Ramkumar Vadali updated HDFS-1461: ---------------------------------- Attachment: HDFS-1461.patch This patch introduces a RAID-friendly constructor for {{BlockSender}}. This constructor does not need a {{DataNode}} object, and works with streams instead. The common code between the new and old constructors is refactored to a function {{initialize()}} I ran the HDFS unit tests and I did not see any new failure from trunk. > Refactor hdfs.server.datanode.BlockSender > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1461 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1461 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: data-node > Reporter: Ramkumar Vadali > Assignee: Ramkumar Vadali > Attachments: HDFS-1461.patch > > > BlockSender provides the functionality to send a block to a data node. But > the current implementation requires the source of the block to be a data > node. The RAID contrib project needs the functionality of sending a block to > a data node, but cannot use hdfs.server.datanode.BlockSender because the > constructor requires a datanode object. > MAPREDUCE-2132 provides the motivation for this. > The purpose of this jira is to refactor hdfs.server.datanode.BlockSender to > have another constructor that does not need a DataNode object. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
