-----------------------------------------
I'd prefer moving off shell entirely and into the fs APIs, either java or
hadoop native. Doesn't it already drop to some native lib if its available?
> RawLocalFileStatus throws exception if a file is created and deleted quickly
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-16378
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16378
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: fs
> Affects Versions: 3.3.0
> Environment: Ubuntu 18.04, Hadoop 2.7.3 (Though this problem exists
> on later versions of Hadoop as well), Java 8 ( + Java 11).
> Reporter: K S
> Priority: Critical
>
> Bug occurs when NFS creates temporary ".nfs*" files as part of file moves and
> accesses. If this file is deleted very quickly after being created, a
> RuntimeException is thrown. The root cause is in the loadPermissionInfo
> method in org.apache.hadoop.fs.RawLocalFileSystem. To get the permission
> info, it first does
>
> {code:java}
> ls -ld{code}
> and then attempts to get permissions info about each file. If a file
> disappears between these two steps, an exception is thrown.
> *Reproduction Steps:*
> An isolated way to reproduce the bug is to run FileInputFormat.listStatus
> over and over on the same dir that we’re creating those temp files in. On
> Ubuntu or any other Linux-based system, this should fail intermittently
> *Fix:*
> One way in which we managed to fix this was to ignore the exception being
> thrown in loadPemissionInfo() if the exit code is 1 or 2. Alternatively, it's
> possible that turning "useDeprecatedFileStatus" off in RawLocalFileSystem
> would fix this issue, though we never tested this, and the flag was
> implemented to fix -HADOOP-9652-. Could also fix in conjunction with
> HADOOP-8772.
