[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-5748) Potential null pointer deference in ShuffleHandler#Shuffle#messageReceived()

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5748?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13937070#comment-13937070 ] 

Hussein Baghdadi commented on MAPREDUCE-5748:
---------------------------------------------

mapIds is already checked for null values:

      // line 472
     [code]
      if (mapIds == null || reduceQ == null || jobQ == null) {
        sendError(ctx, "Required param job, map and reduce", BAD_REQUEST);
        return;
      }
     [/code]

>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Ted Yu
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Starting around line 510:
> {code}
>       ChannelFuture lastMap = null;
>       for (String mapId : mapIds) {
> ...
>       }
>       lastMap.addListener(metrics);
>       lastMap.addListener(ChannelFutureListener.CLOSE);
> {code}
> If mapIds is empty, lastMap would remain null, leading to NPE in addListener() call.
