Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-16346:
---------------------------------------
[~aihuaxu], [~stakiar] - it looks like this broke branch-2 compilation.
For example, https://builds.apache.org/job/PreCommit-HIVE-Build/4916/
(HIVE-16542).
I'm (and others [~wei.zheng]) getting the same error compiling the branch w/o
any changes.
Seems because HdfsUtils.java in shims-common is referring to some class in
common before common module is compiled
> inheritPerms should be conditional based on the target filesystem

> Right now, a lot of the logic in {{Hive.java}} attempts to set permissions of
> different files that have been moved / copied. This is only triggered if
> {{hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms}} is set to true.
> However, on blobstores such as S3, there is no concept of file permissions so
> these calls are unnecessary, which can hurt performance.
> One solution would be to set {{hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms}} to
> false, but this would be a global change that affects an entire HS2 instance.
> So HDFS tables will no longer have permissions inheritance.
> A better solution would be to make the inheritance of permissions conditional
> on the target filesystem.
