[jira] [Created] (HDFS-3041) DFSOutputStream.close doesn't properly handle interruption

DFSOutputStream.close doesn't properly handle interruption
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-3041
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3041
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hdfs client
    Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 0.24.0
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon
            Assignee: Todd Lipcon


TestHFlush.testHFlushInterrupted can fail occasionally due to a race: if a thread is interrupted while calling close(), then the {{finally}} clause of the {{close}} function sets {{closed = true}}. At this point it has enqueued the "end of block" packet to the DNs, but hasn't called {{completeFile}}. Then, if {{close}} is called again (as in the test case), it will be short-circuited since {{closed}} is already true. Thus {{completeFile}} never ends up getting called. This also means that the test can fail if the pipeline is running slowly, since the assertion that the file is the correct length won't see the last packet or two.
