    Description

      HDFS exposes the INode ID as a long via HdfsFileStatus::getFileId. Since equality is the only valid client operation (sequential/monotonically increasing ids are not guaranteed in any spec; leases do not rely on any other property), this identifier can be opaque instead of assigning it a primitive type in HdfsFileStatus.
