------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-980
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-980
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: name-node
    Affects Versions: 0.22.0
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon


As Dhruba noted 
[here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-909?focusedCommentId=12834051&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12834051]
  there would be substantial benefits to converting the FSNamesystem lock over 
to a ReadWriteLock. The first would be an ability to provide concurrent readers 
with a throughput increase, and the second would be more safety for operations 
like in HDFS-909.
