Suresh Srinivas updated HADOOP-6710: ------------------------------------ Attachment: hadoop-6710.patch Attached patch: # Adds support for posix compliant symbolic umask support with extensive tests # Current symbolic umask of format "u=,g=,o=" is not parsed correctly. This should be same as octal umask 777. Changing the regex to support this. > Symbolic umask for file creation is not consistent with posix > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6710 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6710 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.21.0, 0.22.0 > Reporter: Suresh Srinivas > Attachments: hadoop-6710.patch > > > Currently both octal and symbolic umask are used to reset the file creation > mode bits. This is not consistent with the behavior defined in posix. Making > it consistent would avoid confusion to the HDFS users. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
