Yuki Morishita reopened CASSANDRA-8979:
---------------------------------------
dtest is failing on trunk. 2.0 and 2.1 are fine.
I will investigate.
> MerkleTree mismatch for deleted and non-existing rows

> Validation compaction will currently create different hashes for rows that
> have been deleted compared to nodes that have not seen the rows at all or
> have already compacted them away.
> In case this sounds familiar to you, see CASSANDRA-4905 which was supposed to
> prevent hashing of expired tombstones. This still seems to be in place, but
> does not address the issue completely. Or there was a change in 2.0 that
> rendered the patch ineffective.
> The problem is that rowHash() in the Validator will return a new hash in any
> case, whether the PrecompactedRow did actually update the digest or not. This
> will lead to the case that a purged, PrecompactedRow will not change the
> digest, but we end up with a different tree compared to not having rowHash
> called at all (such as in case the row already doesn't exist).
> As an implication, repair jobs will constantly detect mismatches between
> older sstables containing purgable rows and nodes that have already compacted
> these rows. After transfering the reported ranges, the newly created sstables
> will immediately get deleted again during the following compaction. This will
> happen for each repair run over again until the sstable with the purgable row
> finally gets compacted.
