If a user upgrades etcd from 2.3.x to 3.0 and shutdown the
cluster immediately without triggering any new backend writes,
then the consistent index in backend would be zero.
The user cannot restart etcdserver due to today's strick index
match checking. We now have to lose this a bit for this case.
When using the embed functionality, you can't call the Server.Stop()
function until StartEtcd returns, which can block until there is a call
to Server.Stop() in error situations. Since we have a catch-22, the
ReadyNotify() can be called manually by the user if they wish to wait
for the server startup, or in parallel with a timeout if they wish to
cancel it after some time.
Chzz pointed out that this is also more consistent with the
etcdserver.Start() behaviour too.
purpleidea pointed out that this is actually more correct too, because
we can now register the stop interrupt handler before we block on
startup.
After winning an election or obtaining a lock, we
auto-append a slash after the provided key prefix.
This avoids the previous deadlock due to waiting
on the wrong key.
Fixes#6278
Previously, the checkQuorum flag required an election timeout to
expire before a node could cast its first vote. This change permits
the node to cast a vote at any time when the leader is not known,
including immediately after startup.
the get func was calling path's Join and clean method which is already
being in internalGet(nodePath) func. Hence the func was getting called
unnecessarily twice which is not needed.
#6295
Windows requires this lock to be released before the directory is
renamed. But on unix-like operating systems, releasing the lock and
trying to reacquire it immediately can be flaky if a process is forked
around the same time. The file descriptors are marked as close-on-exec
by the Go runtime, but there is a window between the fork and exec where
another process will be holding the lock.
Whenever the WAL is opened for writes, it should write zeroes to its tail
starting from the first zero record. Otherwise, if there are entries past
the first zero record due to a torn write, any new writes that overlap the
old entries will lead to a garbage record on the tail and cause a CRC
mismatch.
