[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-4436) S3 object names with arbitrary slashes confuse NativeS3FileSystem

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4436?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12641568#action_12641568 ] 

Tom White commented on HADOOP-4436:
-----------------------------------

Is this only a problem for S3 files that are written using other tools, or can you cause this problem by writing using NativeS3FileSystem? The discussion in HADOOP-3257 may be relevant here too.

>             Project: Hadoop Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: fs/s3
>    Affects Versions: 0.18.1
>            Reporter: David Phillips

> Consider a bucket with the following object names:
> * /
> * /foo
> * foo//bar
> NativeS3FileSystem treats an object named "/" as a directory.  Doing an "fs -lsr" causes an infinite loop.
> I suggest we change NativeS3FileSystem to handle these by ignoring any such "invalid" names.  Thoughts?
