IMPALA-10913: Produce Ranger audit log for SHOW DATABASES

This patch makes Impala produce Ranger audit log for the SHOW DATABASES
and the SHOW DATABASES LIKE statements. Moreover, this patch enforces
the authorization check for the default database, meaning that the
default database will not be shown if the requesting user is not
authorized to view this database according to the Ranger policy
repository. To support this new type of authorization check, we added
the class AuthorizableDbList to represent the object to be accessed by
those two statements.

Note that this patch generates the same RangerAccessRequestImpl for the
SHOW DATABASES statement as Hive does when Ranger is the authorization
provider. Specifically, in
https://github.com/apache/ranger/blob/668b80b/hive-agent/src/main/java/org/apache/ranger/authorization/hive/authorizer/RangerHiveAuthorizer.java#L806-L811
for the operation of SHOWDATABASES, the constructor of
RangerHiveResource does not populate any field in
RangerAccessResourceImpl with a non-null value. Moreover, when
HiveAccessType.USE is passed to the constructor of
RangerHiveAccessRequest, under the covers 'accessType' in
RangerAccessRequestImpl will be set to "_any" as shown in
RangerHiveAccessRequest#setHiveAccessType().

Testing:
 - Added test cases to make sure the Ranger audit event will be
   produced.
 - Added test cases to verify the database 'default' will not be shown
   if the requesting user is not allowed to discover the database based
   on the Ranger policy repository.

Welcome to Impala

Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in open data and table formats.

Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:

More about Impala

The fastest way to try out Impala is a quickstart Docker container. You can try out running queries and processing data sets in Impala on a single machine without installing dependencies. It can automatically load test data sets into Apache Kudu and Apache Parquet formats and you can start playing around with Apache Impala SQL within minutes.

To learn more about Impala as a user or administrator, or to try Impala, please visit the Impala homepage. Detailed documentation for administrators and users is available at Apache Impala documentation.

If you are interested in contributing to Impala as a developer, or learning more about Impala's internals and architecture, visit the Impala wiki.

Supported Platforms

Impala only supports Linux at the moment. Impala supports x86_64 and has experimental support for arm64 (as of Impala 4.0). Impala Requirements contains more detailed information on the minimum CPU requirements.

Supported OS Distributions

Impala runs on Linux systems only. The supported distros are

  • Ubuntu 16.04/18.04
  • CentOS/RHEL 7/8

Other systems, e.g. SLES12, may also be supported but are not tested by the community.

Export Control Notice

This distribution uses cryptographic software and may be subject to export controls. Please refer to EXPORT_CONTROL.md for more information.

Build Instructions

See Impala's developer documentation to get started.

Detailed build notes has some detailed information on the project layout and build.
