[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-9970) TaskTracker hung after failed reconnect to the JobTracker

Ivan Mitic created HADOOP-9970:
----------------------------------

             Summary: TaskTracker hung after failed reconnect to the JobTracker
                 Key: HADOOP-9970
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9970
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
            Reporter: Ivan Mitic
            Assignee: Ivan Mitic


TaskTracker hung after failed reconnect to the JobTracker. 

This is the problematic piece of code:
{code}
    this.distributedCacheManager = new TrackerDistributedCacheManager(
        this.fConf, taskController);
    this.distributedCacheManager.startCleanupThread();
    
    this.jobClient = (InterTrackerProtocol) 
    UserGroupInformation.getLoginUser().doAs(
        new PrivilegedExceptionAction<Object>() {
      public Object run() throws IOException {
        return RPC.waitForProxy(InterTrackerProtocol.class,
            InterTrackerProtocol.versionID,
            jobTrackAddr, fConf);
      }
    });
{code}

In case RPC.waitForProxy() throws, TrackerDistributedCacheManager cleanup thread will never be stopped, and given that it is a non daemon thread it will keep TT up forever.
