Esteban Gutierrez created HDFS-8311: ---------------------------------------
Summary: DataStreamer.transfer() should timeout the socket InputStream. Key: HDFS-8311 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8311 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: hdfs-client Reporter: Esteban Gutierrez While validating some HA failure modes we found that HDFS clients can take a long time to recover or sometimes don't recover at all since we don't setup the socket timeout in the InputStream: {code} private void transfer () { ... ... OutputStream unbufOut = NetUtils.getOutputStream(sock, writeTimeout); InputStream unbufIn = NetUtils.getInputStream(sock); ... } {code} The InputStream should have its own timeout in the same way as the OutputStream. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
