> Hive throws NPE when running mapjoin_filter_on_outerjoin.q using Tez engine. (I used TestMiniLlapCliDriver.)
> The NPE is thrown by CommonJoinOperator.getFilterTag(), which just retreives the last object from the given list.
> To the best of my knowledge, if Hive selects MapJoin to perform Join operation, filterTag should be computed and appended to a row before the row is passed to MapJoinOperator.
> In the case of MapReduce engine, this is done by HashTableSinkOperator.
> However, I cannot find any logic pareparing filterTag for small tables when Hive uses Tez engine.
> I think there are 2 available options:
> 1. Don't use MapJoinOperator if a small table has filter expression.
> 2. Add a new logic that computes and passes filterTag to MapJoinOperator.
> I am working on the second option and ready to discuss about it.
> It would be grateful if you could give any opinion about this issue.
