Alejandro Abdelnur created HADOOP-8325:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: remove FileSystem JVM shutdown hook that does closeAll()
                 Key: HADOOP-8325
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8325
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
            Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 2.0.0


FileSystem adds a JVM shutdown hook when a filesystem instance is cached.

MRAppMaster also uses a JVM shutdown hook, among other things, the MRAppMaster JVM shutdown hook is used to ensure state are written to HDFS.

This creates a race condition because each JVM shutdown hook is a separate thread and if there are multiple JVM shutdown hooks there is not assurance of order of execution, they could even run in parallel.
