Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1609:
----------------------------------

Once this is in, it would be useful to add a API like get_partitions_ps in HIVE 
- I mean, get all sub-partitions.

For example, if the table is partitioned on (ds, hr): 
something like

show partitions (ds='2010-09-20', hr) should return all sub-partitions.

> Support partition filtering in metastore

> The metastore needs to have support for returning a list of partitions based 
> on user specified filter conditions. This will be useful for tools which need 
> to do partition pruning. Howl is one such use case. The way partition pruning 
> is done during hive query execution need not be changed.
