> RecordBinaryComparatorSuite test failures on big-endian systems
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-32485
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32485
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Tests
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Michael Munday
> Assignee: Michael Munday
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: endianness
> Fix For: 3.1.0

> The fix for SPARK-29918 broke two tests on big-endian systems:
> * testBinaryComparatorWhenSubtractionIsDivisibleByMaxIntValue
> * testBinaryComparatorWhenSubtractionCanOverflowLongValue
> These tests date from a time where subtraction was being used to do
> multi-byte comparisons. They try to trigger old bugs by feeding specific
> values into the comparison. However the fix for SPARK-29918 modified the
> order in which bytes are compared when comparing 8 bytes at a time on
> little-endian systems (to match the normal byte-by-byte comparison). This fix
> did not affect big-endian systems. However the expected output of the tests
> was modified for all systems regardless of endianness. So the tests broke on
> big-endian systems.
> It is also not clear that the values compared in the tests match the original
> intent of the tests now that the bytes in those values are compared in order
> (equivalent to the bytes in the values being reversed).
