Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-6331:
---------------------------------------
Actually we go one problem while running HBCK. Based on the code review seen
this. As you said if NULL is end key and it is being handled then it code
should be okey. I will verify all with test case.
Actually from the log I have seen that the new region created to solve overlap
was not having empty end key. I will get and attach that log.
I will investigate further on this.

> In HDFSIntegrityFixer#mergeOverlaps(), there is a logic to create the final
> range of the region after the overlap.
> I can see one issue with this code
> {code}
> if (RegionSplitCalculator.BYTES_COMPARATOR
> .compare(hi.getEndKey(), range.getSecond()) > 0) {
> range.setSecond(hi.getEndKey());
> }
> {code}
> Here suppose the regions include the end region for which the endKey will be
> empty, we need to get finally the range with endkey as empty byte[]
> But as per the above logic it will see that any other key greater than the
> empty byte[] and will set it.
> Finally the new region created will not get endkey as empty byte[]
