The findbugs warning existed in trunk before my changes as well as evident in
Jenkins
(https://builds.apache.org/view/G-L/view/Hadoop/job/Hadoop-Mapreduce-trunk/703/artifact/trunk/findbugs/hadoop-findbugs-report.html).
An identical patch also applies to branch-0.22, however, pre-existing
compilation failures on it prevent me from validating it. Uploading it
nevertheless for completeness.
> map tasks timeout during sorting
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: MAPREDUCE-2187
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2187
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.20.2
> Reporter: Gianmarco De Francisci Morales
> Assignee: Anupam Seth
> Attachments: MAPREDUCE-2187-20-security.patch,
> MAPREDUCE-2187-trunk.patch

> During the execution of a large job, the map tasks timeout:
> {code}
> INFO mapred.JobClient: Task Id : attempt_201010290414_60974_m_000057_1,
> Status : FAILED
> Task attempt_201010290414_60974_m_000057_1 failed to report status for 609
> seconds. Killing!
> {code}
> The bug is in the fact that the mapper has already finished, and, according
> to the logs, the timeout occurs during the merge sort phase.
> The intermediate data generated by the map task is quite large. So I think
> this is the problem.
> The logs show that the merge-sort was running for 10 minutes when the task
> was killed.
> I think the mapred.Merger should call Reporter.progress() somewhere.
