> HIVE-19369 proposes adding a EXCL_WRITE lock which does not wait for any
> SHARED_READ locks for read operations - in the presence of that lock, the
> insert overwrite no longer takes an exclusive lock.
> The only exclusive operation will be a schema change or drop table, which
> should take an exclusive lock on the entire table directly.
> {code}
> explain locks select * from tpcds_bin_partitioned_orc_1000.store_sales where
> ss_sold_date_sk=2452626
> +----------------------------------------------------+
> | Explain |
> +----------------------------------------------------+
> | LOCK INFORMATION: |
> | tpcds_bin_partitioned_orc_1000.store_sales -> SHARED_READ |
> | tpcds_bin_partitioned_orc_1000.store_sales.ss_sold_date_sk=2452626 ->
> SHARED_READ |
> +----------------------------------------------------+
> {code}
> So the per-partition SHARED_READ locks are no longer necessary, if the lock
> builder already includes the table-wide SHARED_READ locks.
> The removal of entire partitions is the only part which needs to be taken
> care of within this semantics as row-removal instead of directory removal
> (i.e "drop partition" -> "truncate partition" and have the truncation trigger
> a whole directory cleaner, so that the partition disappears when there are 0
> rows left).
