[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-14004) [Replication] Inconsistency between Memstore and WAL may result in data in remote cluster that is not in the origin

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14004?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Duo Zhang updated HBASE-14004:
------------------------------
    Attachment: HBASE-14004.patch

Finally done... The hierarchy of replication implementation is too complicate...

The solution is simple, just introduce a WALFileLengthProvider to get the length of a wal file if it is being written.

> Looks like the current write path can cause inconsistency between memstore/hfile and WAL which cause the slave cluster has more data than the master cluster.
> The simplified write path looks like:
> 1. insert record into Memstore
> 2. write record to WAL
> 3. sync WAL
> 4. rollback Memstore if 3 fails
> It's possible that the HDFS sync RPC call fails, but the data is already  (may partially) transported to the DNs which finally get persisted. As a result, the handler will rollback the Memstore and the later flushed HFile will also skip this record.
