             Summary: Introduce RPCInfo to decouple XDR classes from the RPC API
                 Key: HDFS-5230
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5230
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Haohui Mai
            Assignee: Haohui Mai


The XDR class is one fundamental aspect in the current implementation of NFS server. While the client might potentially have a higher level APIs, it also requires redundant copying since the upstream clients have insufficient information.

This JIRA introduces a new class, RPCInfo, which (1) decouples XDR from the APIs, turning it into a utility class, and (2) exposes ChannelBuffer directly to the client in order to open the opportunity for avoid copying.
