Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-9876:
-------------------------------------------

excessTypes should be computed if it is needed.  Let's move it inside 
{code}
if (candidates.size() > 1) {
  .. 
} {code}


> shouldProcessOverReplicated should not count number of pending replicas

> Currently when checking if we should process over-replicated block in 
> {{addStoredBlock}}, we count both the number of reported replicas and pending 
> replicas. However, {{processOverReplicatedBlock}} chooses excess replicas 
> only among all the reported storages of the block. So in a situation where we 
> have over-replicated replica/internal blocks which only reside in the pending 
> queue, we will not be able to choose any extra replica to delete.
> For contiguous blocks, this causes {{chooseExcessReplicasContiguous}} to do 
> nothing. But for striped blocks, this may cause endless loop in 
> {{chooseExcessReplicasStriped}} in the following while loop:
> {code}
>       while (candidates.size() > 1) {
>         List<DatanodeStorageInfo> replicasToDelete = placementPolicy
>             .chooseReplicasToDelete(nonExcess, candidates, (short) 1,
>                 excessTypes, null, null);
> {code}
