-------------------------------------

             Summary: Audit log messages do not include column family / 
qualifier information consistently
                 Key: HBASE-6386
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6386
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
            Reporter: Marcelo Vanzin


The code related to this issue is in AccessController.java:permissionGranted().

When creating audit logs, that method will do one of the following:
* grant access, create audit log with table name only
* deny access because of table permission, create audit log with table name only
* deny access because of column family / qualifier permission, create audit log 
with specific family / qualifier

So, in the case where more than one column family and/or qualifier are in the 
same request, there will be a loss of information. Even in the case where only 
one column family and/or qualifier is involved, information may be lost.

It would be better if this behavior consistently included all the information 
in the request; regardless of access being granted or denied, and regardless 
which permission caused the denial, the column family and qualifier info should 
be part of the audit log message.
