Hairong Kuang commented on HDFS-1057:
-------------------------------------

> 1. CRC error1: BlockSender is created when data length is > metadata length. 
Could you please explain what do you mean data length and meatadata length?

> Concurrent readers hit ChecksumExceptions if following a writer to very end 
> of file

> In BlockReceiver.receivePacket, it calls replicaInfo.setBytesOnDisk before 
> calling flush(). Therefore, if there is a concurrent reader, it's possible to 
> race here - the reader will see the new length while those bytes are still in 
> the buffers of BlockReceiver. Thus the client will potentially see checksum 
> errors or EOFs. Additionally, the last checksum chunk of the file is made 
> accessible to readers even though it is not stable.
