------------------------------------

             Summary: Update configuration definition for 
spark.blacklist.killBlacklistedExecutors
                 Key: SPARK-24416
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24416
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0
            Reporter: Sanket Reddy


spark.blacklist.killBlacklistedExecutors is defined asĀ 

(Experimental) If set to "true", allow Spark to automatically kill, and attempt 
to re-create, executors when they are blacklisted. Note that, when an entire 
node is added to the blacklist, all of the executors on that node will be 
killed.

I presume the killing of blacklisted executors only happens after the stage 
completes successfully and all tasks have completed or on fetch failures 
(updateBlacklistForFetchFailure/updateBlacklistForSuccessfulTaskSet). It is 
confusing because the definition states that the executor will be attempted to 
be recreated as soon as it is blacklisted. This is not true while the stage is 
in progress and an executor is blacklisted, it will not attempt to cleanup 
until the stage finishes.
