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

             Summary: Allow task to report different kinds of errors - fatal / kill
                 Key: TEZ-3161
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEZ-3161
             Project: Apache Tez
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Siddharth Seth


In some cases, task failures will be the same across all attempts - e.g. exceeding memory utilization on an operation. In this case, there's no point in running another attempt of the same task.

There's other cases where a task may want to mark itself as KILLED - i.e. a temporary error. An example of this is pipelined shuffle.

Tez should allow both operations.
