Yu Li commented on HBASE-14004:
-------------------------------
Let me confirm, do you mean we never rollback the memstore even if
buffered-entries rewrite failed, so it will be included in the flushed HFile?
I think current logic only makes sure already flushed entries won't be
replayed, but not duplicated entries. If the memstore rolled back and the
duplicated entry is the last write, I don't think lastFlushedSeqId could skip it
> [Replication] Inconsistency between Memstore and WAL may result in data in
> remote cluster that is not in the origin

> 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.
