(Updated July 24, 2013, 8:15 p.m.) Review request for hive and Ashutosh Chauhan. Changes ------- As suggested, new patch discards default partition regardless of the mode. Repository: hive-git Description ------- With Dynamic partitioning, Hive would scan default partitions in some cases even if query excludes it. As part of partition pruning, predicate is narrowed down to those pieces that involve partition columns only. This predicate is then evaluated with partition values to determine, if scan should include those partitions. But in some cases (like when comparing "_HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION_" to numeric data types) expression evaluation would fail and would return NULL instead of true/false. In such cases the partition is added to unknown partitions which is then subsequently scanned. This fix avoids scanning default partition if all of the following is true: a) Hive dynamic partition mode is strict (hive.exec.dynamic.partition.mode=strict). b) partition pruning expression failed to evaluate for a given partition. c) at the least one of the columns in the partition is default partition.
