Summary: Namenode deadlock in branch-1 Key: HDFS-3846 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3846 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: name-node Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE Assignee: Brandon Li Jitendra found out the following problem: 1. Handler : Acquires namesystem lock waits on SafemodeInfo lock at SafeModeInfo.isOn() 2. SafemodeMonitor : Calls SafeModeInfo.canLeave() which is synchronized so SafemodeInfo lock is acquired, but this method also causes following call sequence needEnter() -> getNumLiveDataNodes() -> getNumberOfDatanodes() -> getDatanodeListForReport() -> getDatanodeListForReport() . The getDatanodeListForReport is synchronized with FSNamesystem lock. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
