[jira] [Updated] (HDFS-15545) (S)Webhdfs will not use updated delegation tokens available in the ugi after the old ones expire

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-15545?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Issac Buenrostro updated HDFS-15545:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
WebHdfsFileSystem can select a delegation token to use from the current user UGI. The token selection is sticky, and WebHdfsFileSystem will re-use it every time without searching the UGI again.

If the previous token expires, WebHdfsFileSystem will catch the exception and attempt to get a new token. However, the mechanism to get a new token bypasses searching for one on the UGI, so even if there is external logic that has retrieved a new token, it is not possible to make the FileSystem use the new, valid token, rendering the FileSystem object unusable.

A simple fix would allow WebHdfsFileSystem to re-search the UGI, and if it finds a different token than the cached one try to use it.
