             Summary: Provide Regex Based Mount Point In Inode Tree
                 Key: HDFS-13948
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13948
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: fs
            Reporter: zhenzhao wang
            Assignee: zhenzhao wang


This jira is created to support regex based mount point in Inode Tree. We 
noticed that mount point only support fixed target path. However, we might have 
user cases when target needs to refer some fields from source. e.g. We might 
want a mapping of /cluster1/user1 => /cluster1-dc1/user-nn-user1, we want to 
refer `cluster` and `user` field in source to construct target. It's impossible 
to archive this with current link type. Though we could set one-to-one mapping, 
the mount table would become bloated if we have thousands of users. Besides, a 
regex mapping would empower us more flexibility. So we are going to build a 
regex based mount point which target could refer groups from src regex mapping.
