Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-14404:
-----------------------------------
       Resolution: Invalid
         Assignee:     (was: Andrew Purtell)
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 0.98.15)
           Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)

The test results are not good. Take TestTags for example:
{noformat}
Tests run: 4, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 28.383 sec <<< 
FAILURE! - in org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.TestTags
testFlushAndCompactionwithCombinations(org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.TestTags)
  Time elapsed: 3.899 sec  <<< FAILURE!
java.lang.AssertionError: expected:<1> but was:<0>
        at org.junit.Assert.fail(Assert.java:88)
        at org.junit.Assert.failNotEquals(Assert.java:743)
        at org.junit.Assert.assertEquals(Assert.java:118)
        at org.junit.Assert.assertEquals(Assert.java:555)
        at org.junit.Assert.assertEquals(Assert.java:542)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.TestTags.testFlushAndCompactionwithCombinations(TestTags.java:326)

Results :

Failed tests: 
  TestTags.testFlushAndCompactionwithCombinations:326 expected:<1> but was:<0>
{noformat}

This change triggers that failure (and the others). Checked the logs and there 
are no unexpected errors or warnings and no occurrences of the new debug log 
line "Unable to set drop behind on ..." to indicate anything amiss. Yet we 
don't read back the data we are expecting.

No interest in proceeding further, resolving as Invalid. 

> Backport HBASE-14098 (Allow dropping caches behind compactions) to 0.98

> HBASE-14098 adds a new configuration toggle - 
> "hbase.hfile.drop.behind.compaction" - which if set to "true" tells 
> compactions to drop pages from the OS blockcache after write.  It's on by 
> default where committed so far but a backport to 0.98 would default it to 
> off. (The backport would also retain compat methods to LimitedPrivate 
> interface StoreFileScanner.) What could make it a controversial change in 
> 0.98 is it changes the default setting of 
> 'hbase.regionserver.compaction.private.readers' from "false" to "true".  I 
> think it's fine, we use private readers in production. They're stable and do 
> not present perf issues.
