Xu Cang commented on HBASE-23744:
---------------------------------

The idea you showed in PR makes sense to me. 

Just wondering, is there another way to properly "temporarily prevent writes on 
cluster" such as disabling PRC handling ?

Setting the callqueue.length to 0 is a bit subtle to indicate the fact we want 
to disable writes.   If we do so, could you please add a one sentence comment 
in FastPathBalancedQueueRpcExecutor class?  thanks.

> FastPathBalancedQueueRpcExecutor allows RPC requests to skip the RPC queue 
> and get worked by an available handler under certain circumstances. 
> Relatedly, the hbase.ipc.server.max.callqueue.length parameter can be set to 
> 0, including dynamically. This can be useful to temporarily prevent writes on 
> a cluster. 
> When this is the case the executor is supposed to block all dispatching. 
> However, the FastPathBalancedQueueRpcExecutor will still dispatch the request 
> if one of the "fast path" handlers is available on its stack. This both isn't 
> the desired effect, and also makes 
> TestSimpleRpcScheduler.testSoftAndHardQueueLimits unstable when it checks the 
> queue length 0 behavior. 
> A simple fix is just to check max queue length > 0 before 
> FastPathBalancedQueueRpcExecutor pops the fast handler off the stack.
