Nicholas Telford updated CASSANDRA-3385:
----------------------------------------
Attachment: 0001-Changed-assertions-in-delivery-of-hints-to-a-check-t.patch
As Jonathan said, it looks like either old hints that haven't been cleaned or
some corruption to the hints that are stored.
While it's probably important to find the source of this problem, I think it's
really bad that we use assertions to check for it. Hinted Handoff is an
optimization, so for invalid hints shouldn't break things.
The attached patch removes the assertions and replaces them with a check to
ensure the hint is valid. If it's not, a warning will be emitted (so you know
something's not quite right) and everything will continue as normal.
