Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-13066:
----------------------------------------

bq. Interestingly, it sets keytabFile and keytabPrincipal statics, but not 
loginUser.

The prior values get restored at the end of the method, so there are no 
long-term side effects.  Unfortunately, the use of global {{static}} state in 
UGI does make the code hard to follow.

> UserGroupInformation.loginWithKerberos/getLoginUser is not thread-safe

> When calling loginFromKerberos, a static variable is set up with the result. 
> If someone logs in as a different user from a different thread, the call to 
> getLoginUser will not return the correct UGI.
