             Summary: Add a timeout parameter when locating region
                 Key: HBASE-17251
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17251
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: asyncclient, Client
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Duo Zhang
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Now we always use the default timeout configured for zk and meta.

I think it is reasonable to always use the same timeout when accessing zk and 
meta as the result will be shared by lots of threads. If we could do a 
successful fetching then the result will be in cache so it does not make sense 
to set the timeout to a very small value when fetching.

But I think it is also important to let the user request finish in time even if 
the user can only get a timeout exception. We should not block a user request 
longer than operation timeout.

So I think we could add a timeout parameter to the region locate method, and if 
the location can not be fetched in time, we will just finished the returned 
CompletableFuture with a timeout exception, but the actual fetching operation 
can still go on and use its own timeout config.
