Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-928:
-------------------------------------
One more thing: the sum file buffer should also be kept small, probably to the default (io.file.buffer.size). Currently the patch passes the bufferSize parameter there, rather than letting it default.
make checksums optional per FileSystem
--------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-928
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-928
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: fs
Reporter: Doug Cutting
Assigned To: Hairong Kuang
Attachments: checksum.patch, checksum1.patch, checksum2.patch
Checksumming is currently built into the base FileSystem class. It should instead be optional, with each FileSystem implementation electing whether to use the Hadoop-provided checksum system, or to disable it, or to implement its own custom checksum system.
To implement this, a ChecksumFileSystem implementation can be provided that wraps another FileSystem implementation, implementing checksums as in Hadoop's current mandatory implementation (i.e., as a separate crc file per file that's elided from directory listings). The 'raw' FileSystem methods would be removed. FSDataInputStream and FSDataOutputStream would be made interfaces.
