Since the toolchain was bumped to pick up Kudu's array column
feature (KUDU-1261), Impala's TSAN builds on the master branch
consistently break during dataload with a data race detected by TSAN.

The source of data race lies within libkudu_client.so and only trigger
if Impala build machine has both ipv4 and ipv6 associated with
localhost. Until the exact root cause is found and fixed, this patch
workaround the TSAN issue by fixing KUDU_MASTER_HOSTS env var to
127.0.0.1.

Testing:
Run TSAN build and confirm no data race error is emmitted.

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.
