> Parquet supports some unsigned datatypes.  Here is the definition related in parquet.thrift
> {code:java}
> /**
>  * Common types used by frameworks(e.g. hive, pig) using parquet.  This helps map
>  * between types in those frameworks to the base types in parquet.  This is only
>  * metadata and not needed to read or write the data.
>  */
>   /**
>    * An unsigned integer value.
>    *
>    * The number describes the maximum number of meaningful data bits in
>    * the stored value. 8, 16 and 32 bit values are stored using the
>    * INT32 physical type.  64 bit values are stored using the INT64
>    * physical type.

> Spark does not support unsigned datatypes. In SPARK-10113, we emit an exception with a clear message for them. 
> UInt8-[0:255]
> UInt16-[0:65535]
> UInt32-[0:4294967295]
> UInt64-[0:18446744073709551615]
> Unsigned types - may be used to produce smaller in-memory representations of the data. If the stored value is larger than the maximum allowed by int32 or int64, then the behavior is undefined.
> In this ticket, we try to read them as a higher precision signed type
