Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-1436:
----------------------------------------
Yep, I think your last bullet point is sufficient: there's an ordering of locks
JT -> Scheduler -> JIP. A lock order is correct iff it is a subsequence of that
ordering.

> 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.
