Andy Isaacson commented on HDFS-3907:
-------------------------------------
LGTM, could we also get a test that tests the single-user case? Your current
patch changes testGetBlockLocalPathInfo to test two-user case, let's preserve
the existing single-user case and add a new test to test two-user case.
Similarly,
{code}
- // Now try with a not allowed user.
+ // Try with the other allowed user
{code}
we should continue to test with a not allowed user and add a new test to test
with the other allowed user.
> Allow multiple users for local block readers

> The {{dfs.block.local-path-access.user}} config added in HDFS-2246 only
> supports a single user, however as long as blocks are group readable by more
> than one user the feature could be used by multiple users, to support this we
> just need to allow both to be configured. In practice this allows us to also
> support HBase where the client (RS) runs as the hbase system user and the DN
> runs as hdfs system user. I think this should work secure as well since we're
> not using impersonation in the HBase case.
