stack commented on HDFS-6735:
-----------------------------
Interesting CachingStrategy can be changed on a DFSIS post-construction. Could
avoid infolock on cachingstrategy if pre-made the readahead and dropbehinds but
that's probably OTT.
Nice doc'ing of locking strategy around data members.
If we are doing a openInfo call, we can't service a filelength; I suppose thats
how it should be; if we are updating our block info, file length could
change.... and if updating block info, somethings up w/ the block set we
currently have... At least the lock has climbed down from a lock on 'this'.
Good.
Patch LGTM (I like the Colin feedback above). Numbers still pretty good

> In current DFSInputStream impl, there're a couple of coarser-grained locks in
> read/pread path, and it has became a HBase read latency pain point so far. In
> HDFS-6698, i made a minor patch against the first encourtered lock, around
> getFileLength, in deed, after reading code and testing, it shows still other
> locks we could improve.
> In this jira, i'll make a patch against other locks, and a simple test case
> to show the issue and the improved result.
> This is important for HBase application, since in current HFile read path, we
> issue all read()/pread() requests in the same DFSInputStream for one HFile.
> (Multi streams solution is another story i had a plan to do, but probably
> will take more time than i expected)
