Christophe Taton commented on HADOOP-1298: ------------------------------------------ I noticed some changes and improvements I should do: - only root users should be allowed to use chown; - chgrp and chmod should be restricted to root and INode's owners; - the sticky bit is something I need. As I am integrating ownership and mode info into FSDir.INode, I noticed a todo for factoring FSDir.INode as a standalone class. Would you mind if I do so? By the way, are there any reason why INode does not implement Writable? > adding user info to file > ------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-1298 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1298 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: dfs, fs > Reporter: Kurtis Heimerl > Attachments: hadoop-user-munncha.patch, hadoop-user-munncha.patch, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch, hadoop-user-munncha.patch10, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch11, hadoop-user-munncha.patch12, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch13, hadoop-user-munncha.patch14, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch15, hadoop-user-munncha.patch16, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch17, hadoop-user-munncha.patch4, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch5, hadoop-user-munncha.patch6, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch7, hadoop-user-munncha.patch8, > hadoop-user-munncha.patch9, hdfs-access-control.patch.gz > > > I'm working on adding a permissions model to hadoop's DFS.
