Peter Vary updated HIVE-14100:
------------------------------
Description:
There is an existing current_user() UDF which returns the user provided by the
configured {code}hive.security.authenticator.manager{code}. This is often the
same as the user provided on connection, but some cases, like
HadoopDefaultAuthenticator this could be different.
Some cases we need the logged in user independently of the configured
authenticator, so a new UDF is created which provides this - returns the
{code}SessionState.get().getUserName(){code}.

Using HadoopDeaultAuthenticator the current_user() returns the username of the
unix user running hiveservice2.
Using SessionStateUserAuthenticator the current_user returns the username which
is provided when the connection started.
