Eli Collins commented on HADOOP-6501:
-------------------------------------
Sounds like it should thrown an IOException. You might find HADOOP-6499
relevant.
bq. NOTE that a permission or other failure leaves a garbage
partially-completed path in the current hadoop impl.
Sounds like another good test to add.
> RawLocalFileSystem.mkdirs does not throw IOException when it should?

> Key: HADOOP-6501
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6501
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 0.20.1
> Environment: Fedora, Java 1.6.0_17, hadoop 20.1
> Reporter: robert Cook
> Priority: Minor
>
> public boolean mkdirs(Path f) throws IOException {
> Path parent = f.getParent();
> File p2f = pathToFile(f);
> return (parent == null || mkdirs(parent)) &&
> (p2f.mkdir() || p2f.isDirectory());
> }
> none of the methods called throw IOException
> yet FileSystemContract
> BaseTest.testMkdirsFailsForSubdirectoryOfExistingFile fails
> createFile(path("/test/hadoop/file"));
> Path testSubDir = path("/test/hadoop/file/subdir");
> try {
> fs.mkdirs(testSubDir); //<---------returns false instead of throwing
> exception
> fail("Should throw IOException.");
> } catch (IOException e) {
> // expected
> }
> --------------------------------------
> further UNIX mkdir operates on a path argument. why does hadoop mkdir
> create directories in the path one at a time???
> NOTE that a permission or other failure leaves a garbage partially-completed
> path in the current hadoop impl.
