> We are seeing an issue with paging reads missing some small number of columns when we do paging/limit reads. We get this on a single DC cluster itself when both reads and writes are happening with QUORUM. Paging/limit reads see this issue. I have attached the ccm based script which reproduces the problem.
> * Keyspace RF - 3
> * Table (id int, course text, marks int, primary key(id, course))
> * replicas for partition key 1 - r1, r2 and r3
> * insert (1, '1', 1) ,  (1, '2', 2),  (1, '3', 3),  (1, '4', 4),  (1, '5', 5) - succeeded on all 3 replicas
> * insert (1, '6', 6) succeeded on r1 and r3, failed on r2
> * delete (1, '2'), (1, '3'), (1, '4'), (1, '5') succeeded on r1 and r2, failed on r3
> * insert (1, '7', 7) succeeded on r1 and r2, failed on r3
> Local data on 3 nodes looks like as below now
> r1: (1, '1', 1), tombstone(2-5 records), (1, '6', 6), (1, '7', 7)
> r2: (1, '1', 1), tombstone(2-5 records), (1, '7', 7)
> r3: (1, '1', 1),  (1, '2', 2),  (1, '3', 3),  (1, '4', 4),  (1, '5', 5), (1, '6', 6)
> If we do a paging read with page_size 2, and if it gets data from r2 and r3, then it will only get the data (1, '1', 1) and (1, '7', 7) skipping record 6. This problem would happen if the same query is not doing paging but limit set to 2 records.
> Resolution code for reads works same for paging queries and normal queries. Co-ordinator shouldn't respond back to client with records/columns that it didn't have complete visibility on all required replicas (in this case 2 replicas). In above case, it is sending back record (1, '7', 7) back to client, but its visibility on r3 is limited up to (1, '2', 2) and it is relying on just r2 data to assume (1, '6', 6) doesn't exist, which is wrong. End of the resolution all it can conclusively say any thing about is (1, '1', 1), which exists and (1, '2', 2), which is deleted.
> Ideally we should have different resolution implementation for paging/limit queries.
> We could reproduce this on 2.0.17, 2.1.16 and 3.0.9.
> Seems like 3.0.9 we have ShortReadProtection transformation on list queries. I assume that is to protect against the cases like above. But, we can reproduce the issue in 3.0.9 as well.
