[SPARK-9416] [core,yarn] Make pyspark fail YARN app on failure. The YARN backend doesn't like when user code calls `System.exit`, since it cannot know the exit status and thus cannot set an appropriate final status for the application. So, for pyspark, avoid that call and instead throw an exception with the exit code. SparkSubmit handles that exception and exits with the given exit code, while YARN uses the exit code as the failure code for the Spark app. You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/vanzin/spark SPARK-9416 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/7751.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #7751 ---- commit 2bb2a8a6ebe47dbec7f0cf45ea9f1eac944a6a0e Author: Marcelo Vanzin <van...@cloudera.com> Date: 2015-07-29T00:14:59Z [SPARK-9416] [core,yarn] Make pyspark fail YARN app on failure.
