Arpit Agarwal commented on HADOOP-10280:
----------------------------------------
Hi [~chrilisf], the change looks fine to me. It is kind of hard for me to
visualize how {{Schedulable#getUserGroupInformation}} and
{{UserIdentityProvider}} are going to be used without a concrete example but
that's not necessarily an issue with the patch.
I'd be +1 on committing it it if Daryn has no objection.
> Make Schedulables return a configurable identity of user or group

> In order to intelligently schedule incoming calls, we need to know what
> identity it falls under.
> We do this by defining the Schedulable interface, which has one method,
> getIdentity(IdentityType idType)
> The scheduler can then query a Schedulable object for its identity, depending
> on what idType is.
> For example:
> Call 1: Made by user=Alice, group=admins
> Call 2: Made by user=Bob, group=admins
> Call 3: Made by user=Carlos, group=users
> Call 4: Made by user=Alice, group=admins
> Depending on what the identity is, we would treat these requests differently.
> If we query on Username, we can bucket these 4 requests into 3 sets for
> Alice, Bob, and Carlos. If we query on Groupname, we can bucket these 4
> requests into 2 sets for admins and users.
> In this initial version, idType can be username or primary group. In future
> versions, it could be jobID, request class (read or write), or some explicit
> QoS field. These are user-defined, and will be reloaded on callqueue refresh.
