Ted Yu commented on HBASE-7728:
-------------------------------
In both 0.94 and trunk, we have:
{code}
void hlogFlush(Writer writer, List<Entry> pending) throws IOException {
if (pending == null) return;
{code}
So the null check before calling hlogFlush() is not needed.
> deadlock occurs between hlog roller and hlog syncer
