Hudson commented on HADOOP-7268: -------------------------------- Integrated in Hadoop-Common-trunk #685 (See [https://builds.apache.org/hudson/job/Hadoop-Common-trunk/685/]) HADOOP-7268. FileContext.getLocalFSFileContext() behavior needs to be fixed w.r.t tokens. Contributed by jitendra. > FileContext.getLocalFSFileContext() behavior needs to be fixed w.r.t tokens > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7268 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7268 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs, security > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Devaraj Das > Assignee: Jitendra Nath Pandey > Fix For: 0.23.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-7268.1.patch > > > FileContext.getLocalFSFileContext() instantiates a FileContext object upon > the first call to it, and for all subsequent calls returns back that instance > (a static localFsSingleton object). With security turned on, this causes some > hard-to-debug situations when that fileContext is used for doing HDFS > operations. This is because the UserGroupInformation is stored when a > FileContext is instantiated. If the process in question wishes to use > different UserGroupInformation objects for different file system operations > (where the corresponding FileContext objects are obtained via calls to > FileContext.getLocalFSFileContext()), it doesn't work. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
