             Summary: Refactor o.a.h.hdfs.DataStreamer$isLazyPersist() method
                 Key: HDFS-9027
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9027
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Mingliang Liu
            Assignee: Mingliang Liu


In method {{isLazyPersist()}}, the {{org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DataStreamer}} class checks whether the HDFS file is lazy persist. It does two things:
1. Create a class-wide _static_ {{BlockStoragePolicySuite}} object, which builds an array of {{BlockStoragePolicy}} internally
2. Get a block storage policy object from the {{blockStoragePolicySuite}} by policy name {{HdfsConstants.MEMORY_STORAGE_POLICY_NAME}}

Code samples as following:
{code}
private static final BlockStoragePolicySuite blockStoragePolicySuite =
    BlockStoragePolicySuite.createDefaultSuite();

static boolean isLazyPersist(HdfsFileStatus stat) {
    final BlockStoragePolicy p = blockStoragePolicySuite.getPolicy(
        HdfsConstants.MEMORY_STORAGE_POLICY_NAME);
    return p != null && stat.getStoragePolicy() == p.getId();
}
{code}

This has two side effects:
1. Takes time to iterate the pre-built block storage policy array in order to find the _same_ policy every time whose id matters only (as we need to compare the file status policy id with lazy persist policy id)
2. {{DataStreamer}} class imports {{BlockStoragePolicySuite}}. The former should be moved to {{hadoop-hdfs-client}} module, while the latter can stay in {{hadoop-hdfs}} module.

Actually, we have the block storage policy IDs, which can be used to compare with HDFS file status' policy id, as following:
{code}
static boolean isLazyPersist(HdfsFileStatus stat) {
    return stat.getStoragePolicy() == HdfsConstants.MEMORY_STORAGE_POLICY_ID;
}
{code}
This way, we only need to move the block storage policies' IDs from {{HdfsServerConstant}} ({{hadoop-hdfs}} module) to {{HdfsConstants}} ({{hadoop-hdfs-client}} module).

Another reason we should move those block storage policy IDs is that the block storage policy names were moved to {{HdfsConstants}} already.
