             Summary: HDFS in minicluster fails to use cache with RHEL 8 on ARM
                 Key: IMPALA-12516
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-12516
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Michael Smith


When running HDFS on ARM as part of Impala's test minicluster (Graviton 2/3 instances running RHEL 8), query_test/test_hdfs_caching.py::TestHdfsCaching::test_table_is_cached fails.

I've traced this to HDFS returning LocatedFileStatus objects where
* in most environments, BlockLocations.getCachedHosts has at least one entry
* on m6g and m7g instances with RHEL 8, BlockLocations.getCachedHosts is an empty set
HDFS datanode shows the following warnings, which seem related. 2199 is the size of the data entry we expect to be able to read from cache.

https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.8.0/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-hdfs/MemoryStorage.html#Limit_RAM_used_for_replicas_in_Memory mentions configuring dfs.datanode.max.locked.memory and memlock. Increasing these settings to 100000 and 100 respectively in my environment fixes the test. We should update the minicluster config to allow increasing dfs.datanode.max.locked.memory in relevant test environments.
