[jira] [Updated] (MAPREDUCE-4707) FairScheduler#dump()'s body is unnecessarily synchronized on eventLog

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4707?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Karthik Kambatla updated MAPREDUCE-4707:
----------------------------------------

    Attachment: MR-4707.patch

Uploading a patch that removes the synchonization on eventLog in FairScheduler#dump(). However, this patch requires MR-4706 commmitted - they modify the same method.

> FairScheduler#dump() is a synchronized method. In addition to that, the entire method body is in a synchronized block on eventLog. However, there is no other portion of the code that tries to acquire a lock on eventLog. So, it seems like the second synchronized block is redundant, and can be removed.
