[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-12909) Support asynchronous RPC calls

Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze created HADOOP-12909:
--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Support asynchronous RPC calls
                 Key: HADOOP-12909
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12909
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: ipc
            Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze
            Assignee: Xiaobing Zhou


In ipc.Client, the underlying mechanism is already supporting asynchronous calls -- the calls shares a connection, the call requests are sent using a thread pool and the responses can be out of order.  Indeed, synchronized call is implemented by invoking wait() in the caller thread in order to wait for the server response.

In this JIRA, we change ipc.Client to support asynchronous mode.  In asynchronous mode, it return once the request has been sent out but not wait for the response from the server.
