Charles Lamb updated HDFS-6546:
-------------------------------

    Description: Need to add protocol, api, and CLI that allows a non super 
user to ask whether a path is part of an EZ, and if so, which one.  (was: Need 
to add protocol, api, and CLI that allows a non super user to ask whether a 
path is part of an EZ, and if so, which one.

FileStatus should have a 'boolean isEncrypted()' method. (it was in the context 
of discussing with AndreW about FileStatus being a Writable).

Having this method would allow MR JobSubmitter do the following:

-----
BOOLEAN intermediateEncryption = false
IF jobconf.contains("mr.intermidate.encryption") THEN
  intermediateEncryption = jobConf.getBoolean("mr.intermidate.encryption")
ELSE
  IF (I/O)Format INSTANCEOF File(I/O)Format THEN
    intermediateEncryption = ANY File(I/O)Format HAS a Path with status 
isEncrypted()==TRUE
  FI
  jobConf.setBoolean("mr.intermidate.encryption", intermediateEncryption)
FI
)

> Add non-superuser capability to get the encryption zone for a specific path
