Akira Ajisaka commented on HDFS-15421:
--------------------------------------

{quote}I think we need to update genstamp when rolling {{OP_APPEND}}. In 
{{OP_TRUNCATE}}, it is the same.
{quote}
This change does not fix the problem for append. When appending a block without 
{{CreateFlag.NEW_BLOCK}}, the edit log becomes as follows:
* {{OP_APPEND}}: prepare for append
* {{OP_SET_GENSTAMP_V2}}: update pipeline 

That way SNN will tail {{OP_SET_GENSTAMP_V2}} after {{OP_APPEND}}, so apply 
impending genstamp in {{OP_APPEND}} does not fix this problem.
I'll attach a patch with some regression tests.

> After HDFS-14941, update of the global gen stamp is delayed in certain 
> situations.  This makes the last set of incremental block reports from append 
> "from future", which causes it to be simply re-queued to the pending DN 
> message queue, rather than processed to complete the block.  The last set of 
> IBRs will leak and never cleaned until it transitions to active.  The size of 
> {{pendingDNMessages}} constantly grows until then.
> If a leak happens while in a startup safe mode, the namenode will never be 
> able to come out of safe mode on its own.
