--------------------------------------------

Hi [~daryn]

Thanks for reply.

 
 # In getLoginUser(), there can be a still race condition, as setLoginUser() 
can be called from loginUserFromSubject/loginUserFromKeytab, which might change 
*_loginUserRef._*

Can we update the getLoginUser() as below, this will only penalize during 
initial creation of loginUserRef Object.
{code:java}
UserGroupInformation loginUser = logiUserRef;
if (loginUser == null) {
 synchronized(UserGroupInformation.class) {
 if (loginUser == null) {
 loginUser = createLoginUser(null);
 loginUserRef = loginUser;
 }
 }
}
return loginUser;{code}
 

 

   2. So, for this setLoginUser should be synchronized.

I think this might improvise the code, and also handle race condition. Could 
you please let me know your thoughts?
