             Summary: NPE from LRUDictionary when size reaches the max init value
                 Key: HBASE-10438
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10438
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.98.0
            Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
            Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 0.98.0


This happened while testing tags with COMPRESS_TAG=true/false. I was trying to change this attribute of compressing tags by altering the HCD.  The DBE used is FAST_DIFF. 
In one particular case I got this

I am not able to reproduce this.  One thing is I altered the table to use COMPRESS_TAGS here before that it was false.  
My feeling is this is not due to the COMPRESS_TAGS because we try to handle this per file by adding it in FILE_INFO. 
In the above stack trace the problem has occured while compaction and so the flushed file should have this property set.  I think the problem could be with LRUDicitonary.
the reason for NPE is 
{code}
 if (currSize < initSize) {
        // There is space to add without evicting.
        indexToNode[currSize].setContents(stored, 0, stored.length);
        setHead(indexToNode[currSize]);
        short ret = (short) currSize++;
        nodeToIndex.put(indexToNode[ret], ret);
        System.out.println(currSize);
        return ret;
      } else {
        short s = nodeToIndex.remove(tail);
        tail.setContents(stored, 0, stored.length);
        // we need to rehash this.
        nodeToIndex.put(tail, s);
        moveToHead(tail);
        return s;
      }
{code}
Here 
{code}
short s = nodeToIndex.remove(tail);
{code}
is giving a null value and the typecasting to short primitive is throwing NPE.  Am digging this further to see if am able to reproduce this.
