ramkrishna.s.vasudevan commented on HBASE-19468:
------------------------------------------------
bq.So this list size will keep on growing when it is a write only load? Missing
some thing?
When there is a StoreScanner created it means there is a read operation started
right? Otherwise why there will be a storeScanner? So for the life time of a
read operation this StoreScanner is valid. If it is pure write only workload
then there is no StoreScanner.
> FNFE during scans and flushes

> Key: HBASE-19468
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19468
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: regionserver, Scanners
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Reporter: Thiruvel Thirumoolan
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.0.0, 1.4.1, 1.5.0, 1.3.3
>
>
> We see FNFE exceptions on our 1.3 clusters when scans and flushes happen at
> the same time. This causes regionserver to throw a UnknownScannerException
> and client retries.
> This happens during the following sequence:
> 1. Scanner open, client fetched some rows from regionserver and working on it
> 2. Flush happens and storeScanner is updated with flushed files
> (StoreScanner.updateReaders())
> 3. Compaction discharger runs and cleans up the newly flushed file as we
> don't have new scanners on it yet.
> 4. Client issues scan.next and during StoreScanner.resetScannerStack(), we
> get a FNFE. RegionServer throws a UnknownScannerThe client retries in 1.3.
> With branch-1.4, the scan fails with a DoNotRetryIOException.
> [~ram_krish], My proposal is to increment the reader count during
> updateReaders() and decrement it during resetScannerStack(), so discharger
> doesn't clean it up. Scan lease expiries also have to be taken care of. Am I
> missing anything? Is there a better approach?
