Xiao Chen commented on HADOOP-15593:
------------------------------------

Thanks [~gabor.bota] for working on this and others for comments! It makes 
sense to me to improve existing behavior in HADOOP-15622.

>From the JDK issue [~jojochuang] pointed to, it looks like there are some JDK 
>improvement as well (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8147772). 
>{code:java}
     public final java.util.Date getEndTime() {
-        return (Date) endTime.clone();
+        return (endTime == null) ? null : (Date) endTime.clone();
     }
{code}
So we also need to handle getEndTime() == null in the UGI code. Otherwise we'll 
see real NPEs from UGI this time :)

Stepping back, the original exception is from {{KerberosTicket}}, whose 
{{endTime}} is null judging from some [code 
grepping|https://github.com/openjdk-mirror/jdk7u-jdk/blob/master/src/share/classes/javax/security/auth/kerberos/KerberosTicket.java#L482].
 While I think Daryn's comment would make this better, there is no atomicity 
guarantee between the {{tgt.isDestroyed}} check and the {{tgt.getEndTime}} call 
and older versions of JDK could still result in UGI to fail the same way - but 
that's the best we can do here.
