Eric Evans reopened CASSANDRA-4664:
-----------------------------------
Prior to this commit connecting clients were not allowed to modify {{system}} keyspace schema, after this change, writes of any kind are disallowed. Was this intentional?
This breaks the design of {{shuffle}} (CASSANDRA-4443).

I'm pretty sure we've never disallowed that intentionally. The alternative, when you need to do something manually, is sstable2json or otherwise manually messing with sstable files. I'd much rather advise someone to TRUNCATE system.hints, than to get his hands dirty with the filesystem, to pick a non-hypothetical example.

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-4664:
---------------------------------------------
bq. I'm pretty sure we've never disallowed system keyspace writes intentionally
I don't know who exactly added that code but I would have opened a bug report if it wasn't there. I really think allowing write in the system table in general is really really bad idea. You can very easily mess us your node in subtle way. And I couldn't swear there isn't ways to mess up a good part of your cluster by writing something you should in the schema tables or in some value propagated by gossip.
This is not saying no user interaction should ever translate to a write in the system table, and I'm all for adding a jmx call to truncate hints (doesn't that exist already?), but unrestricted writes feels like way to much power to give by default.

Scratch my last. When I applied that patch, 2/3 hunks failed, and I think I must have made some mistake in rebasing the changes. I've rerebased it (updated patch attached), and it seems fine.
Pavel: If I don't hear anything from you in the next day or so, I'll go ahead and commit this so that CASSANDRA-4443 can move forward.

Unlike some tools, I think users intuitively get that "writing stuff to system keyspace when I don't know what I'm doing is very dangerous." We've allowed that in every major release and I don't remember a single instance of someone blowing his leg off.

bq. We've allowed that in every major release
I though we weren't allowing it but that's my bad, the only thing we forbid is to modify the system schema. I still don't think it's wise per se (and I think the fact that CQL3 exposes the system table in a human readable way will make it more tempting/easy for some to try to be smart though I may well be wrong) but I do lift my objections.

Pavel Yaskevich commented on CASSANDRA-4664:
--------------------------------------------
I agree with Sylvain on this because it was actually a bug which allowed system keyspace to be modified which I fixed in this issue, if you want to modify system keyspace it could be done using CQL3's processInternal call on server-side, as Brandon suggested shuffle could be moved to use JMX+processInternal for insertes and CQL for retrieval.

bq. +1 from me if we have settled on the point that we want to allow users to make modifications to the system keyspace's data.
This looks as close to consensus as we're going to get, so I've committed this, (and of course, if I'm wrong and there _are_ objections, feel free to reopen the ticket).

[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-4664) Rename permission USE to
DESCRIBE.
Posted by "Sylvain Lebresne (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4664?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13462050#comment-13462050 ]
Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-4664:
