Allan Yang commented on HBASE-17506:
------------------------------------
{quote}
there will not be different nonce inside a single WALEntry. Nonce is by RPC
request. WALEntry is a subparticle of an rpc request.
{quote}
If there is no different nonce inside a single WALEntry, then we can remove
those code. Those code is only used in replay mode(region replica or log replay)
> started mvcc transaction is not completed in branch-1

> Key: HBASE-17506
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-17506
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Allan Yang
> Assignee: Allan Yang
>
> In {{doMiniBatchMutation}}, if it is in replay and if the the nonce of the
> mutation is different, we append them to a different wal. But, after
> HBASE-14465, we start a mvcc transition in the ringbuffer's append thread.
> So, every time we append a wal entry, we started a mvcc transition, but we
> didn't complete the mvcc transition anywhere. This can block other transition
> of this region.
> {code}
> // txid should always increase, so having the one from the last call is ok.
> // we use HLogKey here instead of WALKey directly to support legacy
> coprocessors.
> walKey = new
> ReplayHLogKey(this.getRegionInfo().getEncodedNameAsBytes(),
> this.htableDescriptor.getTableName(), now, m.getClusterIds(),
> currentNonceGroup, currentNonce, mvcc);
> txid = this.wal.append(this.htableDescriptor,
> this.getRegionInfo(), walKey,
> walEdit, true);
> walEdit = new WALEdit(cellCount, isInReplay);
> walKey = null;
> {code}
> Looked at master branch, there is no such problem. It has a method
> named{{appendCurrentNonces}} :
> {code}
> private void appendCurrentNonces(final Mutation mutation, final boolean
> replay,
> final WALEdit walEdit, final long now, final long currentNonceGroup,
> final long currentNonce)
> throws IOException {
> if (walEdit.isEmpty()) return;
> if (!replay) throw new IOException("Multiple nonces per batch and not in
> replay");
> WALKey walKey = new WALKey(this.getRegionInfo().getEncodedNameAsBytes(),
> this.htableDescriptor.getTableName(), now, mutation.getClusterIds(),
> currentNonceGroup, currentNonce, mvcc, this.getReplicationScope());
> this.wal.append(this.getRegionInfo(), walKey, walEdit, true);
> // Complete the mvcc transaction started down in append else it will
> block others
> this.mvcc.complete(walKey.getWriteEntry());
> }
> {code}
> Yes, the easiest way to fix branch-1 is to complete the writeEntry like
> master branch do. But is it really fine to do this?
> 1. :
> complete the mvcc transition before waiting sync will create a disturbance of
> data visibility.
> 2.:
> In what circumstance will there be different nonce and nonce group in a
> single wal entry? Nonce are used in append/increment. But in {{batchMuate}}
> ,we treat them differently and append one wal entry for each of them. So I
> think no test can reach this code path, that maybe why no one has found this
> bug(Please tell me if I'm wrong).
