Support reading on un-closed SequenceFile
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-6307
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6307
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: io
            Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE


When a SequenceFile.Reader is constructed, it calls 
fs.getFileStatus(file).getLen().  However, fs.getFileStatus(file).getLen() does 
not return the hflushed length for un-closed file since the Namenode does not 
know the hflushed length.  DFSClient have to ask a datanode for the length last 
block which is being written; see also HDFS-570.
