    Description

      Several exceptions occurred when running TPC-DS queries against latest master branch with sort-based shuffle enable, like PARSING_ERROR(2) in snappy, deserializing error in Kryo and offset out-range in FileManagedBuffer, all these exceptions are gone when we changed to hash-based shuffle.

      With deep investigation, we found that some shuffle output file is unexpectedly smaller than the others, as the log shows:

      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_9_11, offset: 3055635, length: 236708, file length: 47274167
      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_10_11, offset: 2986484, length: 222755, file length: 47174539
      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_11_11, offset: 2995341, length: 259871, file length: 383405
      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_12_11, offset: 2991030, length: 268191, file length: 47478892
      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_13_11, offset: 3016292, length: 230694, file length: 47420826
      14/10/14 18:25:06 INFO shuffle.IndexShuffleBlockManager: Block id: shuffle_6_14_11, offset: 3061400, length: 241136, file length: 47395509
      

      As you can see the total file length of shuffle_6_11_11 is much smaller than other same stage map output results.

      And we also dump the map outputs in map side to see if this small size output is correct or not, below is the log:

      Here I dump the file name, length and each partition's length, obviously the sum of all partition lengths is not equal to file length. So I think there may be a situation paritionWriter in ExternalSorter not always append to the end of previous written file, the file's content is overwritten in some parts, and this lead to the exceptions I mentioned before.

      Also I changed the code of copyStream by disable transferTo, use the previous one, all the issues are gone. So I think there maybe some flushing problems in transferTo when processed data is large.
