Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-5027:
--------------------------------------
> What do you mean "done by NN"?
I meant all the changes go through NN.
Note that a patch was attached but the fix is not described anywhere in the
jira. Finally I read the patch.
Looking at the patch now, it looks like you do (correctly) consider it an
error if reported gs is larger than stored gs.From the description of the jira,
I thought NN might consider new reported gs as the correct one. Btw, the patch
just ignores such a block with a warning..., should it also delete such a block?
> Block report processing should compare gneration stamp

> If a reported block has a different generation stamp then the one stored in
> the NameNode, the reported block will be considered as invalid. This is
> incorrect since blocks with larger generation stamp are valid.
