Andrew Or commented on SPARK-15867:
-----------------------------------
I think we should fix it, though looks like it's been an issue for a while. I
don't think it was ever documented so it's OK to change the behavior.
> TABLESAMPLE BUCKET semantics don't match Hive's
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-15867
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-15867
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0, 2.0.0
> Reporter: Andrew Or
>
> {code}
> SELECT * FROM boxes TABLESAMPLE (BUCKET 3 OUT OF 16)
> {code}
> In Hive, this would select the 3rd bucket out of every 16 buckets there are
> in the table. E.g. if the table was clustered by 32 buckets then this would
> sample the 3rd and the 19th bucket. (See
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Sampling)
> In Spark, however, we simply sample 3/16 of the number of input rows.
> Either we don't support it in Spark or do it in a way that's consistent with
> Hive.
