You are right, the logic that ignores logs which are already in HFiles is in
HRegion.replayRecoveredEdits, so the logic of filtering seen logs should also
be there?

yeah, maybe we should store the max seqid of 'acked hflushed' wal entries in
some places (ZK or system table), we could use this information to skip
entries in new WAL.

> Key: HBASE-14004
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14004
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: regionserver
> Reporter: He Liangliang
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: replication, wal
>
> Looks like the current write path can cause inconsistency between
> memstore/hfile and WAL which cause the slave cluster has more data than the
> master cluster.
> The simplified write path looks like:
> 1. insert record into Memstore
> 2. write record to WAL
> 3. sync WAL
> 4. rollback Memstore if 3 fails
> It's possible that the HDFS sync RPC call fails, but the data is already
> (may partially) transported to the DNs which finally get persisted. As a
> result, the handler will rollback the Memstore and the later flushed HFile
> will also skip this record.
