Description

The new AsyncRpcClient feature added through the jira defect HBASE-12684 causing some test cases failures in powerpc64 environment.
I am testing it in master branch.

Looks like the version of netty (4.0.23) doesn't provide a support for non amd64 platforms and suggested to use pure java netty
Here is the discussion on that https://github.com/aphyr/riemann/pull/508

So new Async test cases will fail in ppc64 and other non amd64 platforms too.

Here is the output of the error.
