[jira] [Created] (FLINK-7444) Make external calls non-blocking

Till Rohrmann created FLINK-7444:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Make external calls non-blocking
                 Key: FLINK-7444
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7444
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Distributed Coordination
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Till Rohrmann
            Assignee: Till Rohrmann


All external calls from a {{RpcEndpoint}} can be potentially blocking, e.g. calls to the {{FatalErrorHandler}}. Therefore, I propose to make all these calls coming from the {{RpcEndpoint's}} main thread non-blocking by running them in an {{Executor}}. That way the main thread will never be blocked.
