Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-10919:
--------------------------------------
Note that if you copy from at or above the EZ root, it'll preserve the EZ
root's raw xattrs and thus create the EZ. We have a special hook in
FSDirectory#unprotectedSetXAttrs that watches for the special EZ xattr being
set. If you're copying from below the EZ root, then only that subtree is
preserved. We don't automatically create an EZ above the distcp dst (which
would be kind of weird behavior).
> Copy command should preserve raw.* namespace extended attributes

> Like distcp -p (see MAPREDUCE-6007), the copy command also needs to preserve
> extended attributes in the raw.* namespace by default whenever the src and
> target are in /.reserved/raw. To not preserve raw xattrs, don't specify
> /.reserved/raw in either the src or target.
