Gabor Bota commented on HADOOP-14756:
-------------------------------------

I've uploaded a new patch, and I also have some questions:
* Right now the MetadataStore#getDiagnostics javadoc describes that the 
information from the returned map is for debugging only. If this information 
still valid? If it is true, is it really a good place to store capabilities 
then?
* I use final class with private constructor for MetadataStoreCapabilities - to 
store constants because I've seen in the project this is the general way (e.g 
org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.Constants) to store constants. Is this sufficient, or 
should I use interface - where all String constants are public static final by 
default? Which choice is preferred? 

(Test & verify ran on us-west-2 successfully for the patch.)

> {{MetadataStoreTestBase.testListChildren}} would be improved with the ability 
> to query the features offered by the store, and the outcome of {{put()}}, so 
> probe the correctness of the authoritative mode
> # Add predicate to MetadataStore interface  
> {{supportsAuthoritativeDirectories()}} or similar
> # If #1 is true, assert that directory is fully cached after changes
> # Add "isNew" flag to MetadataStore.put(DirListingMetadata); use to verify 
> when changes are made
