nsivabalan opened a new pull request, #6248:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/6248

   ## What is the purpose of the pull request
   
   From 0.12, we are standardizing the default partition value for hudi as 
"__HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION__". Previously, hudi was using "default" as the 
default value (i.e. if partition column is null, this fallback value will be 
used). The fix was put up so that query engines will not run into any class 
cast exception if original partition path fields are non string types. But 
after this fix, we might need to migrate older hudi tables. ie. if "default" 
partition exists, we have to rewrite it to "__HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION__". This 
patch is adding an upgrade step, where we detect such hudi tables and fail the 
upgrade. And added instructions on what needs to be done before upgrading. 
   
   ## Brief change log
   
   - Added FourToFiveUpgradeHandler to detect hudi tables with "default" 
partition and throwing exception.
