Zoltán Borók-Nagy commented on IMPALA-12894:
--------------------------------------------

Even if we fix this particular issue, we should probably still want to 
introduce a flag to be able to turn off the optimization, just in case.

> Issue was introduced by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11802 
> that implemented an optimized way to get results for count(*). However, if 
> the table was compacted by Spark this optimization can give incorrect results.
> The reason is that Spark can[ skip dropping delete 
> files|https://iceberg.apache.org/docs/latest/spark-procedures/#rewrite_position_delete_files]
>  that are pointing to compacted data files, as a result there might be delete 
> files after compaction that are no longer applied to any data files.
> Repro:
> With Impala
> {code:java}
> create table default.iceberg_testing (id int, j bigint) STORED AS ICEBERG
> TBLPROPERTIES('iceberg.catalog'='hadoop.catalog',
>               'iceberg.catalog_location'='/tmp/spark_iceberg_catalog/',
>               'iceberg.table_identifier'='iceberg_testing',
>               'format-version'='2');
> insert into iceberg_testing values
>     (1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 9), (4, 16), (5, 25);
> update iceberg_testing set j = -100 where id = 4;
> delete from iceberg_testing where id = 4;{code}
> Count * returns 4 at this point.
> Run compaction in Spark:
> {code:java}
> spark.sql(s"CALL local.system.rewrite_data_files(table => 
> 'default.iceberg_testing', options => map('min-input-files','2') )").show() 
> {code}
> Now count * in Impala returns 8 (might require an IM if in HadoopCatalog). 
> Hive returns correct results. Also a SELECT * returns correct results.
