>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
>            Reporter: Dmitry Sivachenko
>
> getgrouplist() has different return values on Linux and FreeBSD:
> Linux: either the number of groups (positive) or -1 on error
> FreeBSD: 0 on success or -1 on error
> The return value of getgrouplist() is analyzed in Linux-specific way in 
> hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/main/native/src/org/apache/hadoop/security/hadoop_user_info.c,
>  in function hadoop_user_info_getgroups() which breaks FreeBSD.
> In this function you have 3 choices for the return value 
> ret = getgrouplist(uinfo->pwd.pw_name, uinfo->pwd.pw_gid,
>                          uinfo->gids, &ngroups);
> 1) ret > 0 : OK for Linux, it will be zero on FreeBSD.  I propose to change 
> this to ret >= 0
> 2) First condition is false and ret != -1:  impossible according to manpage
> 3) ret == 1 -- OK for both Linux and FreeBSD
> So I propose to change "ret > 0" to "ret >= 0" and (optionally) return 2nd 
> case.
