Ben West commented on HBASE-5290:
---------------------------------
TestCompactSelection is a different package, so making it package private won't
help, right? (Unless JUnit has some magic here?)

> This bug is reported by the findBugs tool, which is a static analysis tool.
> Bug: Synchronization on Integer in
> org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.compactions.CompactSelection.emptyFileList()
> The code synchronizes on a boxed primitive constant, such as an Integer.
> {code}
> private static Integer count = 0;
> ...
> synchronized(count) {
> count++;
> }
> ...
> {code}
> Since Integer objects can be cached and shared, this code could be
> synchronizing on the same object as other, unrelated code, leading to
> unresponsiveness and possible deadlock
> See CERT CON08-J. Do not synchronize on objects that may be reused for more
> information.
> Confidence: Normal, Rank: Troubling (14)
> Pattern: DL_SYNCHRONIZATION_ON_BOXED_PRIMITIVE
> Type: DL, Category: MT_CORRECTNESS (Multithreaded correctness)
