[jira] [Updated] (ARROW-16022) floor_temporal / ceil_temporal throws exception for existing timestamps if ambiguous/existing

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16022?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Kevin Crouse updated ARROW-16022:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
Running pyarrow.compute.floor_temporal for timestamps that exist will throw exceptions if the times are ambiguous during the daylight savings time transitions. 

As the *_temporal functions do not fundamentally change the times, it does not make sense that they would fail due to a timezone issue. If they must fail, it should be when the pyarrow.Timestamp is created.

 

 
{code:java}
import pyarrow
import pyarrow.compute as pc
import datetime

t = pyarrow.timestamp('s', tz='America/New_York')

dt = datetime.datetime(2013, 11, 3, 1, 3, 14, tzinfo = pytz.timezone('America/New_York'))

# if a timestamp must be invalid, this could fail
za = pyarrow.array([dt], t) 

# raises an exception, even though this is conceptually an identity function
pc.floor_temporal(za, unit = 'second') {code}
