----------------------------------

             Summary: Improve error handling of receiver task failures
                 Key: FLINK-1958
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1958
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Distributed Runtime
    Affects Versions: master
            Reporter: Ufuk Celebi


Currently, receiver task failures silently fail.

We need the following behaviour:
* Sender keeps going. May be back-pressured when no receiver pulls the data any more.
* Sender may be cancelled by JobManager
* Partition stays sane
* Netty channel needs to be closed
* Transfer needs to be canceled by a cancel message (receiver to sender)
