existingInodes.addAll(reader.updateTailFiles());
exception with :
java.nio.file.FileSystemException: /data/log/td/s001/20190330: Too many open files
if (!existingInodes.isEmpty()) will skip to witer.close()
then

> TailDirSource will write an empty position json file
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-3308
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-3308
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Environment: Flume 1.8, TailDirSource
> Reporter: Xingxing Di
> Priority: Critical
>
> We found TailDirSource has a critical issue while writing position json file:
> 1.In the "process" method, existingInodes.clear() then existingInodes.addAll() is
not safe, in positionWriter thread will read an empty existingInodes with no lock ( just
after clear() executed and addAll() method not called yet), this will cause an empty json
string.
> 2.The FileWriter is not atomic, the position json file is over 5M in our case(which is
big), after we fix the above issue, we still read an empty position json file occasionally.
> If flume was restarted and read an empty position json file, flume will tail all files
from begining, which is critical!
> So we make a little change :
> # Add lock for existingInodes list, and in positionWriter thread we make a copy
of existingInodes everytime.
> # We replace FileWriter with an AtomicFileWriter.
> Later i will make a PR to share this.
