Eugene Koifman updated HIVE-21114: ---------------------------------- Description: With HIVE-21036 we have a way to indicate that a txn is read only. We should (at least in auto-commit mode) determine if the single stmt is a read and mark the txn accordingly. Then we can optimize {{TxnHandler.commitTxn()}} so that it doesn't do any checks in write_set etc. {{TxnHandler.commitTxn()}} already starts with {{lockTransactionRecord(stmt, txnid, TXN_OPEN)}} so it can read the txn type in the same SQL stmt. HiveOperation only has QUERY, which includes Insert and Select, so this requires figuring out how to determine if a query is a SELECT. By the time {{Driver.openTransaction();}} is called, we have already parsed the query so there should be a way to know if the statement only reads. For multi-stmt txns (once these are supported) we should allow user to indicate that a txn is read-only and then not allow any statements that can make modifications in this txn. This should be a different jira. cc [~ikryvenko] was: With HIVE-21036 we have a way to indicate that a txn is read only.
