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

             Summary: CleanerChore shouldn't leak IOException for failed delete of non-empty directory
                 Key: HBASE-7465
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7465
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master
    Affects Versions: 0.96.0, 0.94.4
            Reporter: Jesse Yates
            Assignee: Jesse Yates
             Fix For: 0.96.0, 0.94.4


CleanerChore has the following lines:
{code}
    // if all the children have been deleted, then we should try to delete this directory. However,
    // don't do so recursively so we don't delete files that have been added since we checked.
    return canDeleteThis ? fs.delete(toCheck, false) : false;
{code}

has a race condition where the directory can have a file added underneath of it between being determined 'ok to delete' and not. As the comment mentions, we don't do a recursive delete to avoid deleting those files. However, the non-recursive delete of the directory throws an IOException.
