-------------------------------------

             Summary: checksumFS doesn't wrap concat(): concatenated files 
don't have checksums
                 Key: HDFS-14319
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14319
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 3.2.0
            Reporter: Steve Loughran


Followon from HADOOP-16107. FilterFS passes through the concat operation, and 
checksum FS doesn't override that call -so files created through concat *do not 
have checksums*.

If people are using a checksummed fs directly with the expectations that they 
will, that expectation is not being met. 

What to do?

* fail always?
* fail if checksums are enabled?
* try and implement the concat operation from raw local up at the checksum level

append() just gives up always; doing the same for concat would be the simplest. 
Again, brings us back to "need a way to see if an FS supports a feature before 
invocation", here checksum fs would reject append and concat
