Uma Maheswara Rao G commented on HDFS-6283:
-------------------------------------------

Thanks a lot Andrew for the documentation!

Here are my quick comments on the patch!

dfs.namenode.inode.xattrs.max-limits  --> dfs.namenode.inode.xattrs.max-limit

{code}
* <<<dfs.namenode.inode.xattrs.name.max-length>>>
+
+  The maximum length of the name of an extended attribute. By default, this 
limit is 64 characters.
+
+  * <<<dfs.namenode.inode.xattrs.value.max-length>>>
+
+  The maximum length of the value of an extended attribute. By default, this 
limit is 16384 bytes.
{code}
Please update as per JIRA HDFS-6377
Also need update in hdfs-default.xml 

XAttrCommands is from common code, so can you leave that changes in that file 
here. May we can handle that improvement as part of HADOOP-10561?

Dump all extended *attribute* values associated with pathname --> Dump all 
values of the extended *attributes* associated with pathname
Displays the extended *attribute* names and values  --> Displays the names and 
values of the extended *attributes* ?

> Write end user documentation for xattrs.
