James Clampffer updated HDFS-11908:
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Status: Resolved (was: Patch Available)
Committed this to HDFS-8707. HDFS-12111 filed for CI testing.
The manual tests I did were pretty simple: set up an HA kerberized cluster and
make sure dfs.namenodes has the standby NN listed first. When it tries to fail
over and connect to the active you'll get warnings about simple auth not being
supported. Apply this patch and those go away. Same thing with the first NN
shut down. Repeated the test with gdb attached to make sure that AuthInfo was
actually being default initialized to use simple auth in the failing case and
sasl auth with patch.

>
> Library won't properly authenticate to kerberized HA cluster if the first
> namenode it tries to connect to is the standby. RpcConnection ends up
> attempting to use simple auth.
> Control flow to connect to NN for the first time:
> # RpcConnection constructed with a pointer to the RpcEngine as the only
> argument
> # RpcConnection::Connect(server endpoints, auth_info, callback called)
> ** auth_info contains the SASL mechanism to use + the delegation token if we
> already have one
> Control flow to connect to NN after failover:
> # RpcEngine::NewConnection called, allocates an RpcConnection exactly how
> step 1 above would
> # RpcEngine::InitializeConnection called, sets event hooks and a string for
> cluster name
> # Rpc calls sent using RpcConnection::PreEnqueueRequests called to add RPC
> message that didn't make it on last call due to standby exception
> # RpcConnection::ConnectAndFlush called to send RPC packets. This only takes
> server endpoints, no auth info
> To fix:
> RpcEngine::InitializeConnection just needs to set RpcConnection::auth_info_
> from the existing RpcEngine::auth_info_, even better would be setting this in
> the constructor so if an RpcConnection exists it can be expected to be in a
> usable state. I'll get a diff up once I sort out CI build failures.
> Also really need to get CI test coverage for HA and kerberos because this
> issue should not have been around for so long.
