[jira] [Comment Edited] (HADOOP-15128) TestViewFileSystem tests are
broken in trunk
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15128?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16296316#comment-16296316 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------
In HADOOP-2381, the discussion thread contains good insights why the original code was written as such. We should throw exception when it is unable to load permission information, and owner, group, permission information should not be null. These safe guards are making sure the file system security is not compromised. The recent change allows other class to extend RawLocalFileSystem base class and circumvent security. HADOOP-10054 must be reverted to prevent security hole. There are other ways to fix ViewFsFileStatus.toString() to make sure the path is initialized properly without modifying FileStatus class.
