[jira] Created: (HADOOP-6198) FileSystem filtering should work on FileStatus rather than Path objects

FileSystem filtering should work on FileStatus rather than Path objects
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-6198
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6198
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Chris Douglas


There's an avoidable overhead in listing/globbing items with some property (e.g. owned by user foo, only files, files larger than _n_ bytes, etc.). Internally, the Path is extracted from a FileStatus object and passed to the PathFilter; simply passing the FileStatus object would allow one to filter on the information in the status object.
