Ravi Gummadi updated HDFS-1322:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
DistributedFileSystem.mkdirs(dir, dirPermission) calls DFSClient.mkdirs(dir, 
dirPermission) to create directory and then set permissions to (dirPermission & 
~umask). Is this the intended behaviour ? I expect it to set permissions of dir 
to dirPermission instead of doing an AND with ~umask ---- similar to what 
'chmod -m mode' does.

The javadoc of DFSClient.mkdirs() says that the permissions of created dir will 
be set to dirPermission, which is not done currently. This needs to be modified 
based on the actual behaviour.

This is not an issue in RawLocalFileSystem.
