linliu-code opened a new pull request, #14105:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/14105

   ### Describe the issue this Pull Request addresses
   
   Column `valueType` is added to ColumnStats record schema. This causes 
backward compatibility issue since old ColumnStats records do not have this 
column in their schema. After upgrade, when MDT tries to access this column, 
these old records would throw exception saying 
`org.apache.avro.AvroRuntimeException: Not a valid schema field: valueType`.
   
   ### Summary and Changelog
   
   The solution is to check if `valueType` column exists in current schema. If 
not, we return `V1EmptyMetadata` object.
   
   ### Impact
   
   Fix one compatibility issue after upgrade to version 9.
   
   ### Risk Level
   
   Low.
   
   ### Documentation Update
   
   <!-- Describe any necessary documentation update if there is any new 
feature, config, or user-facing change. If not, put "none".
   
   - The config description must be updated if new configs are added or the 
default value of the configs are changed.
   - Any new feature or user-facing change requires updating the Hudi website. 
Please follow the 
     [instruction](https://hudi.apache.org/contribute/developer-setup#website)
