Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-5997:
---------------------------------------
Sorry could not complete the typing and by mistake pressed submit :(
Continuation of the above comment
As per the documentation of this API
{code}
* Return the row that matches <i>row</i> exactly,
* or the one that immediately precedes it.
{code}
If there are 2 regions in a table [r1,r3) and [r3,r5)
When this API is called with row as r3, The client will select the second
region. And suppose there is no KV in this region with rowkey as r3. So the
return from this region will be null... But still as a user I would expect the
call to return highest row from the 1st region. Say there we have row with key
r2...
Still this API will not do that and will return null
This same kind of handling might be needed when we have more than one region in
the META table also...
Hope I am making it clear
