Building HBase

The instructions provided below specify the steps to build HBase version 2.3.3 on Linux on IBM Z for following distributions:

  • RHEL (7.8, 7.9, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3)
  • SLES (12 SP5, 15 SP1, 15 SP2)
  • Ubuntu (18.04, 20.04, 20.10)

General Notes:

  • When following the steps below please use a standard permission user unless otherwise specified.
  • A directory /<source_root>/ will be referred to in these instructions, this is a temporary writable directory anywhere you'd like to place it.

Step 1: Building and Installing HBase

export SOURCE_ROOT=/<source_root>/

1.1) Install dependencies

  • RHEL (7.8, 7.9)

    • With OpenJDK

      sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y git wget maven tar make gcc g++ ant curl unzip
      • Download and install AdoptOpenJDK 8 with OpenJ9 from here.

1.2) Download and install maven (for SLES and RHEL 7.x)

cd $SOURCE_ROOT
wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
tar zxf apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz

1.3) Set environment variable

export JAVA_HOME=<path to java>
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m"
export PATH=$SOURCE_ROOT/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin:$PATH #(for SLES and RHEL 7.x)

1.4) Get the HBase source

cd $SOURCE_ROOT
git clone git://github.com/apache/hbase.git
cd hbase
git checkout rel/2.3.3

1.5) Build Protobuf 2.5.0 till step no.5 and install the Maven artifacts as follows

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.google.protobuf -DartifactId=protoc -Dversion=2.5.0 -Dclassifier=linux-s390_64 -Dpackaging=exe -Dfile=/<v2.5.0 build location>protobuf/src/.libs/protoc

1.6) Build Protobuf 3.11.4

For installing dependencies please follow Step 2: Install the build dependencies from Building 3.x Protobuf

cd $SOURCE_ROOT
git clone https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf.git
cd protobuf
git checkout v3.11.4
git submodule update --init --recursive
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.google.protobuf -DartifactId=protoc -Dversion=3.11.4 -Dclassifier=linux-s390_64 -Dpackaging=exe -Dfile=/<SOURCE_ROOT>/protobuf/src/.libs/protoc

1.7) Build HBase

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<v3.11.4_source_path>/src/.libs:<v2.5.0_source_path>/src/.libs
cd $SOURCE_ROOT/hbase
mvn package -DskipTests

1.8) Run test cases(Optional)

mvn test -fn

Note: Following test failures are observed on s390x

  • Tests which are failing with OpenJDK or AdoptOpenJDK consistently

    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.TestFuzzyRowFilter: This test fails because function java.nio.Bits.unaligned() doesn't return true on s390x. This issue is been tracked here.

    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.procedure2.store.TestProcedureStoreTracker: This test fails due to time out. Increasing surefire.timeout value in pom.xml to around 9000, resolves this test case.

  • Tests which fails with the error SUREFIRE-859: JVMDUMP013I Processed dump event "systhrow", detail java/lang/OutOfMemoryError" can be resolved by increasing the stack size using ulimit -s 9999999 Maven heap can also be increased to address OutOfMemoryError export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx4000m"

  • Tests which are failing intermittently Note: The following is a list of tests which are passed after either increasing the timeout value or rerunning individual test.

    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.TestChoreService
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.TestWeakObjectPool
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.coprocessor.example.TestValueReplacingCompaction
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.TestMultipleColumnPrefixFilter
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.coprocessor.TestSecureExport
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.TestStripeStoreFileManager

  • Tests which are failing with AdoptOpenJDK consistently (which are also observed on x86)

    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.snapshot.TestExportSnapshotNoCluster
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.io.TestHeapSize
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.tool.coprocessor.CoprocessorValidatorTest
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.TestJSONMetricUtil

  • Tests which are failing with OpenJDK consistently (which are also observed on x86)

    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.snapshot.TestExportSnapshotNoCluster
    • org.apache.hadoop.hbase.io.TestHeapSize fails due to the Zero variant of OpenJDK 8 that is supported on s390x. It is also observed on x86 when Zero variant is enabled.

Step 2: Start HBase shell

2.1) Get jffi source code

Note: HBase needs a native library (libjffi-1.2.so: java foreign language interface)

cd $SOURCE_ROOT
wget https://github.com/jnr/jffi/archive/1.2.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf 1.2.0.tar.gz
cd jffi-1.2.0/

2.3) Build with ant

ant jar

Note: There are some test case failures. The library file is created in /<source_root>/jffi-1.2.0/build/jni/libjffi-1.2.so

2.4) Add libjffi-1.2.so to jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar for s390x

mkdir $SOURCE_ROOT/jar_tmp
cp ~/.m2/repository/org/jruby/jruby-complete/9.1.17.0/jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar $SOURCE_ROOT/jar_tmp
cd $SOURCE_ROOT/jar_tmp
jar xf jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar
mkdir jni/s390x-Linux
cp $SOURCE_ROOT/jffi-1.2.0/build/jni/libjffi-1.2.so jni/s390x-Linux
jar uf jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar jni/s390x-Linux/libjffi-1.2.so
mv jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar ~/.m2/repository/org/jruby/jruby-complete/9.1.17.0/jruby-complete-9.1.17.0.jar

2.5) Start HBase shell

cd $SOURCE_ROOT/hbase
bin/start-hbase.sh
bin/hbase shell

Note: On SLES you may get following messages during shell startup

[INFO] Unable to bind key for unsupported operation: up-history
[INFO] Unable to bind key for unsupported operation: down-history

Modify /etc/inputrc and replace up-history by previous-history and down-history by next-history to avoid such messages.
