--------------------------------

             Summary: ResourceUtilization/ContainersMonitorImpl is calculating 
CPU utilization as a float, which is imprecise
                 Key: YARN-6870
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-6870
             Project: Hadoop YARN
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: api, nodemanager
            Reporter: Brook Zhou
            Assignee: Brook Zhou


We have seen issues on our clusters where the current way of computing CPU 
usage is having float-arithmetic inaccuracies (the bug is still there in trunk)

Simple program to illustrate:
{code:title=Bar.java|borderStyle=solid}
      public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
            float result = 0.0f;
            for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
                  if (i == 6) {
                        result += (float) 4 / (float)18;
                  } else {
                        result += (float) 2 / (float)18;
                  }
            }
            for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
                  if (i == 6) {
                        result -= (float) 4 / (float)18;
                  } else {
                        result -= (float) 2 / (float)18;
                  }                 
            }
            System.out.println(result);
      }
{code}

org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.nodemanager.containermanager.monitor.ContainersMonitorImpl:
 Not enough cpu for [container_e3295_1491978508342_0467_01_000030], Current CPU 
Allocation: [0.8888891], Requested CPU Allocation: [0.11111111]

There are a few places with this issue:
1. ResourceUtilization.java - set/getCPU both use float. When 
ContainerScheduler calls 
ContainersMonitor.increase/decreaseResourceUtilization, this may lead to issues.

2. AllocationBasedResourceUtilizationTracker.java  - hasResourcesAvailable uses 
float as well for CPU computation.
