Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli updated HDFS-5293:
------------------------------------------

Not much going on here for a long time, dropping from 2.8.0.
Not putting any target-version either anymore, let's target this depending on
when there is patch activity.
> Symlink resolution requires unnecessary RPCs
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-5293
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5293
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: namenode
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0-alpha1
> Reporter: Daryn Sharp
> Priority: Critical
>
> When the NN encounters a symlink, it throws an {{UnresolvedLinkException}}.
> This exception contains only the path that is a symlink. The client issues
> another RPC to obtain the link target, followed by another RPC with the link
> target + remainder of the original path.
> {{UnresolvedLinkException}} should be returning both the link and the target
> to avoid a costly and unnecessary intermediate RPC to obtain the link target.
