Ankur commented on HADOOP-2909:
-------------------------------

On second thoughts a crashed client would cause an IOException in Responder 
thread on a response write attempt. This should happen in 
ResponderThread.processResponse() at channel.write(call.response) (line 587) if 
the client has crashed, right ? In this case the connection is closed properly 
in the finally block.

So I don't see any issue with this patch :-)

> IPC server determines if a connection is idle or not by checking if the 
> connection does not have any IO activity for a predefined max idle time. An 
> idle connection will be closed even if the connection still has outstanding 
> requests or replies. This causes RPC failures when a server becomes slow or 
> if a request takes a long time to be served. In jira, I'd like to propose the 
> following changes to IPC idle management:
> 1. Add data structures to the IPC server that keep track of outstanding 
> requests.
> 2. IPC server does not close a connection that has outstanding 
> requests/replies even when it has no IO activities for a while.
> 3. The default client-side max idle time should be in several minutes not 1 
> second. 
> 4. The server-side max idle time should be greater than the client-side max 
> idle time, for example, twice of the client-side max idle time. So server 
> mainly deals with clients that are crashed without closing 
> its connections.
