Michael Stack commented on HBASE-25145:
---------------------------------------
I wrote a test and it doesn't look like WALReader thread quits. It stays up as
long as there is a WAL around – as per [~zhangduo] above – which will be the
case given how HBASE-25055 is implemented. Let me try some more. Shout if you
have a pointer on what to look at [~huaxiangsun] - thanks.
(The test did find a good issue – see HBASE-25151)
> WALReader quits if nothing to replicate (and won't restart)

> meta region is moved back, it does not seem that walReader thread will be
> restarted. So it seems that something is broken.
