> Improve InputStream when read spans two blocks

>                 Key: HDFS-6596

> In the current implementation of DFSInputStream, read(buffer, offset, length) 
> is implemented as following:
> {code}
> int realLen = (int) Math.min(len, (blockEnd - pos + 1L));
> if (locatedBlocks.isLastBlockComplete()) {
>   realLen = (int) Math.min(realLen, locatedBlocks.getFileLength());
> }
> int result = readBuffer(strategy, off, realLen, corruptedBlockMap);
> {code}
> From the above code, we can conclude that the read will return at most 
> (blockEnd - pos + 1) bytes. As a result, when read spans two blocks, the 
> caller must call read() second time to complete the request, and must wait 
> second time to acquire the DFSInputStream lock(read() is synchronized for 
> DFSInputStream). For latency sensitive applications, such as hbase, this will 
> result in latency pain point when they under massive race conditions. So here 
> we propose that we should loop internally in read() to do best effort read.
> In the current implementation of pread(read(position, buffer, offset, 
> lenght)), it does loop internally to do best effort read. So we can refactor 
> to support this on normal read.
