GetBucketLocation API is behaving wierdly with bucket with region us-east-1

0

Hi. I am using AWS's getbucketlocation api to find the region of a particular bucket. I am getting proper expected results with all regions except for buckets belonging to region us-east-1. Is there any reason for such behaviour?

The GetBucketLocation API is expected to return null for buckets in us-east-1 [1]. This likely has something to do with it being the original region, and main region for S3 [2].
