[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-27619) MapType should be prohibited in
hash expressions
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27619?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17020854#comment-17020854 ]
Dongjoon Hyun commented on SPARK-27619:
---------------------------------------
I just checked the result on 3.0.0-preview2. This issue is still valid.
{code}
scala> :paste
// Entering paste mode (ctrl-D to finish)
val a = spark.createDataset(Map(1->1, 2->2) :: Nil)
val b = spark.createDataset(Map(2->2, 1->1) :: Nil)
// Demonstration of how Scala Map equality is unaffected by insertion order:
assert(Map(1->1, 2->2).hashCode() == Map(2->2, 1->1).hashCode())
assert(Map(1->1, 2->2) == Map(2->2, 1->1))
assert(a.first() == b.first())
// In contrast, this will print two different hashcodes:
println(Seq(a, b).map(_.selectExpr("hash(*)").first()))
// Exiting paste mode, now interpreting.

> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-27619
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27619
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.2, 2.4.3, 2.4.4, 3.0.0
> Reporter: Josh Rosen
> Priority: Major
> Labels: correctness
>
> Spark currently allows MapType expressions to be used as input to hash expressions, but I think that this should be prohibited because Spark SQL does not support map equality.
> Currently, Spark SQL's map hashcodes are sensitive to the insertion order of map elements:
> {code:java}
> val a = spark.createDataset(Map(1->1, 2->2) :: Nil)
> val b = spark.createDataset(Map(2->2, 1->1) :: Nil)
> // Demonstration of how Scala Map equality is unaffected by insertion order:
> assert(Map(1->1, 2->2).hashCode() == Map(2->2, 1->1).hashCode())
> assert(Map(1->1, 2->2) == Map(2->2, 1->1))
> assert(a.first() == b.first())
> // In contrast, this will print two different hashcodes:
> println(Seq(a, b).map(_.selectExpr("hash(*)").first())){code}
> This behavior might be surprising to Scala developers.
> I think there's precedence for banning the use of MapType here because we already prohibit MapType in aggregation / joins / equality comparisons (SPARK-9415) and set operations (SPARK-19893).
> If we decide that we want this to be an error then it might also be a good idea to add a {{spark.sql.legacy}} flag as an escape-hatch to re-enable the old and buggy behavior (in case applications were relying on it in cases where it just so happens to be safe-by-accident (e.g. maps which only have one entry)).
> Alternatively, we could support hashing here if we implemented support for comparable map types (SPARK-18134).
