The document discusses Spark SQL's SQL parsing process. It explains that sqlContext.sql() uses a DDLParser and SparkSQLParser to parse the SQL string into a LogicalPlan using a ParserDialect. It then shows the classes involved in more detail, including the AbstractSparkSQLParser which is extended by SqlParser to define the parsing rules and parse the SQL into a LogicalPlan. It also mentions that Project Tungsten changed parts of the parsing from parser combinators to runtime code generation for performance.
