Summary of Changes

Hello @abhishek10004, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request enhances the MrdSimpleReader by introducing robust handling for 'short reads.' When a read operation returns fewer bytes than expected but without a critical error, the system will now attempt to recover by recreating the underlying MultiRangeDownloader and retrying the read for the missing data. This change significantly improves the reliability and data integrity of read operations, ensuring that applications receive all requested data even under transient conditions that might cause partial reads.

Highlights

  • Short Read Handling: Implemented a mechanism to detect and handle 'short reads' within the MrdSimpleReader, where a read operation returns fewer bytes than requested without a fatal error.
  • New Helper Function: Introduced a new isShortRead helper function to precisely determine if a read operation resulted in an incomplete read, considering various error conditions like io.EOF.
  • ReadAt Method Enhancement: Modified the ReadAt method to attempt recreating the MultiRangeDownloader (MRD) instance and retrying the read for the remaining bytes if a short read is detected. This improves robustness by ensuring full data retrieval.
  • Comprehensive Testing: Added new unit tests to cover both successful retry scenarios after a short read and cases where the retry itself fails, ensuring correct error propagation and behavior.

Code Review

This pull request introduces support for handling short reads in MrdSimpleReader. When a short read occurs, the logic attempts to recreate the Multi-Range Downloader (MRD) instance and retries the read for the remaining bytes. This is a robust way to handle potentially stale connections or object generation changes. The implementation is sound and is accompanied by good unit tests covering both success and failure scenarios for the retry logic. I've added a couple of suggestions to improve code conciseness and enhance logging for better debuggability.

Code Review

This pull request adds support for handling short reads in MrdSimpleReader by recreating the MRD pool and retrying the read. The overall approach is sound and the new logic is well-tested with unit tests for both success and failure scenarios of the retry mechanism. I've found one issue regarding error handling when RecreateMRD is called. The error is unintentionally suppressed, which could make debugging issues in production difficult. Please see my detailed comment.
