Jimmy Xiang updated HBASE-8662:
-------------------------------
Attachment: trunk-8662_v4.patch
I attached patch v4. It uses AuthFilter which can pass configuration to auth
handlers to support plugability. It uses a context to store thread local
effective user for impersonation per RPC call, instead of maintaining
connections per context. This way doesn't involve too much code change to pass
the effective user from client down to the RPC layer.
> [rest] support impersonation
