What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Spark has a (long-standing) overflow bug in the
sequenceexpression.Consider the following operations:
The result of these operations will be:
an unintended consequence of overflow.
The sequence is applied to values
0andLong.MaxValuewith a step size of1which uses a length computation defined here. In this calculation, withstart = 0,stop = Long.MaxValue, andstep = 1, the calculatedlenoverflows toLong.MinValue. The computation, in binary looks like:The following check passes as the negative
Long.MinValueis still<= MAX_ROUNDED_ARRAY_LENGTH. The following cast totoIntuses this representation and truncates the upper bits resulting in an empty length of0.Other overflows are similarly problematic.
This PR addresses the issue by checking numeric operations in the length computation for overflow.
Why are the changes needed?
There is a correctness bug from overflow in the
sequenceexpression.Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
No.
