Would that isAuthoritative flag have to be setup by higher level applications
like Pig/Hive/MR?
{quote}
No, it is internal to S3A. S3A can tell when it has the full listing for a
directory, and simply conveys that to the MetadataStore by setting the
isAuthoritative bit.
e.g. in {{S3Guard#dirListingUnion(..)}}, it always sets the flag when it puts
the listing into the MetadataStore, since this function always has the full
listing for the directory:
{code}
dirMeta.setAuthoritative(true); // This is the full directory contents
{code}
> Set isAuthoritative flag when creating DirListingMetadata in DynamoDBMetaStore

> Currently {{DynamoDBMetaStore::listChildren}} does not populate
> {{isAuthoritative}} flag when creating {{DirListingMetadata}}.
> This causes additional S3 lookups even when users have enabled
> {{fs.s3a.metadatastore.authoritative}}.
