Kihwal Lee updated HDFS-10776:
------------------------------
    Description: 
HDFS audit logging is considered critical in many scenarios, but it hasn't been 
always implemented consistently, especially for new features. As we have seen 
in HDFS-9395 and the 2.7.3 release discussions in the mailing list, even bug 
fixes are tricky since some users may get greatly impacted by the resulting 
incompatibility. The goal of this jira is to clarify what the hdfs audit 
logging should do and discuss potential approaches that will allows us to move 
forward.

1) What is the correct way of doing the hdfs audit logging? This was discussed 
in HDFS-9395, but needs to be revisited as there were discussions on the fix 
being made with wrong assumptions. What needs to be fixed, if HDFS-9395 is 
incorrect or incomplete?
2) What if a single standard cannot satisfy everyone? Do we need to make the 
audit logging more flexible and configurable?
3) What is the best way of introducing future bug fixes to the hdfs audit 
logging that change the output?  Some may not want a fix, while others may 
consider it critical and want it asap.
