Phil Yang commented on HBASE-15398:
-----------------------------------
I checked all filters we offer to users. There is no filter which will use
joinedHeap and hasFilterRow return false. So currently there is no filter will
be banned. For user-defined filters using joinedHeap, we may warn users must
return true in hasFilterRow to disable partial protocol to prevent being
banned?
Another option is we disable partial protocol directly when filter uses
joinedHeap since we will do this when hasFilterRow return true.
Which one is better? Or any other options?

> 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...
