Akira AJISAKA commented on HDFS-7744:
-------------------------------------
Thanks Colin for the report and the patch. Mostly looks good to me. Two
comments:
# I suppose the name of the test method would be inconsistent with the added
test case. Would you create a new test method (such as
testSeekAfterCloseBlockReader) and add the test case there?
# (minor) Would you reverse the order to "{{fis.read() != -1}}" for code
readability?
{code}
+ Assert.assertTrue(-1 != fis.read());

> Fix a potential NPE in DFSInputStream after setDropBehind or setReadahead is
> called. These functions clear the {{blockReader}}, but don't set
> {{blockEnd}} to -1, which could lead to {{DFSInputStream#seek}} attempting to
> derference {{blockReader}} even though it is {{null}}.
