Doug Cutting commented on HDFS-2664:
------------------------------------
I don't think we should remove the test without removing the code that it tests.
What I meant that you might propose is to remove Avro RPC altogether from
common and HDFS. The Avro RPC implementation and this test primarily currently
serve to keep the RpcEngine AP a pluggable interface, facilitating future
alternate RPC engines. If folks don't think RpcEngine pluggability is valuable
then perhaps we should remove AvroRpcEngine, this test, and even the RpcEngine
API itself.

> With HDFS-2647, HDFS has transitioned to protocol buffers. The server side
> implementation registers <Protocol>PB.class and a BlockingService as
> implementation. Client side uses <Protocol>PB.class as the interface. The RPC
> engine used is protobuf both for the RPC proxy and the server. With this
> TestDFSOverAvroRpc fails. I propose removing this test.
