-----------------------------------
Summary: NameNode: implement handling of ACLs in combination with
symlinks.
Key: HDFS-5613
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5613
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: namenode
Reporter: Chris Nauroth
A symlink in HDFS does not have an ACL of its own. Operations that modify the
ACL of a symlink instead modify the target of the symlink. For operations that
enforce ACLs, enforcement is on the target of the symlink. This is similar to
existing handling of permissions for symlinks.
