> Currently, when get the metadata from hive, eg, "show tables", "show
> databases". Sentry will filter the result and output the authorized entities.
> There will be many RPC calls when filtering the result. The related code is
> in HiveAuthzBinding, for example, in filterShowTables:
> {code}
> ......
> for (String tableName : queryResult) {
> ......
> hiveAuthzBinding.authorize(operation, tableMetaDataPrivilege, subject,
> inputHierarchy,
> outputHierarchy, providedPrivileges);
> ......
> }
> ......
> {code}
> hiveAuthzBinding.authorize will get the privileges from sentry service, if
> there are many tables in the hive, the filtering process will spend much
> time. Considering sentry also need to filter the column, HiveAuthzBinding
> should be improved to reduce the number of rpc calls when doing the filter.
