------------------------------------
Summary: Add Authorization interface to support information_schema
integration with external authorization
Key: HIVE-18777
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18777
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Thejas M Nair
Assignee: Thejas M Nair
HIVE-1010 added support for information_schema. However, the authorization
information is not integrated when another project such as Ranger is used to do
the authorization.
We need to add API which Ranger/Sentry can implement, so that it is possible to
retrieve authorization policy information from them.
The existing API only supports checking if user has a permission on an object
and can't be used to retrieve policy details.
