Change to nodemanager build now requires 32-bit libraries
---------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-8099
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8099
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.23.0
         Environment: Centos 6, x86_64
            Reporter: Ralph H Castain


Sometime during the last week, someone committed a change to:

hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-yarn/hadoop-yarn-server/hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager/pom.xml

that inserted a -m32 in:


               <configureEnvironment>
                 <property>
                   <name>CFLAGS</name>
                  <value>-DHADOOP_CONF_DIR=${container-executor.conf.dir} 
-m32</value>


This breaks the build on 64-bit systems that do not have 32-bit libraries 
installed. The change was actually not required as 64-bit support for JNI and 
JVMs is readily available and installed by default on many 64-bit systems. 
Removing the flag results in a completed and functional build.

If mandating 32-bit builds is desired, then a better solution would be to 
provide a configure flag such as -DHADOOP_32bit_MODE, perhaps with a 
corresponding flag for 64-bit. Regardless, locking the system to 32-bit builds 
seems a tad extreme.
