Chris Nauroth created HADOOP-9674: ------------------------------------- Summary: RPC#Server#start does not block until server is fully initialized and listening Key: HADOOP-9674 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9674 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: ipc Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.2.0 Reporter: Chris Nauroth Priority: Minor
This problem was originally mentioned in discussion on HADOOP-8980. When calling {{RPC#Server#start}}, initialization of the server's internal {{Listener}} and {{Reader}} threads happens in the background. This initialization is not guaranteed to complete by the time the caller returns from {{RPC#Server#start}}. This may be misleading to a caller that expects the server has been fully initialized. This problem sometimes manifests as a test failure in {{TestRPC#testStopsAllThreads}}. This test looks at the stack frames of all running threads, expecting to find the {{Listener}} and {{Reader}} threads, but sometimes it doesn't find them. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
