Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-1119:
----------------------------------------

+1 pending Hudson QA results from the last patch (don't see why it wouldn't be 
fine given it's just javadoc changes since last one)

> When tasks fail to report status, show tasks's stack dump before killing

> When the TT kills tasks that haven't reported status, it should somehow 
> gather a stack dump for the task. This could be done either by sending a 
> SIGQUIT (so the dump ends up in stdout) or perhaps something like JDI to 
> gather the stack directly from Java. This may be somewhat tricky since the 
> child may be running as another user (so the SIGQUIT would have to go through 
> LinuxTaskController). This feature would make debugging these kinds of 
> failures much easier, especially if we could somehow get it into the 
> TaskDiagnostic message
