DFSClient does not treat write timeout of 0 properly
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5464
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.17.0
            Reporter: Raghu Angadi
            Assignee: Raghu Angadi



{{dfs.datanode.socket.write.timeout}} is used for sockets to and from 
datanodes. It is 8 minutes by default. Some users set this to 0, effectively 
disabling the write timeout (for some specific reasons). 

When this is set to 0, DFSClient sets the timeout to 5 seconds by mistake while 
writing to DataNodes. This is exactly the opposite of real intention of setting 
it to 0 since 5 seconds is too short.
