             Summary: Simplify Threading Model of the Supervisor
                 Key: STORM-2018
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-2018
             Project: Apache Storm
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: storm-core
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 2.0.0
            Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans
            Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans


We have been trying to roll out CGROUP enforcement and right now are running into a number of race conditions in the supervisor.  When using CGROUPS the timing of some operations are different and are exposing issues that we would not see without this.

In order to make progress with testing/deploying CGROUP and RAS we are going to try and refactor the supervisor to have a simpler threading model, but likely with more threads.  We will base the code off of the java code currently in master, and may replace that in the 2.0 release, but plan on having it be a part of 1.x too, if it truly is more stable.

I will try to keep this JIRA up to date with what we are doing and the architecture to keep the community informed.  We need to move quickly to meet some of our company goals but will not just shove this in.  We welcome any feedback on the design and code before it goes into the community.
