             Summary: Merging join tree may reorder joins which could be invalid
                 Key: HIVE-3464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3464
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.10.0
            Reporter: Navis
            Assignee: Navis


Currently, hive merges join tree from right to left regardless of join types, 
which may introduce join reordering. For example,

select * from a join a b on a.key=b.key join a c on b.key=c.key join a d on 
a.key=d.key; 

Hive tries to merge join tree in a-d=b-d, a-d=a-b, b-c=a-b order and a-d=a-b 
and b-c=a-b will be merged. Final join tree is "a-(bdc)".

With this, ab-d join will be executed prior to ab-c. But if join type of -c and 
-d is different, this is not valid.
