ImpaladCatalog#updateCatalog() doesn't trigger a full topic update request when detecting catalogServiceId changes. It just updates the local catalogServiceId and throws an exception to abort applying the DDL/DML results. This causes a problem when catalogd is restarted and the DDL/DML is executed on the restarted instance. In this case, only the local catalogServiceId is updated to the latest. The local catalog remains stale. Then when dealing with the following updates from statestore, the catalogServiceId always matches, so updates will be applied without exceptions. However, the catalog objects usually won't be updated since they have higher versions (from the old catalogd instance) than those in the update. This brings the local catalog out of sync until the catalog version of the new catalogd grows larger enough. Note that in dealing with the catalog updates from statestore, if the catalogServiceId unmatches, impalad will request a full topic update. See more in ImpalaServer::CatalogUpdateCallback(). This patch fixes this issue by checking the catalogServiceId before invoking UpdateCatalogCache() of FE. If catalogServiceId doesn't match the one in the DDL/DML result, wait until it changes. The following update from statestore will change it and unblocks the DDL/DML thread. Testing add several tests in tests/custom_cluster/test_restart_services.py Change-Id: I9fe25f5a2a42fb432e306ef08ae35750c8f3c50c Reviewed-on: http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/17645 Reviewed-by: Impala Public Jenkins <impala-public-jenkins@cloudera.com> Tested-by: Impala Public Jenkins <impala-public-jenkins@cloudera.com>
Welcome to Impala
Lightning-fast, distributed SQL queries for petabytes of data stored in Apache Hadoop clusters.
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:
- Best of breed performance and scalability.
- Support for data stored in HDFS, Apache HBase and Amazon S3.
- Wide analytic SQL support, including window functions and subqueries.
- On-the-fly code generation using LLVM to generate CPU-efficient code tailored specifically to each individual query.
- Support for the most commonly-used Hadoop file formats, including the Apache Parquet project.
- Apache-licensed, 100% open source.

Supported Platforms
Impala only supports Linux at the moment.
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 bin/bootstrap_build.sh.
Detailed Build Notes
Impala can be built with pre-built components or components downloaded from S3. The components needed to build Impala are Apache Hadoop, Hive, HBase, and Sentry. If you need to manually override the locations or versions of these components, you can do so through the environment variables and scripts listed below.
Scripts and directories
| Location | Purpose |
|---|---|
| bin/impala-config.sh | This script must be sourced to setup all environment variables properly to allow other scripts to work |
| bin/impala-config-local.sh | A script can be created in this location to set local overrides for any environment variables |
| bin/impala-config-branch.sh | A version of the above that can be checked into a branch for convenience. |
| bin/bootstrap_build.sh | A helper script to bootstrap some of the build requirements. |
| bin/bootstrap_development.sh | A helper script to bootstrap a developer environment. Please read it before using. |
| be/build/ | Impala build output goes here. |
| be/generated-sources/ | Thrift and other generated source will be found here. |
