Shixiong Zhu commented on SPARK-5124:
-------------------------------------

1. For the local Endpoint, let's put it in a future change.
2. RpcCallContext looks good to me. @rxin, thoughts? 
3. For `replyWithSender`, I copied my answer in the pr here:

For example, RpcEndpoint A calls sendWithReply to send a message to RpcEndpoint 
B. In B's receiveAndReply, it may have two requirements.

Reply to A but don't need a reply. It means, the replied message should be sent 
to receive method of A. (reply)
Reply to A but need a reply. It means, the replied message should be sent to 
receiveAndReply method of A. (replyWithSender)
That's why here we need two methods.

> In Spark we use Akka as the RPC layer. It would be great if we can 
> standardize the internal RPC interface to facilitate testing. This will also 
> provide the foundation to try other RPC implementations in the future.
