---------------------------------

             Summary: getBlockLocationsUpdateTimes missing handle exception may cause fsLock dead lock
                 Key: HDFS-7253
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7253
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: namenode
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
            Reporter: Carrey Zhan


One day my active namenode hanged and I dumped the program stacks by jstack.In the stacks file, I saw most threads were waiting FSNamesystem.fsLock, both  readLock and writeLock were unacquirable, but no thread was holding writeLock.
I tried to access the web interface of this namenode but was blocked. and I tried to failover the active node to another namenode manually (zkfs did not discover this node was hanging) but it was also failed. So I killed this namenode trying to recover the production environment, then the failover was triggered, standby nn transited to active, and then, the new active namenode hanged.
My following steps are useless and can be ignored. At last, I thought it was caused by an incorrect lock handling in FSNamesystem.getBlockLocationsUpdateTimes, which I will describe in the first comment.
