Mahadev konar updated HADOOP-343:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: bugfix.patch

This patch updates its mapoutput locations in case of any failures on copying 
from the task tracker. So, in case a copy failed from a task tracker, the map 
outputs corresponding to this node will be marked stale. The ReduceTask will 
ask for the mapout locations again for these stale map outputs. This patch also 
fixes a bug wherein the tasks keep polling the job tracker for map otputs "in a 
loop" without sleeping/waiting. With this fix the tasks will poll evry 
MIN_POLL_INTERVAL before querying the job tracker. 

> In case of dead task tracker, the copy mapouts try copying all mapoutputs 
> from this tasktracker

> In case of a dead task tracker, the reduces which do not have the updated map 
> out locations try copygin files from this node and since there are failures 
> on copying, this leads to backoff and slowing down of the copy pahse.
