Github user mridulm commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/17610 bq. I don't get it. But I think the stack trace shows why this dead-lock happens. Based on your description/stacktrace, I get why the deadlock happens - what I meant was, do any of the super.* methods invoked in the `stop` call tree assume they are invoked with `this` already locked ? If not, then a narrow lock on `this` just to flip the state of `stopped` might be better. An `AtomicBoolean` will introduce a new lock (which is not required here I think). The deadlock occurs because we are calling rpc with the lock held already (which is probably be a pattern we should somehow catch since it will invariably cause deadlocks !)
