> HDFS-9668 pointed out the issues around the DN lock being a point of
> contention some time ago, but that Jira went in a direction of creating a new
> FSDataset implementation which is very risky, and activity on the Jira has
> stalled for a few years now. Edit: Looks like HDFS-9668 eventually went in a
> similar direction to what I was thinking, so I will review that Jira in more
> detail to see if this one is necessary.
> I feel there could be significant gains by moving to a ReentrantReadWrite
> lock within the DN. The current implementation is simply a ReentrantLock so
> any locker blocks all others.
> Once place I think a read lock would benefit us significantly, is when the DN
> is serving a lot of small blocks and there are jobs which perform a lot of
> reads. The start of reading any blocks right now takes the lock, but if we
> moved this to a read lock, many reads could do this at the same time.
> The first conservative step, would be to change the current lock and then
> make all accesses to it obtain the write lock. That way, we should keep the
> current behaviour and then we can selectively move some lock accesses to the
> readlock in separate Jiras.
> I would appreciate any thoughts on this, and also if anyone has attempted it
> before and found any blockers.
