             Summary: Make NetworkTopology#netLock fair
                 Key: HADOOP-15486
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15486
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: net
            Reporter: Nanda kumar
            Assignee: Nanda kumar


Whenever a datanode is restarted, the registration call after the restart 
received by NameNode lands in {{NetworkTopology#add}} via 
{{DatanodeManager#registerDatanode}} requires write lock on 
{{NetworkTopology#netLock}}. This registration thread is getting starved by 
flood of {{FSNamesystem.getAdditionalDatanode}} calls, which are triggered by 
clients those who were writing to the restarted datanode.
The registration call which is waiting for write lock on 
{{NetworkTopology#netLock}} is holding write lock on {{FSNamesystem#fsLock}}, 
causing all the other RPC calls which require the lock on 
{{FSNamesystem#fsLock}} wait.
We can make {{NetworkTopology#netLock}} lock fair so that the registration 
thread will not starve.
