbours.

Rebased onto the latest master (the log_key refactor merged cleanly on top). Verified locally: the out_s3 plugin builds and flb-rt-out_chronicle passes, including format_with_log_key_oversized_value.

Gentle ping for review. Also still open to feedback on the design point from my earlier comment: this PR grows the extraction buffer and serializes an oversized log_key value in full, whereas the merged refactor treats the overflow as an error and retries the chunk (which, as written, re-overflows each retry). Happy to align with whichever contract you prefer.
