Xiao Chen commented on HADOOP-13461:
------------------------------------

Thanks [~coheig] for reporting the issue and providing a fix. The fix looks 
good.

Nits in the test:
- We usually assert an exception by {{Assert.fail}} after the line where an 
exception is expected, and then verify the exception caught is what we wanted. 
So in this case, we can change
{code}
try {
  kp.rollNewVersion("unknown");
  assertTrue("should have thrown", false);
} catch (IOException e) {
  assertTrue(true);
}
{code}
to
{code}
try {
  kp.rollNewVersion("unknown");
  fail("should have thrown");
} catch (IOException e) {
  GenericTestUtils.assertExceptionContains("Can't find Metadata for key ", e);
}
{code}

We usually use Affect / Target versions when filing a jira. Fix Versions are 
used to track where the jira is actually committed, and are set by committers 
at check-in time. Please correct it, and refer to 
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute for details.


And I see you cannot assign the jira to yourself now. Sorry about the 
inconvenience, there are jira permission requirements need to be set. I can't 
do that yet, ping [~ajisakaa] and [~eddyxu] for help. (Akira / Eddy, could you 
also help grant me committer permission so I can do it in the future? Thanks!)

> When KeyProvider.rollNewVersion(String name) is called, it first gets the 
> metadata for the given name. The javadoc states that the getMetadata(String 
> name) method can return null if the key doesn't exist. However rollNewVersion 
> throws a NPE if the returned metadata is null.
