> {{ShortReadRowProtection.moreContents()}} expects that by the time we get to that method, the global post-reconciliation counter was already applied to the current partition. However, sometimes it won’t get applied, and the global counter continues counting with {{rowInCurrentPartition}} value not reset from previous partition, which in the most obvious case would trigger the assertion we are observing - {{assert !postReconciliationCounter.isDoneForPartition();}}. In other cases it’s possible because of this lack of reset to query a node for too few extra rows, causing unnecessary SRP data requests.
> Why is the counter not always applied to the current partition?
> The merged {{PartitionIterator}} returned from {{DataResolver.resolve()}} has two transformations applied to it, in the following order:
> {{Filter}} - to purge non-live data from partitions, and to discard empty partitions altogether (except for Thrift)
> {{Counter}}, to count and stop iteration
> Problem is, {{Filter}} ’s {{applyToPartition()}} code that discards empty partitions ({{closeIfEmpty()}} method) would sometimes consume the iterator, triggering short read protection *before* {{Counter}} ’s {{applyToPartition()}} gets called and resets its {{rowInCurrentPartition}} sub-counter.
> We should not be consuming iterators until all transformations are applied to them. For transformations it means that they cannot consume iterators unless they are the last transformation on the stack.
> The linked branch fixes the problem by splitting {{Filter}} into two transformations. The original - {{Filter}} - that does filtering within partitions - and a separate {{EmptyPartitionsDiscarder}}, that discards empty partitions from {{PartitionIterators}}. Thus {{DataResolve.resolve()}}, when constructing its {{PartitionIterator}}, now does merge first, then applies {{Filter}}, then {{Counter}}, and only then, as its last (third) transformation - the {{EmptyPartitionsDiscarder}}. Being the last one applied, it’s legal for it to consume the iterator, and triggering {{moreContents()}} is now no longer a problem.
