                 Key: HADOOP-2151
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2151
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.15.0, 0.14.3
            Reporter: lohit vijayarenu


FileSystem.globPaths does not validate the return list of Paths.

Here is an example. 
Consider a directory structure like
/user/foo/DIR1/FILE1
/user/foo/DIR2

now if we pass an input path like "/user/foo/*/FILE1" to FileSystem.globPaths()
It returns 2 entries as shown below
/user/foo/DIR1/FILE1
/user/foo/DIR2/FILE1

Should globPaths validate this and return only valid Paths? This behavior was 
caught in FileSystem.validateInput() where an IOException is thrown while 
processing such a directory structure.
