Haohui Mai commented on HDFS-5758:
----------------------------------
I perfer not to baking in the concept of minimal / logical ACLs into the APIs.
Instead, {{getAclStatus}} / {{removeAcl}} should only handle extended ACLs. It
is only the access control that the code needs to take care of logical ACLs.
The clients, notably {{getfacl}}, can generate the logical ACL by reading the
permissions and the extended acl. That's how libacl under linux works.
> NameNode: complete implementation of inode modifications for ACLs.
