Part 2B

We want Raft to keep a consistent, replicated log of operations. A call to Start() at the leader starts the process of adding a new operation to the log; the leader sends the new operation to the other servers in AppendEntries RPCs.我们希望Raft保持一致的、复制日志的操作。在leader处调用Start()将启动向日志添加新操作的过程;leader将新操作发送到附录条目rpc中的其他服务器。

Implement the leader and follower code to append new log entries. This will involve implementing Start(), completing the AppendEntries RPC structs, sending them, fleshing out the AppendEntry RPC handler, and advancing the commitIndex at the leader. Your first goal should be to pass the TestBasicAgree2B() test (in test_test.go). Once you have that working, you should get all the 2B tests to pass (go test -run 2B).

  • You will need to implement the election restriction (section 5.4.1 in the paper).实现选举限制:如果日志不是新的,不给投票
  • One way to fail the early Lab 2B tests is to hold un-needed elections, that is, an election even though the current leader is alive and can talk to all peers. This can prevent agreement in situations where the tester believes agreement is possible. Bugs in election timer management, or not sending out heartbeats immediately after winning an election, can cause un-needed elections.不必要的选举可能导致2b测试的过早失败
  • You may need to write code that waits for certain events to occur. Do not write loops that execute continuously without pausing, since that will slow your implementation enough that it fails tests. You can wait efficiently with Go's channels, or Go's condition variables, or (if all else fails) by inserting a time.Sleep(10 * time.Millisecond) in each loop iteration.
  • Give yourself time to rewrite your implementation in light of lessons learned about structuring concurrent code. In later labs you'll thank yourself for having Raft code that's as clear and clean as possible. For ideas, you can re-visit our structurelocking and guide, pages.

The tests for upcoming labs may fail your code if it runs too slowly. You can check how much real time and CPU time your solution uses with the time command. Here's some typical output for Lab 2B:

$ time go test -run 2B

Test (2B): basic agreement ...

... Passed --   0.5  5   28    3

Test (2B): agreement despite follower disconnection ...

... Passed --   3.9  3   69    7

Test (2B): no agreement if too many followers disconnect ...

... Passed --   3.5  5  144    4

Test (2B): concurrent Start()s ...

... Passed --   0.7  3   12    6

Test (2B): rejoin of partitioned leader ...

... Passed --   4.3  3  106    4

Test (2B): leader backs up quickly over incorrect follower logs ...

... Passed --  23.0  5 1302  102

Test (2B): RPC counts aren't too high ...

... Passed --   2.2  3   30   12

PASS

ok      raft    38.029s

real    0m38.511s

user    0m1.460s

sys     0m0.901s

$

The "ok raft 38.029s" means that Go measured the time taken for the 2B tests to be 38.029 seconds of real (wall-clock) time. The "user 0m1.460s" means that the code consumed 1.460 seconds of CPU time, or time spent actually executing instructions (rather than waiting or sleeping). If your solution uses much more than a minute of real time for the 2B tests, or much more than 5 seconds of CPU time, you may run into trouble later on. Look for time spent sleeping or waiting for RPC timeouts, loops that run without sleeping or waiting for conditions or channel messages, or large numbers of RPCs sent.

Be sure you pass the 2A and 2B tests before submitting Part 2B.
