Description
The way Omid currently filters through it's own RegionScanner won't work the way it's implemented (i.e. the way the filtering is done after the next call). The reason is that the state of HBase filters get messed up since these filters will start to see cells that it shouldn't (i.e. cells that would be filtered based on snapshot isolation). It cannot be worked around by manually running filters afterwards because filters may issue seek calls which are handled during the running of scans by HBase.
Instead, the filtering needs to be implemented as a pure HBase filter and that filter needs to delegate to the other, delegate filter once it's determined that the cell is visible. See Tephra's TransactionVisibilityFilter and they way it calls the delegate filter (cellFilters) only after it's determined that the cell is visible. You may run into TEPHRA-169 without including the CellSkipFilter too.
Because it'll be easier if you see shadow cells before their corresponding real cells you can prefix instead of suffix the column qualifiers to guarantee that you'd see the shadow cells prior to the actual cells. Or you could buffer cells in your filter prior to omitting them. Another issue would be if the shadow cells aren't found and you need to consult the commit table - I suppose if the shadow cells are first, this logic would be easier to know when it needs to be called.
To reproduce, see the Phoenix unit tests FlappingTransactionIT.testInflightUpdateNotSeen() and testInflightDeleteNotSeen().
