[jira] [Created] (HDFS-10488) WebHDFS CREATE and MKDIRS does not follow same rules as DFS CLI when creating files/directories without specifying permissions

Wellington Chevreuil created HDFS-10488:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: WebHDFS CREATE and MKDIRS does not follow same rules as DFS CLI when creating files/directories without specifying permissions
                 Key: HDFS-10488
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10488
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: webhdfs
            Reporter: Wellington Chevreuil
            Priority: Minor


WebHDFS methods for creating file/directories are always creating it with 755 permissions as default, even ignoring any configured *fs.permissions.umask-mode* in the case of directories.

Dfs CLI, however, applies the configured umask to 777 permission for directories, or 666 permission for files.

Example below shows the different behaviour when creating directory via CLI and WebHDFS:

{noformat}
1) Creating a directory under '/test/' as 'test-user'. Configured fs.permissions.umask-mode is 000: 

$ sudo -u test-user hdfs dfs -mkdir /test/test-user1 
$ sudo -u test-user hdfs dfs -getfacl /test/test-user1 
# file: /test/test-user1
# owner: test-user 
# group: supergroup 
user::rwx 
group::rwx 
other::rwx 

4) Doing the same via WebHDFS does not get the proper ACLs: 

$ curl -i -X PUT "http://namenode-host:50070/webhdfs/v1/test/test-user2?user.name=test-user&op=MKDIRS" 
$ sudo -u test-user hdfs dfs -getfacl /test/test-user2 
# file: /test/test-user2 
# owner: test-user 
# group: supergroup 
user::rwx 
group::r-x 
other::r-x
{noformat}
