>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9371
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: fs
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Steve Loughran
>            Assignee: Steve Loughran

>   Original Estimate: 48h
>  Remaining Estimate: 48h
>
> The semantics of {{FileSystem}} and {{FileContext}} are not completely 
> defined in terms of 
> # core expectations of a filesystem
> # consistency requirements.
> # concurrency requirements.
> # minimum scale limits
> Furthermore, methods are not defined strictly enough in terms of their 
> outcomes and failure modes.
> The requirements and method semantics should be defined more strictly.
