Charles Lamb commented on HDFS-6375:
------------------------------------
I thought briefly about whether hdfs -dfs getfattr -d should use the new
listXAttrs api in this patch, but it seems that the linux equivalent dumps keys
and values, so the current implementation in XAttrCommands is "correct".
{noformat}
[cwl@localhost dir]$ getfattr -d blort
# file: blort
user.attr="val"
user.foo="fred"
{noformat}
> Listing extended attributes with the search permission

> From the attr(5) manpage:
> {noformat}
> Users with search access to a file or directory may retrieve a list of
> attribute names defined for that file or directory.
> {noformat}
> This is like doing {{getfattr}} without the {{-d}} flag, which we currently
> don't support.
