    Resolution: Not A Problem

> Unexpected behavior for Window functions
> ----------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-28225
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-28225
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
>            Reporter: Andrew Leverentz
>            Priority: Major
>
> I've noticed some odd behavior when combining the "first" aggregate function 
> with an ordered Window.
> In particular, I'm working with columns created using the syntax
> {code}
> first($"y", ignoreNulls = true).over(Window.orderBy($"x"))
> {code}
> Below, I'm including some code which reproduces this issue in a Databricks 
> notebook.
> *Code:*
> {code:java}
> import org.apache.spark.sql.functions.first
> import org.apache.spark.sql.expressions.Window
> import org.apache.spark.sql.Row
> import org.apache.spark.sql.types.{StructType,StructField,IntegerType}
> val schema = StructType(Seq(
>   StructField("x", IntegerType, false),
>   StructField("y", IntegerType, true),
>   StructField("z", IntegerType, true)
> ))
> val input =
>   spark.createDataFrame(sc.parallelize(Seq(
>     Row(101, null, 11),
>     Row(102, null, 12),
>     Row(103, null, 13),
>     Row(203, 24, null),
>     Row(201, 26, null),
>     Row(202, 25, null)
>   )), schema = schema)
> input.show
> val output = input
>   .withColumn("u1", first($"y", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".asc_nulls_last)))
>   .withColumn("u2", first($"y", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".asc)))
>   .withColumn("u3", first($"y", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".desc_nulls_last)))
>   .withColumn("u4", first($"y", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".desc)))
>   .withColumn("u5", first($"z", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".asc_nulls_last)))
>   .withColumn("u6", first($"z", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".asc)))
>   .withColumn("u7", first($"z", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".desc_nulls_last)))
>   .withColumn("u8", first($"z", ignoreNulls = 
> true).over(Window.orderBy($"x".desc)))
> output.show
> {code}
> *Expectation:*
> Based on my understanding of how ordered-Window and aggregate functions work, 
> the results I expected to see were:
>  * u1 = u2 = constant value of 26
>  * u3 = u4 = constant value of 24
>  * u5 = u6 = constant value of 11
>  * u7 = u8 = constant value of 13
> However, columns u1, u2, u7, and u8 contain some unexpected nulls. 
> *Results:*
> {code:java}
