[jira] [Created] (SPARK-28201) Revisit MakeDecimal behavior on overflow

Marco Gaido created SPARK-28201:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Revisit MakeDecimal behavior on overflow
                 Key: SPARK-28201
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-28201
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Marco Gaido


As pointed out in https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/20350#issuecomment-505997469, in special cases of decimal aggregation we are using the `MakeDecimal` operator.

This operator has a not well defined behavior in case of overflow, namely what it does currently is:

 - if codegen is enabled it returns null;
 -  in interpreted mode it throws an `IllegalArgumentException`.

So we should make his behavior uniform with other similar cases and in particular we should honor the value of the conf introduced in SPARK-23179 and behave accordingly, ie.:

 - returning null if the flag is true;
 - throw an `ArithmeticException` if the flag is false.
