Alejandro Abdelnur commented on MAPREDUCE-4942:
-----------------------------------------------

[~acmurthy], AFAIK what we were saying regarding compatibility between Hadoop 1 
and Hadoop 2 is:

* applications written using Hadoop 1 mapred API are binary compatible.
* applications written using Hadoop 1 mapreduce API are source compatible 
(required only recompilation).

Without this patch, the second bullet item does not hold.

IMO, we screwed up and we don't have clean way out. I understand keeping this 
patch impacts early adopters of YARN, and I'm not happy about it. Still, I 
think we have to consider how this affects the whole Hadoop user base and make 
a decision towards their interest.

Because of this, I think we should keep this patch not to break people moving 
from Hadoop 1 to Hadoop 2.

> The following methods in MR2's {{org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job}} throw an 
> {{InterruptedException}} but don't in MR1, which makes them incompatible.  
> (Their Javadoc comments are also missing that they throw an 
> {{InterruptedException}} anyway)
> I propose that we wrap the {{InterruptedException}} in a 
> {{RuntimeException}}.  
> {code}
> public float setupProgress() throws IOException, InterruptedException

> public boolean isComplete() throws IOException, InterruptedException
> public boolean isSuccessful() throws IOException, InterruptedException
> public void killJob() throws IOException, InterruptedException
> public void killTask(org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.TaskAttemptID) throws
