-----------------------------------

             Summary: Snapshot read can reveal future bytes if snapshotted 
while writing
                 Key: HDFS-10825
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10825
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: hdfs
    Affects Versions: 2.7.2
         Environment: HDFS-2.7.2, see attached unittest file.
            Reporter: Abhishek Rai


The following sequence of steps will produce extra bytes, that should not be 
visible, because they are not in the snapshot.

- Create a new file for writing.
- Write "hello world"
- Invoke hsync() on the file handle.
- Create a snapshot, keep the file open.
- Append another "hello world" string to the same file handle.
- Close the file.
- Read file in the snapshot (not the current file).
- Output is "hello worldhello world" instead of the expected snapshot contents 
of "hello world".
