----------------------------------------------
Hi Aaron,
Recovery mode in branch-1 just let you stop reading or quit without saving. It
does not really "recover" anything. IMO, it does not seem useful. How about
we revert it?
Again, the edit log toleration can be disabled. I think there is no reason to
revert the patch.
If you see that other improvements could be made regarding to recovery mode or
edit log toleration, we could discuss them in another JIRA.

> HDFS-3479 adds checking for edit log corruption. It uses a fixed
> UNCHECKED_REGION_LENGTH (=PREALLOCATION_LENGTH) so that the bytes at the end
> within the length is not checked. Instead of not checking the bytes, we
> should check everything and allow toleration.
