Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5512: -------------------------------------- @Anoop: Good observation :) (As I said I just needed to store the partial patch somewhere). @Ram: Sure. Would you prefer to continue to work on this? Also see last comment on HBASE-2038. Not entirely sure how much mileage we get from this. > Add support for INCLUDE_AND_SEEK_USING_HINT > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5512 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5512 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Zhihong Yu > Assignee: Lars Hofhansl > Attachments: 5512.txt > > > This came up from HBASE-2038 > From Anoop: > - What we wanted from the filter is include a row and then seek to the next > row which we are interested in. I cant see such a facility with our Filter > right now. Correct me if I am wrong. So suppose we already seeked to one row > and this need to be included in the result, then the Filter should return > INCLUDE. Then when the next next() call happens, then only we can return a > SEEK_USING_HINT. So one extra row reading is needed. This might create even > one unwanted HFileBlock fetch (who knows). > Can we add reseek() at higher level? > From Lars: > Yep, for that we'd need to add INCLUDE_AND_SEEK_USING_HINT (similar to the > INCLUDE_AND_SEEK_NEXT_ROW that we already have). Shouldn't be hard to add, > I'm happy to do that, if that's the route we want to go with this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
