------------------------------------------

             Summary: race condition crashes "hadoop ls -R" when directories are moved/removed
                 Key: HDFS-5546
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5546
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
            Reporter: Colin Patrick McCabe
            Priority: Minor


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
