Chris Nauroth updated HDFS-7917:
--------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.7.0
     Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
           Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

+1 for the patch.  The failure in {{TestTracing}} is unrelated and tracked 
elsewhere.  I committed this to trunk, branch-2 and branch-2.7.  [~eddyxu], 
thank you for contributing the patch.

> Currently, in several tests, e.g., {{TestDataNodeVolumeFailureXXX}} and 
> {{TestDataNotHowSwapVolumes}},  we simulate a disk failure by setting a 
> directory's executable permission as false. However, it raises the risk that 
> if the cleanup code could not be executed, the directory can not be easily 
> removed by Jenkins job. 
> Since in {{DiskChecker#checkDirAccess}}:
> {code}
> private static void checkDirAccess(File dir) throws DiskErrorException {
>     if (!dir.isDirectory()) {
>       throw new DiskErrorException("Not a directory: "
>                                    + dir.toString());
>     }
>     checkAccessByFileMethods(dir);
>   }
> {code}
> We can replace the DN data directory as a file to achieve the same fault 
> injection goal, while it is safer for cleaning up in any circumstance. 
> Additionally, as [~cnauroth] suggested: 
> bq. That might even let us enable some of these tests that are skipped on 
> Windows, because Windows allows access for the owner even after permissions 
> have been stripped.
