David Mollitor created HDFS-14864: ------------------------------------- Summary: DatanodeDescriptor Use Concurrent BlockingQueue Key: HDFS-14864 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14864 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: namenode Affects Versions: 3.2.0 Reporter: David Mollitor Assignee: David Mollitor
https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/blockmanagement/DatanodeDescriptor.java#L104-L106 This collection needs to be thread safe and it needs to repeatedly poll the queue to drain it, so use {{BlockingQueue}} which has a {{drain()}} method just for this purpose: {quote} This operation may be more efficient than repeatedly polling this queue. {quote} [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/BlockingQueue.html#drainTo(java.util.Collection,%20int)] Also, the collection returns 'null' if there is nothing to drain from the queue. This is a confusing and error-prone affect. It should just return an empty list. I've also updated the code to be more consistent and to return a java {{List}} in all places instead of a {{List}} in some and a native array in others. This will make the entire usage much more consistent and safe. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
