                 Key: HADOOP-1124
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1124
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: fs
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Hairong Kuang
             Fix For: 0.13.0


When handle ChecksumError, the checksumed file system tries to recover by rereading from a different replica.

I have three comments:
1. One bug in the code is that when retrying, the object that computes checksum does not get restored to the old state.
2. The code also assumes that the first byte read and the byte being read when ChecksumError occurs are in the same block. 
3. It would be more efficient if we roll back to the first byte in the chunk that's being checksumed instead of rolling back to the first byte that was read.
