Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-7645:
--------------------------------------------

I think we should get rid of trash and just always create a previous/ directory 
when doing rolling upgrade, the same as we do with regular upgrade.  The speed 
is clearly acceptable since we've done these upgrades in the field when 
switching to the blockid-based layout with no problems.  And it will be a lot 
more maintainable and less confusing.

> Rolling upgrade is restoring blocks from trash multiple times

>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: datanode
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
>            Reporter: Nathan Roberts
>
> When performing an HDFS rolling upgrade, the trash directory is getting 
> restored twice when under normal circumstances it shouldn't need to be 
> restored at all. iiuc, the only time these blocks should be restored is if we 
> need to rollback a rolling upgrade. 
> On a busy cluster, this can cause significant and unnecessary block churn 
> both on the datanodes, and more importantly in the namenode.
> The two times this happens are:
> 1) restart of DN onto new software
> {code}
>   private void doTransition(DataNode datanode, StorageDirectory sd,
>       NamespaceInfo nsInfo, StartupOption startOpt) throws IOException {
>     if (startOpt == StartupOption.ROLLBACK && sd.getPreviousDir().exists()) {
>       Preconditions.checkState(!getTrashRootDir(sd).exists(),
>           sd.getPreviousDir() + " and " + getTrashRootDir(sd) + " should not 
> " +
>           " both be present.");
>       doRollback(sd, nsInfo); // rollback if applicable
>     } else {
>       // Restore all the files in the trash. The restored files are retained
>       // during rolling upgrade rollback. They are deleted during rolling
>       // upgrade downgrade.
>       int restored = restoreBlockFilesFromTrash(getTrashRootDir(sd));
>       LOG.info("Restored " + restored + " block files from trash.");
>     }
> {code}
> 2) When heartbeat response no longer indicates a rollingupgrade is in progress
> {code}
>   /**
>    * Signal the current rolling upgrade status as indicated by the NN.
>    * @param inProgress true if a rolling upgrade is in progress
>    */
>   void signalRollingUpgrade(boolean inProgress) throws IOException {
>     String bpid = getBlockPoolId();
>     if (inProgress) {
>       dn.getFSDataset().enableTrash(bpid);
>       dn.getFSDataset().setRollingUpgradeMarker(bpid);
>     } else {
>       dn.getFSDataset().restoreTrash(bpid);
>       dn.getFSDataset().clearRollingUpgradeMarker(bpid);
>     }
>   }
> {code}
> HDFS-6800 and HDFS-6981 were modifying this behavior making it not completely 
> clear whether this is somehow intentional.
