User reported an issue that after a node restart, the restarted node
is marked as DOWN by other nodes in the cluster while the node is up
and running normally.
Consier the following:
- n1, n2, n3 in the cluster
- n3 shutdown itself
- n3 send shutdown verb to n1 and n2
- n1 and n2 set n3 in SHUTDOWN status and force the heartbeat version to
INT_MAX
- n3 restarts
- n3 sends gossip shadow rounds to n1 and n2, in
storage_service::prepare_to_join,
- n3 receives response from n1, in gossiper::handle_ack_msg, since
_enabled = false and _in_shadow_round == false, n3 will apply the
application state in fiber1, filber 1 finishes faster filber 2, it
sets _in_shadow_round = false
- n3 receives response from n2, in gossiper::handle_ack_msg, since
_enabled = false and _in_shadow_round == false, n3 will apply the
application state in fiber2, filber 2 yields
- n3 finishes the shadow round and continues
- n3 resets gossip endpoint_state_map with
gossiper.reset_endpoint_state_map()
- n3 resumes fiber 2, apply application state about n3 into
endpoint_state_map, at this point endpoint_state_map contains
information including n3 itself from n2.
- n3 calls gossiper.start_gossiping(generation_number, app_states, ...)
with new generation number generated correctly in
storage_service::prepare_to_join, but in
maybe_initialize_local_state(generation_nbr), it will not set new
generation and heartbeat if the endpoint_state_map contains itself
- n3 continues with the old generation and heartbeat learned in fiber 2
- n3 continues the gossip loop, in gossiper::run,
hbs.update_heart_beat() the heartbeat is set to the number starting
from 0.
- n1 and n2 will not get update from n3 because they use the same
generation number but n1 and n2 has larger heartbeat version
- n1 and n2 will mark n3 as down even if n3 is alive.
To fix, always use the the new generation number.
