This defines standard option and values for the openFile() builder API for opening a file: fs.option.openfile.read.policy A list of the desired read policy, in preferred order. standard values are adaptive, default, random, sequential, vector, whole-file fs.option.openfile.length How long the file is. fs.option.openfile.split.start start of a task's split fs.option.openfile.split.end end of a task's split These can be used by filesystem connectors to optimize their reading of the source file, including but not limited to * skipping existence/length probes when opening a file * choosing a policy for prefetching/caching data The hadoop shell commands which read files all declare "whole-file" and "sequential", as appropriate.
