Steve Loughran updated HADOOP-5933: ----------------------------------- Attachment: HADOOP-5933.patch This is the first solution, some extra diagnostics. It's main cost when the log is not set to debug is one extra reference. I don't really like the log settings changing program behaviour, so I'm not sure if anyone does want to check this patch in; it's just what I put together to track down my problems. The real problem is that the caching system isn't compatible with the users of DfsClient calling close() on their clients. > Make it harder to accidentally close a shared DFSClient > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5933 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5933 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fs > Affects Versions: 0.21.0 > Reporter: Steve Loughran > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HADOOP-5933.patch > > > Every so often I get stack traces telling me that DFSClient is closed, > usually in {{org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DFSClient.checkOpen() }} . The root cause > of this is usually that one thread has closed a shared fsclient while another > thread still has a reference to it. If the other thread then asks for a new > client it will get one -and the cache repopulated- but if has one already, > then I get to see a stack trace. > It's effectively a race condition between clients in different threads. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
