stack updated HBASE-17177:
--------------------------
Priority: Critical (was: Major)
> Compaction can break the region/row level atomic when scan even if we pass
> mvcc to client

> Key: HBASE-17177
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17177
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: scan
> Reporter: Duo Zhang
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.5.0

>
> We know that major compaction will actually delete the cells which are
> deleted by a delete marker. In order to give a consistent view for a scan, we
> need to use a map to track the read points for all scanners for a region, and
> the smallest one will be used for a compaction. For all delete markers whose
> mvcc is greater than this value, we will not use it to delete other cells.
> And the problem for a scan restart after region move is that, the new RS does
> not have the information of the scanners opened at the old RS before the
> client sends scan requests to the new RS which means the read points map is
> incomplete and the smallest read point maybe greater than the correct value.
> So if a major compaction happens at that time, it may delete some cells which
> should be kept.
