             Summary: Remove AclReadFlag and AclWriteFlag in FileSystem API
                 Key: HDFS-5650
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5650
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Haohui Mai
            Assignee: Haohui Mai


AclReadFlag and AclWriteFlag intended to capture various options used in 
getfacl and setfacl. These options determine whether the tool should traverse 
the filesystem recursively, follow the symlink, etc., but they are not part of 
the core ACLs abstractions.

The client program has more information and more flexibility to implement these 
options. This jira proposes to remove these flags to simplify the APIs.
