             Summary: PartitionPruner may reject partitionfilter expressions 
evaluating to unknown if the filter is safe
                 Key: HIVE-24940
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24940
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement

CREATE TABLE t1pstring (col1 string) PARTITIONED BY (p1 string);
INSERT INTO t1pstring PARTITION (p1) VALUES 
("2020","2020"),("2021","2021"),("2021_backup","2021_backup"),('8888','8888'),('88889','88889'),('8888_a','8888_a'),('a8888','a8888');

explain extended SELECT count(*) FROM t1pstring WHERE p1=8888;

|               /t1pstring/p1=8888 [t1pstring]       |
|               /t1pstring/p1=8888_a [t1pstring]     |

[...]
{code}

note:
* for all values which are interpretable as integers - the equals is evaluated 
and the result is false
* for {{NULL}} values and for non-integer values ({{a8888}}) the comparision 
results a {{NULL}} which is retained
* {{NULL}} -s are retained because there is a preprocessing step which removes 
functions which are dependant of non-partition columns as well - and replaces 
them with a {{NULL}}
