Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-7281:
----------------------------------------
Filing a separate ticket and unlinking it from this one is fine, only that it
will be left to the mercy of someone who will do it : )
Fixing a root cause is always better (in this case deleting error-prone
DummyPartitions) but since immediate bug can be fixed by current patch. +1
> DbTxnManager acquiring wrong level of lock for dynamic partitioning

> Currently DbTxnManager.acquireLocks() locks the DUMMY_PARTITION for dynamic
> partitioning. But this is not adequate. This will not prevent drop
> operations on partitions being written to. The lock should be at the table
