Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12444:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks for the patch on EOF

FWIW, you'd have caught this problem on running the S3a contract tests —and 
been able to turn it off by editing the contract-test options.xml. Some other 
filesystems (real posix ones) don't faill on a seek past the end, but only on 
the read (they have to allow for a write). Anyway, what you have done at least 
makes it consistent with HDFS.

However, I do have a strict policy regarding testing here, namely you have to 
have run it yourself against at least one AWS instance. And I have to insistt 
on that for everyone to avoid being seen as relaxing the criteria for some 
patches 
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute#Submitting_patches_against_object_stores_such_as_Amazon_S3.2C_OpenStack_Swift_and_Microsoft_Azure

Have you done it yet, and if so which one?

thanks

> - Currently, "read(long position, byte[] buffer, int offset, int length)" is 
> not implemented in S3AInputStream (unlike DFSInputStream). So, 
> "readFully(long position, byte[] buffer, int offset, int length)" in 
> S3AInputStream goes through the default implementation of seek(), read(), 
> seek() in FSInputStream. 
> - However, seek() in S3AInputStream involves re-opening of connection to S3 
> everytime 
> (https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-tools/hadoop-aws/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/fs/s3a/S3AInputStream.java#L115).
>   
> - It would be good to consider having a lazy seek implementation to reduce 
> connection overheads to S3. (e.g Presto implements lazy seek.
