Luke Lu commented on HADOOP-9421:
---------------------------------

bq.  Simply protobuf-ing the existing sasl protocol isn't necessarily going to 
give us the flexibility we need going forward.

Using protobuf with only one required version field for client request and all 
optional fields for server response should cover (for protocol evolution) all 
the cases mentioned here and else where (HADOOP-9392 etc.). Do you have any 
specific concern about this approach?

The main concern is that it may take a while to address all the related issues 
for SASL, given the all parallel evolving JIRAs in this area. Resolving this 
JIRA first would allow a scale testing of RPC v9 for 2.0.5 beta ASAP to 
discover any potential issues early.
