Phil Yang commented on HBASE-15398:
-----------------------------------
I find if I add a client-side logic to judge if joinedHeap will have families,
it will break TestScanEarlyTermination and TestVisibilityLabelsWithACL, because
we need getTableDescriptor at client side and may have no permission. We may
can only throw an exception at server when user setAllowPartailResults &&
joinedHeap!=null?
And for same reason, I can only sort each time in createCompleteResult.
Any ideas?

> In RegionScannerImpl, we have two heaps, storeHeap and joinedHeap. If we have
> a filter and it doesn't apply to all cf, the stores whose families needn't be
> filtered will be in joinedHeap. We scan storeHeap first, then joinedHeap,
> and merge the results and sort and return to client. We need sort because the
> order of Cell is rowkey/cf/cq/ts and a smaller cf may be in the joinedHeap.
> However, after HBASE-11544 we may transfer partial results when we get
> SIZE_LIMIT_REACHED_MID_ROW or other similar states. We may return a larger cf
> first because it is in storeHeap and then a smaller cf because it is in
> joinedHeap. Server won't hold all cells in a row and client doesn't have a
> sorting logic. The order of cf in Result for user is wrong.
> And a more critical bug is, if we get a LIMIT_REACHED_MID_ROW on the last
> cell of a row in storeHeap, we will break scanning in RegionScannerImpl and
> in populateResult we will change the state to SIZE_LIMIT_REACHED because next
> peeked cell is next row. But this is only the last cell of one and we have
> two... And SIZE_LIMIT_REACHED means this Result is not partial (by
> ScannerContext.partialResultFormed), client will see it and merge them and
> return to user with losing data of joinedHeap. On next scan we will read next
> row of storeHeap and joinedHeap is forgotten and never be read...
