-----------------------------------
Summary: failure to set sticky bit regression on branch-trunk-win
Key: HDFS-4314
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4314
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: hdfs-client
Affects Versions: trunk-win
Reporter: Chris Nauroth
Assignee: Chris Nauroth
Fix For: trunk-win
The problem is visible by running {{TestDFSShell#testFilePermissions}}. The
test fails on trying to set sticky bit. The problem is that branch-trunk-win
accidentally merged in a branch-1 change in
{{RawLocalFileSystem#setPermission}} to call {{FileUtil#setPermission}}, which
sets permissions using Java {{File}} API. There is no way to set sticky bit
through this API. We need to switch back to the trunk implementation of
{{RawLocalFileSystem#setPermission}}, which uses either native code or a shell
call to external chmod.
