Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-8254:
-------------------------------------------

[~walter.k.su], I aware that the implementation cannot tolerate some test cases 
with different lengths.  Will fix them separately since I don't want to make 
the patch too complicated.  Thanks for studying the test cases and the causes!

> In StripedDataStreamer, it is hard to tolerate datanode failure in the 
> leading streamer

> StripedDataStreamer javadoc is shown below.
> {code}
>  * The StripedDataStreamer class is used by {@link DFSStripedOutputStream}.
>  * There are two kinds of StripedDataStreamer, leading streamer and ordinary
>  * stream. Leading streamer requests a block group from NameNode, unwraps
>  * it to located blocks and transfers each located block to its corresponding
>  * ordinary streamer via a blocking queue.
> {code}
> Leading streamer is the streamer with index 0.  When the datanode of the 
> leading streamer fails, the other steamers cannot continue since no one will 
> request a block group from NameNode anymore.
