-------------------------------------
Summary: FetcherOrderedGrouped can get stuck indefinitely when
MergeManager misses memToDiskMerging
Key: TEZ-2214
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEZ-2214
Project: Apache Tez
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan
Scenario:
- commitMemory & usedMemory are beyond their allowed threshold.
- InMemoryMerge kicks off and is in the process of flushing memory contents to
disk
- As it progresses, it releases memory segments as well (but not yet over).
- Fetchers who need memory < maxSingleShuffleLimit, get scheduled.
- If fetchers are fast, this quickly adds up to commitMemory & usedMemory.
Since InMemoryMerge is already in progress, this wouldn't trigger another
merge().
- Pretty soon all fetchers would be stalled and get into the following state.

- Even if InMemoryMerger completes, "commitedMem & usedMem" are beyond their
threshold and no other fetcher threads (all are in stalled state) are there to
release memory. This causes fetchers to wait indefinitely.
