[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-12951) Improve documentation on KMS ACLs and delegation tokens

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12951?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15205310#comment-15205310 ] 

Xiao Chen commented on HADOOP-12951:
------------------------------------

Patch 1 explains the current relation between KMS ACL and Key ACL. Also corrected some outdated texts regarding delegation tokens. I have to admit that my understanding towards delegation token is limited, but IIUC, we don't need extra configs for it on HA since the configurations in 'HTTP Authentication Signature' already explains it.

> [~andrew.wang] suggested that the current KMS ACL page is not very user-focused, and hard to come by without reading the code.
> I read the document (and the code), and I agree. So this jira puts more documentation to explain the current implementation.
