Naganarasimha G R updated YARN-3367: ------------------------------------ Attachment: YARN-3367-YARN-2928.v1.007.patch Thanks [~sjlee0], thanks for providing the patch having changes with *FutureTask*, it was nice to know how to use it. As earlier you had provided with a option to either use *CountdownLatch* or *FutureTask* , and as i was aware of {{CountdownLatch}} went ahead with that. It was nice to know how to use *FutureTask* and it was fitting aptly for this scenario. bq. IMO I don't think it is an overkill. Sync or async, Earlier had just skimmed through the *FutureTask* class and found a reference to a *Thread* with name *runner*, hence i thought it was creating a thread to publish it and mentioned it as *overhead*. Walked through the *FutureTask* code thoroughly, to realize that it was not spawning a thread but just holds the reference hence no problem. Apart from other few comments which you had suggested and not included in your trial patch have added a new Test class for V2. Also would like to get further feedbacks on * UGI <refer my earlier comments> or can it be handled later with Security fixes ? * {{TimelineClient}} class becoming bulky and little clumsy. So wanted to fork a new Class {{TimelineClientV2Impl}} and have some sort of hierarchy with {{TimelineClientImpl}}. For the EndUser there will be no change but just would like to split the V2 part of {{TimelineClientImpl}} to {{TimelineClientV2Impl}} , may be after this jira goes in can fork a new jira for this else can handle in the same jira > Replace starting a separate thread for post entity with event loop in > TimelineClient > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-3367 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3367 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: timelineserver > Affects Versions: YARN-2928 > Reporter: Junping Du > Assignee: Naganarasimha G R > Labels: yarn-2928-1st-milestone > Attachments: YARN-3367-YARN-2928.v1.005.patch, > YARN-3367-YARN-2928.v1.006.patch, YARN-3367-YARN-2928.v1.007.patch, > YARN-3367-feature-YARN-2928.003.patch, > YARN-3367-feature-YARN-2928.v1.002.patch, > YARN-3367-feature-YARN-2928.v1.004.patch, YARN-3367.YARN-2928.001.patch, > sjlee-suggestion.patch > > > Since YARN-3039, we add loop in TimelineClient to wait for > collectorServiceAddress ready before posting any entity. In consumer of > TimelineClient (like AM), we are starting a new thread for each call to get > rid of potential deadlock in main thread. This way has at least 3 major > defects: > 1. The consumer need some additional code to wrap a thread before calling > putEntities() in TimelineClient. > 2. It cost many thread resources which is unnecessary. > 3. The sequence of events could be out of order because each posting > operation thread get out of waiting loop randomly. > We should have something like event loop in TimelineClient side, > putEntities() only put related entities into a queue of entities and a > separated thread handle to deliver entities in queue to collector via REST > call. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
