[jira] [Updated] (HADOOP-10942) Globbing optimizations and regression fix

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10942?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Daryn Sharp updated HADOOP-10942:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: HADOOP-10942.patch

Existing tests in {{TestGlobPaths}} were designed to catch the regressed bug.  However permission checking was disabled and the priviledged vs unpriviledged fs management was buggy.

The existing logic made re-fixing that bug not straightforward.  I reverted it back to be more inline with 0.23's implementation, while retaining the additional rpc reducing optimizations added in 2.x.

I separated the logic into multiple methods, removed funky code for using/removing a root placeholder status by only using when necessary, doing a simple immediate file status if the path contains no globs, etc.

> When globbing was commonized to support both filesystem and filecontext, it regressed a fix that prevents an intermediate glob that matches a file from throwing a confusing permissions exception.  The hdfs traverse check requires the exec bit which a file does not have.
> Additional optimizations to reduce rpcs actually increases them if directories contain 1 item.
