Ben Slusky commented on HADOOP-6097:
------------------------------------

Mahadev,

Yes, we are talking about the filesystem cache, not the connection cache. Sorry 
for the confusion. As you say, har filesystems are identified by 
har://authority/archivepath, but the filesystem cache does not index 
filesystems by path -- only by scheme, authority, and username. This leads 
directly to the misbehavior I described above. I worked around it by not 
caching har fielsystems. Another option is to cache by scheme, authority, 
username, AND path. I could submit a patch to do that if anyone has a strong 
preference for it.

> Found and fixed several bugs involving Hadoop archives:
> - In makeQualified(), the sloppy conversion from Path to URI and back mangles 
> the path if it contains an escape-worthy character.
> - It's possible that fileStatusInIndex() may have to read more than one 
> segment of the index. The LineReader and count of bytes read need to be reset 
> for each block.
> - har:// connections cannot be indexed by (scheme, authority, username) -- 
> the path is significant as well. Caching them in this way limits a hadoop 
> client to opening one archive per filesystem. It seems to be safe not to 
> cache them, since they wrap another connection that does the actual 
> networking.
