             Summary: remove unneed sort under Aggregate
                 Key: SPARK-27290
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27290
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
            Reporter: Xiaoju Wu


I saw some tickets to remove unneeded sort in plan while I think there's 
another case in which sort is redundant:

Sort just under an non-orderPreserving node is redundant, for example:

select count(*) from (select a1 from A order by a2);
+- Aggregate
  +- Sort
     +- FileScan parquet

But one of the existing test cases is conflict with this example:

test("sort should not be removed when there is a node which doesn't guarantee 
any order")

{   val orderedPlan = testRelation.select('a, 'b).orderBy('a.asc)   val 
groupedAndResorted = orderedPlan.groupBy('a)(sum('a)).orderBy('a.asc)   val 
optimized = Optimize.execute(groupedAndResorted.analyze)   val correctAnswer = 
groupedAndResorted.analyze   comparePlans(optimized, correctAnswer) }

Why is it designed like this? In my opinion, since Aggregate won't pass up the 
ordering, the below Sort is useless.
