>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-30002
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Kaushal Prajapati
>            Priority: Minor

> In PySpark, we create SparkContext via user spark configurations or the default ones, and it gets launched through py4j gateway internally.
> Let's say if I have launched py4j gateway from another application then to communicate with the same py4j gateway I have to set below configuration:-
>  
> {code:java}
> export PYSPARK_GATEWAY_PORT=12345
> export PYSPARK_GATEWAY_SECRET=***********************
> {code}
>  
> So when PySpark tries to create its own SparkContext after the communication has been set up, it doesn't check whether there is any available SparkContext in the same JVM.
> Current code snippet:-
>  
> {code:java}
> def _initialize_context(self, jconf):
>     """
>     Initialize SparkContext in function to allow subclass specific initialization
>     """
>     return self._jvm.JavaSparkContext(jconf){code}
>  
>  
> After changing it to the following, it works fine for me.
> {code:java}
> def _initialize_context(self, jconf):
>     """
>     Initialize SparkContext in function to allow subclass specific initialization
>     """
>     return self._jvm.JavaSparkContext(self._jvm.org.apache.spark.SparkContext.getOrCreate(jconf)){code}
>  
> It looks like a good use case for improvement.
