Hairong Kuang commented on HADOOP-7013: --------------------------------------- On a second thought, Hadoop does not have a story for Writable backward compatibility yet. So this patch does not need to take care of this either. Instead we could simply mark this jira as incompatible. So a +1 from me. > Add boolean field isCorrupt to BlockLocation > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7013 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7013 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Patrick Kling > Attachments: HADOOP-7013.patch > > > This is needed to allow DFSClient.getBlockLocations to notify the calling > application when returning a BlockLocation that corresponds to a corrupt > block.
