Ted Yu commented on HBASE-21175:
--------------------------------
Very close.
{code}
+ * @throws IOException throws an IOException if there's problem creating a
table
{code}
Is the description accurate ?
Is there other scenario where IOE is thrown ?
{code}
+ // Avoid passing a null master to CleanerChore, see HBASE-21175
{code}
nit:
Please move the start of comment two spaces to the left.

> TestHFileArchiving#testCleaningRace creates HFileCleaner instance within the
> test.
> When SnapshotHFileCleaner.init() is called, there is no master parameter
> passed in {{params}}.
> When the chore runs the cleaner during the test, NPE comes out of this line
> in getDeletableFiles():
> {code}
> return cache.getUnreferencedFiles(files, master.getSnapshotManager());
> {code}
> since master is null.
> We should either check for the null master or, pass master instance properly
> when constructing the cleaner instance.
