> Before 0.18, when Datanode restarts, it deletes files under data-dir/tmp  
> directory since these files are not valid anymore. But in 0.18 it moves these 
> files to normal directory incorrectly making them valid blocks. One of the 
> following would work :
> - remove the tmp files during upgrade, or
> - if the files under /tmp are in pre-18 format (i.e. no generation), delete 
> them.
> Currently effect of this bug is that, these files end up failing block 
> verification and eventually get deleted. But cause incorrect over-replication 
> at the namenode before that.
> Also it looks like our policy regd treating files under tmp needs to be 
> defined better. Right now there are probably one or two more bugs with it. 
> Dhruba, please file them if you rememeber.
