Abhishek Somani commented on HIVE-21165:
----------------------------------------
Got it. I was confused between hive.acid.key.index and hive.acid.stats.
Is it perhaps then that hive.acid.stats is not required anymore as it just
counts types of events?
> ACID: pass query hint to the writers to write hive.acid.key.index

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug

> Affects Versions: 3.1.1
> Reporter: Vaibhav Gumashta
> Assignee: Vaibhav Gumashta
> Priority: Major
>
> For the query based compactor from HIVE-20699, the compaction runs as a sql
> query. However, this mechanism skips over writing hive.acid.key.index for
> each stripe, which is used to skip over stripes that are not supposed to be
> read. We need a way to pass a query hint to the writer so that it can write
> this index data, when invoked from a sql query.
