[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-11221) JAVA specification for hashcode does not enforce it to be non-negative, but IdentityHashStore assumes System.identityHashCode() is non-negative

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11221?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14181706#comment-14181706 ] 

Jinghui Wang commented on HADOOP-11221:
---------------------------------------

This causes failures with IBM JAVA where System.identityHashCode can return negative values. Attached patch fixes the problem.
