Konstantin Shvachko commented on HADOOP-3187:
---------------------------------------------

- FSDirectory.removeChild() should throw QuotaExceededException rather than 
IOException
- could you please add comments to the ignored catch IOException esp, in 
FSDirectory.unprotectedRenameTo().
It took me a while to realize that you just postpone processing of this till 
the next if statement.
The comment can say something like  // srcChild == null; goto if statement.
- FSDirectory.updateCount() is a confusing name. Can we rename it to 
updateSiblingCount() or updateCountOfChildren().
- I think INodeDirectoryWithQuota should stay inside INode.java. Otherwise all 
other subclasses should be factored out too.
- Public class QuotaExceededException needs JavaDoc comments.
- As long as the external API (ContentSummary) has long file counters I am fine 
with the implementation that has integer counters.
This makes it an implementation restriction (changeable on demand) rather than 
a global file system restriction.

The patch looks good.
