Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5088: -------------------------------------- SoftValueSortedMap is (currently) only used in HConnectionImplementation, so that should be OK. It seems that ReferenceQueue is thread safe and hence we won't need to synchronize any of the methods in SoftValueSortedMap. > A concurrency issue on SoftValueSortedMap > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5088 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5088 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: client > Affects Versions: 0.90.4, 0.94.0 > Reporter: Jieshan Bean > Assignee: Jieshan Bean > > SoftValueSortedMap is backed by a TreeMap. All the methods in this class are > synchronized. If we use this method to add/delete elements, it's ok. > But in HConnectionManager#getCachedLocation, it use headMap to get a view > from SoftValueSortedMap#internalMap. Once we operate > on this view map(like add/delete) in other threads, a concurrency issue may > occur. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
