Hello Matthew Jacobs,
I'd like you to reexamine a change. Please visit
http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/7829
to look at the new patch set (#5).
Change subject: IMPALA-5211: Simplifying ifnull conditional.
......................................................................
IMPALA-5211: Simplifying ifnull conditional.
Re-writes ifnull(x, y) into if(x DISTINCT FROM y, x, NULL),
and simplifies the latter if x.equals(y).
We use "DISTINCT FROM" rather than "=" to handle gracefully
that, if x and y are null, we still want NULL to get returned.
Testing:
* Added new tests to ExprRewriteRulesTests for nullif and the if(x
distinct from y, ...) simplification.
* Adds an nvl2() test, incidentally.
* Confirmed (using EclEmma, which uses jococo engine) that coverage is good.
Questions:
* I think this means we can remove the NullIfExpr and friends
from the backend, since the FE has moved them away. I've not
done that yet.
* The re-write in FunctionCallExpr creates a NullLiteral of type
NULL. The types of the children aren't available yet. I haven't
yet figured out if that's the right thing to do.
