Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13343:
-----------------------------------------

This sounds like your opportunity to define what globStatus is meant to do as 
part of HADOOP-12177 ; I've looked at it when doing HADOOP-13207, but decided I 
was scared.

We really need written down what globStatus is meant to do here

> globStatus returns null for file path that exists but is filtered

> If a file path without globs is passed to globStatus and the file exists but 
> the specified input filter suppresses it then globStatus will return null 
> instead of an empty array.  This makes it impossible for the caller to 
> discern the difference between the file not existing at all vs. being 
> suppressed by the filter and is inconsistent with the way it handles globs 
> for an existing dir but fail to match anything within the dir.
