Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-15441:
-----------------------------------------
I think the only way to achieve this would be to add interrupt checks on case
by case basis.
Talking to remote metastore or metastore DB should be blocking, right? So at
least the network call will be interrupted, and hopefully won't just lead to
retry, undecipherable errors or some other such nonsense typical of the Hive
exception handing :)
> Provide a config to timeout long compiling queries

>
> Sometimes Hive users have long compiling queries which may need to scan
> thousands or even more partitions (perhaps by accident). The compilation
> process may take a very long time, especially in {{getInputSummary}} where it
> need to make NN calls to get info about each input path.
> This is bad because it may block many other queries. Parallel compilation may
> be useful but still {{getInputSummary}} has a global lock. In this case, it
> makes sense to provide Hive admin with a config to put a timeout limit for
> compilation, so that these "bad" queries can be blocked.
> Note https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12431 also tries to address
> similar issue. However it cancels those queries that are waiting for the
> compile lock, which I think is not so useful for our case since the *query
> under compile is the one to be blamed.*
