> It seems the root cause of the issue is that we open a new log writer and
> close the old one at HLog#rollWriter() holding the updateLock, but the other
> threads doing syncer() calls
> {code}
> logSyncerThread.hlogFlush(this.writer);
> {code}
> without holding the updateLock. LogSyncer only synchronizes against
> concurrent appends and flush(), but not on the passed writer, which can be
> closed already by rollWriter(). In this case, since
> SequenceFile#Writer.close() sets it's out field as null, we get the NPE.
