Matt Foley reopened HDFS-2379:
------------------------------
There's been a request to include this in 1.0.1, but the patch doesn't apply;
it conflicts with another patch on several files.
Todd, would you be able to look at making the patch work in branch-1.0, please?
> 0.20: Allow block reports to proceed without holding FSDataset lock

> As disks are getting larger and more plentiful, we're seeing DNs with
> multiple millions of blocks on a single machine. When page cache space is
> tight, block reports can take multiple minutes to generate. Currently, during
> the scanning of the data directories to generate a report, the FSVolumeSet
> lock is held. This causes writes and reads to block, timeout, etc, causing
> big problems especially for clients like HBase.
> This JIRA is to explore some of the ideas originally discussed in HADOOP-4584
> for the 0.20.20x series.
