Manoj Govindassamy commented on HDFS-11644:
-------------------------------------------

[~andrew.wang], [[email protected]],
IMHO, instead of assuming all Syncable implementations supporting 
hflush()/hsync(), we can have the interface additionally expose isSyncable() or 
similar which can be queried to find whether the stream supports 
hflush()/hsync() or not. And, maybe we should have uniform implementation for 
hsync/hflush that either fall back or throw exception.

> DFSStripedOutputStream should not implement Syncable

> FSDataOutputStream#hsync checks if a stream implements Syncable, and if so, 
> calls hsync. Otherwise, it just calls flush. This is used, for instance, by 
> YARN's FileSystemTimelineWriter.
> DFSStripedOutputStream extends DFSOutputStream, which implements Syncable. 
> However, DFSStripedOS throws a runtime exception when the Syncable methods 
> are called.
> We should refactor the inheritance structure so DFSStripedOS does not 
> implement Syncable.
