Tathagata Das resolved SPARK-17372. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 2.1.0 2.0.1 Issue resolved by pull request 14987 [https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14987] > Running a file stream on a directory with partitioned subdirs throw > NotSerializableException/StackOverflowError > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-17372 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17372 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: SQL, Streaming > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Tathagata Das > Assignee: Tathagata Das > Fix For: 2.0.1, 2.1.0 > > > When we create a filestream on a directory that has partitioned subdirs (i.e. > dir/x=y/), then ListingFileCatalog.allFiles returns the files in the dir as > Seq[String] which internally is a Stream[String]. This is because of this > [line|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/datasources/PartitioningAwareFileCatalog.scala#L93], > where a LinkedHashSet.values.toSeq returns Stream. Then when the > [FileStreamSource|https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/streaming/FileStreamSource.scala#L79] > filters this Stream[String] to remove the seen files, it creates a new > Stream[String], which has a filter function that has a $outer reference to > the FileStreamSource (in Scala 2.10). Trying to serialize this Stream[String] > causes NotSerializableException. This will happened even if there is just one > file in the dir. > Its important to note that this behavior is different in Scala 2.11. There is > no $outer reference to FileStreamSource, so it does not throw > NotSerializableException. However, with a large sequence of files (tested > with 10000 files), it throws StackOverflowError. This is because how Stream > class is implemented. Its basically like a linked list, and attempting to > serialize a long Stream requires *recursively* going through linked list, > thus resulting in StackOverflowError. > In short, across both Scala 2.10 and 2.11, serialization fails when both the > following conditions are true. > - file stream defined on a partitioned directory > - directory has 10k+ files > The right solution is to convert the seq to an array before writing to the > log. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
