---------------------------------------
Summary: Fix race condition causing NPE during dynamic partition
loading
Key: HIVE-24862
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24862
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan
Following properties default to 15 threads.
{noformat}
hive.load.dynamic.partitions.thread
hive.mv.files.thread
{noformat}
During loadDynamicPartitions, it ends ups initializing {{newFiles}} without
synchronization (HIVE-20661, HIVE-24738).
[https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/metadata/Hive.java#L2871]
This causes race condition when dynamic partition thread internally makes use
of {{hive.mv.files.threads}} in copyFiles/replaceFiles.
This causes "NPE" during retrieval in {{addInsertFileInformation()}}.

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
