John Zhuge commented on HADOOP-7352:
------------------------------------
Question: do we expect empty array or IOE when globbing a dir without
permission? e.g., {{globStatus('/root/d1/unreadable_dir/d3/*')}}.
{code:title=Globber.doGlob}
for (FileStatus candidate : candidates) {
if (globFilter.hasPattern()) {
FileStatus[] children = listStatus(candidate.getPath());
if (children.length == 1) {
{code}
> FileSystem#listStatus should throw IOE upon access error

> Project: Hadoop Common

>
> In HADOOP-6201 and HDFS-538 it was agreed that FileSystem::listStatus should
> throw FileNotFoundException instead of returning null, when the target
> directory did not exist.
> However, in LocalFileSystem implementation today, FileSystem::listStatus
> still may return null, when the target directory exists but does not grant
> read permission. This causes NPE in many callers, for all the reasons cited
> in HADOOP-6201 and HDFS-538. See HADOOP-7327 and its linked issues for
> examples.
