    Description

      In the INMEMORY_COMPACTION_POOL ThreadPoolExecutor for every thread the current thread name is also appended. Since we are using a pool the name gets appended and we end up in names like this

      "B.defaultRpcServer.handler=89,queue=9,port=16041-inmemoryCompactions-1465492533442-inmemoryCompactions-1465492548754-inmemoryCompactions-1465492548913-inmemoryCompactions-1465492549625-inmemoryCompactions-1465492549956-inmemoryCompactions-1465492567040-inmemoryCompactions-1465492567160-inmemoryCompactions-1465492578465-inmemoryCompactions-1465492578707-inmemoryCompactions-1465492579292-inmemoryCompactions-1465492579357-inmemoryCompactions-1465492579786-inmemoryCompactions-1465492580059-inmemoryCompactions-1465492589975-inmemoryCompactions-1465492590192-inmemoryCompactions-1465492590484-inmemoryCompactions-1465492591144-inmemoryCompactions-1465492592603-inmemoryCompactions-1465492592799-inmemoryCompactions-1465492597106-inmemoryCompactions-1465492602925-inmemoryCompactions-1465492606620-inmemoryCompactions-1465492651478-inmemoryCompactions-1465492653460-inmemoryCompactions-1465492677020-inmemoryCompactions-1465492680857-inmemoryCompactions-1465492681989-inmemoryCompactions-1465492721818-inmemoryCompactions-1465492723562-inmemoryCompactions-1465492724801-inmemoryCompactions-1465492726665-inmemoryCompactions-1465492745750-inmemoryCompactions-1465492745964-inmemoryCompactions-1465492746578-inmemoryCompactions-1465492756867-inmemoryCompactions-1465492764727-inmemoryCompactions-1465492766944-inmemoryCompactions-1465492767098-inmemoryCompactions-1465492785298-inmemoryCompactions-1465492788334-inmemoryCompactions-1465492795954-inmemoryCompactions-1465493047265-inmemoryCompactions-1465493091530-inmemoryCompactions-1465493185684" #6006 daemon prio=5 os_prio=0 tid=0x000000000daa6800 nid=0x454a runnable [0x00007f50fd0b9000]
      

      As we were surprised to see why so many threads are getting created as Anoop pointed out the pool size is 10 and there is no setting for the thread to die, the reason for this issue is that we have an multi threaded issue in MemstoreCompactor. The memstoreCompactor has the StoreScanner and MemstoreScanner as the state variable and every time we just instantiate a new one when a new inmemory flush request comes. Finally we try to release the resource where the scanner is nullified and closed. But the instance would have already been updated or nullified by another thread when there are multiple requests. So this causes an NPE in releaseResources.

      Exception in thread "B.defaultRpcServer.handler=76,queue=6,port=16041-inmemoryCompactions-1465906554314" java.lang.NullPointerException
              at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.MemStoreCompactor.releaseResources(MemStoreCompactor.java:108)
              at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.MemStoreCompactor.doCompaction(MemStoreCompactor.java:144)
              at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.MemStoreCompactor.startCompaction(MemStoreCompactor.java:88)
              at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.CompactingMemStore.flushInMemory(CompactingMemStore.java:287)
              at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.CompactingMemStore$InMemoryFlushRunnable.run(CompactingMemStore.java:356)
              at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1142)
              at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:617)
      

      So every time the thread dies and a new is created which I found from the stack traces by adding some logs. So this is why we were creating lot of threads and the name was simply getting appened. Now from this we can see that adding the Handler name is fine but the main issue is the NPE.
