                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13938
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: master, regionserver
            Reporter: Devaraj Das
             Fix For: 1.1.1


Was looking at an issue from our internal testing. It seems the Deletes of the 
region rows from the meta done during the merge transaction could be eclipsed 
by the Put of a region row that might have happened moments before.
The master logs this for the merge:
{noformat}
2015-06-18 13:13:46,018 INFO  [AM.ZK.Worker-pool2-t12] 
master.AssignmentManager: Handled MERGED event; 
merged=IntegrationTestIngest,a666665c,1434633226681.0927319db6bf5e128e3bec2a420819aa.,
 
region_a=IntegrationTestIngest,a666665c,1434631353820.8b911862d7705ac808b8d132d0154c16.,
 
region_b=IntegrationTestIngest,acccccc2,1434631353820.1bdaf759862f45d133ef77fdbda21aec.,
 on ddas-2-5.openstacklocal,16020,1434632778438
{noformat}

One of the regions that got merged got Opened a few seconds back:
{noformat}
2015-06-18 13:13:46,591 INFO  [RS_OPEN_REGION-ddas-2-5:16020-1] 
regionserver.HRegion: Onlined 1bdaf759862f45d133ef77fdbda21aec; next 
sequenceid=182988
{noformat}
The above would have done a Put in the meta.

Looking at the raw scan of the meta, for the new merged region, the creation 
timestamp is 1434633226101:
{noformat}
 IntegrationTestIngest,a666665c,1434633226681.0927319db6bf5e128e3bec2a420819aa. 
column=info:regioninfo, timestamp=1434633226101, value={ENCODED => 
0927319db6bf5e128e3bec2a420819aa, NAME => 
'IntegrationTestIngest,a666665c,1434633226681.0927319db6bf5e128e3bec2a420819aa.',
 STARTKEY => 'a666665c', ENDKEY => 'b3333328'}
{noformat}

Looking at the raw scan of the meta, the timestamp for the region open of the 
already merged region is 1434633226600. This is a little after the merge 
transaction's timestamp.
{noformat}
IntegrationTestIngest,acccccc2,1434631353820.1bdaf759862f45d133ef77fdbda21aec. 
column=info:seqnumDuringOpen, timestamp=1434633226600, 
value=\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\xCA\xCC
 IntegrationTestIngest,acccccc2,1434631353820.1bdaf759862f45d133ef77fdbda21aec. 
column=info:server, timestamp=1434633226600, value=ddas-2-5.openstacklocal:16020
 IntegrationTestIngest,acccccc2,1434631353820.1bdaf759862f45d133ef77fdbda21aec. 
column=info:serverstartcode, timestamp=1434633226600, value=1434632778438
{noformat}

We need to fix it so that the merge region transaction also takes the master's 
timestamp. Similar to HBASE-13875.

When this happens, clients start to see a row in the meta with an empty 
HRegionInfo (this is because the Put done during the region open only updates 
the location information but not the HRI, and the HRI deleted during the merge 
transaction "remains deleted").
