------------------------------------
Summary: Change HdfsFileStatus::fileId to an opaque identifier
Key: HDFS-10262
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10262
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: hdfs-client, webhdfs
Reporter: Chris Douglas
HDFS exposes the INode ID as a long via HdfsFileStatus::getFileId. Since
equality is the only valid client operation (sequential/monotonically
increasing ids are not guaranteed in any spec; leases do not rely on any other
property), this identifier can be opaque instead of assigning it a primitive
type in HdfsFileStatus.
