The patchset implements Raft. It does not have any tests, nor passes the
existing tests, but should be close to a future pushable version.

The last commit will be split into more patches, and partially squashed into the
previous commits. But it is not expected to change it significantly.

Branch: http://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/tree/gh-1146-raft
Issue: https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/issues/1146

Vladislav Shpilevoy (7):
  applier: store instance_id in struct applier
  box: introduce summary RO flag
  wal: don't touch box.cfg.wal_dir more than once
  raft: introduce persistent raft state
  raft: introduce box.cfg.raft_* options
  [tosquash] raft: pass source instance_id to raft_process_msg()
  raft: state machine

sergepetrenko (1):
  raft: relay status updates to followers

Applier is going to need its numeric ID in order to tell the
future Raft module who is a sender of a Raft message. An
alternative would be to add sender ID to each Raft message, but
this looks like a crutch. Moreover, applier still needs to know
its numeric ID in order to notify Raft about heartbeats from the
peer node.

An instance is writable if box.cfg.read_only is false, and it is
not orphan. Update of the final read-only state of the instance
needs to fire read-only update triggers, and notify the engines.
These 2 flags were easy and cheap to check on each operation, and
the triggers were easy to use since both flags are stored and
updated inside box.cc.

That is going to change when Raft is introduced. Raft will add 2
more checks:

  - A flag if Raft is enabled on the node. If it is not, then Raft
    state won't affect whether the instance is writable;

  - When Raft is enabled, it will allow writes on a leader only.

It means a check for being read-only would look like this:

    is_ro || is_orphan || (raft_is_enabled() && !raft_is_leader())

This is significantly slower. Besides, Raft somehow needs to
access the read-only triggers and engine API - this looks wrong.

The patch introduces a new flag is_ro_summary. The flag
incorporates all the read-only conditions into one flag. When some
subsystem may change read-only state of the instance, it needs to
call box_update_ro_summary(), and the function takes care of
updating the summary flag, running the triggers, and notifying the
engines.

Raft will use this function when its state or config will change.

Relay.cc and box.cc obtained box.cfg.wal_dir value using
cfg_gets() call. To initialize WAL and create struct recovery
objects.

That is not only a bit dangerous (cfg_gets() uses Lua API and can
throw a Lua error) and slow, but also not necessary - wal_dir
parameter is constant, it can't be changed after instance start.

It means, the value can be stored somewhere one time and then used
without Lua.

Main motivation is that the WAL directory path will be needed
inside relay threads to restart their recovery iterators in the
Raft patch. They can't use cfg_gets(), because Lua lives in TX
thread. But can access a constant global variable, introduced in
this patch (it existed before, but now has a method to get it).

the persistency. Any state change is saved into WAL and into
snapshot.

                   ` (3 subsequent siblings)
  8 siblings, 0 replies; 10+ messages in thread
From: Vladislav Shpilevoy @ 2020-09-02 23:33 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: tarantool-patches, sergepetrenko, gorcunov

The new options are:

- raft_is_enabled - enable/disable Raft. When disabled, the node
  is supposed to work like if Raft does not exist. Like earlier;

- raft_is_candidate - a flag whether the instance can try to
  become a leader. Note, it can vote for other nodes regardless of
  value of this option;

- raft_election_timeout - how long need to wait until election
  end, in seconds.

The options don't do anything now. They are added separately in
order to keep such mundane changes from the main Raft commit, to
simplify its review.

Part of #1146

From: Vladislav Shpilevoy @ 2020-09-02 23:33 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: tarantool-patches, sergepetrenko, gorcunov

From: sergepetrenko <sergepetrenko@tarantool.org>

The patch introduces a new type of system message used to notify the
followers of the instance's raft status updates.
It's relay's responsibility to deliver the new system rows to its peers.
The notification system reuses and extends the same row type used to
persist raft state in WAL and snapshot.

Instance ID of the sender is needed in order to

- be able to vote for him;
- be able to remember its ID as leader ID, when it is a leader.

First look at Raft state machine implementation.

The commit is a draft. It does not contain any tests, and
unlikely passes the existing tests. But gives a picture of where
Raft is going.

The first helper functions about new vote and new term were removed. Perhaps the
term bump will return as something like box.internal.raft_new_term() for the
tests, but vote should be controlled by Raft completely.

+/**
+ * This is an implementation of Raft leader election protocol, separated from
+ * synchronous replication part.
+ *
+ * The protocol describes an algorithm which helps to elect a single leader in
+ * the cluster, which is supposed to handle write requests. And re-elect a new
+ * leader, when the current leader dies.
+ *
+ * The implementation follows the protocol to the letter except a few important
+ * details.
+ *
+ * Firstly, the original Raft assumes, that all nodes share the same log record
+ * numbers. In Tarantool they are called LSNs. But in case of Tarantool each
+ * node has its own LSN in its own component of vclock. That makes the election
+ * messages a bit heavier, because the nodes need to send and compare complete
+ * vclocks of each other instead of a single number like in the original Raft.
+ * But logic becomes simpler. Because in the original Raft there is a problem of
+ * uncertainty about what to do with records of an old leader right after a new
+ * leader is elected. They could be rolled back or confirmed depending on
+ * circumstances. The issue disappears when vclock is used.
+ *
+ * Secondly, leader election works differently during cluster bootstrap, until
+ * number of bootstrapped replicas becomes >= election quorum. That arises from

It feels the comment is still not detailed enough. It looks suspiciously small
for such a big feature. Would be nice if anyone could add anything. I will add
more info later, if something will come into mind.
