It returns numeric_limits<float>::infinity(). I've added a test to verify this 
works.


Line 2797:   // Parsing inf values is case-insensitive.

Done.

> I don't think we need 3 upper/lower case permutations, 1 should be sufficie
Before this patch-set, parsing inf and NaN values in a case-insensitive manner 
was done by comparing characters one-by-one (instead of just calling

PS1, Line 377:  Hive writes inf as Infinity, at least for text. We'll be a 
little loose
             :     // here and interpret any column with "inf" as a prefix as 
infinity rather than
             :     // checking every remaining byte.

Yes, we should definitely do that


PS1, Line 422:       } else if (s[i] == '.') {
             :         decimal = true;

I've created a new JIRA ticket (IMPALA-3868) and fixed it in the next patch-set.
