Patch Set 3: I have experienced in the past an issue where the fairness policy causes a deadlock. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2223?focusedCommentId=13097647&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13097647 for example. I think the issue only happens when you recursively acquire the read lock, or if you are holding the read lock while waiting on another thread which needs to acquire the read lock. I'm not sure if we have cases of either, but we should probably document this danger. -- To view, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/3603 To unsubscribe, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/settings Gerrit-MessageType: comment Gerrit-Change-Id: I16ba6cd041f126c94e63fa07a1e84c88db6778d7 Gerrit-PatchSet: 3 Gerrit-Project: kudu Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Adar Dembo <a...@cloudera.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Adar Dembo <a...@cloudera.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Dan Burkert <d...@cloudera.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: David Ribeiro Alves <dral...@apache.org> Gerrit-Reviewer: Kudu Jenkins Gerrit-Reviewer: Todd Lipcon <t...@apache.org> Gerrit-HasComments: No
