Todd Lipcon commented on HADOOP-9183:
-------------------------------------
I think this patch re-introduces a race. If I add the following sleep statement:
{code}
ZooKeeper zk = new ZooKeeper(zkHostPort, zkSessionTimeout, watcher);
+ try {
+ Thread.sleep(1000);
+ } catch (InterruptedException e) {
+ Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
+ }
watcher.setZooKeeperRef(zk);
{code}
Then the tests all fail.
We need the watcher to block any "forwarding" until the zk reference has been
set.
