Andrew Wang resolved HDFS-5026.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> getFileStatus and getFileLinkStatus do not properly handle intermediate
> symlinks in a path
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-5026
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5026
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.1.0-beta
> Reporter: Andrew Wang
>
> Imagine a filesystem with the following:
> {noformat}
> /dir
> /dir/file
> /dirLink -> /dir
> {noformat}
> When calling getFileStatus or getFileLinkStatus on {{/dirLink/file}}, the
> returned FileStatus incorrectly has the resolved path of {{/dir/file}}. This
> differs from expectations and the Unix {{stat(1)}} command, which would
> return {{/dirLink/file}}.
