James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-2067: --------------------------------------- Thanks for the review, [~ram_krish]. bq. should not blindly check with SEPERTOR_BYTE right - instead try to decide it based on the order of the current byte[]? Luckily, for arrays we navigate using the offsets in the header, so this part didn't need to change. The separator bytes are purely to make sure variable length arrays sort correctly relative to each other. I'll check in shortly unless you have other feedback? > Sort order incorrect for variable length DESC columns > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-2067 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-2067 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 4.4.0 > Environment: HBase 0.98.6-cdh5.3.0 > jdk1.7.0_67 x64 > CentOS release 6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) > Reporter: Mykola Komarnytskyy > Assignee: James Taylor > Attachments: PHOENIX-2067_array_addendum.patch, > PHOENIX-2067_array_addendum_v2.patch, PHOENIX-2067_v1.patch, > PHOENIX-2067_v2.patch, PHOENIX-2067_v3.patch > > > Steps to reproduce: > 1. Create a table: > CREATE TABLE mytable (id BIGINT not null PRIMARY KEY, timestamp BIGINT, > log_message varchar) IMMUTABLE_ROWS=true, SALT_BUCKETS=16; > 2. Create two indexes: > CREATE INDEX mytable_index_search ON mytable(timestamp,id) INCLUDE > (log_message) SALT_BUCKETS=16; > CREATE INDEX mytable_index_search_desc ON mytable(timestamp DESC,id DESC) > INCLUDE (log_message) SALT_BUCKETS=16; > 3. Upsert values: > UPSERT INTO mytable VALUES(1, 1434983826018, 'message1'); > UPSERT INTO mytable VALUES(2, 1434983826100, 'message2'); > UPSERT INTO mytable VALUES(3, 1434983826101, 'message3'); > UPSERT INTO mytable VALUES(4, 1434983826202, 'message4'); > 4. Sort DESC by timestamp: > select timestamp,id,log_message from mytable ORDER BY timestamp DESC; > Failure: data is sorted incorrectly. In case when we have two longs which > are different only by last two digits (e.g. 1434983826155, 1434983826100) > and one of the long ends with '00' we receive incorrect order. > Sorting result: > 1434983826202 > 1434983826100 > 1434983826101 > 1434983826018 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
