Class FastLeaderElection

java.lang.Object

org.apache.zookeeper.server.quorum.FastLeaderElection

All Implemented Interfaces:

Election

public class FastLeaderElection
extends java.lang.Object
implements Election

Implementation of leader election using TCP. It uses an object of the class QuorumCnxManager to manage connections. Otherwise, the algorithm is push-based as with the other UDP implementations. There are a few parameters that can be tuned to change its behavior. First, finalizeWait determines the amount of time to wait until deciding upon a leader. This is part of the leader election algorithm.

Constructor Detail

FastLeaderElection

public FastLeaderElection(QuorumPeer self,
                  QuorumCnxManager manager)

Constructor of FastLeaderElection. It takes two parameters, one is the QuorumPeer object that instantiated this object, and the other is the connection manager. Such an object should be created only once by each peer during an instance of the ZooKeeper service.

Parameters:

self - QuorumPeer that created this object

manager - Connection manager

Method Detail

getLogicalClock

public long getLogicalClock()

Returns the current vlue of the logical clock counter

getCnxManager

public QuorumCnxManager getCnxManager()

shutdown

public void shutdown()

Specified by:

shutdown in interface Election

totalOrderPredicate

protected boolean totalOrderPredicate(long newId,
                          long newZxid,
                          long newEpoch,
                          long curId,
                          long curZxid,
                          long curEpoch)

Check if a pair (server id, zxid) succeeds our current vote.

Parameters:

id - Server identifier

zxid - Last zxid observed by the issuer of this vote

lookForLeader

public Vote lookForLeader()
                   throws java.lang.InterruptedException

Starts a new round of leader election. Whenever our QuorumPeer changes its state to LOOKING, this method is invoked, and it sends notifications to all other peers.
