[jira] [Resolved] (MAPREDUCE-4922) Request with multiple data local nodes can cause NPE in AppSchedulingInfo

Sandy Ryza resolved MAPREDUCE-4922.

    Resolution: Won't Fix

> With the way that the schedulers work, each request for a container on a node must consist of 3 ResourceRequests - one on the node, one on the rack, and one with *.
> AppSchedulingInfo tracks the outstanding requests.  When a node is assigned a node-local container, allocateNodeLocal decrements the outstanding requests at each level - node, rack, and *.  If the rack requests reach 0, it removes the mapping.
> A mapreduce task with multiple data local nodes submits multiple container requests, one for each node.  It also submits one for each unique rack, and one for *.  If there are fewer unique racks than data local nodes, this means that fewer rack-local ResourceRequests will be submitted than node-local ResourceRequests, so the rack-local mapping will be deleted before all the node-local requests are allocated and an NPE will come up the next time a node-local request from that rack is allocated.
