Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-7587:
----------------------------------
Is it possible for the last block size to be greater than the preferred block
size?
{code}
+ final long diff = (file.getPreferredBlockSize() -
lastBlock.getNumBytes())
+ * file.getBlockReplication();
{code}
> Edit log corruption can happen if append fails with a quota violation

> We have seen a standby namenode crashing due to edit log corruption. It was
> complaining that {{OP_CLOSE}} cannot be applied because the file is not
> under-construction.
> When a client was trying to append to the file, the remaining space quota was
> very small. This caused a failure in {{prepareFileForWrite()}}, but after the
> inode was already converted for writing and a lease added. Since these were
> not undone when the quota violation was detected, the file was left in
> under-construction with an active lease without edit logging {{OP_ADD}}.
> A subsequent {{append()}} eventually caused a lease recovery after the soft
> limit period. This resulted in {{commitBlockSynchronization()}}, which closed
> the file with {{OP_CLOSE}} being logged. Since there was no corresponding
> {{OP_ADD}}, edit replaying could not apply this.
