Doug Cutting updated HADOOP-1570: --------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available) I just committed this. Thanks, Arun! > Add a per-job configuration knob to control loading of native hadoop > libraries > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1570 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1570 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: io > Affects Versions: 0.12.3, 0.13.0 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Arun C Murthy > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-1570_1_20070709.patch, > HADOOP-1570_2_20070713.patch > > > As it exists today, native-hadoop libraries are loaded automatically if > libhadoop.so is present; however we have sporadically seen issues > (HADOOP-1545) since native direct-buffers aren't very well understood. The > only way to switch off usage of these is to remove the native libraries which > is a maintenence issue for large clusters... > Hence I propose we add a per-job config knob: {{hadoop.native.lib}} (set to > {{true}} by default) which can be used to control usage of native libraries > even when the libraries are present e.g. we can have hadoop installed with > native libraries present and then use this knob to switch off their usage in > rare cases we see issues with them; thus aiding maintenence. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
