zhihai xu commented on YARN-3405:
---------------------------------

[~kasha] is right, There is a possibility for the first scenario. If we have 
another queue queue-2 which is queue-1's sibling and queue-2 is greater than 
queue-1 when compare queue-1 and queue-2, then queue-2 will always be picked 
for preemption and queue-1 won't have chance to be preempted.

> FairScheduler's preemption cannot happen between sibling in some case

>             Project: Hadoop YARN
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: fairscheduler
>    Affects Versions: 2.7.0
>            Reporter: Peng Zhang
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Queue hierarchy described as below:
> {noformat}
>              root
>               |         
>            queue-1        
>           /      \
> queue-1-1        queue-1-2
> {noformat}
> 1. When queue-1-1 is active and it has been assigned with all resources.
> 2. When queue-1-2 is active, and it cause some new preemption request.
> 3. But when do preemption, it now starts from root, and found queue-1 is not 
> over fairshare, so no recursion preemption to queue-1-1.
> 4. Finally queue-1-2 will be waiting for resource release form queue-1-1 
> itself.
