Todd Lipcon updated MAPREDUCE-1436:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: deadlock.png

Hey Matei. Here's another potential deadlock. Now that I see this one, I 
realize I actually ran into the one you're fixing here before - I had thought 
it was unique to the unit tests, but I think it really is a problem.

Can you take a look at this cycle and see what you think? If it's a separate 
issue, maybe we can do it in a new jira. Thanks.

> In testing the fair scheduler with preemption, I found a deadlock between 
> updatePreemptionVariables and some code in the JobTracker. This was found 
> while testing a backport of the fair scheduler to Hadoop 0.20, but it looks 
> like it could also happen in trunk and 0.21. Details are in a comment below.
