> Currently, in HdfsTable 
> https://github.com/apache/impala/blob/master/fe/src/main/java/org/apache/impala/catalog/HdfsTable.java#L1017
>  we reload the ValidWriteIdList every time. However in case of incremental 
> refresh, it is possible that the file-metadata is not loaded at all or only 
> loaded for certain partitions. This would mean that the cached 
> ValidWriteIdList of the table is out-of-sync with the actual file-metadata 
> which is cached in catalog.
> This is currently not a problem since we on rely on the ValidWriteIdList 
> during the loading of the file-metadata. However, for a consistent reads of 
> the transactional tables, we would need to make sure that this 
> ValidWriteIdList is guaranteed to represent the cached files.
