Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-6122:
----------------------------------------
Are you concerned about backward-compat? That we show all privileges for user
with {{ show grant user hive_test_user }} as oppose to only user-level earlier.
Than in HIVE-5928 a new plugin api is implemented, so we can make backward
incompatible change on new api, instead of modifying behavior for existing
syntax of old api. Also, HIVE-5929 has impl of that api.
In other words, only with {{ set
hive.security.authorization.manager=org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.plugin.sqlstd.SQLStdHiveAuthorizerFactory
}} {{ show grant user hive_test_user }} will show all privileges for user,
otherwise old behavior.
> Implement show grant on <resource>

> Currently, hive shows privileges owned by a principal. Reverse API is also
> needed, which shows all principals for a resource.
