             Summary: Can't rebuild SASI index
                 Key: CASSANDRA-12374
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12374
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Alex Petrov


There's been no real requirement for that so far. 

As [~beobal] has pointed out, it's not a big issue, since that only could be 
needed when index files are lost, data corruption on disk (hardware issue) has 
occurred or there was a bug that'd require an index rebuild.

During {{rebuild_index}} task, indexes are only "marked" as removed with 
{{SecondaryIndexManager::markIndexRemoved}} and then {{buildIndexesBlocking}} 
is called. However, since SASI keeps track of SSTables for the index, it's 
going to filter them out with {{.filter((sstable) -> 
!sasi.index.hasSSTable(sstable))}} in {{SASIIndexBuildingSupport}}.

If I understand the logic correctly, we have to "invalidate" (drop data) right 
before we re-index them. This is also a blocker for [CASSANDRA-11990] since 
without it we can't have an upgrade path.

I have a patch ready in branch, but since it's a bug, it's better to have it 
released earlier and for all branches affected.
