[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-5891) Alias conflict when merging multiple mapjoin tasks into their common child mapred task

["Sun Rui (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Sun Rui commented on HIVE-5891:
-------------------------------

[~yhuai] I think we can leave "$INTNAME" as is for this issue. Do you have any further comments? if no, I can prepare a new patch for review.

> CommonJoinTaskDispatcher merges the two MapJoin tasks into their common child: Union task. The two MapJoin tasks have the same alias name for their big tables: $INTNAME, which is the name of the temporary table of a join stream. The aliasToWork map uses alias as key, so eventually only the MapJoin operator tree of one MapJoin task is saved into the aliasToWork map of the Union task, while the MapJoin operator tree of another MapJoin task is lost. As a result, Union operator won't be initialized because not all of its parents gets intialized (The Union operator itself indicates it has two parents, but actually it has only 1 parent because another parent is lost).
> This issue does not exist in HIVE 0.11 and thus is a regression bug in HIVE 0.12.
> The propsed solution is to use the query ID as prefix for the join stream name to avoid conflict and add sanity check code in CommonJoinTaskDispatcher that merge of a MapJoin task into its child MapRed task is skipped if there is any alias conflict. Please review the patch. I am not sure if the patch properly handles the case of DemuxOperator.
> BTW, anyone knows the origin of "$INTNAME"? it is so confusing, maybe we can replace it with a meaningful name.
