------------------------------------
Priority: Critical (was: Major)
> Add a way to dump stack traces for impala-shell while it is running
> -------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: IMPALA-13230
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-13230
> Project: IMPALA

> Components: Clients
> Affects Versions: Impala 4.5.0
> Reporter: Joe McDonnell
> Assignee: Joe McDonnell
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: Impala 4.5.0

> It can be useful to get the Python stack traces for impala-shell when it is
> stuck. There is a nice thread on Stack Overflow about how to do this:
> [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/132058/showing-the-stack-trace-from-a-running-python-application]
> One option is to install a signal handler for the SIGUSR1 signal and use that
> to dump a backtrace. I tried this and it works for Python 3 (but causes
> issues for running queries on Python 2):
> {noformat}
> # For debugging, it is useful to handle the SIGUSR1 symbol and use it to
> print a
> # stacktrace
> signal.signal(signal.SIGUSR1, lambda sid, stack:
> traceback.print_stack(stack)){noformat}
> Another option mentioned is the faulthandler module
> ([https://docs.python.org/dev/library/faulthandler.html|https://docs.python.org/dev/library/faulthandler.html)]
> ), which provides a way to do the same thing. The faulthandler module seems
> to be able to do this for all threads, not just the main thread.
> Either way, this would give us some options if we need to debug impala-shell
> out in the wild.
