Junping Du commented on YARN-3304:
----------------------------------
Thanks for comments, [~kasha]!
bq. In previous releases, we have never called these APIs Public even if they
were intended to be sub-classed. In my mind, this is the last opportunity to
decide on what the API should do? I think consistent and reasonable return
values should be given a higher priority over compatibility.
Agree on the priority here. However, having consistent and reasonable return
values doesn't have to break compatibility (or consistent behaviors) - just
like the way I proposed above, we can consistently return resource value to 0
if they are unavailable and we have an additional flag to mark if resource is
available or not.
bq. I am okay with adding boolean methods to capture unavailability, but that
seems a little overboard. Using -1 in the ResourceCalculatorProcessTree is okay
by me. My concern was with logging this -1 value in the metrics. In either
case, I would like for the container usage metrics to see if the usage is
available before logging the same.
I agree both ways can work. However, I think adding a boolean method sounds
better, at least former. More important, it doesn't break any consistent
behavior of previous releases. We don't need to break it if we don't have to.
Isn't it?
bq. Since it is not too much work or risk, I would prefer we fix both in 2.7.
This is solely wearing my Apache hat on. My Cloudera hat doesn't really mind it
being in 2.8 vs 2.7.
My idea is simple here: a fast-moving, regular and predictable release train
could benefit our community and ecosystem in many aspects. I also have other
wish list that cannot catch up 2.7. When this patch get in, I am not sure if
YARN-3392 is still a blocker for 2.7 and I would also prefer a fix rather than
a pending JIRA there delay the release unnecessarily. [~vinodkv], [~kasha] and
[~adhoot], what do you think?
