Arpit Agarwal updated HDFS-8163:
--------------------------------
    Status: Patch Available  (was: In Progress)

> Using monotonicNow for block report scheduling causes test failures on 
> recently restarted systems
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: HDFS-8163
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8163
>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: datanode
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.1
>            Reporter: Arpit Agarwal
>            Assignee: Arpit Agarwal
>            Priority: Blocker
>         Attachments: HDFS-8163.01.patch

>
> {{BPServiceActor#blockReport}} has the following check:
> {code}
>   List<DatanodeCommand> blockReport() throws IOException {
>     // send block report if timer has expired.
>     final long startTime = monotonicNow();
>     if (startTime - lastBlockReport <= dnConf.blockReportInterval) {
>       return null;
>     }
> {code}
> Many tests trigger an immediate block report via 
> {{BPServiceActor#triggerBlockReportForTests}} which sets {{lastBlockReport = 
> 0}}. However if the machine was restarted recently then startTime may be less 
> than {{dnConf.blockReportInterval}} and the block report is not sent.
> {{Time#monotonicNow}} uses {{System#nanoTime}} which represents time elapsed 
> since an arbitrary origin. The time should be used only for comparison with 
> other values returned by {{System#nanoTime}}.
