Konstantin Shvachko commented on HDFS-10301:
--------------------------------------------
Vinitha's patch adds one RPC only in the case when block reports are sent in
multiple RPCs. If you choose to send the entire block report in one RPC, then
it will be a single RPC call with her patch as well. It seems logical to have
an extra RPC because you have chosen to split block reports into multiple RPCs.
We are well aware of the NameNode performance problems.
Could you please review the patch.

> Components: namenode
> Affects Versions: 2.6.1

> When NameNode is busy a DataNode can timeout sending a block report. Then it
> sends the block report again. Then NameNode while process these two reports
> at the same time can interleave processing storages from different reports.
> This screws up the blockReportId field, which makes NameNode think that some
> storages are zombie. Replicas from zombie storages are immediately removed,
> causing missing blocks.
