--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Ordering is lost when limit is put in outer query
                 Key: HIVE-8089
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8089
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Laljo John Pullokkaran


It seems like hive supports order by, limit in sub queries (compiler doesn't 
complain). However ordering seems to be lost based on where you place the 
limit.   I haven't debugged the issue.

ex:
select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 order 
by c_int limit 5)t1)t1;
null    NULL
null    NULL
1       1
1       1
1       1

select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 order 
by c_int)t1 limit 5)t1;
1       1
1       1
1       1
null    NULL
null    NULL

select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from (select key, c_int from t1 order 
by c_int limit 5)t1 limit 5)t1;
1       1
1       1
1       1
null    NULL
null    NULL
