Li Bo commented on HDFS-7653:
-----------------------------

This patch includes block readers and writers that will be used by client and 
datanode. Because there exists BlockReader interface, we named a new interface 
called UnifiedBlockReader. Its sub classes include: ClientBlockReader(read a 
block from client), LocalDatanodeBlockReader(read a local block, used inside 
datanode), RemoteDatanodeBlockReader(read a block from remote datanode, used 
inside datanode). BlockWriter's sub classes include: ClientBlockWriter(write a 
block form client), LocalDatanodeBlockWriter(write a block locally, used inside 
datanode), RemoteDatanodeBlockWriter(write a block to a remote datanode, used 
inside datanode). Two unit tests are also uploaded.
Welcome to your feedback.

> There're a lot of block read/write operations in HDFS-EC, for example, when 
> client writes a file in striping layout, client has to write several blocks 
> to several different datanodes; if a datanode wants to do an 
> encoding/decoding task, it has to read several blocks from itself and other 
> datanodes, and writes one or more blocks to itself or other datanodes.
