Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-22460:
-----------------------------------
Description: We can leak store reader references if a coprocessor or core
function somehow opens a scanner, or wraps one, and then does not take care to
call close on the scanner or the wrapped instance. A reasonable mitigation for
a reader reference leak would be a fast reopen of the region on the same server
(initiated by the RS) This will release all resources, like the refcount,
leases, etc. The clients should gracefully ride over this like any other region
transition. This reopen would be like what is done during schema change
application and ideally would reuse the relevant code. If the refcount is over
some ridiculous threshold this mitigation could be triggered along with a fat
WARN in the logs.
