Stephen O'Donnell commented on HDFS-14359:
------------------------------------------

After reading more about how Posix ACLs work 
(https://serverfault.com/questions/352783/why-does-chmod1-on-the-group-affect-the-acl-mask),
 I now understand that the traditional group permission bits effectively act as 
a mask for ACLs.

Setting the group permissions to --- (ie nothing) would render all ACLs 
completly disabled, removing write from group, removes write from all ACLs etc.

Therefore, if ACLs should inherit with full permissions on sub directories, the 
group permissions must be rwx on that directory and therefore I think the 
current failing tests need changed to make them expect permissions 770 rather 
than 750.

> Inherited ACL permissions masked when parent directory does not exist (mkdir 
> -p)

> There appears to be an issue with ACL inheritance if you 'mkdir' a directory 
> such that the parent directories need to be created (ie mkdir -p).
> If you have a folder /tmp2/testacls as:
> {code}
> hadoop fs -mkdir /tmp2
> hadoop fs -mkdir /tmp2/testacls
> hadoop fs -setfacl -m default:user:hive:rwx /tmp2/testacls
> hadoop fs -setfacl -m default:user:flume:rwx /tmp2/testacls
> hadoop fs -setfacl -m user:hive:rwx /tmp2/testacls
> hadoop fs -setfacl -m user:flume:rwx /tmp2/testacls
> hadoop fs -getfacl -R /tmp2/testacls
> # file: /tmp2/testacls
> # owner: kafka
> # group: supergroup
> user::rwx
> user:flume:rwx
> user:hive:rwx
> group::r-x
> mask::rwx
> other::r-x
> default:user::rwx
> default:user:flume:rwx
> default:user:hive:rwx
> default:group::r-x
> default:mask::rwx
> default:other::r-x
> {code}
> Then create a sub-directory in it, the ACLs are as expected:
> {code}
> hadoop fs -mkdir /tmp2/testacls/dir_from_mkdir
> # file: /tmp2/testacls/dir_from_mkdir
> # owner: sodonnell
> # group: supergroup
> user::rwx
> user:flume:rwx
> user:hive:rwx
> group::r-x
> mask::rwx
> other::r-x
> default:user::rwx
> default:user:flume:rwx
> default:user:hive:rwx
> default:group::r-x
> default:mask::rwx
> default:other::r-x
> {code}
> However if you mkdir -p a directory, the situation is not the same:
> {code}
> hadoop fs -mkdir -p /tmp2/testacls/dir_with_subdirs/sub1/sub2
> # file: /tmp2/testacls/dir_with_subdirs
> # owner: sodonnell
> # group: supergroup
> user::rwx
> user:flume:rwx        #effective:r-x
> user:hive:rwx #effective:r-x
> group::r-x
> mask::r-x
> other::r-x
> default:user::rwx
> default:user:flume:rwx
> default:user:hive:rwx
> default:group::r-x
> default:mask::rwx
> default:other::r-x
> # file: /tmp2/testacls/dir_with_subdirs/sub1
> # owner: sodonnell
> # group: supergroup
> user::rwx
> user:flume:rwx        #effective:r-x
> user:hive:rwx #effective:r-x
> group::r-x
> mask::r-x
> other::r-x
> default:user::rwx
> default:user:flume:rwx
> default:user:hive:rwx
> default:group::r-x
> default:mask::rwx
> default:other::r-x
> # file: /tmp2/testacls/dir_with_subdirs/sub1/sub2
> # owner: sodonnell
> # group: supergroup
> user::rwx
> user:flume:rwx
> user:hive:rwx
> group::r-x
> mask::rwx
> other::r-x
> default:user::rwx
> default:user:flume:rwx
> default:user:hive:rwx
> default:group::r-x
> default:mask::rwx
> default:other::r-x
> {code}
> Notice the the leaf folder "sub2" is correct, but the two ancestor folders 
> have their permissions masked. I believe this is a regression from the fix 
> for HDFS-6962 with dfs.namenode.posix.acl.inheritance.enabled set to true, as 
> the code has changed significantly from the earlier 2.6 / 2.8 branch.
> I will submit a patch for this.
