Jack Fan created ARROW-8588:
-------------------------------

             Summary: `driver` param removed from `hdfs.connect()`
                 Key: ARROW-8588
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8588
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python
    Affects Versions: 0.17.0
            Reporter: Jack Fan


Hi,

It appears in ARROW-7863 the `driver` param was removed from `hdfs.connect()` function. However, if I understand it correctly, ARROW-7863 should only remove `libhdfs3` related tests, not disabling it entirely.

If I instantiate `pyarrow.HadoopFileSystem` class directly, it is still able to take in the `driver` param.

Can the arrow project check whether this change in API is intended?

Also, even if it is intended, this is a breaking change and deserves some documentation around it.
