Vinayakumar B commented on HDFS-7384:
-------------------------------------

Thanks Chris. 
For the effective action, may be we can have separate method, without affecting 
the current fields.
It will just be a alternative way for client to get the effective action, 
instead of calculating on its own.

I will upload a patch soon.

> 'getfacl' command and 'getAclStatus' output should be in sync

> *getfacl* command will print all the entries including basic and extended 
> entries, mask entries and effective permissions.
> But, *getAclStatus* FileSystem API will return only extended ACL entries set 
> by the user. But this will not include the mask entry as well as effective 
> permissions.
> To benefit the client using API, better to include 'mask' entry and effective 
> permissions in the return list of entries.
