             Summary: Improve Thread handling
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-1907
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1907
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: server
            Reporter: Rakesh R
            Assignee: Rakesh R
             Fix For: 3.5.0


Server has many critical threads running and co-ordinating each other like  
RequestProcessor chains et. When going through each threads, most of them 
having the similar structure like:
{code}
public void run() {
        try {
              while(running)
                   // processing logic
              }
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            LOG.error("Unexpected interruption", e);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            LOG.error("Unexpected exception", e);
        }
        LOG.info("...exited loop!");
}
{code}

>From the design I could see, there could be a chance of silently leaving the 
>thread by swallowing the exception. If this happens in the production, the 
>server would get hanged forever and would not be able to deliver its role. Now 
>its hard for the management tool to detect this.

The idea of this JIRA is to discuss and imprv.
