             Summary: FileSystem
                 Key: HADOOP-15094
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15094
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Steve Loughran


Discussion around SPARK-22587 highlights how per-fs notions of a canonical URI 
make it hard to determine if a file is on a specific filesystem, or, put 
differently, if two filesystems are equivalent.

You can't reliably use this.getUri == that.getUri as it doesn't handle FQDN == 
unqualified DN, bit you can't do nslookup as HDFS HA doesn't use hosnames.

If {{FileSystem.getCanonicalUri()}} were public, then this could be used to 
compare things consistently.

needs: filesystem.md coverage; contract test (two filesystem instances are 
equal, different filesystems aren't). Or at least: this method never returns 
null.
