> NameNode should validate all coming file path
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-3063
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3063
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0
> Reporter: Denny Ye
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: namenode
> Attachments: HDFS-3063.patch

> NameNode provides RPC service for not only DFS client but also user defined
> program. A common case we always met is that user transfers file path
> prefixed with HDFS protocol("hdfs://{namenode:{port}}/{folder}/{file}").
> NameNode cannot map node meta-data with this path and always throw NPE. In
> user client, we only see the NullPointerException, no other tips for which
> step it occurs.
> Also, NameNode should validate all coming file path with regular format.
> One exception I met:
> Exception in thread "main" org.apache.hadoop.ipc.RemoteException:
> java.io.IOException: java.lang.NullPointerException
> at
> org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.INode.getPathComponents(INode.java:334)
> at
> org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.server.namenode.INode.getPathComponents(INode.java:329)
