Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-5182:
--------------------------------------------

The data xceiver protocol would stay the same as it is now.  It's just that 
after the SCR request, we would hang on to the socket and use a different 
protocol, which I call the SCR notification protocol.  The data xceiver 
threads, protocols, etc. are not involved at that point, just the same as now.

> BlockReaderLocal must allow zero-copy reads only when the DN believes it's 
> valid.  This implies adding a new field to the response to 
> REQUEST_SHORT_CIRCUIT_FDS.  We also need some kind of heartbeat from the 
> client to the DN, so that the DN can inform the client when the mapped region 
> is no longer locked into memory.
