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

[~zxu] Hello, Zhihai. I'm sorry for late for responding. [~ryu_kobayashi] asked me to take over this JIRA. So I'll update current patch soon. Thank you.

> Problem: 
> HistoryFileManager.addIfAbsent produces large amount of logs if number of
> cached entries whose age is less than mapreduce.jobhistory.max-age-ms becomes
> larger than mapreduce.jobhistory.joblist.cache.size by far.
> Example:
> For example, if the cache contains 50000 entries in total and 10,000 entries
> newer than mapreduce.jobhistory.max-age-ms where
> mapreduce.jobhistory.joblist.cache.size is 20000, HistoryFileManager.addIfAbsent
> method produces 50000 - 20000 = 30000 lines of "Waiting to remove <key> from
> JobListCache because it is not in done yet" message.
> It will attach a stacktrace.
> Impact:
> In addition to large disk consumption, this issue blocks JobHistory.getJob
> long time and slows job execution down significantly because getJob is called
> by RPC such as HistoryClientService.HSClientProtocolHandler.getJobReport.
> This impact happens because HistoryFileManager.UserLogDir.scanIfNeeded
> eventually calls HistoryFileManager.addIfAbsent in a synchronized block. When
> multiple threads call scanIfNeeded simultaneously, one of them acquires lock
> and the other threads are blocked until the first thread completes long-running
> HistoryFileManager.addIfAbsent call.
> Solution: 
> * Reduce amount of logs so that HistoryFileManager.addIfAbsent doesn't take too long time.
> * Good to have if possible: HistoryFileManager.UserLogDir.scanIfNeeded skips
>   scanning if another thread is already scanning. This changes semantics of
>   some HistoryFileManager methods (such as getAllFileInfo and getFileInfo)
>   because scanIfNeeded keep outdated state.
> * Good to have if possible: Make scanIfNeeded asynchronous so that RPC calls are
>   not blocked by a loop at scale of tens of thousands.
>  
> This patch implemented the first item.
