Craig Welch commented on YARN-3211:
-----------------------------------

Can you add comments in code explaining why the enum starts at 1 so that it is 
not confusing to others who look at the code down the line?  Can you add a test 
for the change?  What will happen after this change if the parsing encounters a 
non-numeric string?

> Do not use zero as the beginning number for commands for 
> LinuxContainerExecutor

> Current the implementation of LinuxContainerExecutor and container-executor 
> uses some numbers as its commands. The commands begin from zero 
> (INITIALIZE_CONTAINER).
> When LinuxContainerExecutor gives the numeric command as the command line 
> parameter to run container-executor. container-executor calls atoi() to parse 
> the command string to integer.
> However, we know that atoi() will return zero when it can not parse the 
> string to integer. So if you give an non-numeric command, container-executor 
> still accepts it and runs INITIALIZE_CONTAINER command.
> I think it is wrong and we should not use zero as the beginning number of the 
> commands.
