Infinite loop at creating splits using CombineFileInputFormat

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-2185
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2185
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: job submission
            Reporter: Hairong Kuang
            Assignee: Hairong Kuang
             Fix For: 0.22.0


This is caused by a missing block in HDFS. So the block's locations are empty. 
The following code adds the block to blockToNodes map but not to rackToBlocks 
map. Later on when generating splits, only blocks in rackToBlocks are removed 
from blockToNodes map. So blockToNodes map can never become empty therefore 
causing infinite loop

{code}
          // add this block to the block --> node locations map
          blockToNodes.put(oneblock, oneblock.hosts);

          // add this block to the rack --> block map
          for (int j = 0; j < oneblock.racks.length; j++) {
             ..
          }
{code}
