----------------------------------
Summary: Add coarse URI check for Hive Agent
Key: RANGER-3298
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-3298
Project: Ranger
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: plugins
Reporter: Janus Chow
In `RangerHiveAuthorizer`, the function of `checkPrivileges` will check the
permission for the `HivePrivilegeObject` with
`FileUtils.isActionPermittedForFileHierarchy`, and this method will check the
permission for all the files under the related directory by default.
For a large table with thousands of files, this operation will take a long
time, leading to breaking the SLA. Besides, in the default implementation of
`StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider` in Hive, only the directories will be
checked too.
This ticket is to add a config for users to do a coarse check for URI
permission check.
