Chris Nauroth created HDFS-5739:
-----------------------------------
Summary: ACL RPC must allow null name or null permissions in ACL
entries.
Key: HDFS-5739
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5739
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: hdfs-client, namenode
Affects Versions: HDFS ACLs (HDFS-4685)
Reporter: Chris Nauroth
Assignee: Chris Nauroth
Currently, the ACL RPC defines ACL entries with required fields for name and
permissions. These fields actually need to be optional. The name can be null
to represent unnamed ACL entries, such as the file owner or mask. Permissions
can be null when passed in an ACL spec to remove ACL entries via
{{FileSystem#removeAclEntries}}.
