Jitendra Nath Pandey commented on HADOOP-6994:
----------------------------------------------
The latest patch fixes FilterFileSystem and FilterFS. The renew and cancel
delegation token APIs are removed from the patch. These APIs should be
implemented as a util methods in SecurityUtil and the filesystem to renew or
cancel can be figured out from the service and kind set in the token itself.
Implementation in SecurityUtil will be taken up in a separate jira.

> APIs to get delegation tokens is required in AbstractFileSystem.
> AbstractFileSystems are accessed via file context therefore an API to get
> list of AbstractFileSystems accessed in a path is also needed.
> A path may refer to several file systems and delegation tokens could be
> needed for many of them for a client to be able to successfully access the
> path.
