Xiaowei Zhu commented on HDFS-10543:
------------------------------------
Thanks Colin for the review. I believe this patch still supports short reads,
just it won't automatically stop and return at block boundary. Obviously the
test should not log something looks like an error, which should be fixed.
So read stop at block boundary is by design? In that case we should also revert
this commit.

> Reproducer:
> char *buf2 = new char[file_info->mSize];
> memset(buf2, 0, (size_t)file_info->mSize);
> int ret = hdfsRead(fs, file, buf2, file_info->mSize);
> delete [] buf2;
> if(ret != file_info->mSize) {
> std::stringstream ss;
> ss << "tried to read " << file_info->mSize << " bytes. but read " <<
> ret << " bytes";
> ReportError(ss.str());
> hdfsCloseFile(fs, file);
> continue;
> }
> When it runs with a file ~1.4GB large, it will return an error like "tried to
> read 1468888890 bytes. but read 134217728 bytes". The HDFS cluster it runs
> against has a block size of 134217728 bytes. So it seems hdfsRead will stop
> at a block boundary. Looks like a regression. We should add retry to continue
> reading cross blocks in case of files w/ multiple blocks.
