Thomas Graves updated SPARK-1740:
---------------------------------
Priority: Critical (was: Major)
> Pyspark cancellation kills unrelated pyspark workers
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-1740
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1740
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: PySpark
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Aaron Davidson
> Priority: Critical
>
> PySpark cancellation calls SparkEnv#destroyPythonWorker. Since there is one
> python worker per process, this would seem like a sensible thing to do.
> Unfortunately, this method actually destroys a python daemon, and all
> associated workers, which generally means that we can cause failures in
> unrelated Pyspark jobs.
> The severity of this bug is limited by the fact that the Pyspark daemon is
> easily recreated, so the tasks will succeed after being restarted.
