             Summary: BlockReceiver.receiveBlock() throws an IOException when 
interrupted
                 Key: HDFS-14473
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-14473
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: eBugs in Cloud Systems


Dear HDFS developers, we are developing a tool to detect exception-related bugs 
in Java. Our prototype has spotted the following {{throw}} statement whose 
exception class and error message seem to indicate different error conditions. 
Since we are not very familiar with HDFS's internal work flow, could you please 
help us verify if this is a bug, i.e., will the callers have trouble handling 
the exception, and will the users/admins have trouble diagnosing the failure?

 

Version: Hadoop-3.1.2

File: 
HADOOP-ROOT/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/BlockReceiver.java

Line: 1070
{code:java}
throw new IOException("Interrupted receiveBlock");{code}
Reason: An {{IOException}} can mean many different errors, while the error 
message indicates that {{receiveBlock()}} is interrupted. Will this mismatch be 
a problem? For example, will the callers try to handle other {{IOException}} 
accidentally (and incorrectly) handle the interrupt? Maybe an 
{{InterruptedIOException}} will be better?
