Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2531:
--------------------------------------
Okay, I found it: the default permissions on upgrade are 777, with both user
and group set to HadoopAnonymous. So I'm now leaning towards switching to
dfs.permissions=true by default.
> HDFS FileStatus.getPermission() should return 777 when dfs.permissions=false

> Key: HADOOP-2531
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2531
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: dfs
> Reporter: Doug Cutting
> Fix For: 0.16.0
>
>
> Generic permission checking code should still work correctly when
> dfs.permissions=false. Currently FileStatus#getPermission() returns the
> actual permission when dfs.permissions=false on the namenode, which is
> incorrect, since all accesses are permitted in this case.
