Chris Nauroth commented on HDFS-5608:
-------------------------------------

[[email protected]] and [~renil.joseph], thank you for volunteering to 
work on this.

Can you describe how this patch was generated?  I can't seem to apply it to the 
HDFS-4685 branch:
{code}
> patch -p0 < ~/patch/HDFS-5608.0.patch 
patching file 
hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/namenode/web/resources/NamenodeWebHdfsMethods.java
patch: **** malformed patch at line 107: @@ -713,6 +747,10 @@
{code}

Since I couldn't apply it, I couldn't do a complete code review, but here are a 
few comments to get started:
# {{AclPermissionParam}}: Is this a new class missing from the patch?
# {{NamenodeWebHdfsMethods}}: Note that the API has changed from GETACLS to 
GETACLSTATUS, which returns the ACL of a single file or directory.  This is 
going to simplify WebHDFS a lot, because you won't need a {{StreamingOutput}} 
to handle multiple items in a result set anymore.  I recommend looking at the 
new version of the design document (revision 2) that I uploaded to HDFS-4685 
today.
# {{JsonUtil#toJsonString}}: The owner should be available on the {{AclStatus}} 
object by now, so you can use that instead of the string "Test".
# {{JsonUtil#aclConvertion}}: Is this method name a typo?  (Is it supposed to 
be aclConversion?)  There has been a design change in the JSON output so that 
the ACL entries are much simpler.  We're just going to put the string 
representation of each ACL entry into a JSON array.  Once again, this is 
covered in the new revision of the design document.
# {{DFSConfigKeys#DFS_WEBHDFS_ACL_PERMISSION_PATTERN_DEFAULT}}: This appears to 
be unused, unless it's used in the missing {{AclPermissionParam}}.
# {{FsAction}}: I expect you won't need to change this class anymore.  I 
committed HADOOP-10187 today, which added a similar helper method.  If you sync 
up to the latest code from the HDFS-4685 branch, you should see that method.
