Sankar Hariappan updated HIVE-20682:
------------------------------------
    Status: Patch Available  (was: Open)

03.patch simplified the fix with a allowClose flag in Hive which is set to 
false by sessionHive as it should be closed only when session is closed or 
released. However, execution thread locally allocated Hive object will be 
closed when the thread exit.

Thanks [~maheshk114] for the suggestion!

Can you please take a look at this patch?

> Async query execution can potentially fail if shared sessionHive is closed by 
> master thread.

> *Problem description:*
> The master thread initializes the *sessionHive* object in *HiveSessionImpl* 
> class when we open a new session for a client connection and by default all 
> queries from this connection shares the same sessionHive object. 
> If the master thread executes a *synchronous* query, it closes the 
> sessionHive object (referred via thread local hiveDb) if  
> {{Hive.isCompatible}} returns false and sets new Hive object in thread local 
> HiveDb but doesn't change the sessionHive object in the session. Whereas, 
> *asynchronous* query execution via async threads never closes the sessionHive 
> object and it just creates a new one if needed and sets it as their thread 
> local hiveDb.
> So, the problem can happen in the case where an *asynchronous* query is being 
> executed by async threads refers to sessionHive object and the master thread 
> receives a *synchronous* query that closes the same sessionHive object. 
> Also, each query execution overwrites the thread local hiveDb object to 
> sessionHive object which potentially leaks a metastore connection if the 
> previous synchronous query execution re-created the Hive object.
> *Possible Fix:*
> The *sessionHive* object could be shared my multiple threads and so it 
> shouldn't be allowed to be closed by any query execution threads when they 
> re-create the Hive object due to changes in Hive configurations. But the Hive 
> objects created by query execution threads should be closed when the thread 
> exits.
> So, it is proposed to have an *isAllowClose* flag (default: *true*) in Hive 
> object which should be set to *false* for *sessionHive* and would be 
> forcefully closed when the session is closed or released.
