Josh Elser updated HDFS-5856:
-----------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 3.0.0)
Target Version/s: 3.0.0
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
A patch that checks for a non-null message on the Exception before calling
String methods on that message. Lifted the "network-related" conditional into
its own method and added a quick test to ensure we identify the
"network-related" exceptions as intended.
> DataNode.checkDiskError might throw NPE

> Key: HDFS-5856
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5856
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: datanode
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0
> Reporter: Josh Elser

>
> Running a small 2.2.0 cluster with a heavy workload. I noticed in the
> DataNode log that when faced with network exceptions, I would sometimes get a
> NullPointerException from checkDiskError.
> Looking at the code, if the Exception that is handed to checkDiskError
> contains a null message, the checks that try to identify if the Exception is
> network-related will throw a NPE.
