Feng Honghua created HBASE-10324: ------------------------------------ Summary: refactor deferred-log-flush/Durability related interface/code/naming to align with changed semantic by the new write thread model Key: HBASE-10324 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10324 Project: HBase Issue Type: Improvement Components: Client, regionserver Reporter: Feng Honghua Assignee: Feng Honghua
By the new write thread model introduced by [HBASE-8755|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-8755], some deferred-log-flush/Durability API/code/names should be change accordingly: 1. no timer-triggered deferred-log-flush since flush is always done by async threads, so configuration 'hbase.regionserver.optionallogflushinterval' is no longer needed 2. the async writer-syncer-notifier threads will always be triggered implicitly, this semantic is that it always holds that 'hbase.regionserver.optionallogflushinterval' > 0, so deferredLogSyncDisabled in HRegion.java which affects durability behavior should always be true 3. what HTableDescriptor.isDeferredLogFlush really means is the write can return without waiting for the sync is done, so the interface name should be changed to isAsyncLogFlush/setAsyncLogFlush to reflect their real meaning -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
