[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-7463) Adding a configuration parameter to SecurityInfo interface.

Adding a configuration parameter to SecurityInfo interface.
-----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-7463
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7463
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Mahadev konar
            Assignee: Mahadev konar
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.23.0


HADOOP-6929 allowed to make implementations/providers of SecurityInfo to be configurable via service class loaders. For adding Security to TunnelProtocols, configuration is needed to figure out which particular interface getKerberosInfo is called for. Just the class name is not enough since its always TunnerProtocol for all the interfaces. I propose adding a config to getKerberosInfo, so that its easy for TunnerProtocols to get the information they need.
