Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-16095:
----------------------------------------

Well, it's not really similar, there are three groups of fixed priority as you 
mention (smile), as opposed to, potentially, more. 

Let me clarify my 'This makes sense IMHO.' above as a +1. The approach here 
follows current practice with an incremental change. I would like to see us 
move to a different approach but that is not the problem you want to solve and 
I won't insist on Y for X.


> Add priority to TableDescriptor and priority region open thread pool

> This is in the similar area with HBASE-15816, and also required with the 
> current secondary indexing for Phoenix. 
> The problem with P secondary indexes is that data table regions depend on 
> index regions to be able to make progress. Possible distributed deadlocks can 
> be prevented via custom RpcScheduler + RpcController configuration via 
> HBASE-11048 and PHOENIX-938. However, region opening also has the same 
> deadlock situation, because data region open has to replay the WAL edits to 
> the index regions. There is only 1 thread pool to open regions with 3 workers 
> by default. So if the cluster is recovering / restarting from scratch, the 
> deadlock happens because some index regions cannot be opened due to them 
> being in the same queue waiting for data regions to open (which waits for  
> RPC'ing to index regions which is not open). This is reproduced in almost all 
> Phoenix secondary index clusters (mutable table w/o transactions) that we 
> see. 
> The proposal is to have a "high priority" region opening thread pool, and 
> have the HTD carry the relative priority of a table. This maybe useful for 
> other "framework" level tables from Phoenix, Tephra, Trafodian, etc if they 
> want some specific tables to become online faster. 
> As a follow up patch, we can also take a look at how this priority 
> information can be used by the rpc scheduler on the server side or rpc 
> controller on the client side, so that we do not have to set priorities 
> manually per-operation.
