             Summary: FSShell copyToLocal creates files with the executable bit set
                 Key: HDFS-4319
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4319
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: namenode
    Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Priority: Minor


With the default value of {{fs.permissions.umask-mode}}, {{022}},  {{FSShell copyToLocal}} creates files with the executable bit set.

If, on the other hand, you change {{fs.permissions.umask-mode}} to something like {{133}}, you encounter a different problem.  When you use {{copyToLocal}} to create directories, they don't have the executable bit set, meaning they do not have search permission.

Since HDFS doesn't allow the executable bit to be set on files, it seems illogical to add it in when using {{copyToLocal}}.  This is also a regression, since branch 1 did not have this problem.
