Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-2551: ----------------------------------- bq. One way to fix this would be to call hdfsClose in the fuse flush() method This would be way too slow -- shutting down and reconstructing the pipeline, multiple round trips to NN, etc. flush() is used for applications like WALs which would kill performance here > fuse-dfs's close() is asynchronous > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2551 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2551 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: fuse-dfs > Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 0.23.0 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > > FUSE's "release" operation is called asynchronously when a file is closed > from userspace. This means that, if a program writes a file, closes it, and > immediately re-opens it, it might not succeed. We should figure out some > workaround or trick to make close synchronous, if possible. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
