Github user mridulm commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/791#issuecomment-43756945 @tdas as @cloud-fan stated, the code uses the implementation detail that the private method is always called within context of a tryToPut lock - and not called by anyone else. I dont like the fact that we have locking state spread out like this, but then this is how it was already I guess ... Maybe we should at best annotate the method ? And possibly assert that it is within tryToPut lock ?
