baohe-zhang opened a new pull request #30126:
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/30126


   ### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   This patch separates the view permission checks from the getAppUi in 
FsHistoryServerProvider, thus enabling SHS to do view permissions check of a 
given attempt for a given user without rebuilding the UI. This is achieved by 
adding a method "checkUIViewPermissions(appId: String, attemptId: 
Option[String], user: String): Boolean" to many layers of history server 
components. Currently, this feature is useful for event log download.
   
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   Right now, when we want to download the event logs from the spark history 
server, SHS will need to parse entire the event log to rebuild UI, and this is 
just for view permission checks. UI rebuilding is a time-consuming and 
memory-intensive task, especially for large logs. However, this process is 
unnecessary for event log download. With this patch, UI rebuild can be skipped 
when downloading event logs from the history server. Thus the time of 
downloading a GB scale event log can be reduced from several minutes to several 
seconds, and the memory consumption of UI rebuilding can be avoided.
   
   
   ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
   No.
   
   
   ### How was this patch tested?
   Added a unit test for fsHistoryProvider.checkUIViewPermissions(). Also did 
some manual tests to verify the download speed can be drastically improved and 
the view permissions check works properly.
