[jira] [Updated] (HDFS-5546) race condition crashes "hadoop ls -R" when directories are moved/removed

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5546?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Lei (Eddy) Xu updated HDFS-5546:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: HDFS-5546.2.000.patch

[~cmccabe] This new patch is just catching the FNF exception right on {{getDirectoryContent()}} for {{ls/lsr}} command. 

Could you take a look of it? Thanks!

> This seems to be a rare race condition where we have a sequence of events like this:
> 1. org.apache.hadoop.shell.Ls calls DFS#getFileStatus on directory D.
> 2. someone deletes or moves directory D
> 3. org.apache.hadoop.shell.Ls calls PathData#getDirectoryContents(D), which calls DFS#listStatus(D). This throws FileNotFoundException.
> 4. ls command terminates with FNF
