    Description

      When a user does an 'ls' on a HDFS FUSE mount, dfs_getattr() is called and fuse_dfs attempts to resolve the user's uid into a username string with getUsername(). If this lookup is unsuccessful, getUsername() returns NULL leading to a segfault in hdfsConnCompare().

      Sites storing NSS info in a remote database (such as LDAP) will occasionally have NSS failures if there are connectivity or daemon issues. Running processes accessing the HDFS mount during this time may cause the fuse_dfs process to crash, disabling the mount.

      To reproduce the issue:
      1) Add a new local user
      2) su to the new user
      3) As root, edit /etc/passwd, changing the new user's uid number
      4) As the new user, do an ls on an HDFS FUSE mount. This should cause a segfault.
