> When {{spark.sql.hive.convertMetastoreOrc}} is enabled, we will convert a ORC
> table represented by a MetastoreRelation to HadoopFsRelation that uses
> Spark's OrcFileFormat internally. This conversion aims to make table scanning
> have a better performance since at runtime, the code path to scan
> HadoopFsRelation's performance is better. However, OrcFileFormat's
> implementation is based on the assumption that ORC files store their schema
> with correct column names. However, before Hive 2.0, an ORC table created by
> Hive does not store column name correctly in the ORC files (HIVE-4243). So,
> for this kind of ORC datasets, we cannot really convert the code path.
> Right now, if ORC tables are created by Hive 1.x or 0.x, enabling
> {{spark.sql.hive.convertMetastoreOrc}} will introduce a runtime exception for
> non-partitioned ORC tables and drop the metastore schema for partitioned ORC
> tables.
