Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-9421: ------------------------------------- bq. We do not have a way to test such a major change this late in the game for 2.0. As with a number of things security related, Y! and by extension me are the test. :) bq. Let's leave the SASL part unchanged for V9 (ie Hadoop 2.x) and do a backwards compatible change in trunk; a backwards compatible change is possible because of the version number in the header. We really need to discard the current limited implementation before compatibility is a must. Supporting two implementations will be a huge burden. > Convert SASL to use ProtoBuf and add lengths for non-blocking processing > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-9421 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9421 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha > Reporter: Sanjay Radia > Assignee: Daryn Sharp > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, > HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421.patch, HADOOP-9421-v2-demo.patch > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
