> The Persistent Cache feature brought the ability to recover the cache in the
> event of a restart or crash. Under certain conditions, the cache recovery can
> lead to _orphan_ blocks hanging on the cache, causing unnecessary extra cache
> usage.
> For example, when a region server crashes or restarts, the original regions
> on this region server would be immediately reassigned on the remaining
> servers. Once the crashed/restarted server comes back online, persistent
> cache will recover the cache state prior to the crash/restart, which would
> contain the blocks from the regions it was holding prior to the incident.
> This can lead to the _orphan_ blocks situation described above in the
> following conditions:
> * If balancer is off, or cache aware balancer fails to move back the very
> same regions from prior the crash;
> * If compaction completes for the regions on the temporary servers;
> Also, with the default evictsOnClose is set to false, any region move would
> leave "orphans" blocks behind.
> This proposes additional logic for identifying blocks not belonging to any
> files from current online regions inside BucketCache.freeSpace method.
> This would need to modify both BlockCacheFactory and BucketCache to pass
> along the map of online regions kept by HRegionServer.
> Inside BucketCache.freeSpace method, when iterating through the backingMap
> and before separating the entries between the different eviction priority
> groups, we can check if the given entry belongs to a block from any of the
> online regions files, using BucketCache.evictBucketEntryIfNoRpcReferenced
> method to remove it if its file is not found on any of the online regions.
> An additional configurable grace period should be added, to consider only
> blocks cached before this grace period as potentially orphans. This is to
> avoid evicting blocks from currently being written files by
> flushes/compactions, when “caching on write/caching on compaction” is enabled.
