<h2 id="deprecations">Deprecations</h2>
<ul>
<li>In spark.mllib.clustering.KMeans, the &#8220;runs&#8221; parameter has been deprecated.</li>
<li>In spark.ml.classification.LogisticRegressionModel and spark.ml.regression.LinearRegressionModel, the &#8220;weights&#8221; field has been deprecated, in favor of the new name &#8220;coefficients.&#8221; This helps disambiguate from instance (row) weights given to algorithms.</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="changes-of-behavior">Changes of behavior</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>MLlib</strong>
<ul>
<li><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">spark.mllib.tree.GradientBoostedTrees</code> <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">validationTol</code> has changed semantics in 1.6. Previously, it was a threshold for absolute change in error. Now, it resembles the behavior of <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">GradientDescent</code> <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">convergenceTol</code>: For large errors, it uses relative error (relative to the previous error); for small errors (&lt; 0.01), it uses absolute error.</li>
<li><code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">spark.ml.feature.RegexTokenizer</code>: Previously, it did not convert strings to lowercase before tokenizing. Now, it converts to lowercase by default, with an option not to. This matches the behavior of the simpler Tokenizer transformer.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>SQL</strong>
<ul>
<li>The flag (spark.sql.tungsten.enabled) that turns off Tungsten mode and code generation has been removed. Tungsten mode and code generation are always enabled (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11644">SPARK-11644</a>).</li>
<li>Spark SQL&#8217;s partition discovery has been changed to only discover partition directories that are children of the given path. (i.e. if <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">path="/my/data/x=1"</code> then <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">x=1</code> will no longer be considered a partition but only children of <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">x=1</code>.) This behavior can be overridden by manually specifying the <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">basePath</code> that partitioning discovery should start with (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11678">SPARK-11678</a>).</li>
<li>For a UDF, if it has primitive type input argument (a non-nullable input argument), when the value of this argument is null, this UDF will return null (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11725">SPARK-11725</a>).</li>
<li>When casting a value of an integral type to timestamp (e.g. casting a long value to timestamp), the value is treated as being in seconds instead of milliseconds (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11724">SPARK-11724</a>).</li>
<li>With the improved query planner for queries having distinct aggregations (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9241">SPARK-9241</a>), the plan of a query having a single distinct aggregation has been changed to a more robust version. To switch back to the plan generated by Spark 1.5&#8217;s planner, please set <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">spark.sql.specializeSingleDistinctAggPlanning</code> to <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">true</code> (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12077">SPARK-12077</a>).</li>
<li>getBoolean, getByte, getShort, getInt, getLong, getFloat and getDouble of a Row will throw a NullPointerException if the value at the given ordinal is a null (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11553">SPARK-11553</a>).</li>
<li>variance is the alias of var_samp instead of var_pop (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11490">SPARK-11490</a>).</li>
<li>The semantic of casting a String type value to a Boolean type value has been changed (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10442">SPARK-10442</a>). Casting any one of &#8220;t&#8221;, &#8220;true&#8221;, &#8220;y&#8221;, &#8220;yes&#8221;, and &#8220;1&#8221; will return true. Casting any of &#8220;f&#8221;, &#8220;false&#8221;, &#8220;n&#8221;, &#8220;no&#8221;, and &#8220;0&#8221; will return false. For other String literals, casting them to a Boolean type value will return null.</li>
<li>Aggregate function first and last will not ignore null values by default (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-9740">SPARK-9740</a>). To make them ignore null values, users can set the second argument of first and last to true. For example, first(col, true) will return the first non-null value of the column col.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="known-issues">Known issues</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12546">SPARK-12546</a> Save DataFrame/table as Parquet with dynamic partitions may cause OOM; this can be worked around by decreasing the memory used by both Spark and Parquet using <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">spark.memory.fraction</code> (for example, 0.4) and <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">parquet.memory.pool.ratio</code> (for example, 0.3, in Hadoop configuration, e.g. setting it in <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">core-site.xml</code>).</li>
