Andrew Kyle Purtell updated HBASE-27204:
----------------------------------------
Release Note: When Kerberos authentication succeeds, on the server side,
after receiving the final SASL token from the client, we simply wait for the
client to continue by sending the connection header. After HBASE-24579, on the
client side, an additional readStatus() was added, which assumed that after
negotiation has completed a status code will be sent. However when
authentication has succeeded the server will not send one. As a result the
client would hang and only throw an exception when the configured read timeout
is reached, which is 20 seconds by default. This was especially noticeable when
using BlockingRpcClient as the client implementation. HBASE-24579 was reverted
to correct this issue. (was: When Kerberos authentication succeeds, on the

> Key: HBASE-27204
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-27204
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: rpc, sasl, security
> Reporter: Duo Zhang
> Assignee: Andrew Kyle Purtell
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.5.0, 3.0.0-alpha-4, 2.4.14

>
> Found this when implementing HBASE-27185. When running TestSecureIPC, if
> BlockingRpcClient is used, the tests will spend much more time comparing to
> NettyRpcClient.
> The problem is that, for the normal kerberos authentication, the last step is
> client send a reply to server, so after server receives the last token, it
> will not write anything back but expect client to send connection header.
> In HBASE-24579, for reading the error message, we added a readReply after the
> SaslClient indicates that the negotiation is completed. But as said above,
> for normal cases, we will not write anything back from server side, so the
> client will hang there and only throw an exception when timeout is reached,
> which is 20 seconds.
> This nearly makes the BlockingRpcClient unusable when sasl is enabled, as it
> will hang 20 seconds when connecting...
