Enis Soztutar commented on HBASE-15658:
---------------------------------------
Does ITBLL with CM run with this patch? We had discovered weird non-cleaned
cache behaviors previously that way.
> RegionServerCallable / RpcRetryingCaller clear meta cache on retries

> When RpcRetryingCaller.callWithRetries() attempts a retry, it calls
> RetryingCallable.prepare(tries != 0). For RegionServerCallable (and probably
> others), this will wind up calling
> RegionLocator.getRegionLocation(reload=true), which will drop the meta cache
> for the given region and always go back to meta.
> This is kind of silly, since in the case of exceptions, we already call
> RetryingCallable.throwable(), which goes to great pains to only refresh the
> meta cache when necessary. Since we are already doing this on failure, I
> don't really understand why we are doing duplicate work to refresh the meta
> cache on prepare() at all.
