Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-3620:
-------------------------------------

As far as I can see, the resolution happens with the global FSNamesystem lock 
held. Is that true? Dhruba had a concern there and I don't see a nice way to 
handle that either. The patch looks good otherwise (subject to hudson passing 
it and successfully running MapReduce jobs with this patch).

> Release 0.18.0 removes the rpc timeout. So the namenode is ok to resolve a 
> datanode's network location when the datanode registers. This could remove 
> quite a lot of unnecessary code in both datanode and namenode to handle 
> asynchronous network location resolution and avoid many potential bugs.
