Chengbing Liu commented on YARN-3826:
-------------------------------------

[~devaraj.k], is it possible that two heartbeats happen at the same time? 
Because the following code
{code}
      shutDown.setDiagnosticsMessage(message);
      return shutDown;
{code}
is not atomic, race can happen when two threads run to this point 
simultaneously.

> Race condition in ResourceTrackerService: potential wrong diagnostics messages

> Since we are calling {{setDiagnosticsMessage}} in {{nodeHeartbeat}}, which 
> can be called concurrently, the static {{resync}} and {{shutdown}} may have 
> wrong diagnostics messages in some cases.
> On the other side, these static members can hardly save any memory, since the 
> normal heartbeat responses are created for each heartbeat.
