Blake Eggleston commented on CASSANDRA-12888:
---------------------------------------------

bq.  How about keeping the streamed sstables, and having a special 
mutation.apply path that only writes to the commit log/CDC and apply MVs

That does seem like it would be the simplest way to do it.  You'd just need to 
skip [this 
loop|https://github.com/bdeggleston/cassandra/blob/0a1f1c81e641039ca9fd573d5217b6b6f2ad8fb8/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/Keyspace.java#L584-L584].
 When those commit log entries get replayed on startup though, you'll have 
repaired data leak into unrepaired (or at least be duplicated there), causing 
data to be re-streamed on the next repair. You could avoid that with a 
'cdc-only' flag on the commit log entry though.

>
> SSTables streamed during the repair process will first be written locally and 
> afterwards either simply added to the pool of existing sstables or, in case 
> of existing MVs or active CDC, replayed on mutation basis:
> As described in {{StreamReceiveTask.OnCompletionRunnable}}:
> {quote}
> We have a special path for views and for CDC.
> For views, since the view requires cleaning up any pre-existing state, we 
> must put all partitions through the same write path as normal mutations. This 
> also ensures any 2is are also updated.
> For CDC-enabled tables, we want to ensure that the mutations are run through 
> the CommitLog so they can be archived by the CDC process on discard.
> {quote}
> Using the regular write path turns out to be an issue for incremental 
> repairs, as we loose the {{repaired_at}} state in the process. Eventually the 
> streamed rows will end up in the unrepaired set, in contrast to the rows on 
> the sender site moved to the repaired set. The next repair run will stream 
> the same data back again, causing rows to bounce on and on between nodes on 
> each repair.
> See linked dtest on steps to reproduce. An example for reproducing this 
> manually using ccm can be found
