Kai Zheng commented on HADOOP-11646:
------------------------------------

bq.{{isErased}}, Do you mean is block is missing and needs to re-construct?
Yes right. We have two cases, one is lost at all, the other is corrupt. I guess 
both can be thought of as erased or bad due to erasure, and should consider 
reconstruction. I updated the comment here.
bq.Why there are two separate methods with same params. 
I'm thinking that there can be some common pre-checking and error handling 
logic for all coder implementations in {{decode}} method before the call 
{{performDecoding}}, though I don't have the codes for now.

For #3, #4, #5, #6, I followed and updated the codes accordingly. Thanks for 
the great suggestions.

> This is to define ErasureCoder API for encoding and decoding of BlockGroup. 
> Given a BlockGroup, ErasureCoder extracts data chunks from the blocks and 
> leverages RawErasureCoder defined in HDFS-7353 to perform concrete encoding 
> or decoding.
