Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-6341: ------------------------------------ The intent is for the variable to be accessed from a single thread. Please elaborate why you think multiple threads are updating it. cc [~rsivaram] > 'networkThreadTimeNanos' in KafkaChannel is not thread safe > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-6341 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6341 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: metrics > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: huxihx > > `networkThreadTimeNanos` in KafkaChannel is of primitive long type which is > not thread safe. Multiple Processor threads could access(read and write) this > variable at the same time. Since JVM spec does not guarantee of the atomic > 64-bit operations against long/double types, it's safer to employ AtomicLong > instead of the naive long type. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
