             Summary: Remove compatibleWith, meetsRequirements, and 
needsAnySort checks from Exchange
                 Key: SPARK-9489
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9489
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Josh Rosen
            Assignee: Josh Rosen


While reviewing [~yhuai]'s patch for SPARK-2205, I noticed that Exchange's 
{{compatible}} check may be incorrectly returning {{false}} in many cases.  As 
far as I know, this is not actually a problem because the {{compatible}}, 
{{meetsRequirements}}, and {{needsAnySort}} checks are serving only as 
short-circuit performance optimizations that are not necessary for correctness.

In order to reduce code complexity, I think that we should remove these checks 
and unconditionally rewrite the operator's children.  This should be safe 
because we rewrite the tree in a single bottom-up pass.
