Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-6579: ------------------------------------ Maybe change to an assert so that it still runs in the context of our test cases, but not in real clusters? > Unnecessary KV order check in StoreScanner > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HBASE-6579 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6579 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Lars Hofhansl > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.96.0, 0.94.2 > > > In StoreScanner.next(List<KeyValue>, int, String) I find this code: > {code} > // Check that the heap gives us KVs in an increasing order. > if (prevKV != null && comparator != null > && comparator.compare(prevKV, kv) > 0) { > throw new IOException("Key " + prevKV + " followed by a " + > "smaller key " + kv + " in cf " + store); > } > prevKV = kv; > {code} > So this checks for bugs in the HFiles or the scanner code. It needs to > compare each KVs with its predecessor. This seems unnecessary now, I propose > that we remove this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
