Trino does not honor "hive.ignore-absent-partitions=true"

[coquebg]

I'm using Trino with Hive connector.
Underlying storage is Google Cloud storage

After migrating some tables with Google transfer service, for some partitions that does not contains data files - their corresponding "directories" where not created
Running query against these tables rise error:

TrinoExternalError(type=EXTERNAL, name=HIVE_FILE_NOT_FOUND, message="Partition location does not exist: gs://<bucket name here>/.../.../.../.../")

Hive connector uses the following configuratioon

hive.properties

connector.name=hive
fs.cache.enabled=true
fs.cache.directories=/cache
fs.cache.max-disk-usage-percentages=95
hive.collect-column-statistics-on-write=false
hive.config.resources=/etc/trino/core-site.xml,/etc/trino/hive-site.xml
hive.hive-views.enabled=true
hive.hive-views.legacy-translation=true
hive.hive-views.run-as-invoker=true
hive.ignore-absent-partitions=true
hive.metastore.thrift.impersonation.enabled=false
hive.metastore.uri=thrift://hive:9083
hive.metastore=thrift
hive.non-managed-table-creates-enabled=true
hive.non-managed-table-writes-enabled=true
hive.security=allow-all
hive.storage-format=PARQUET

core-site.xml contains GS specific part and works as expected

Trino version 451

I think I found the issue.
BackgroundHiveSplitLoader.java

This method does not account for ignoreAbsentPartitions

    private static void checkPartitionLocationExists(TrinoFileSystem fileSystem, Location location)
    {
        try {
            if (!fileSystem.directoryExists(location).orElse(true)) {
                throw new TrinoException(HIVE_FILE_NOT_FOUND, "Partition location does not exist: " + location);
            }
        }
        catch (IOException e) {
            throw new TrinoException(HIVE_FILESYSTEM_ERROR, "Failed checking directory path:" + location, e);
        }
    }

It should be reworked as

    private static void checkPartitionLocationExists(TrinoFileSystem fileSystem, Location location)
    {
        try {
            if (!fileSystem.directoryExists(location).orElse(!ignoreAbsentPartitions)) {
                throw new TrinoException(HIVE_FILE_NOT_FOUND, "Partition location does not exist: " + location);
            }
        }
        catch (IOException e) {
            throw new TrinoException(HIVE_FILESYSTEM_ERROR, "Failed checking directory path:" + location, e);
        }
    }
