WebHdfsFileSystem does not enforce SPNEGO when using connectionFactory because the jdk automatically performs SPNEGO when a response is received with 401 + header 'WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate'.
This part actually works fine, WebHdfsFileSystem gets a delegation token with SPNEGO and continues with this token.
However, if we expect hostname canonicalization, the jdk has some restrictions and forces the canonical hostname to be a longer format of the hostname, otherwise it is ignored. This behavior can be found in class sun.security.krb5.PrincipalName, in the constructor:
This means that when reaching namenodes via consul for instance (ex. hadoop-hdfs-namenode-active-root.query.consul.preprod.crto.in) the canonicalization is purely ignored by the jdk because the canonicalized hostname is something like {something}.{dc}.hpc.criteo.(pre)prod
This commit allows the possibility to canonicalize namenode addresses in WebHdfsFileSystem to overcome this issue. This behavior is activated by the property
dfs.webhdfs.host.canonicalize.enabled
(default: false)
