Major Description
When using "extreme" values in the partition column (like having a randomly generated long number) overflow might happen, leading to the following warning message:
WARN JDBCRelation: The number of partitions is reduced because the specified number of partitions is less than the difference between upper bound and lower bound. Updated number of partitions: -1559072469251914524; Input number of partitions: 20; Lower bound: -7701345953623242445; Upper bound: 9186325650834394647.
When this happens, no data is read from the table.
This happens because of the following check in org/apache/spark/sql/execution/datasources/jdbc/JDBCRelation.scala:
if ((upperBound - lowerBound) >= partitioning.numPartitions)
Funny thing is that we worry about overflows a few lines later:
// Overflow and silliness can happen if you subtract then divide. // Here we get a little roundoff, but that's (hopefully) OK.
A better check would be:
if ((upperBound - partitioning.numPartitions) >= lowerBound)
