Laurent Goujon updated HADOOP-10295:
------------------------------------

    Attachment: hadoop-10295.patch

Alternative patch to implement the requested feature. It extends the current 
list of file attributes option with a checksum attribute.

It requires two other patches to be applied first in order to compile and tests 
to pass:
* HADOOP-10294 : FileChecksum should provide getChecksumOpt method
* HDFS-5843: DFSClient.getFileChecksum() throws IOException if checksum is 
disabled

> Allow distcp to automatically identify the checksum type of source files and 
> use it for the target
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Currently while doing distcp, users can use "-Ddfs.checksum.type" to specify 
> the checksum type in the target FS. This works fine if all the source files 
> are using the same checksum type. If files in the source cluster have mixed 
> types of checksum, users have to either use "-skipcrccheck" or have checksum 
> mismatching exception. Thus we may need to consider adding a new option to 
> distcp so that it can automatically identify the original checksum type of 
> each source file and use the same checksum type in the target FS.
