Xiao Chen commented on HDFS-9405: --------------------------------- Thanks Andrew. Will address the comments, except: bq. Do we need this check? The sleep right before it will throw InterruptedException and clear the interrupted status. The reason for this is to handle {{shutdownNow}} - in which case the runnable will be interrupted. If we happen to be not in {{Thread.sleep}} block, we should exit. right? bq. It looks like we're trying to ride out KMS downtime, so is there a downside to retrying indefinitely? I think retrying definitely would be the KISS solution. I feel configuration won't help much for most users. Retry interval maybe good to be configurable. Will change into this manner if no objections. > When starting a file, NameNode should generate EDEK in a separate thread > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-9405 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9405 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: encryption, namenode > Affects Versions: 2.7.1 > Reporter: Zhe Zhang > Assignee: Xiao Chen > Attachments: HDFS-9405.01.patch, HDFS-9405.02.patch, > HDFS-9405.03.patch, HDFS-9405.04.patch, HDFS-9405.05.patch, > HDFS-9405.06.patch, HDFS-9405.07.patch, HDFS-9405.08.patch > > > {{generateEncryptedDataEncryptionKey}} involves a non-trivial I/O operation > to the key provider, which could be slow or cause timeout.
