------------------------------------------
Summary: *DropPartitionEvent should handle partition-sets.
Key: HIVE-9674
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9674
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Metastore
Affects Versions: 0.14.0
Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
Assignee: Mithun Radhakrishnan
Dropping a set of N partitions from a table currently results in N
DropPartitionEvents (and N PreDropPartitionEvents) being fired serially. This
is wasteful, especially so for large N. It also makes it impossible to even try
to run authorization-checks on all partitions in a batch.
Taking the cue from HIVE-9603, we should compose an {{Iterable<Partition>}} in
the event, and expose them via an {{Iterator}}.
