    Description

      I create a ColumnStore table:

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARCHAR(4)) ENGINE=ColumnStore;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (NULL),('a');
      

      Now run queries with the LIKE predicate in combination with explicit NULL:

      SELECT a FROM t1 WHERE a NOT LIKE NULL;
      

      +------+
      | a    |
      +------+
      | a    |
      +------+
      

      SELECT a FROM t1 WHERE NULL NOT LIKE a;
      

      +------+
      | a    |
      +------+
      | a    |
      +------+
      

      Looks wrong. The expected result is to return no rows, like other engines do:

      DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t1;
      CREATE TABLE t1 (a VARCHAR(4)) ENGINE=MyISAM;
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (NULL),('a');
      

      SELECT a FROM t1 WHERE a NOT LIKE NULL;
      

      Empty set (0.000 sec)
      

      SELECT a FROM t1 WHERE NULL NOT LIKE a;
      

      Empty set (0.001 sec)
