> {noformat}
> 0: jdbc:drill:drillbit=10.10.10.191> describe sys.boot;
> +-------------------+--------------------+--------------+
> | COLUMN_NAME | DATA_TYPE | IS_NULLABLE |

> | kind | CHARACTER VARYING | NO |
> | accessibleScopes | CHARACTER VARYING | NO |
> | optionScope | CHARACTER VARYING | NO |
> | status | CHARACTER VARYING | NO |

> | string_val | CHARACTER VARYING | NO |
> | bool_val | BOOLEAN | NO |
> | float_val | DOUBLE | NO |
> +-------------------+--------------------+--------------+{noformat}

> {noformat}
> +---------------------------------------------------+----------+------------------+-------------+--------+---------+------------+----------+-----------+
> | name | kind |
> accessibleScopes | optionScope | status | num_val | string_val | bool_val |
> float_val |
> +---------------------------------------------------+----------+------------------+-------------+--------+---------+------------+----------+-----------+
> drill.exec.options.exec.udf.enable_dynamic_support | BOOLEAN | BOOT | BOOT |
> BOOT | null | null | true | null |{noformat}
>
> Because of the not-null metadata, the predicates on these tables such as
> `WHERE <column> IS NULL` evaluate to FALSE which is incorrect.
