Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-8089: ---------------------------------------- Seems to be caused by addition of a stage. {noformat} select key, value from (select key, value from src order by value limit 5)t1; select key, value from (select key, value from src order by value limit 5)t1 limit 5; {noformat} doesn't exhibit the issue and two queries have very similar plan; wrapping both with {noformat} select * from (...)t1 {noformat} causes the 2nd query to add another stage with tablescan and limit, and causes the results to differ. > Ordering is lost when limit is put in outer query > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-8089 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8089 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Laljo John Pullokkaran > Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin > > It seems like hive supports order by, limit in sub queries (compiler doesn't > complain). However ordering seems to be lost based on where you place the > limit. I haven't debugged the issue. > ex: > select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 > order by c_int limit 5)t1)t1; > null NULL > null NULL > 1 1 > 1 1 > 1 1 > select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 > order by c_int)t1 limit 5)t1; > 1 1 > 1 1 > 1 1 > null NULL > null NULL > select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 > order by c_int limit 5)t1 limit 5)t1; > 1 1 > 1 1 > 1 1 > null NULL > null NULL -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
