Hello, I have been working on continuing Carlo Curino and Chris Douglas contribution on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5269. After some iterations, we decided to split this patch into smaller ones to make easier for reviewers to check it and to pass Jenkins validations.
The first two sub-products of this splitting are https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-6434and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-6444 (and I am planning another one to finish the work that depends on these two). I have some doubts related to the review process for each of these improvements: 1) *MAPREDUCE-6434*: How can I have the patch accepted now that it is approved by Jenkins and passed every test? 2) *MAPREDUCE-6444*: How can I solve checkstyle issues related to the number of parameters in some methods I created (more than seven)? I noticed there are other methods in hadoop source code with more than 7 parameters, the most part of my changes were in old methods that already had more than 7 parameters and I added other parameters to it and got caught by checkstyle validation. Thanks in advance! Best regards, Augusto Souza
