> This bug is reported by the findBugs tool, which is a static analysis tool.
> Bug: Synchronization on Integer in org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.compactions.CompactSelection.emptyFileList()
> The code synchronizes on a boxed primitive constant, such as an Integer.
> {code}
> private static Integer count = 0;
> ...
>   synchronized(count) {
>      count++;
>      }
> ...
> {code}
> Since Integer objects can be cached and shared, this code could be synchronizing on the same object as other, unrelated code, leading to unresponsiveness and possible deadlock
> See CERT CON08-J. Do not synchronize on objects that may be reused for more information.
> Confidence: Normal, Rank: Troubling (14)
> Pattern: DL_SYNCHRONIZATION_ON_BOXED_PRIMITIVE 
> Type: DL, Category: MT_CORRECTNESS (Multithreaded correctness)
