             Summary: Introduce an os::rename abstraction to stout.
                 Key: MESOS-2265
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2265
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Technical task
          Components: stout
            Reporter: Michael Park
            Assignee: Michael Park
             Fix For: 0.22.0


We introduce an {{os::rename}} abstraction to {{stout}} in order to support 
atomicity and validity of checkpointed files. Writing directly to the 
checkpoint file can leave the file in a corrupted state if either: the slave 
crashes while writing, or checkpointing encounters an error and the slave 
crashes before the partially written file is removed. We should checkpoint to a 
temporary file instead and use {{os::rename}} to atomically move it to the 
desired path.
