-----------------------------------
Assignee: BELUGA BEHR
> CellCodec Written To WAL Before It's Verified
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-21492
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-21492
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wal
> Affects Versions: 1.2.7, 2.0.2
> Reporter: BELUGA BEHR
> Assignee: BELUGA BEHR
> Priority: Critical
>
> The cell codec class name is written into the WAL file, but the cell codec
> class is not actually verified to exist. Therefore, users can inadvertently
> configure an invalid class name and it will be recorded into the WAL file.
> At that point, the WAL file becomes unreadable and blocks processing of all
> other WAL files.
> {code:java|title=AbstractProtobufLogWriter.java}
> private WALHeader buildWALHeader0(Configuration conf, WALHeader.Builder
> builder) {
> if (!builder.hasWriterClsName()) {
> builder.setWriterClsName(getWriterClassName());
> }
> if (!builder.hasCellCodecClsName()) {
> builder.setCellCodecClsName(WALCellCodec.getWALCellCodecClass(conf));
> }
> return builder.build();
> }
> {code}
