StephanEwen opened a new pull request #6726: [FLINK-9061] [s3] Add entropy 
injection to S3 file systems for checkpoints
URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/6726
 
 
   ## What is the purpose of the change
   
   This pull request adds hooks to optionally inject entropy to the checkpoint 
path based upon a user defined pattern in the configuration for better S3 
scalability.
   
   This is a revised version of #6302 by @indrc (based on Flink 1.4) that ports 
the changes to the new FileStateStorage code introduced in Flink 1.5 and to the 
new S3 common abstraction recently added to the master branch.
   
   The difference to the previous approach is that the entropy injection sits 
only in the S3 file system code  and the checkpointing code only passes a write 
option that says that entropy is desired here.
   
   The advantage of that is that the checkpointing code stays simple. 
Furthermore, entropy injection is only configurable for S3, which is the only 
FS that can support this style of path rewriting properly, because it is 
actually an object store and can handle random injection in the paths without 
causing "parent does not exist" directory problems.
   
   ## Brief change log
   
     - Extends the FileSystem class with a `write(Path, WriteOptions)` method. 
This method should subsume all special methods with extra options that are 
relevant to a subset of file systems. The `WriteOptions` object makes this 
extensible without breaking the API.
     - Adds an implementation of entropy injection for the base S3 file system 
from which the Presto-based and Hadoop-based S3 file systems inherit. When 
entropy injection is configured and requested, the entropy key is replaced in 
the path, otherwise filtered out.
     - The only change in checkpointing is that the `FsCheckpointStreamFactory` 
passes the specific WriteOption to "inject entropy here if configured".
   
   ## Verifying this change
   
     - Added unit test for entropy injection under 
`org.apache.flink.runtime.state.filesystem` 
     - Added unit test for checkpointing under `org.apache.flink.fs.s3.common`
