Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-10119: ---------------------------------------- bq. If the former, +1 on 0.96. It seems this patch is more a fix than a change in semantics? Yes it's the former but before after the exception we weren't calling into CP code period. > Allow HBase coprocessors to clean up when they fail > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-10119 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10119 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: New Feature > Affects Versions: 0.96.0 > Reporter: Benoit Sigoure > Attachments: HBASE-10119.patch > > > In the thread [Giving a chance to buggy coprocessors to clean > up|http://osdir.com/ml/general/2013-12/msg17334.html] I brought up the issue > that coprocessors currently don't have a chance to release their own > resources (be they internal resources within the JVM, or external resources > elsewhere) when they get forcefully removed due to an uncaught exception > escaping. > It would be nice to fix that, either by adding an API called by the > {{CoprocessorHost}} when killing a faulty coprocessor, or by guaranteeing > that the coprocessor's {{stop()}} method will be invoked then. > This feature request is actually pretty important due to bug HBASE-9046, > which means that it's not possible to properly clean up a coprocessor without > restarting the RegionServer (!!). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.4#6159)
