Tim Armstrong resolved IMPALA-5102.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Later

I think this is too open-ended. We generally haven't seen problems from 
stemming from this enough to warrant a global solution.

>                 Key: IMPALA-5102
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-5102
>             Project: IMPALA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Backend
>    Affects Versions: Impala 2.9.0
>            Reporter: Michael Ho
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: crash

> Impalad uses noexcept API of boost library whenever possible. However, there 
> are certain API which don't implement the noexcept variant. One example of 
> this is the thread creation interface:
> {noformat}
> void Thread::StartThread(const ThreadFunctor& functor) {
>   DCHECK(thread_manager.get() != nullptr)
>       << "Thread created before InitThreading called";
>   DCHECK(tid_ == UNINITIALISED_THREAD_ID) << "StartThread called twice";
>   Promise<int64_t> thread_started;
>   thread_.reset(
>       new thread(&Thread::SuperviseThread, name_, category_, functor, 
> &thread_started));
>   // TODO: This slows down thread creation although not enormously. To make 
> this faster,
>   // consider delaying thread_started.Get() until the first call to tid(), 
> but bear in
>   // mind that some coordination is required between SuperviseThread() and 
> this to make
>   // sure that the thread is still available to have its tid set.
>   tid_ = thread_started.Get();
>   VLOG(2) << "Started thread " << tid_ << " - " << category_ << ":" << name_;
> }
> {noformat}
> We have been bitten by this uncaught exception in the past such as 
> IMPALA-3104. This kind of exception is more prone to occur when there are a 
> large number of fragment instances running in an Impala cluster.
> Thread creation exception handling is dealt with in IMPALA-5750.
> There are other uncaught exceptions in the code. Please update this JIRA as 
> we find more.
