   The API is declared Public, Evolving. If it stays in Hadoop 3.4.0 I am fine 
with it.
   
   We used to have an audit logger (Cloudera Navigator) that extends the 
AuditLogger interface. But we've moved away from that.
   
   Performance:
   It would have a slight performance penalty because every audit log op will 
always convert InetAddress to a string, regardless if audit logger is off 
(audit log level = debug or dfs.namenode.audit.log.debug.cmdlist has the 
excluded op)). It's probably acceptable since audit is logged outside of 
namenode lock.
   
   CallerContext:
    the caller context is probably a better option when you want to do 
fine-grained post-mortem anyway. Maybe we can modify the caller context to 
attach remote port so that it doesn't break api compatibility. Just a thought.
