--------------------------------------
Hi [~stigahuang], sorry for the late response. I think we could close this JIRA.
There are still some follow-up works to this JIRA, but those would require the
support from Ranger's API's, which is not yet in place.
# https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-3145 (Dropping a role that is
still associated with privileges).
# https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-3150 (Displaying all the
privileges granted to a specified role).
> Add support for role-related statements
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: IMPALA-10211
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10211
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Frontend, Security
> Reporter: Fang-Yu Rao
> Assignee: Fang-Yu Rao
> Priority: Major
> Labels: backwards-compatibility
>
> After IMPALA-9708, we dropped the support for Sentry, an authorization
> service providing role-based authorization. Since then Impala lacks support
> for role-based authorization.
> On the other hand, after RANGER-2425, Ranger added APIs for role-related SQL
> statements. It would be nice to enable role-related SQL statements in Impala
> with Ranger being the authorization provider so that users that were using
> Sentry as the authorization provider could still be using Impala if
> role-based authorization is required.
