Daryn Sharp created HADOOP-11019: ------------------------------------ Summary: Queued IPC calls are not aborted if the connection drops Key: HADOOP-11019 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11019 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: ipc Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0 Reporter: Daryn Sharp Assignee: Daryn Sharp
Once a call is read from the wire and queued, it will be executed even if the connection has already dropped. If the client closes the connection due to timeout, perhaps because the server is overloaded, the client's retry will only exacerbate the problem. One specific example is DNs with large block reports overwhelming an already unhealthy NN. Ideally calls should be cancelled when the connection is dropped and/or connection state should be checked when the call is extracted from the callq, prior to decoding and invoking the call. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
