    Description

      In the SparkSubmit code, we call resolveGlobPaths, which eventually calls getFileStatus, which for HDFS is an RPC call to the NameNode: https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/SparkSubmit.scala#L346.

      We do this before we call loginUserFromKeytab, which is further down in the same method: https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/SparkSubmit.scala#L655.

      The result is that the call to resolveGlobPaths fails in secure clusters with:

      javax.security.sasl.SaslException: GSS initiate failed [Caused by GSSException: No valid credentials provided (Mechanism level: Failed to find any Kerberos tgt)]
      

      A workaround is to kinit on the host before using spark-submit. However, it's better if this workaround isn't necessary. A simple fix is to call loginUserFromKeytab before attempting to interact with HDFS.

      At least for cluster mode, this would appear to be a regression caused by SPARK-21012.
