-------------------------------------
[~busbey], we found the same issue a couple of days ago and [~hitliuyi] is
working on a fix under
[HDFS-7911|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7911] .
> CryptoOutputStream synchronization differences from DFSOutputStream break
> HBase
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-11708
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11708
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Assignee: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Critical
>
> For the write-ahead-log, HBase writes to DFS from a single thread and sends
> sync/flush/hflush from a configurable number of other threads (default 5).
> FSDataOutputStream does not document anything about being thread safe, and it
> is not thread safe for concurrent writes.
> However, DFSOutputStream is thread safe for concurrent writes + syncs. When
> it is the stream FSDataOutputStream wraps, the combination is threadsafe for
> 1 writer and multiple syncs (the exact behavior HBase relies on).
> When HDFS Transparent Encryption is turned on, CryptoOutputStream is inserted
> between FSDataOutputStream and DFSOutputStream. It is proactively labeled as
> not thread safe, and this composition is not thread safe for any operations.
