Sreekanth Ramakrishnan updated HADOOP-4930:
-------------------------------------------

    Attachment: HADOOP-4930-6.patch

Attaching patch incorporating Hemanth's offline comment.

* Made changes in build.xml to introduce a new target task-controller to build 
task-controller binary.
** target requires -Dhadoop.conf.dir or HADOOP_CONF_DIR set.
*** if HADOOP_CONF_DIR is set and hadoop.conf.dir is passed, then 
hadoop.conf.dir value is used.
*** if either one of them is defined then that value is used.
*** if none of t hem is defined then build fails.
** Default install directory for the binary is distribution directory/bin. This 
can be overriden by passing -Dtask-controller.install.dir=$HADOOP_HOME/bin

> HADOOP-4490 tracks the design and implementation of launching tasks as job 
> owners. As per discussion there, the proposal is to implement a setuid 
> executable for Linux that would be launched by the tasktracker to run tasks 
> as the job owners. In this task we will track the implementation of the 
> setuid executable. HADOOP-4490 will be used to track changes in the 
> tasktracker.
