> If a Hadoop cluster is configured to use ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping for 
> user/group name mapping, occasionally some group names may become 
> unresolvable (for example, using SSSD). 
> ShellBasedUnixGroupsMapping uses shell command "id -Gn" to retrieve the group 
> name of a user; however, the existing logic assumes that if the exit code of 
> the command is non-zero, the user has no group name at all. The shell command 
> in Linux returns non-zero exit code if a group name is not resolvable. 
> Unfortunately, it is possible that a user belongs to multiple groups, and any 
> partial failure in group name resolution would denied the user's access.
> On the other hand, the JNI implementation (JniBasedUnixGroupsMapping) is more 
> resilient. If any group name is unresolvable, it is simply ignored, and 
> whatever are resolvable are returned.
> It is arguable that if the group name is not resolvable, the administrator 
> should configure their directory/authentication service correctly, and Hadoop 
> is in no position to handle it, but since the existing unit tests assume the 
> output of JNI-based and shell-based implementation are the same, we should 
> improve the shell-based group name resolution, and make it as resilient as 
> the JNI-based one.
