------------------------------------
> Make SetProcessor configurable to ignore some set variables
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-26941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26941
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Configuration, Hive
> Reporter: Miklos Szurap
> Assignee: Miklos Szurap
> Priority: Major
> Labels: config, configuration
>
> In certain environments after upgrades we need to restrict users from
> changing some Hive configurations during runtime (for example
> "mapreduce.job.queuename" or "hive.execution.engine").
> The "hive.security.authorization.sqlstd.confwhitelist" could be used for
> this, however:
> * it is complex to modify that sometimes (for example to exclude a config
> which is otherwise allowed with a wildcard)
> * when a user script tries to set a parameter not in the
> "hive.security.authorization.sqlstd.confwhitelist" then the whole script just
> fails with "Error: Error while processing statement: Cannot modify xxxx at
> runtime. It is not in list of params that are allowed to be modified at
> runtime". This would require all the user scripts and jobs to be modified (to
> remove that "set" command), that can be a huge effort.
> With a new configuration item in hive-site.xml cluster operators can
> configure HiveServer2 to ignore the "set" command requests - essentially
> making those settings "final" on HiveServer2 level. Trying to change these
> "final" settings would not fail the scripts - just ignore their request.
> In this jira:
> - add a new config "hive.conf.ignored.variable.list"
> - accepts strings, comma separated list of variables
> - the config is empty by default, it can be set in hive-site.xml only
> - adding the "hive.conf.ignored.variable.list" to the restricted list
> ("hive.conf.restricted.list") internally - so it cannot be modified during
> runtime
> - adding tests for the changes
