• FailureDetector实现了IFailureDetector, FailureDetectorMBean接口
• 这里定义的PHI_FACTOR为1.0 / Math.log(10.0)，而phiConvictThreshold默认为8；这里维护了arrivalSamples，即InetAddress及其ArrivalWindow的映射
• 其isAlive方法取的epState.isAlive()的值；其interpret方法调用ArrivalWindow.phi计算now值的phi，然后乘以PHI_FACTOR，如果大于phiConvictThreshold则会回调IFailureDetectionEventListener的convict方法

EndpointState

cassandra-3.11.4/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/gms/EndpointState.java

public class EndpointState
{
    protected static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(EndpointState.class);

    public final static IVersionedSerializer<EndpointState> serializer = new EndpointStateSerializer();

    private volatile HeartBeatState hbState;
    private final AtomicReference<Map<ApplicationState, VersionedValue>> applicationState;

    /* fields below do not get serialized */
    private volatile long updateTimestamp;
    private volatile boolean isAlive;

    public boolean isAlive()
    {
        return isAlive;
    }

    void markAlive()
    {
        isAlive = true;
    }

    void markDead()
    {
        isAlive = false;
    }

    //......
}
复制代码

• EndpointState的isAlive返回的是isAlive值，则markDead方法则会标记该值为false

ArrivalWindow

cassandra-3.11.4/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/gms/FailureDetector.java

    private final long MAX_INTERVAL_IN_NANO = getMaxInterval();

    ArrivalWindow(int size)
    {
        arrivalIntervals = new ArrayBackedBoundedStats(size);
    }

    private static long getMaxInterval()
    {
        String newvalue = System.getProperty("cassandra.fd_max_interval_ms");
        if (newvalue == null)
        {
            return FailureDetector.INITIAL_VALUE_NANOS;

            // We use a very large initial interval since the "right" average depends on the cluster size
            // and it's better to err high (false negatives, which will be corrected by waiting a bit longer)
            // than low (false positives, which cause "flapping").
            arrivalIntervals.add(FailureDetector.INITIAL_VALUE_NANOS);
        }
        tLast = value;
    }

    double mean()
    {
        return arrivalIntervals.mean();
    }

    // see CASSANDRA-2597 for an explanation of the math at work here.
    double phi(long tnow)
    {
        assert arrivalIntervals.mean() > 0 && tLast > 0; // should not be called before any samples arrive
        long t = tnow - tLast;
        lastReportedPhi = t / mean();
        return lastReportedPhi;
    }

    double getLastReportedPhi()
    {
        return lastReportedPhi;
    }

    public String toString()
    {
        return Arrays.toString(arrivalIntervals.getArrivalIntervals());
    }
}
复制代码

• ArrivalWindow使用ArrayBackedBoundedStats来存储arrivalIntervals值
• 其add方法是一个synchronized方法，它在tLast大于0且interArrivalTime小于等于MAX_INTERVAL_IN_NANO的时候才会执行arrivalIntervals.add(interArrivalTime)，如果tLast小于等于0则执行arrivalIntervals.add(FailureDetector.INITIAL_VALUE_NANOS)
• phi值采用了exponential distribution appropriate，即通过t / mean()来近似计算P(x <= t)

Although the original paper suggests that the distribution is approximated by the Gaussian distribution we found the Exponential Distribution to be a better approximation, because of the nature of the gossip channel and its impact on latency Regular message transmissions experiencing typical random jitter will follow a normal distribution, but since gossip messages from endpoint A to endpoint B are sent at random intervals, they likely make up a Poisson process, making the exponential distribution appropriate.

Gossiper

        epState.getHeartBeatState().forceHighestPossibleVersionUnsafe();
        markDead(endpoint, epState);
        FailureDetector.instance.forceConviction(endpoint);

    @VisibleForTesting
    public void markDead(InetAddress addr, EndpointState localState)

        if (logger.isTraceEnabled())
            logger.trace("Notified {}", subscribers);
    }

	//......
}
复制代码

• Gossiper实现了IFailureDetectionEventListener接口，其convict方法会获取endpointState，如果已经shutdown则执行markAsShutdown方法，否则执行markDead方法
• markAsShutdown方法会调用markDead方法，然后再调用FailureDetector.instance.forceConviction(endpoint)方法
• markDead方法则直接调用endpointState.markDead()方法，然后回调IEndpointStateChangeSubscriber的onDead方法

• Gossiper定义了start方法，该方法通过executor.scheduleWithFixedDelay创建了GossipTask的调度任务
• GossipTask的run方法会执行doGossipToLiveMember、maybeGossipToUnreachableMember，最后执行doStatusCheck方法
• doStatusCheck方法会遍历endpointStateMap中的InetAddress，对其执行FailureDetector.instance.interpret(endpoint)

小结

• IFailureDetector接口定义了isAlive、interpret、report、forceConviction、registerFailureDetectionEventListener、unregisterFailureDetectionEventListener方法
• FailureDetector实现了IFailureDetector, FailureDetectorMBean接口；其isAlive方法取的epState.isAlive()的值，EndpointState的isAlive返回的是isAlive值，则markDead方法则会标记该值为false；其interpret方法调用ArrivalWindow.phi计算now值的phi，然后乘以PHI_FACTOR，如果大于phiConvictThreshold则会回调IFailureDetectionEventListener的convict方法
• ArrivalWindow使用ArrayBackedBoundedStats来存储arrivalIntervals值；其add方法是一个synchronized方法，它在tLast大于0且interArrivalTime小于等于MAX_INTERVAL_IN_NANO的时候才会执行arrivalIntervals.add(interArrivalTime)，如果tLast小于等于0则执行arrivalIntervals.add(FailureDetector.INITIAL_VALUE_NANOS)；phi值采用了exponential distribution appropriate，即通过t / mean()来近似计算P(x <= t)
• Gossiper实现了IFailureDetectionEventListener接口，其convict方法会获取endpointState，如果已经shutdown则执行markAsShutdown方法，否则执行markDead方法；markAsShutdown方法会调用markDead方法，然后再调用FailureDetector.instance.forceConviction(endpoint)方法；markDead方法则直接调用endpointState.markDead()方法，然后回调IEndpointStateChangeSubscriber的onDead方法
• Gossiper定义了start方法，该方法通过executor.scheduleWithFixedDelay创建了GossipTask的调度任务；GossipTask的run方法会执行doGossipToLiveMember、maybeGossipToUnreachableMember，最后执行doStatusCheck方法；doStatusCheck方法会遍历endpointStateMap中的InetAddress，对其执行FailureDetector.instance.interpret(endpoint)
