Upgrading to JUnit 4.13 causes tests in TestNodeStatusUpdater to fail

    Description

      In our downstream build environment, we're using JUnit 4.13. Recently, we discovered a truly weird test failure in TestNodeStatusUpdater.

      The problem is that timeout handling has changed in Junit 4.13. See the difference between these two snippets:

      4.12

          @Override
          public void evaluate() throws Throwable {
              CallableStatement callable = new CallableStatement();
              FutureTask<Throwable> task = new FutureTask<Throwable>(callable);
              threadGroup = new ThreadGroup("FailOnTimeoutGroup");
              Thread thread = new Thread(threadGroup, task, "Time-limited test");
              thread.setDaemon(true);
              thread.start();
              callable.awaitStarted();
              Throwable throwable = getResult(task, thread);
              if (throwable != null) {
                  throw throwable;
              }
          }
      

       
      4.13

          @Override
          public void evaluate() throws Throwable {
              CallableStatement callable = new CallableStatement();
              FutureTask<Throwable> task = new FutureTask<Throwable>(callable);
              ThreadGroup threadGroup = new ThreadGroup("FailOnTimeoutGroup");
              Thread thread = new Thread(threadGroup, task, "Time-limited test");
              try {
                  thread.setDaemon(true);
                  thread.start();
                  callable.awaitStarted();
                  Throwable throwable = getResult(task, thread);
                  if (throwable != null) {
                      throw throwable;
                  }
              } finally {
                  try {
                      thread.join(1);
                  } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                      Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
                  }
                  try {
                      threadGroup.destroy();  <---- This
                  } catch (IllegalThreadStateException e) {
                      // If a thread from the group is still alive, the ThreadGroup cannot be destroyed.
                      // Swallow the exception to keep the same behavior prior to this change.
                  }
              }
          }
      

      The change comes from https://github.com/junit-team/junit4/pull/1517.

      Unfortunately, destroying the thread group causes an issue because there are all sorts of object caching in the IPC layer. The exception is:

      java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException
      	at java.lang.ThreadGroup.addUnstarted(ThreadGroup.java:867)
      	at java.lang.Thread.init(Thread.java:402)

      	at org.apache.hadoop.yarn.server.nodemanager.TestNodeStatusUpdater.testNodeStatusUpdaterRetryAndNMShutdown(TestNodeStatusUpdater.java:1576)
      

      Both the clientExecutor in org.apache.hadoop.ipc.Client and the client object in ProtobufRpcEngine/ProtobufRpcEngine2 are stored as long as they're needed. But since the backing thread group is destroyed in the previous test, it's no longer possible to create new threads.

      A quick workaround is to stop the clients and completely clear the ClientCache in ProtobufRpcEngine before each testcase. I tried this and it solves the problem but it feels hacky. Not sure if there is a better approach.
