Cosmin Lehene commented on HBASE-2358:
--------------------------------------

Todd,

We've just seen this yesterday. It happened on a cluster that was running a 
trunk snapshot from Feburary. It was a fix for the previous "band-aid" and I 
didn't get to look on the HLog code, but I'll give it thorough look. 

Also, I suggest we instrument the code to measure coverage and run a server for 
a while to identify dead or seldom touched code so we could review it.

> doReconstructionLog doesn't handle empty files correctly:
> {code}
>     FileStatus stat = this.fs.getFileStatus(reconstructionLog);
>     if (stat.getLen() <= 0) {
>       LOG.warn("Passed reconstruction log " + reconstructionLog +
>         " is zero-length. Deleting existing file");
>        fs.delete(reconstructionLog, false);
>       return -1;
>     }
> {code}
> Notice it actually compares the length of the array instead of the file 
> length.
> It should call getLen() and delete the file afterwards
> {code}
>    FileStatus stat = this.fs.getFileStatus(reconstructionLog);
>     if (stat.getLen() <= 0) {
>       LOG.warn("Passed reconstruction log " + reconstructionLog +
>         " is zero-length. Deleting existing file");
>        fs.delete(reconstructionLog, false);
>       return -1;
>     }
> {code}
> Also. This is a situation that shouldn't happen as an empty oldlogfile.log 
> should be deleted when HMaster does the split in HLog.splitLog().
> I couldn't figure what would make it leave it there as I also see in the logs 
> that other empty logs are deleted. This might expose a thornier situation.
