Robert Kruszewski commented on SPARK-20952:
-------------------------------------------
This is already an issue though on driver side (that threadpool is driver side
which already has inheritable thread pool). This issue is only so we have same
behaviour on executors and driver
> TaskContext should be an InheritableThreadLocal
> -----------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-20952
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-20952
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 2.1.1
> Reporter: Robert Kruszewski
> Priority: Minor
>
> TaskContext is a ThreadLocal as a result when you fork a thread inside your
> executor task you lose the handle on the original context set by the
> executor. We should change it to InheritableThreadLocal so we can access it
> inside thread pools on executors.
> See ParquetFileFormat#readFootersInParallel for example of code that uses
> thread pools inside the tasks.
