Zhanwei Wang commented on HDFS-7011:
------------------------------------
Hi Colin
As discussed before, libhdfs3 is not a good name and should be changed. libhdfs
only provide C interface and do not have namespace issue.
So I think "hdfs" is better namespace name since this is a hdfs's client, not
hdfs3's client. User will ask if "hdfs3" is another file system or a certain
version of hdfs, it will introduce confusion.
I think it is necessary to keep the copyright history since not like other code
in HDFS, libhdfs3 was proprietary software before open source.
I block many signals in backend worker thread, these signals should only be
handled in main thread. libhdfs3 will not raise SIGPIPE at all.
