Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-6007:
--------------------------------------------
Looks good, I think we're getting close.
{code}
+ Legacy short-circuit local reads implementation
+ on which the clients directly open the HDFS block files is still available
+ for the platforms other than Linux.
{code}
Missing "the"
{code}
+ Because Legacy short-circuit local reads is insecure,
+ access to this feature is limited to the users listed in
+ the value of <<<dfs.block.local-path-access.user>>>.
{code}
I think this section needs to be moved after the section about
dfs.datanode.data.dir.perm. Otherwise it's not clear why the legacy SCR is
insecure.
