Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-6688:
--------------------------------------------
.bq This affects 1.2 as well right?
yeah, looks like it
Should we perhaps stop skipping levels? Can't really see it happening more than
once in the lifetime of a cluster, right after bootstrap (or after dropping all
the sstables to L0), first compaction might skip L1.

> Two cases where we can end up with overlapping sstables in the leveled
> manifest;
> FIrst one is when we skip levels during compaction. Here we need to make sure
> we are not compacting in newLevel - 1 since if, for example, we are doing a
> L1 -> L2 compaction and then start a new L0 compaction where we decide to
> skip L1, we could have overlapping sstables in L2 when the compactions are
> done. This case is new in 2.0 since we check if we skip levels before the
> compaction starts.
> Second case is where we try to include as many overlapping L0 sstables as
> possible, here we could add sstables that are not compacting, but overlap
> sstables that are.
