Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-18864:
---------------------------------------
Alternatively, write_HWM should always be set to that which corresponds
txn_HWM, rather than explicitly marking it 'open'.
> WriteId high water mark (HWM) is incorrect if ValidWriteIdList is obtained
> after allocating writeId by current transaction.

> For multi-statement txns, it is possible that write on a table happens after
> a read. Let's see the below scenario.
> # Committed txn=9 writes on table T1 with writeId=5.
> # Open txn=10. ValidTxnList(open:null, txn_HWM=10),
> # Read table T1 from txn=10. ValidWriteIdList(open:null, write_HWM=5).
> # Open txn=11, writes on table T1 with writeid=6.
> # Read table T1 from txn=10. ValidWriteIdList(open:null, write_HWM=5).
> # Write table T1 from txn=10 with writeId=7.
> # Read table T1 from txn=10. {color:#d04437}*ValidWriteIdList(open:null,
> write_HWM=7)*. – This read will able to see rows added by txn=11 which is
> still open.{color}
> {color:#d04437}So, it is needed to rebuild the open/aborted list of
> ValidWriteIdList based on txn_HWM. Any writeId allocated by txnId > txn_HWM
> should be marked as open.{color}
> {color:#333333}{color:#d04437}cc{color}{color}
