Ravi Prakash commented on HDFS-2848:
------------------------------------
I was experimenting more and I noticed that after restarting the cluster, if I
try to cat the file it finally notices the corruption. So we definitely have an
inconsistency that we should fix.
> hdfs corruption appended to blocks is not detected by fs commands or fsck

> Appears that there is a regression in corrupt block detection by both fsck
> and fs cmds like 'cat'. Testcases for
> pre-block and block-overwrite corruption of all replicas is correctly
> reporting errors however post-block corruption is
> not, fsck on the filesystem reports it's Healthy and 'cat' returns without
> error. Looking at the DN blocks themselves,
> they clearly contain the injected corruption pattern.
