stack commented on HBASE-21246:
-------------------------------
I thought WALIdentity would be an opaque class that we'd pass around. It'd be
its own specific Type. Here it seems WALIdentity is a String.
If its private, it can't be evolving
24 @InterfaceAudience.Private
25 @InterfaceStability.Evolving
How does a WALIdentity float free of a WAL Instance? You get one from the
WALProvider? What do you do with it then? What is the wal param we pass? Why I
need that?

> We are introducing WALIdentity interface so that the WAL representation can
> be decoupled from distributed filesystem.
> The interface provides getName method whose return value can represent
> filename in distributed filesystem environment or, the name of the stream
> when the WAL is backed by log stream.
