Jordan Ly created AURORA-1949:
---------------------------------
Summary: PreemptionVictimFilterImpl comparator violates
transitivity causing exceptions
Key: AURORA-1949
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1949
Project: Aurora
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Scheduler
Reporter: Jordan Ly
Priority: Critical
The PreemptionVictimFilterImpl uses a comparator to sort ResourceBags in order
to preempt the biggest tasks first when searching for a victim. However, the
current implementation causes an exception which causes the Scheduler to fail:
{noformat}
SEVERE: Service PreemptorService [FAILED] has failed in the RUNNING state.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Comparison method violates its general
contract!

{noformat}
Looking at the code, it seems it violates transitivity:
{code:java}
@VisibleForTesting
static final Ordering<ResourceBag> ORDER = new Ordering<ResourceBag>() {
@Override
public int compare(ResourceBag left, ResourceBag right) {
Set<ResourceType> types = ImmutableSet.<ResourceType>builder()
.addAll(left.streamResourceVectors().map(e ->
e.getKey()).iterator())
.addAll(right.streamResourceVectors().map(e ->
e.getKey()).iterator())
.build();
boolean allZero = true;
boolean allGreaterOrEqual = true;
boolean allLessOrEqual = true;
for (ResourceType type : types) {
int compare = left.valueOf(type).compareTo(right.valueOf(type));
if (compare != 0) {
allZero = false;
}
if (compare < 0) {
allGreaterOrEqual = false;
}
if (compare > 0) {
allLessOrEqual = false;
}
}
if (allZero) {
return 0;
}
if (allGreaterOrEqual) {
return 1;
}
if (allLessOrEqual) {
return -1;
}
return 0;
}
};
{code}
The example below illustrates the error:
{noformat}
Resource: X Y Z
Bag A: 2 0 2
Bag B: 1 2 1
Bag C: 2 2 1
{noformat}
We can see that A = B, B < C, and C = A which would cause an exception.
There are a couple of routes we can take to solve this. What we really want is
to be able to define partial ordering (comparator does total ordering) so we
can do a topological sort. Additionally, we can give priority to particular
resources (Dominant Resource Fairness).
