This commit removes consume_in_reverse::legacy_half_reverse, an option
once used to indicate that the given key ranges are sorted descending,
based on the clustering key of the start of the range, and that the
range tombstones inside partition would be sorted (descending, as all
the mutation fragments would) according to their end (but range
tombstone would still be stored according to their start bound).
As it turns out, mutation::consume, when called with legacy_half_reverse
option produces invalid fragment stream, one where all the row
tombstone changes come after all the clustering rows. This was not an
issue, since when constructing results from the query, Scylla would not
pass the tombstones to the client, but instead compact data beforehand.
In this commit, the consume_in_reverse::legacy_half_reverse is removed,
along with all the uses.
As for the swap out in mutation_partition.cc in query_mutation and
to_data_query_result:
The downstream was not prepared to deal with legacy_half_reverse.
mutation::consume contains
```
if (reverse == consume_in_reverse::yes) {
while (!(stop_opt = consume_clustering_fragments<consume_in_reverse::yes>(_ptr->_schema, partition, consumer, cookie, is_preemptible::yes))) {
co_await yield();
}
} else {
while (!(stop_opt = consume_clustering_fragments<consume_in_reverse::no>(_ptr->_schema, partition, consumer, cookie, is_preemptible::yes))) {
co_await yield();
}
}
```
So why did it work at all? to_data_query_result deals with a single slice.
The used consumer (compact_for_query_v2) compacts-away the range tombstone
changes, and thus the only difference between the consume_in_reverse::no
and consume_in_reverse::yes was that one was ordered increasing wrt. ckeys
and the second one was ordered decreasing. This property is maintained if
we swap out for the consume_in_reverse::yes format.

ScyllaDB Documentation
This repository contains the source files for ScyllaDB Open Source documentation.
- The
devfolder contains developer-oriented documentation related to the ScyllaDB code base. It is not published and is only available via GitHub. - All other folders and files contain user-oriented documentation related to ScyllaDB Open Source and are sources for docs.scylladb.com.
To report a documentation bug or suggest an improvement, open an issue in GitHub issues for this project.
To contribute to the documentation, open a GitHub pull request.
Key Guidelines for Contributors
- Follow the ScyllaDB Style Guide.
- The user documentation is written in reStructuredText (RST) - a plaintext markup language similar to Markdown. If you're not familiar with RST, see ScyllaDB RST Examples.
- The developer documentation is written in Markdown. See Basic Markdown Syntax for reference.
Creating Knowledge Base Articles
The kb/ directory holds source files for knowledge base articles in the Knowledge Base section of the ScyllaDB documentation.
The kb/kb_common subdirectory contains a template for knowledge base articles to help you create new articles.
To create a new knowledge base article (KB):
- Copy the
kb-article-template.rstfile from/kb/kb_commonto/kband rename it with a unique name. - Open the new file and fill in the required information.
- Remove what is not needed.
- Run
make previewto build the docs and preview them locally. - Send a PR with "KB" in its title.
Building User Documentation
Prerequisites
- Python 3. Check your version with
$ python --version. - poetry 1.12 or later
- make
Mac OS X
You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.
You also need the standard utility make.
Check if you have these two items with the following commands:
brew help
make -h
Linux Distributions
Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.
Windows
Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.
Building the Docs
- Run
make previewto build the documentation. - Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.
Cleanup
You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:
make pristine

If you are interested in contributing to Scylla docs, please read the Scylla open source page at http://www.scylladb.com/opensource/ and complete a Scylla contributor agreement if needed. We can only accept documentation pull requests if we have a contributor agreement on file for you.
