Daniel Becker d4eb03b38e IMPALA-13770: Updating Iceberg tables with UDFs crashes Impala
When using a native UDF in the target value of an UPDATE statement or in
a filter predicate or target value of a MERGE statement, Impala crashes
with the following DCHECK:

  be/src/exprs/expr.cc:47 47 DCHECK(cache_entry_ == nullptr);

This DCHECK is in the destructor of Expr, and it fires because Close()
has not been called for the expression. In the UPDATE case this is
caused by MultiTableSinkConfig: it creates child DataSinkConfig objects
but does not call Close() on them, and consequently these child sink
configs do not call Close() on their output expressions.
In the MERGE case it is because various expressions are not closed in
IcebergMergeCase and IcebergMergeNode.

This patch fixes the issue by overriding Close() in MultiTableSinkConfig,
calling Close() on the child sinks as well as closing the expressions in
IcebergMergeCase and IcebergMergeNode.

Testing:
 - Added EE regression tests for the UPDATE and MERGE cases in
   iceberg-update-basic.test and iceberg-merge.test

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.

Build Instructions

See Impala's developer documentation to get started.
