---------------------------------
Summary: Possible race condition from Self-spilling bags
registering with SpillableMemoryManager
Key: PIG-5390
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-5390
Project: Pig
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Koji Noguchi
Assignee: Koji Noguchi
This is a follow up from PIG-5380 where [~rohini] pointed out

I think same change is required in InternalSortedBag as well as code is exactly
same and it can spill too -
https://github.com/apache/pig/blob/trunk/src/org/apache/pig/data/InternalSortedBag.java#L133
. We most likely haven't seen issues with it as the probability could be very
less as it will proactively spill if it exceeds cached memory limit.

Looking at the history and the source, this is a critical bug given all these
self-spilling bags are designed on the premise that no other threads would
touch them. Comment in the source clearly say
{code}
* This bag is not registered with SpillableMemoryManager. It calculates
* the number of tuples to hold in memory and spill pro-actively into files."
{code}
