--------------------------------------
Summary: The last concurrent update can complete the last write
phase
Key: PHOENIX-5562
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-5562
Project: Phoenix
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 5.1.0
Reporter: Kadir OZDEMIR
Assignee: Kadir OZDEMIR
>From the consistent secondary indexing design (PHOENIX-5156) perspective, two
>or more updates on the same row are concurrent updates if and only if all of
>them have acquired the row lock for reading the data table row before any of
>of them acquires the row lock the second time for updating the data table. In
>other words, all of them are in the first update phase concurrently.
In the current implementation, these updates can detect the existence of each
other in two places
(1) after acquiring the lock to read the existing row on the data table
(1) after acquiring the row lock to update the data table
This allows all the concurrent updates to detect each other and complete first
two update phases but skip the last update phase. This means the data table row
will be updated by these updates but the corresponding index table rows will be
left with the unverified status. Then, the read repair process will repair
these unverified index rows during scans. Although this behavior leads to the
correct end result, ideally we would like to see that the concurrent update
with most recent timestamp proceeds with the last phase instead of leaving the
index rows in the unverified status. This would reduce the number of unverified
rows due to concurrent updates.
