             Summary: Process block reports for erasure coded blocks
                 Key: HDFS-7652
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7652
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Zhe Zhang
            Assignee: Zhe Zhang


HDFS-7339 adds support in NameNode for persisting block groups. For memory 
efficiency, erasure coded blocks under the striping layout are not stored in 
{{BlockManager#blocksMap}}. Instead, entire block groups are stored in 
{{BlockGroupManager#blockGroups}}. When a block report arrives from the 
DataNode, it should be processed under the block group that it belongs to. The 
following naming protocol is used to calculate the group of a given block:
{code}
 * HDFS-EC introduces a hierarchical protocol to name blocks and groups:
 * Contiguous: {reserved block IDs | flag | block ID}
 * Striped: {reserved block IDs | flag | block group ID | index in group}
 *
 * Following n bits of reserved block IDs, The (n+1)th bit in an ID
 * distinguishes contiguous (0) and striped (1) blocks. For a striped block,
 * bits (n+2) to (64-m) represent the ID of its block group, while the last m
 * bits represent its index of the group. The value m is determined by the
 * maximum number of blocks in a group (MAX_BLOCKS_IN_GROUP).
