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

Thanks [~arpitagarwal],
{quote}Is this a compatible change and can it be applied safely during rolling 
upgrade without breaking anything?{quote}
I believe this fix will not introduce incompatibility as [~xkrogen] and [~csun] 
descriptions.
{quote}This does make me wonder if we should push this back to all branches 
containing HDFS-6440. {quote}
+1 for backporting this fix to other branches. I will prepare patches soon.

> Currently, a {{BlockTokenSecretManager}} starts with a random integer as the 
> initial serial number, and then use this formula to rotate it:
> {code:java}
>     this.intRange = Integer.MAX_VALUE / numNNs;
>     this.nnRangeStart = intRange * nnIndex;
>     this.serialNo = (this.serialNo % intRange) + (nnRangeStart);
>  {code}
> while {{numNNs}} is the total number of NameNodes in the cluster, and 
> {{nnIndex}} is the index of the current NameNode specified in the 
> configuration {{dfs.ha.namenodes.<nameservice>}}.
> However, with this approach, different NameNode could have overlapping ranges 
> for serial number. For simplicity, let's assume {{Integer.MAX_VALUE}} is 100, 
> and we have 2 NameNodes {{nn1}} and {{nn2}} in configuration. Then the ranges 
> for these two are:
> {code}
> nn1 -> [-49, 49]
> nn2 -> [1, 99]
> {code}
> This is because the initial serial number could be any negative integer.
> Moreover, when the keys are updated, the serial number will again be updated 
> with the formula:
> {code}
> this.serialNo = (this.serialNo % intRange) + (nnRangeStart);
> {code}
> which means the new serial number could be updated to a range that belongs to 
> a different NameNode, thus increasing the chance of collision again.
> When the collision happens, DataNodes could overwrite an existing key which 
> will cause clients to fail because of {{InvalidToken}} error.
