> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9679
> Project: Hadoop HDFS

>
> There is at least 1 minor inconsistency with the libhdfs api. Currently
> hdfsSeek returns a 32 bit int to indicate the result offset of a seek,
> similar to a posix lseek. It should return 1 and 0 as error codes. If
> someone starts using hdfsSeek like they would lseek everything works great -
> until you have an >4GB offset and the upper bits are truncated.
