stack commented on HBASE-5689:
------------------------------

Good one Chunhui.  I think the patch good.

Nice reproduction of the problem in a test.  Where in the test do you find that 
we've lost the third edit?

So we name the file when we write it for its first edit, then when we move it 
into place, we rename it to be by last edit in the file?  Add a comment to that 
effect I'd say else could be confusing.  Hmm... I suppose you have it here on 
the doc for getCompletedRecoveredEditsFilePath.  Thats probably good enough.. 
but no harm explaining why we go from naming file w/ first edit to instead name 
it for the last edit.

> Let's see the following scenario:
> 1.Region is on the server A
> 2.put KV(r1->v1) to the region
> 3.move region from server A to server B
> 4.put KV(r2->v2) to the region
> 5.move region from server B to server A
> 6.put KV(r3->v3) to the region
> 7.kill -9 server B and start it
> 8.kill -9 server A and start it 
> 9.scan the region, we could only get two KV(r1->v1,r2->v2), the third 
> KV(r3->v3) is lost.
> Let's analyse the upper scenario from the code:
> 1.the edit logs of KV(r1->v1) and KV(r3->v3) are both recorded in the same 
> hlog file on server A.
> 2.when we split server B's hlog file in the process of ServerShutdownHandler, 
> we create one RecoveredEdits file f1 for the region.
> 2.when we split server A's hlog file in the process of ServerShutdownHandler, 
> we create another RecoveredEdits file f2 for the region.
> 3.however, RecoveredEdits file f2 will be skiped when initializing region
> HRegion#replayRecoveredEditsIfAny
> {code}
