Eli Collins updated HDFS-2282:
------------------------------
Target Version/s: 0.24.0
> Semi-harmless race between block reports and block invalidation
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-2282
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2282
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: data-node
> Affects Versions: 0.20.203.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Attachments: hdfs-2282-20.txt, hdfs-2282-20.txt
>
>
> In the 0.20 codebase, block reports are not synchronized in any way against
> mutations to the actual file structure on disk. If a file is removed from a
> directory while the block report is scanning that directory, it will be
> mistakenly reported as existing with a length of 0, since File.length() on a
> non-existent file returns 0.
> This results in an error being logged on the DataNode when the NN sends it a
> second block deletion request for the already-deleted block. I believe it to
> be harmless, but the error message can concern users.
