[~smiklosovic] sure, [here|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/pull/3737] you
go.
bq. This seems a better idea, having the schema disagreement when repairs are
still working and at the same time as the 4.0->5.0 ones.
Alright, that is as simple as reverting the calculateSchemaDigest compatibility
which I've done, so now the disagreement occurs at CASSANDRA_4 but the rest is
held until UPGRADING.
bq. For existing tests I think this means we have to run them outside of
CASSANDRA_4 mode
This works well, essentially restoring CI to the state it was in before, but it
occurs to me this leaves a gap where things can be broken in CASSANDRA_4 mode
and that is especially tricky to exercise in CI. My best plan is to hack the
branch to set the version (falsely) to 4.1 and see what shakes out from there.

> I have discovered that some hints were not being processed after nodes come
> back up when a cluster in in a mixed mode with some cassandra 4 nodes and
> some cassdandra 5 nodes ( these with a storage compatibility mode CASSANDRA_4
> )
>
> When in this mode there is a schema mismatch after the first node has been
> upgraded, which continues until the last node has been upgraded.
> It seems that the hints are blocked from being sent if there is a schema
> mismatch between the 2 nodes, that can be seen at this line.

> I have tested removing this line, and that then does allow the hint to be
> transferred normally. However I am not sure of the implications for doing
> that if the hint is for part of the schema where the actual mismatch occurs.

> This creates the problem when a node is being upgraded and is currently down,
> hint files will be created for it on the new cassandra 5 nodes and the old
> cassandra 4 nodes, but the hint files on the old cassandra 4 nodes will not
> be processed, due to the schema mismatch. Leading to potential data loss.
