Phabricator updated HBASE-6943:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: D5877.1.patch

mbautin requested code review of "[jira] [HBASE-6943] [89-fb] Do not catch 
certain exceptions trying to get an RS connection".
Reviewers: Kannan, Liyin, Karthik, JIRA

  When getting a regionserver connection in 0.89-fb in HBaseClient, we catch 
all types of Throwable. I have observed a real case when the client looked 
stuck. On debugging it turned out that a NoSuchMethodError was thrown and 
caught, leaving the connection in an inconsistent state (initialized socket but 
null streams). All following attempts resulted in NPEs that were also caught, 
and no errors were logged. From the user's perspective the client was just 
stuck. The root cause was the absence of a required jar (hence the 
NoSuchMethodError) but it was not reported properly.

TEST PLAN
  Run a client with the same configuration as before and verify it does not get 
stuck.
