Ahmed Hussein commented on HDFS-15627:
--------------------------------------

[~jianghuazhu], this patch does not delete "Audit-log".
The patch changes the order in which the delete event is into the audit-log, 
moving it up to be done before incremental deletes.
The tweak is suggested by [~daryn] to make debugging easier. [~daryn] noticed 
that the audit-log has a lag in recording the delete-event. As a result, when 
you check the audit-log, you might not see anything there. However, audit-log 
for delete event was pending because there are so many incremental deletes.

> Audit log deletes after edit is written

> Deletes currently collect blocks in the write lock, write the edit, 
> incrementally block delete, finally +audit log+. It should be collect blocks, 
> edit log, +audit log+, incremental delete. Once the edit is durable it's 
> consistent to audit log the delete. There is no sense in deferring the audit 
> into the indeterminate future.
> The problem occurs when thereto server hung due to large deletes but it won't 
> be easy to identify the problem. That should have been easily identified as 
> the first delete logged after the hang.
