[FEA] [AUDIT] Support reading Avro with recursive schema reference
Opened this issue · 0 comments

SPARK-48939 allows Spark 4.0 to now read Avro input where the schema is self-referential.
For instance:
{
"type": "record",
"name": "LongList",
"fields" : [
{"name": "value", "type": "long"},
{"name": "next", "type": ["null", "LongList"]}
]
}
This isn't yet supported in the spark-rapids
plugin's Avro reader. This might be required at some point, for parity.
