---------------------------------------
Summary: LLAP IO may incorrectly release a refcount in some cases
Key: HIVE-17411
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17411
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin
Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin
Not sure why this doesn't happen much more often, actually.
In a large stream whose buffers are not reused (e.g. a dictionary, that is
locked once for all RGs), separated into many buffers (e.g. due to a small ORC
compression buffer size), it may happen that some, but not all, buffers are
evicted from cache.
If CacheBuffer follows BufferChunk in the buffer list, the latter will be
converted to ProcCacheChunk; it is possible for early refcount release logic
from the former to release the refcount (for a dictionary it would always be
released cause by definition there's no reuse), and then backtrack to the
latter, and try to decref an uninitialized MemoryBuffer in ProcCacheChunk
because ProcCacheChunk looks like a CacheChunk. PCC initial refcounts are
released separately after the data is uncompressed.
