Andrew Kyle Purtell commented on HBASE-26537:
---------------------------------------------
I see, it's as you said to Duo

The implementation of FuzzyRowFilter in 1.1.5, 1.2.2, 1.3.0, 2.0.0 is not
broken – just the ability to upgrade from a previous release to one of those
releases.

however asking someone to upgrade from 1.2.0 to 1.8.0 is going to have other
implications, it is such a large jump. It is still worth making this change,
though, I will concede that.

> Key: HBASE-26537
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-26537
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.13, 1.2.12, 1.3.6
> Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault
> Assignee: Bryan Beaudreault
> Priority: Major
>
> HBASE-15676 introduced a backwards incompatible change which makes it
> impossible to upgrade in our designated upgraded order (server first, then
> client) without potential bad results. Worse, the failure mode is silent – a
> pre-HBASE-15676 client would incorrectly receive 0 results from a
> post-HBASE-15676 server.
> I solved this internally as part of our upgrade from 1.2.0 to 2.4.6 by adding
> a new proto field to switch between the two implementations. I'm submitting
> this Jira to capture and potentially backport that fix for anyone else who
> encounters it.
