Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-4186: ---------------------------------- If ppl don't have problem with incorrect batched sync metrics, I will take it out. > logSync() is called with the write lock held while releasing lease > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-4186 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4186 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: name-node > Affects Versions: 0.23.4, 2.0.2-alpha > Reporter: Kihwal Lee > Assignee: Kihwal Lee > Priority: Critical > Attachments: hdfs-4186-trunk.patch > > > As pointed out in HDFS-4138, when the lease monitor calls > internalReleaseLease(), it acquires the namespace write lock. Inside > internalReleaseLease(), if a block recovery is needed, the lease is > reassigned to the namenode itself and this is logged & synced in > logReassignLease(). > Since this is done while the write lock is held, log syncing is blocked. When > a large number of leases are expired and blocks are recovered, namenode can > slow down. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
