> TaildirSource creates ReliableTaildirEventReader object in start() method,  and the constructor of ReliableTaildirEventReader will try to open matched files in updateTailFiles(). However, If the flume process has no permission to some matched files, then the updateTailFiles() method throws IOException and interrupts the creation of ReliableTaildirEventReader object. The following logs show the opening of some matched files and the exception thrown when try to open file with no permission.

> As the creation of ReliableTaildirEventReader is interrupted, the TaildirSource catches the IOException and throws FlumeException in start() method, but the opened files are not closed, which leads to the leak of file descriptors. As time goes by,  the PollableSourceRunner keeps starting TaildirSource, and the number of opened files in flume process exceeds the upper limit, then the 'Too many open files' error occurs.
