Andrew Wang updated HADOOP-9652: -------------------------------- Attachment: hadoop-9652-4.patch > RawLocalFs#getFileLinkStatus does not fill in the link owner and mode > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-9652 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9652 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe > Assignee: Andrew Wang > Fix For: 2.3.0 > > Attachments: hadoop-9452-1.patch, hadoop-9652-2.patch, > hadoop-9652-3.patch, hadoop-9652-4.patch > > > {{RawLocalFs#getFileLinkStatus}} does not actually get the owner and mode of > the symlink, but instead uses the owner and mode of the symlink target. If > the target can't be found, it fills in bogus values (the empty string and > FsPermission.getDefault) for these. > Symlinks have an owner distinct from the owner of the target they point to, > and getFileLinkStatus ought to expose this. > In some operating systems, symlinks can have a permission other than 0777. > We ought to expose this in RawLocalFilesystem and other places, although we > don't necessarily have to support this behavior in HDFS. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
