Jothi Padmanabhan commented on HADOOP-5266:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks for those initial comments. I will add javadoc for MarkableIterable and
make ReduceContext#backupStore private.
The reason why BackupStore is public is because I need to access this from the
mapreduce package as well.
> Values Iterator should support "mark" and "reset"

> Some users have expressed interest in having a mark-reset functionality on
> values iterator. Users can call mark() at any point during the iteration
> process and a subsequent reset() should move the iterator to the last value
> emitted when mark() was called.
