Jeffrey Zhong commented on HBASE-8701:
--------------------------------------
The basic idea of using MVCC field to store negative sequence number of replay
edits is that we can identify the order of edits by referring their change
sequence number. Storing negative values is to differentiate normal
non-negative MVCC values.
(Following are for edits of same key + timestamp)
Since we tag each recovered edit with its sequence number, we don't need
separate memstores to flush. When a store file contains mix recovered edits and
writes during recovery, new writes has non-negative mvcc values so they will
use the sequence number of its hfile while recovered edits has negative MVCC
they will use -MVCC value as their sequence number which are less than the
hfile sequence number as we guarantee a newer hfile has higher sequence number.
Similar logic is used to resolve recovered redits in different hfiles.
Since the patch is attached, I think it's better to suggest potential issues
based on patch. You can see basic idea from the small 8701-v3.txt.

> This issue happens in distributedLogReplay mode when recovering multiple puts
> of the same key + version(timestamp). After replay, the value is
> nondeterministic of the key
> h5. The original concern situation raised from [~eclark]:
> For all edits the rowkey is the same.
> There's a log with: [ A (ts = 0), B (ts = 0) ]
> Replay the first half of the log.
> A user puts in C (ts = 0)
> Memstore has to flush
> A new Hfile will be created with [ C, A ] and MaxSequenceId = C's seqid.
> Replay the rest of the Log.
> Flush
> The issue will happen in similar situation like Put(key, t=T) in WAL1 and
> Put(key,t=T) in WAL2
> h5. Below is the option(proposed by Ted) I'd like to use:
> a) During replay, we pass original wal sequence number of each edit to the
> receiving RS
> b) In receiving RS, we store negative original sequence number of wal edits
> into mvcc field of KVs of wal edits
> c) Add handling of negative MVCC in KVScannerComparator and KVComparator
> d) In receiving RS, write original sequence number into an optional field of
> wal file for chained RS failure situation
> e) When opening a region, we add a safety bumper(a large number) in order for
> the new sequence number of a newly opened region not to collide with old
> sequence numbers.
> In the future, when we stores sequence number along with KVs, we can adjust
> the above solution a little bit by avoiding to overload MVCC field.
> h5. The other alternative options are listed below for references:
> Option one
> a) disallow writes during recovery
> b) during replay, we pass original wal sequence ids
> c) hold flush till all wals of a recovering region are replayed. Memstore
> should hold because we only recover unflushed wal edits. For edits with same
> key + version, whichever with larger sequence Id wins.
> Option two
> a) During replay, we pass original wal sequence ids
> b) for each wal edit, we store each edit's original sequence id along with
> its key.
> c) during scanning, we use the original sequence id if it's present otherwise
> its store file sequence Id
> d) compaction can just leave put with max sequence id
> Please let me know if you have better ideas.
