> Key: HDFS-7943
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7943
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.7.0
> Reporter: Jing Zhao
> Assignee: Jing Zhao
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: HDFS-7943.000.patch, HDFS-7943.001.patch

> In HDFS-3689, we remove the restriction from concat that all the source files
> should have the same preferred block size with the target file. This can
> cause a file to contain blocks with size larger than its preferred block size.
> If such block happens to be the last block of a file, and later we append
> data to the file without the {{CreateFlag.NEW_BLOCK}} flag (i.e., appending
> data to the last block), looks like the current client code will keep writing
> to the last block and never allocate a new block.
