Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-9696:
----------------------------------
It turns out that HDFS-9406 is not related to this issue.
The garbage snapshot filediffs with snapshotId=-1 were being generated by a bug
fixed in HDFS-7056 by [~zero45].
{code}
/** Is this inode in the latest snapshot? */
public final boolean isInLatestSnapshot(final int latestSnapshotId) {
- if (latestSnapshotId == Snapshot.CURRENT_STATE_ID) {
+ if (latestSnapshotId == Snapshot.CURRENT_STATE_ID ||
+ latestSnapshotId == Snapshot.NO_SNAPSHOT_ID) {
return false;
}
{code}
[~shv] explained,

(7) Plamen says this is because Snapshot.findLatestSnapshot() may return
NO_SNAPSHOT_ID, which breaks recordModification() if you don't have that
additional check. We see it when commitBlockSynchronization() is called for
truncated block.

We have actually traced the generation of these filediff entries to
{{commitBlockSynchronization()}} activities when the NN was running 2.5. This
stops in 2.7 thanks to HDFS-7056. However, the garbage lives on until those
files are deleted. Can we have a sanity check during snapshot diff loading so
that these entries can be discarded?

> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.7.2
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee
> Priority: Critical
>
> We have a cluster where the snapshot feature might have been tested years
> ago. When the HDFS does not have any snapshot, but I see filediff records
> persisted in its fsimage. Since it has been restarted many times and
> checkpointed over 100 times since then, it must haven been persisted and
> carried over since then.
