Csaba Ringhofer e5b785cd31 IMPALA-13759: Fix Hive ACID INSERT OVERWRITE base detection
Base directory created by INSERT OVERWRITE / TRUNCATE should be
treated differently than bases created by compaction because
IOW/TRUNCATE bases must be accepted even if there is an earlier
open writeId. This scenario can easily occur if there is
a pending write to a single partition, as this doesn't block
an IOW/TRUNCATE to another partition, while the global
minOpenWrite affects whether the base is accepted.

This change updates Impala logic to consider these bases
valid similarly to Hive.

Note that differentiating IOW/TRUNCATE from compaction is
different than in Hive, as metadata files are not considered
in Impala (IMPALA-13769). This can only cause problems when
interacting with earlier Hive versions that did not use
visibilityTxnId in the base path. I don't consider this
to be a significant regression that should block the current
critical fix.

Testing:
- added regression EE/FE tests

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.
