MENG DING commented on YARN-1509:
---------------------------------

Hi, [~bikassaha]

Thanks for the comments.

I probably didn't make myself clear. We are on the SAME page that for the sake 
of point 2 alone, it already makes sense to combine increase/decrease API into 
one change API: {code}public abstract void 
requestContainerResourceChange(Container container, Resource capability);{code} 
What I was trying to say in the previous post is that to support mix of 
increase and decrease in one change request (point 1) doesn't seem to be very 
feasible (even at a later date). But I don't think we need to worry about that 
for now.

Since we are combining increase/decrease API, we definitely should combine the 
callback methods into one as well: onContainerResourceChanged(). At this point, 
I am inclined to simply do the following which doesn't incur much code changes. 
I will discuss further with [~leftnoteasy] on this. {code}public abstract void 
onContainersResourceChanged(List<Container> containers);{code}

bq. Or are you saying that invalid container resource change requests are 
immediately rejected by the RM synchronously in the allocate RPC?
Yes, the ApplicationMasterService will perform a series of sanity checks (e.g., 
requested resource <= maximum allocation, etc), and reject invalid requests 
immediately. This is the same for other requests too.

bq. Having a simple cancel request regardless of increase or decrease is 
preferable since then we are not leaking the current state of the 
implementation to the user. It is future safe
Make sense to me. We can probably have something like 
{{cancelContainerResourceChange(Container container)}}, which applies to the 
container that has an outstanding pending increase sitting in the pendingChange 
map. There is no explicit protocol to support cancellation of resource change 
yet. For now we can achieve that by issuing a backend decrease request with the 
target resource set to the same as the current resource, which effectively 
cancels any outstanding increase request.
