Github user gatorsmile commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14712
Found another related JIRA:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12730. This is only available in
Hive 2.1. They are trying to resolve the issues we hit:
> We would like to provide a way for developers/users to modify the numRows
and dataSize for a table/partition. Right now although they are part of the
table properties, they will be set to -1 when the task is not coming from a
statsTask.
Now, users can change the statistics by the DDL statement. For example,
```SQL
alter table s update statistics set('numRows'='1212',
'rawDataSize'='500500');
```
More important, after this fix, what we did in this PR does not work.
`STATS_GENERATED_VIA_STATS_TASK` is not available. Instead, they changed it to
`STATS_GENERATED`. Two options are availabel: `TASK` and `USER`.
Thus, I believe our solution should not be based on how Hive behaves, if
possible.
