> While studying the code for HBASE-7709, I found a serious bug in the current
> cyclic replication code. The problem is here in HRegion.doMiniBatchMutation:
> {code}
> Mutation first = batchOp.operations[firstIndex].getFirst();
> txid = this.log.appendNoSync(regionInfo,
> this.htableDescriptor.getName(),
> walEdit, first.getClusterId(), now, this.htableDescriptor);
> {code}
> Now note that edits replicated from remote cluster and local edits might
> interleave in the WAL, we might also receive edit from multiple remote
> clusters. Hence that <walEdit> might have edits from many clusters in it, but
> all are just labeled with the clusterId of the first Mutation.
> Fixing this in doMiniBatchMutation seems tricky to do efficiently (imagine we
> get a batch with cluster1, cluster2, cluster1, cluster2, ..., in that case
> each edit would have to be its own batch). The coprocessor handling would
> also be difficult.
> The other option is create batches of Puts grouped by the cluster id in
> ReplicationSink.replicateEntries(...), this is not as general, but equally
> correct. This is the approach I would favor.
> Lastly this is very hard to verify in a unittest.
