Aaron T. Myers updated HDFS-2602:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
Without the patch in HDFS-1108, new block allocations aren't logged to the 
edits log. For HA, we'll need that functionality and we'll need to make sure 
that block locations aren't blown away in the Standby NN when tailing the edits 
log.

As described in HDFS-1975:

When we close a file, or add another block to a file, we write OP_CLOSE or 
OP_ADD in the txn log. FSEditLogLoader, when it sees these types of 
transactions, creates new BlockInfo objects for all of the blocks listed in the 
transaction. These new BlockInfos have no block locations associated. So, when 
we close a file, the SBNN loses its block locations info for that file and is 
no longer "hot".

I have an ugly hack which copies over the old BlockInfos from the existing 
INode, but I'm not convinced it's the right way. It might be cleaner to add new 
opcode types like OP_ADD_ADDITIONAL_BLOCK, and actually treat OP_CLOSE as just 
a finalization of INodeFileUnderConstruction to INodeFile, rather than 
replacing block info at all.

        Summary: NN should log newly-allocated blocks without losing BlockInfo  
(was: Standby needs to maintain BlockInfo while following edits)
