Duo Zhang commented on HADOOP-12910:
------------------------------------

I plan to pick up HDFS-916. Most works will be done there. But we need to reach 
an agreement on the AsyncFileSystem API here. Future is not enough, at least we 
need a callback support.

I will write a proposal soon. Just came back to China. Just adapt to the time 
zone of Bay Area and now I need to adapt to the time zone of Beijing again...

Thanks.

> Add a new API, namely FutureFileSystem (or AsynchronousFileSystem, if it is a 
> better name).  All the APIs in FutureFileSystem are the same as FileSystem 
> except that the return type is wrapped by Future, e.g.
> {code}
>   //FileSystem
>   public boolean rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
>   //FutureFileSystem
>   public Future<Boolean> rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
> {code}
> Note that FutureFileSystem does not extend FileSystem.
