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

Details of the step 6).
{{processIncrementalBlockReport()}} calls {{addBlock()}} for the received IBR 
with the old gen stamp. {{addBlock()}} unconditionally decrements pending count 
for the block.
{code:java}
  void addBlock(DatanodeStorageInfo storageInfo, Block block, String delHint)
      throws IOException {
...
    //
    // Modify the blocks->datanode map and node's map.
    //
    pendingReplications.decrement(block, node);
    processAndHandleReportedBlock(storageInfo, block, ReplicaState.FINALIZED,
        delHintNode);
  }
{code}

In {{processAndHandleReportedBlock()}}, the replica is identified as corrupt, 
so {{markBlockAsCorrupt()}} is called.

{code}
  private void markBlockAsCorrupt(BlockToMarkCorrupt b,
      DatanodeStorageInfo storageInfo,
      DatanodeDescriptor node) throws IOException {
...
    boolean corruptedDuringWrite = minReplicationSatisfied &&
        (b.stored.getGenerationStamp() > b.corrupted.getGenerationStamp());
    // case 1: have enough number of live replicas
    // case 2: corrupted replicas + live replicas > Replication factor
    // case 3: Block is marked corrupt due to failure while writing. In this
    //         case genstamp will be different than that of valid block.
    // In all these cases we can delete the replica.
    // In case of 3, rbw block will be deleted and valid block can be replicated
    if (hasEnoughLiveReplicas || hasMoreCorruptReplicas
        || corruptedDuringWrite) {
      // the block is over-replicated so invalidate the replicas immediately
      invalidateBlock(b, node);
    } else if (namesystem.isPopulatingReplQueues()) {
      // add the block to neededReplication
      updateNeededReplications(b.stored, -1, 0);
    }
  }
{code}

As shown above, it is considered as "case 3", which causes immediate 
invalidation of the corrupt block. No further check on replication is done.

>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Kihwal Lee
>            Assignee: Kihwal Lee
>            Priority: Critical
>
> If a certain set of conditions hold at the time of a file creation, a block 
> of the file can stay under-replicated.  This is because the block is 
> mistakenly taken out of the under-replicated block queue and never gets 
> reevaluated.
> Re-evaluation can be triggered if
> - a replica containing node dies.
> - setrep is called
> - NN repl queues are reinitialized (NN failover or restart)
> If none of these happens, the block stays under-replicated. 
> Here is how it happens.
> 1) A replica is finalized, but the ACK does not reach the upstream in time. 
> IBR is also delayed.
> 2) A close recovery happens, which updates the gen stamp of "healthy" 
> replicas.
> 3) The file is closed with the healthy replicas. It is added to the 
> replication queue.
> 4) A replication is scheduled, so it is added to the pending replication 
> list. The replication target is picked as the failed node in 1).
> 5) The old IBR is finally received for the failed/excluded node. In the 
> meantime, the replication fails, because there is already a finalized replica 
> (with older gen stamp) on the node.
> 6) The IBR processing removes the block from the pending list, adds it to 
> corrupt replicas list, and then issues invalidation. Since the block is in 
> neither replication queue nor pending list, it stays under-replicated.
