> But when we go to deserialize the map after the shuffle we get a different result out with the entry for -0.0 gone. That is because the deserialize code uses update that will overwrite the count if the keys are the same. But -0.0 and 0.0 are not the same. Unless they happen to hash to the same position when they are being added in. In that case they end up being equal to each other and the count for 0.0 is replaced with the count for -0.0 and we lose one row in the data.
>  
> Because the keys are stored in OpenHashSet that is where the bug actually is. [https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/7e82e1bc43e0297c3036d802b3a151d2b93db2f6/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/util/collection/OpenHashSet.scala#L139-L159]
>  
> I see a few ways to fix this.
>  # Update OpenHashSet/OpenHashMap to do the right thing for floats and doubles around -0.0 and 0.0
>  # normalize nans and zeros before doing percentiles
>  # reinterpret the bits for float/double as an int/long before putting them into the map and do the reverse when we pull them out.  That would also have the advantage of making NaN == NaN which would reduce the size of the map in those cases for percentile.
>  # Update the deserialize code for percentile to not call update, but instead to call {{counts.changeValue(key, count, _ + count)}}
> I am not sure if something similar can happen in other places, but I know for hash aggregate/etc we normalize the floating point values because of things like this.
