             Summary: Sending a kill does not immediately kill docker containers
                 Key: YARN-8206
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-8206
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Eric Badger
            Assignee: Eric Badger

        if (ContainerExecutor.Signal.KILL.equals(signal)
            || ContainerExecutor.Signal.TERM.equals(signal)) {
          handleContainerStop(containerId, env);

Currently in the code, we are handling both SIGKILL and SIGTERM as equivalent 
for docker containers. However, they should actually be separate. When YARN 
sends a SIGKILL to a process, it means for it to die immediately and not sit 
around waiting for anything. This ensures an immediate reclamation of 
resources. Additionally, if a SIGTERM is sent before the SIGKILL, the task 
might not handle the signal correctly, and will then end up as a failed task 
instead of a killed task. This is especially bad for preemption.
