Doug Cutting commented on HDFS-1077:
------------------------------------
These fall into two categories:
- versionRequest and reportBadBlocks, otherwise identical methods duplicated
in multiple protocols. These could perhaps be moved to a shared common
interfaces. Alternately we could try to get Avro to ignore multiple identical
methods (same name and parameters). The simplest change would be just to
rename one of them, so that each protocol had a unique method name and they did
not collide when combined in the namenode.
- delete, rename and errorReport are overloaded with different parameter
lists. These are best renamed, as they're different messages with different
semantics.
Renaming any of these would not be incompatible, since RPC methods are not
currently public.
