> {{TruncateStatement.validate}} calls {{Schema.instance.validateTable}}, so an 
> unknown table is rejected before execution. A {{DROP TABLE}} that commits 
> between {{validate}} and {{execute}} leaves no metadata, and both execution 
> paths read {{isView()}} on the result of {{Schema.instance.getTableMetadata}} 
> with no null test:
> {code:java}
> TableMetadata metaData = Schema.instance.getTableMetadata(keyspace(), name());
> if (metaData.isView())
>     throw new InvalidRequestException("Cannot TRUNCATE materialized view 
> directly; ...");
> {code}
> {{execute}} then answers a {{NullPointerException}} to the client, and 
> {{executeLocally}} wraps one in a {{TruncateException}}, which reads as a 
> truncation failure rather than as a table that is gone. The severity is Low 
> because the window is the schema propagation of a concurrent drop.
> The patch tests the metadata for null and reports the unknown keyspace and 
> table, which is the message the same race already produces for other 
> statements.
> Patch: 
> [mck/upstream/truncate-unknown-table/5.0|https://github.com/thelastpickle/cassandra/tree/mck/upstream/truncate-unknown-table/5.0]
> Provenance: 
> [5f1d03c5ed|https://github.com/datastax/cassandra/commit/5f1d03c5edf26af6078ce70de456fadc87d46fa5]
>  by dan jatnieks. That commit adds the same two null tests; the rest of it 
> moves {{doTruncateBlocking}} so a fork implementation can override the call, 
> which upstream has no need of, so this patch takes the null tests alone and 
> adds the regression test the commit lacks.
