Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-20708:
-----------------------------------
OK I found the side effect to not always set meta state to OPEN. In
AsyncProcess, if we fail to locate a region, then we will fail directly without
retrying. So TestMetaTableAccessor.testRetrying will be very easy to fail since
in the old time, it will always get a location and then fail to send request to
the RS, and then it will retry. But now it may receive a meta table in OPENING
state error and then fail directly...
But I think this is a problem for AsyncProcess?

> In HBASE-20700, we make RecoverMetaProcedure use a special lock which is only
> used by RMP to avoid dead lock with MoveRegionProcedure. But we will always
> schedule a RMP when master starting up, so we still need to make sure that
> there is no race between this RMP and other RMPs and SCPs scheduled before
> the master restarts.
