Hi, [~gvernik]. Thank you for reporting, but `Fix Version` and `Target Version` will be handled by the Apache Spark committers later.

> I have an issue related `org.apache.spark.streaming.dstream.FileInputDStream` method `findNewFiles`.
> Streaming for the giving path suppose to pickup new files only ( based on the previous run timestamp ). However the code in Spark will first obtain directories, then for each directory will find new files. Here is the relevant code:
> *val* directoryFilter = *new* PathFilter
> {   *override def* accept(path: Path): Boolean = fs.getFileStatus(path).isDirectory }
> *val* directories = fs.globStatus(directoryPath, directoryFilter).map(_.getPath)
> *val* newFiles = directories.flatMap(dir =>
>   fs.listStatus(dir, newFileFilter).map(_.getPath.toString))
>  
> This is not optimized, as it always requires two accesses.  In addition this seems to be  buggy
> I have an S3 bucket “mydata” with  objects “a.csv”, “b.csv”. I noticed that   fs.globStatus(“[s3a://mydata/], directoryFilter).map(_.getPath) returned 0 directories and so “a.csv”, “b.csv” were not picked by Spark.
> I tried to make path as “[s3a://mydata/*]” and it didn't worked also.
> I experienced the same problematic behavior with the file system when tried to stream from “/Users/streaming/*”
>  I suggest to change the code in Spark so it will perform first list without directoryFilter, which seems not needed at all. The code could  be
> *val* directoriesOrfiles = fs.globStatus(directoryPath).map(_.getPath)
> The flow would be ( for each entry in  directoriesOrfiles )
>  * If data object: Spark will apply newFileFilter on the returned objects
>  * If directory: then the existing  code will perform additional listing at the directory level
> This way it will pick up files from the root of path and the content of directories
