Description

There is a utility in hive which can validate/fix corrupted hive.acid.key.index.
hive --service fixacidkeyindex
Unfortunately it is only tailored for a specific problem (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18907), instead of generally validating and recovering the hive.acid.key.index from the stripe data itself.
