Anand Mazumdar commented on MESOS-5364:
---------------------------------------
Resolving this issue since {{relink}} has been implemented. Would file another
issue to add functionality in the executor driver to use {{relink}}.
> Consider adding `unlink` functionality to libprocess

> Key: MESOS-5364
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5364
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Anand Mazumdar
> Labels: libprocess, mesosphere
>
> Currently we don't have the {{unlink}} functionality in libprocess i.e.
> Erlang's equivalent of http://erlang.org/doc/man/erlang.html#unlink-1. We
> have a lot of places in our current code with {{TODO's}} for implementing it.
> It can benefit us in a couple of ways:
> - Based on the business logic of the actor, it would want to authoritatively
> communicate that it is no longer interested in {{ExitedEvent}} for the
> external remote link.
> - Sometimes, the {{ExitedEvent}} might be delayed or might be dropped due to
> the remote instance being unavailable (e.g., partition, network
> intermediaries not sending RST's etc).
> I did not find any old JIRA's pertaining to this but I did come across an
> initial attempt to add this though albeit for injecting {{exited}} events as
> part of the initial review for MESOS-1059.
