[jira] [Created] (HDFS-8312) Trash does not descent into child directories to check for permissions

Eric Yang created HDFS-8312:
-------------------------------

             Summary: Trash does not descent into child directories to check for permissions
                 Key: HDFS-8312
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8312
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HDFS, security
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.2.0
            Reporter: Eric Yang


HDFS trash does not descent into child directory to check if user has permission to delete files.  For example:

Run the following command to initialize directory structure as super user:
{code}
hadoop fs -mkdir /BSS/level1
hadoop fs -mkdir /BSS/level1/level2
hadoop fs -mkdir /BSS/level1/level2/level3
hadoop fs -put /tmp/appConfig.json /BSS/level1/level2/level3/testfile.txt
hadoop fs -chown user1:users /BSS/level1/level2/level3/testfile.txt
hadoop fs -chown -R user1:users /BSS/level1
hadoop fs -chown -R 750 /BSS/level1
hadoop fs -chmod -R 640 /BSS/level1/level2/level3/testfile.txt
hadoop fs -chmod 775 /BSS
{code}

Change to a normal user called user2. 

When trash is enabled:
{code}
sudo su user2 -
hadoop fs -rm -r /BSS/level1
15/05/01 16:51:20 INFO fs.TrashPolicyDefault: Namenode trash configuration: Deletion interval = 3600 minutes, Emptier interval = 0 minutes.
Moved: 'hdfs://bdvs323.svl.ibm.com:9000/BSS/level1' to trash at: hdfs://bdvs323.svl.ibm.com:9000/user/user2/.Trash/Current
{code}

When trash is disabled:
{code}
/opt/ibm/biginsights/IHC/bin/hadoop fs -Dfs.trash.interval=0 -rm -r /BSS/level1
15/05/01 16:58:31 INFO fs.TrashPolicyDefault: Namenode trash configuration: Deletion interval = 0 minutes, Emptier interval = 0 minutes.
rm: Permission denied: user=user2, access=ALL, inode="/BSS/level1":user1:users:drwxr-x---
{code}

There is inconsistency between trash behavior and delete behavior.  When trash is enabled, files owned by user1 is deleted by user2.  It looks like trash does not recursively validate if the child directory files can be removed.
