----------------------------------------
Ah, sorry, I just noticed [this
comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9155?focusedCommentId=13537770&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13537770]
of yours explaining why you continue to use {{FsPermission.getDefault}} in a
few places. It seems fine to me to continue to use that in the tests, but I do
think we should use the new {{FsPermission.getDirDefault}} call in the main
code.
> FsPermission should have different default value, 777 for directory and 666
> for file

> The default permission for {{FileSystem#create}} is the same default as for
> {{FileSystem#mkdirs}}, namely {{0777}}. It would make more sense for the
> default to be {{0666}} for files and {{0777}} for directories. The current
> default leads to a lot of files being created with the executable bit that
> really should not be. One example is anything created with FsShell's
> copyToLocal.
> For reference, {{fopen}} creates files with a mode of {{0666}} (minus
> whatever bits are set in the umask; usually {{0022}}. This seems to be the
> standard behavior and we should follow it. This is also a regression since
> branch-1.
