Vinay commented on HDFS-5443:
-----------------------------
Patch will not clear the blocks in this case.
1. rename underconstruction file/directory with 0-sized blocks after snapshot
2. delete the renamed directory.
because INode is saved to snapshot while renaming itself. so updation will not
happen during deletion.
> Namenode can stuck in safemode on restart if it crashes just after addblock
> logsync and after taking snapshot for such file.
