Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-15625:
-----------------------------------------
Patch is better, but I think we still need to handle the situation of s3guard
getFileStatus may not have etag...if the tag is null then it mustn't be used in
the parameters of the GET....but the first GET which returns data will return
that etag, which can then be attached to future requests
> S3A input stream to use etags to detect changed source files

> S3A input stream doesn't handle changing source files any better than the
> other cloud store connectors. Specifically: it doesn't noticed it has
> changed, caches the length from startup, and whenever a seek triggers a new
> GET, you may get one of: old data, new data, and even perhaps go from new
> data to old data due to eventual consistency.
> We can't do anything to stop this, but we could detect changes by
> # caching the etag of the first HEAD/GET (we don't get that HEAD on open with
> S3Guard, BTW)
> # on future GET requests, verify the etag of the response
> # raise an IOE if the remote file changed during the read.
> It's a more dramatic failure, but it stops changes silently corrupting things.
