Mihaly Szjatinya 087b715a2b IMPALA-14108: Add support for SHOW FILES IN table PARTITION for Iceberg
tables

This patch implements partition filtering support for the SHOW FILES
statement on Iceberg tables, based on the functionality added in
IMPALA-12243. Prior to this change, the syntax resulted in a
NullPointerException.

Key changes:
- Added ShowFilesStmt.analyzeIceberg() to validate and transform
  partition expressions using IcebergPartitionExpressionRewriter and
  IcebergPartitionPredicateConverter. After that, it collects matching
  file paths using IcebergUtil.planFiles().
- Added FeIcebergTable.Utils.getIcebergTableFilesFromPaths() to
  accept pre-filtered file lists from the analysis phase.
- Enhanced TShowFilesParams thrift struct with optional selected_files
  field to pass pre-filtered file paths from frontend to backend.

Testing:
- Analyzer tests for negative cases: non-existent partitions, invalid
  expressions, non-partition columns, unsupported transforms.
- Analyzer tests for positive cases: all transform types, complex
  expressions.
- Authorization tests for non-filtered and filtered syntaxes.
- E2E tests covering every partition transform type with various
  predicates.
- Schema evolution and rollback scenarios.

The implementation follows AlterTableDropPartition's pattern where the
analysis phase performs validation/metadata retrieval and the execution
phase handles result formatting and display.

Welcome to Impala

Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in open data and table formats.

Impala is a modern, massively-distributed, massively-parallel, C++ query engine that lets you analyze, transform and combine data from a variety of data sources:

More about Impala

The fastest way to try out Impala is a quickstart Docker container. You can try out running queries and processing data sets in Impala on a single machine without installing dependencies. It can automatically load test data sets into Apache Kudu and Apache Parquet formats and you can start playing around with Apache Impala SQL within minutes.

To learn more about Impala as a user or administrator, or to try Impala, please visit the Impala homepage. Detailed documentation for administrators and users is available at Apache Impala documentation.

If you are interested in contributing to Impala as a developer, or learning more about Impala's internals and architecture, visit the Impala wiki.

Supported Platforms

Impala only supports Linux at the moment. Impala supports x86_64 and has experimental support for arm64 (as of Impala 4.0). Impala Requirements contains more detailed information on the minimum CPU requirements.

Supported OS Distributions

Impala runs on Linux systems only. The supported distros are

  • Ubuntu 16.04/18.04
  • CentOS/RHEL 7/8

Other systems, e.g. SLES12, may also be supported but are not tested by the community.

Export Control Notice

This distribution uses cryptographic software and may be subject to export controls. Please refer to EXPORT_CONTROL.md for more information.
