             Summary: Re-login for multiple Hadoop users without updating 
global static UGI attributes
                 Key: HADOOP-16122
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-16122
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: auth
            Reporter: chendihao


In our scenario, we have a service to allow multiple users to access HDFS with 
their keytab. The users have different Hadoop user and permission to access the 
HDFS files. The service will run with multi-threads and create one independent 
UGI object for each user and use the UGI to create Hadoop FileSystem object to 
read/write HDFS.

 

Since we have multiple Hadoop users in the same process, we have to use 
`loginUserFromKeytabAndReturnUGI` instead of `loginUserFromKeytab`. The 
`loginUserFromKeytabAndReturnUGI` will not do the re-login automatically. Then 
we have to call `checkTGTAndReloginFromKeytab` or `reloginFromKeytab` before 
the kerberos ticket expires.

 

The issue is that `reloginFromKeytab` will use the static User and static 
Subject objects to check the authentication and re-login. In fact, we want to 
re-login with the current User and Subject instead of the global static one.

 

Because of this issue, we can only support multiple Hadoop users to login with 
their own keytabs but not re-login when the tickets expire.
