James Clampffer commented on HDFS-9108:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for the patch!  Looks like everything works; I'm going to write a test 
that uses more threads and check it out just to be safe.

Re: I'm surprised that running the inputstream_test under valgrind fails to 
uncover the problem.
>From my understanding of how inputstream_test works (correct me if I'm wrong) 
>it looks like everything is running in a single thread.  So the MockConnection 
>emulates the the various asio calls on the same stack and they'll look more 
>like blocking calls at runtime.  If that's the case the referenced object will 
>still be living on the stack so the reference will point to valid memory and 
>valgrind won't complain.

> Somewhere between InputStream->PositionRead and the asio code the pointer to 
> the destination buffer gets lost.  PositionRead will correctly return the 
> number of bytes read but the buffer won't be filled.
> This only seems to effect the remote_block_reader, RPC calls are working.
> Valgrind error:
> Syscall param recvmsg(msg.msg_iov) points to uninitialised byte(s)
> msg.msg_iov[0] should equal the buffer pointer passed to PositionRead
> Hit when using a promise to make the async call block until completion. 
> auto stat = std::make_shared<std::promise<Status>>();
> std::future<Status> future(stat->get_future());
> size_t readCount = 0;
> auto h = [stat, &readCount,buf](const Status &s, size_t bytes) {
>   stat->set_value(s);
>   readCount = bytes;
> };
> char buf[50];
> inputStream->PositionRead(buf, 50, 0, h);
>   
> //wait for async to finish
> future.get();
