> During drop partition on a managed table, first we delete the directory
> corresponding to the partition. After that we recursively delete the parent
> directory as well if parent directory becomes empty. To do this emptiness
> check, we call Warehouse::getContentSummary(), which in turn recursively
> check all files and subdirectories. This is a costly operation when a
> directory has a lot of files or subdirectories. This overhead is even more
> prominent for cloud based file systems like s3. And for emptiness check, this
> is unnecessary too.
> This is recursive listing was introduced as part of HIVE-5220. Code snippet
> for reference :
> {code:java}
> // Warehouse.java
> public boolean isEmpty(Path path) throws IOException, MetaException {
> ContentSummary contents = getFs(path).getContentSummary(path);
> if (contents != null && contents.getFileCount() == 0 &&
> contents.getDirectoryCount() == 1) {
> return true;
> }
> return false;
> }
> // HiveMetaStore.java
> private void deleteParentRecursive(Path parent, int depth, boolean mustPurge,
> boolean needRecycle)
> throws IOException, MetaException {
> if (depth > 0 && parent != null && wh.isWritable(parent)) {
> if (wh.isDir(parent) && wh.isEmpty(parent)) {
> wh.deleteDir(parent, true, mustPurge, needRecycle);
> }
> deleteParentRecursive(parent.getParent(), depth - 1, mustPurge,
> needRecycle);
> }
> }
> // Note: FileSystem::getContentSummary() performs a recursive listing.{code}
