Harsh J resolved HADOOP-7855. ----------------------------- Resolution: Duplicate Fix Version/s: (was: 0.24.0) Dupe of HADOOP-7856 (Accidental dual-submit). > Improve DiskChecker javadocs > ---------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7855 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7855 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: util > Reporter: Eli Collins > Labels: noob > > The javadocs for DiskChecker#checkDir(File dir) trail off, look like they > weren't completed, should be. > While checkDir(File) uses java File to check if a dir actually is writable, > the version of checkDir that takes an FsPermission uses FsAction#implies > which doesn't actually check if a dir is writable (eg it passes on a > read-only file system). So switching from one version to the other can cause > unexpected bugs. Let's call this out explicitly in the javadocs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
