bersprockets opened a new pull request, #36903:
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/36903

   ### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
   
   Change `Inline.eval` to return a row of null values rather than a null row 
in the case of a null input struct.
   
   ### Why are the changes needed?
   
   Consider the following query:
   ```
   set spark.sql.codegen.wholeStage=false;
   select inline(array(named_struct('a', 1, 'b', 2), null));
   ```
   This query fails with a `NullPointerException`:
   ```
   22/06/16 15:10:06 ERROR Executor: Exception in task 0.0 in stage 0.0 (TID 0)
   java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GeneratedClass$SpecificUnsafeProjection.apply(Unknown
 Source)
        at 
org.apache.spark.sql.execution.GenerateExec.$anonfun$doExecute$11(GenerateExec.scala:122)
   ```
   (In Spark 3.1.3, you don't need to set `spark.sql.codegen.wholeStage` to 
false to reproduce the error, since Spark 3.1.3 has no codegen path for 
`Inline`).
   
   This query fails regardless of the setting of `spark.sql.codegen.wholeStage`:
   ```
   val dfWide = (Seq((1))
     .toDF("col0")
     .selectExpr(Seq.tabulate(99)(x => s"$x as col${x + 1}"): _*))
   
   val df = (dfWide
     .selectExpr("*", "array(named_struct('a', 1, 'b', 2), null) as 
struct_array"))
   
   df.selectExpr("*", "inline(struct_array)").collect
   ```
   It fails with
   ```
   22/06/16 15:18:55 ERROR Executor: Exception in task 0.0 in stage 0.0 (TID 
0)/ 1]
   java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.JoinedRow.isNullAt(JoinedRow.scala:80)
        at 
org.apache.spark.sql.catalyst.expressions.GeneratedClass$SpecificUnsafeProjection.writeFields_0_8$(Unknown
 Source)
   ```
   When `Inline.eval` returns a null row in the collection, GenerateExec gets a 
NullPointerException either when joining the null row with required child 
output, or projecting the null row.
   
   This PR avoids producing the null row and produces a row of null values 
instead:
   ```
   spark-sql> set spark.sql.codegen.wholeStage=false;
   spark.sql.codegen.wholeStage false
   Time taken: 3.095 seconds, Fetched 1 row(s)
   spark-sql> select inline(array(named_struct('a', 1, 'b', 2), null));
   1    2
   NULL NULL
   Time taken: 1.214 seconds, Fetched 2 row(s)
   spark-sql>
   ```
   
   ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
   
   No.
   
   ### How was this patch tested?
   
   New unit test.
