Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-6349:
----------------------------------------------
The {{pyarrow.serialize()}} function is deprecated (and thus not worth
enhancing it), but also the creation of a Tensor object fails with the same
error message (so renamed the issue to focus on this):
{code}
In [47]: pa.Tensor.from_numpy(b)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

> [Python] Conversion of numpy array to pyarrow.Tensor: Negative ndarray

> Key: ARROW-6349
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6349
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Environment: Ubuntu 16.04, python 3.6.6, numpy 1.14.6, pyarrow 0.11.1
> Reporter: YUTING ZHANG
> Priority: Major
>
> When indexing a np.ndarray with negative stride, arrow cannot serialize it.
> However, this could be a common use case for reversing along an axis.
>
> Code:
> {code:java}
> import pyarrow
> import numpy as np
> a=np.zeros([500,600,3])
> b=a[:,:,::-1]
> pyarrow.serialize(b)
> {code}
>
> Error:
> {code:java}
> ArrowInvalid Traceback (most recent call last)
