Corey J. Nolet updated ACCUMULO-2943: ------------------------------------- Fix Version/s: (was: 1.6.1) 1.6.2 > Usage of SecureRandom with "SUN" as RNG provider causes lots of failures > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ACCUMULO-2943 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2943 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: build > Affects Versions: 1.6.0 > Environment: IBM JVM > Reporter: Hayden Marchant > Assignee: Hayden Marchant > Fix For: 1.6.2, 1.7.0 > > > Both org.apache.accumulo.core.security.crypto.CrypoTest & > org.apache.accumulo.core.file.rfile.RFileTest have lots of failures due to > calls to SEcureRandom with Random Number Generator Provider hard-coded as > Sun. The IBM JVM has it's own built in RNG Provider called IBMJCE. 2 issues - > hard-coded calls to SecureRandom.getInstance(<algo>,"SUN") and also default > value in Property class is "SUN". > Options for proposals: > 1. Add mechanism to override default Property through System property through > new annotator in Property class. Only usage will be by > Property.CRYPTO_SECURE_RNG_PROVIDER > The default is SUN, as coded in the Property class. > Some of the unit tests explicitly call SecureRandom.getInstance() with SUN as > provider. Others rely on the default value, which is SUN (and do not rely on > accumulo-site.xml in which this can be overridden). For the system tests, I > propose adding an override through a System property. For regular execution > of accumulo, accumulo-site.xml can include the adjusted default. However, > system tests will also fall on same problem. > Another solution would be to have a factory class which supplies JVM specific > behaviour, such as default NRG provider - this could be used by the Property > class to retrieve this value based on the System.property for java.vendor > etc..... -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
