Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-11452:
-----------------------------------------
I think we could make the IOEs raised in the base impl {{PathIOException}}
instances, as S3aFS does in its subclass {{RenameFailedException}} —that one
also declares the true/false exit code to return in the rename/2 method. if we
pull that class up into hadoop-common, then other implementations can move to
it to restructure some of their rename logic
> Revisit FileSystem.rename(path, path, options)

> Currently in {{FileSystem}}, {{rename}} with _Rename options_ is protected
> and with _deprecated_ annotation. And the default implementation is not
> atomic.
> So this method is not able to be used outside. On the other hand, HDFS has a
> good and atomic implementation. (Also an interesting thing in {{DFSClient}},
> the _deprecated_ annotations for these two methods are opposite).
> It makes sense to make public for {{rename}} with _Rename options_, since
> it's atomic for rename+overwrite, also it saves RPC calls if user desires
> rename+overwrite.
