Quanlong Huang commented on IMPALA-12190:
-----------------------------------------
Column masking and row filtering policies will also be messed up by RENAME. I
think tag based policy will also be messed up if data lineages are not updated
accordingly.
+1 for a new Ranger API that returns all policies matching a given table (and
optionally for a given user). We also need this to improve IMPALA-11501 to
avoid loading the table schema from HMS. Currently, to check whether a user has
a corresponding column masking policy on a table, we have to load the table to
get all the column names and check whether there are policies on each column,
which is inefficient.

> Let's say user 'a' gets some privileges on table 't'. When this table gets
> renamed (even by user 'a') then user 'a' loses its privileges on that table.
>
> Repro steps:
> # Start impala with Ranger
> # start impala-shell as admin (-u admin)
> # create table tmp (i int, s string) stored as parquet;
> # grant all on table tmp to user <username>;
> # grant all on table tmp to user <username>;
> {code:java}
> Query: show grant user <username> on table tmp
