Charles Lamb updated HDFS-6705:
-------------------------------
    Attachment: HDFS-6705.007.patch

bq. I see getXAttrs and unprotectedGetXAttrs in this patch; is this change 
supposed to be here?

Yes. This is in response to your previous comment "We're still doing another 
path resolution to do checkUnreadableBySuperuser. Can we try to reuse the inode 
from the IIP just below? This would also let us avoid throwing IOException in 
the check method."

bq. Would still prefer if in the test, special1 was renamed to something else 
like security1

Oh sorry. When you said "Mention of "special" xattr is non-specific, could we 
say "unreadable by superuser" or "UBS" or something instead?" I thought you 
were only referring to the comments. Anyway, I've changed it from special1 to 
security1.

> There needs to be an xattr that specifies that the HDFS admin can not access 
> a file. This is needed for m/r delegation tokens and data at rest encryption.
