[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-8726) The Secrets in Credentials are not available to MR tasks

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8726?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13442486#comment-13442486 ] 

Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-8726:
-------------------------------------

This doesn't work.  Tokens can be added directly to the UGI and this patch won't return them.  A new {{UGI}} wrapping the {{Subject}} also won't "see" its tokens.  The {{Credentials}} needs to be constructed from the {{Subject}}.

I think the correct approach is for {{UGI#getCredentials}} to also extract the secrets from the {{Subject}}.  While working on HADOOP-8225 I noticed the secrets aren't propagate, but I didn't address the issue since I wasn't sure what impact it might have.
