URL: https://github.com/apache/phoenix/pull/1736#issuecomment-1897974489

   Offset is broken, without paging. Offset maintains row count at server side 
in memory and increments it until offset is reached, so even if we restrict 
dummy processing until offset is reached, it can still cause issues with valid 
row.
   e.g. rows are scanned until offset is reached and then we return valid row, 
and then region moves. Now when scan is resumed on moved region, row count 
state is lost and it is reset to 0 to begin with. This can easily lead to data 
integrity issues for offset because the expected behavior in this case is to 
resume scanning rows considering row count is already at offset.
   
   I am working on fixing this.

> HBase scanner interface expects server to perform scan of the cells from 
> HFile or Block cache and return consistent data i.e. rowkey of the cells 
> returned should stay in the range of the scan boundaries. When a region moves 
> and scanner needs reset, or if the current row is too large and the server 
> returns partial row, the subsequent scanner#next is supposed to return 
> remaining cells. When this happens, cell rowkeys returned by servers i.e. any 
> coprocessors is expected to be in the scan boundary range so that server can 
> reliably perform its validation and return remaining cells as expected.
> Phoenix client initiates serial or parallel scans from the aggregators based 
> on the region boundaries and the scan boundaries are sometimes adjusted based 
> on where optimizer provided key ranges, to include tenant boundaries, salt 
> boundaries etc. After the client opens the scanner and performs scan 
> operation, some of the coprocs return invalid rowkey for the following cases:
>  # Grouped aggregate queries
>  # Some Ungrouped aggregate queries
>  # Offset queries
>  # Dummy cells returned with empty rowkey
>  # Update statistics queries
>  # Uncovered Index queries
>  # Ordered results at server side
>  # ORDER BY DESC on rowkey
>  # Global Index read-repair
>  # Paging region scanner with HBase scanner reopen
>  # ORDER BY on non-pk column(s) with/without paging
>  # GROUP BY on non-pk column(s) with/without paging
> Since many of these cases return reserved rowkeys, they are likely not going 
> to match scan or region boundaries. It has potential to cause data integrity 
> issues in certain scenarios as explained above. Empty rowkey returned by 
> server can be treated as end of the region scan by HBase client.
> With the paging feature enabled, if the page size is kept low, we have higher 
> chances of scanners returning dummy cell, resulting in increased num of RPC 
> calls for better latency and timeouts. We should return only valid rowkey in 
> the scan range for all the cases where we perform above mentioned operations 
> like complex aggregate or offset queries etc.
