Chris Douglas commented on HDFS-13330:
--------------------------------------

bq. Instead of fixing this jira, I am more inclined to revert HDFS-8979 which 
already broke 2 other functionalities.
To be fair to HDFS-8979, it didn't break the retry functionality. The retry 
loop never worked. Static analysis tools are identifying dead code, and these 
JIRAs are removing it instead of asking why it's dead. In this case, the code 
assumed that in do/while loops, the loop expression is not evaluated after a 
{{continue}}, which is [not the 
case|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se8/html/jls-14.html#jls-14.13.1].

Whether we fix the retry logic in this JIRA or we open a new one, I think we 
can agree that simply removing the dead code isn't making meaningful progress.
