Ferdinand Xu updated HIVE-8136: ------------------------------- Attachment: HIVE-8136.1.patch As discussed offline with [~brocknoland], for altering location, anyone who is reading has already gotten the location they are reading from, the new location is irrelevant to them and it is relevant to writers. [~brocknoland] and [~szehon], could you help me review this patch and check it in? Thank you! > Reduce table locking > -------------------- > > Key: HIVE-8136 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8136 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Brock Noland > Assignee: Ferdinand Xu > Attachments: HIVE-8136.1.patch, HIVE-8136.patch > > > When using ZK for concurrency control, some statements require an exclusive > table lock when they are atomic.
