Aihua Xu commented on HIVE-12820:
---------------------------------

Seems the patch doesn't solve incompatibility issue, e.g., for the case of 
"using \r as one separator". Before HIVE-11785, it would escape \r in text into 
\\\r (\ and carriage return); with HIVE-11785 it will be "\r" (character \ and 
r).  If a MR job is involved,  the first scenario would return incorrect result 
and the second will work. 

I'm wondering if we need to make such case compatible as well.

> The change in HIVE-11785 doesn't allow \r or \n to be used as separator or 
> escape character which may break some existing tables which uses \r as 
> separator or escape character e.g..
> This case actually can be supported regardless of SERIALIZATION_ESCAPE_CRLF 
> set or not.
