Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-15638:
----------------------------------------

Yes.  For Admin public APIs what we did is we deprecated old PB object methods 
APIs in branch-1 and removed in trunk.  Ya the deprecation happened in the mid 
of 1.x line only.  The argument to relax the compatibility guarantee was that 
Admin is marked evolving.
@InterfaceAudience.Public
@InterfaceStability.Evolving
public interface Admin extends Abortable, Closeable 

Am not sure for CP how we can do now.. Same way of deprecation model as done 
for Admin or deprecate in 2.0 and remove in 3.0?

> We need to change our protobuf. Currently it is pb2.5.0. As is, protobufs 
> expect all buffers to be on-heap byte arrays. It does not have facility for 
> dealing in ByteBuffers and off-heap ByteBuffers in particular. This fact 
> frustrates the off-heaping-of-the-write-path project as 
> marshalling/unmarshalling of protobufs involves a copy on-heap first.
> So, we need to patch our protobuf so it supports off-heap ByteBuffers. To 
> ensure we pick up the patched protobuf always, we need to relocate/shade our 
> protobuf and adjust all protobuf references accordingly.
> Given as we have protobufs in our public facing API, Coprocessor Endpoints -- 
> which use protobuf Service to describe new API -- a blind relocation/shading 
> of com.google.protobuf.* will break our API for CoProcessor EndPoints (CPEP) 
> in particular. For example, in the Table Interface, to invoke a method on a 
> registered CPEP, we have:
> {code}<T extends com.google.protobuf.Service,R> Map<byte[],R> 
> coprocessorService(
> Class<T> service, byte[] startKey, byte[] endKey,                             
>                 org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.coprocessor.Batch.Call<T,R> 
> callable)
> throws com.google.protobuf.ServiceException, Throwable{code}
> This issue is how we intend to shade protobuf for hbase-2.0.0 while 
> preserving our API as is so CPEPs continue to work on the new hbase.
