memberlist GoDoc

memberlist is a Go library that manages cluster membership and member failure detection using a gossip based protocol.

The use cases for such a library are far-reaching: all distributed systems require membership, and memberlist is a re-usable solution to managing cluster membership and node failure detection.

memberlist is eventually consistent but converges quickly on average. The speed at which it converges can be heavily tuned via various knobs on the protocol. Node failures are detected and network partitions are partially tolerated by attempting to communicate to potentially dead nodes through multiple routes.

Building

If you wish to build memberlist you'll need Go version 1.2+ installed.

Please check your installation with:

go version

Usage

Memberlist is surprisingly simple to use. An example is shown below:

/* Create the initial memberlist from a safe configuration.
   Please reference the godoc for other default config types.
   http://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/memberlist#Config
*/
list, err := memberlist.Create(memberlist.DefaultLocalConfig())
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to create memberlist: " + err.Error())
}

// Join an existing cluster by specifying at least one known member.
n, err := list.Join([]string{"1.2.3.4"})
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to join cluster: " + err.Error())
}

// Ask for members of the cluster
for _, member := range list.Members() {
	fmt.Printf("Member: %s %s\n", member.Name, member.Addr)
}

// Continue doing whatever you need, memberlist will maintain membership
// information in the background. Delegates can be used for receiving
// events when members join or leave.

The most difficult part of memberlist is configuring it since it has many available knobs in order to tune state propagation delay and convergence times. Memberlist provides a default configuration that offers a good starting point, but errs on the side of caution, choosing values that are optimized for higher convergence at the cost of higher bandwidth usage.

For complete documentation, see the associated Godoc.

Protocol

memberlist is based on "SWIM: Scalable Weakly-consistent Infection-style Process Group Membership Protocol", with a few minor adaptations, mostly to increase propagation speed and convergence rate.

A high level overview of the memberlist protocol (based on SWIM) is described below, but for details please read the full SWIM paper followed by the memberlist source. We welcome any questions related to the protocol on our issue tracker.

Protocol Description

memberlist begins by joining an existing cluster or starting a new cluster. If starting a new cluster, additional nodes are expected to join it. New nodes in an existing cluster must be given the address of at least one existing member in order to join the cluster. The new member does a full state sync with the existing member over TCP and begins gossiping its existence to the cluster.

Gossip is done over UDP with a configurable but fixed fanout and interval. This ensures that network usage is constant with regards to number of nodes, as opposed to exponential growth that can occur with traditional heartbeat mechanisms. Complete state exchanges with a random node are done periodically over TCP, but much less often than gossip messages. This increases the likelihood that the membership list converges properly since the full state is exchanged and merged. The interval between full state exchanges is configurable or can be disabled entirely.

Failure detection is done by periodic random probing using a configurable interval. If the node fails to ack within a reasonable time (typically some multiple of RTT), then an indirect probe as well as a direct TCP probe are attempted. An indirect probe asks a configurable number of random nodes to probe the same node, in case there are network issues causing our own node to fail the probe. The direct TCP probe is used to help identify the common situation where networking is misconfigured to allow TCP but not UDP. Without the TCP probe, a UDP-isolated node would think all other nodes were suspect and could cause churn in the cluster when it attempts a TCP-based state exchange with another node. It is not desirable to operate with only TCP connectivity because convergence will be much slower, but it is enabled so that memberlist can detect this situation and alert operators.

If both our probe, the indirect probes, and the direct TCP probe fail within a configurable time, then the node is marked "suspicious" and this knowledge is gossiped to the cluster. A suspicious node is still considered a member of cluster. If the suspect member of the cluster does not dispute the suspicion within a configurable period of time, the node is finally considered dead, and this state is then gossiped to the cluster.

This is a brief and incomplete description of the protocol. For a better idea, please read the SWIM paper in its entirety, along with the memberlist source code.

Changes from SWIM

As mentioned earlier, the memberlist protocol is based on SWIM but includes minor changes, mostly to increase propagation speed and convergence rates.

The changes from SWIM are noted here:

  • memberlist does a full state sync over TCP periodically. SWIM only propagates changes over gossip. While both eventually reach convergence, the full state sync increases the likelihood that nodes are fully converged more quickly, at the expense of more bandwidth usage. This feature can be totally disabled if you wish.

  • memberlist has a dedicated gossip layer separate from the failure detection protocol. SWIM only piggybacks gossip messages on top of probe/ack messages. memberlist also piggybacks gossip messages on top of probe/ack messages, but also will periodically send out dedicated gossip messages on their own. This feature lets you have a higher gossip rate (for example once per 200ms) and a slower failure detection rate (such as once per second), resulting in overall faster convergence rates and data propagation speeds. This feature can be totally disabed as well, if you wish.

  • memberlist stores around the state of dead nodes for a set amount of time, so that when full syncs are requested, the requester also receives information about dead nodes. Because SWIM doesn't do full syncs, SWIM deletes dead node state immediately upon learning that the node is dead. This change again helps the cluster converge more quickly.

Functions

func LogAddress 

func LogAddress(addr net.Addr) string

func LogConn 

func LogConn(conn net.Conn) string

func ValidateKey 

func ValidateKey(key []byte) error

ValidateKey will check to see if the key is valid and returns an error if not.

key should be either 16, 24, or 32 bytes to select AES-128, AES-192, or AES-256.

Types

type AliveDelegate 

type AliveDelegate interface {
	// NotifyMerge is invoked when a merge could take place.
	// Provides a list of the nodes known by the peer. If
	// the return value is non-nil, the merge is canceled.
	NotifyAlive(peer *Node) error
}

AliveDelegate is used to involve a client in processing a node "alive" message. When a node joins, either through a UDP gossip or TCP push/pull, we update the state of that node via an alive message. This can be used to filter a node out and prevent it from being considered a peer using application specific logic.

type Broadcast 

type Broadcast interface {
	// Invalidates checks if enqueuing the current broadcast
	// invalidates a previous broadcast
	Invalidates(b Broadcast) bool

	// Returns a byte form of the message
	Message() []byte

	// Finished is invoked when the message will no longer
	// be broadcast, either due to invalidation or to the
	// transmit limit being reached
	Finished()
}

Broadcast is something that can be broadcasted via gossip to the memberlist cluster.

type ChannelEventDelegate 

type ChannelEventDelegate struct {
	Ch chan<- NodeEvent
}

ChannelEventDelegate is used to enable an application to receive events about joins and leaves over a channel instead of a direct function call.

Care must be taken that events are processed in a timely manner from the channel, since this delegate will block until an event can be sent.

func (*ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyJoin 

func (c *ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyJoin(n *Node)

func (*ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyLeave 

func (c *ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyLeave(n *Node)

func (*ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyUpdate 

func (c *ChannelEventDelegate) NotifyUpdate(n *Node)

type Config 

type Config struct {
	// The name of this node. This must be unique in the cluster.
	Name string

	// Transport is a hook for providing custom code to communicate with
	// other nodes. If this is left nil, then memberlist will by default
	// make a NetTransport using BindAddr and BindPort from this structure.
	Transport Transport

	// Configuration related to what address to bind to and ports to
	// listen on. The port is used for both UDP and TCP gossip. It is
	// assumed other nodes are running on this port, but they do not need
	// to.
	BindAddr string
	BindPort int

	// Configuration related to what address to advertise to other
	// cluster members. Used for nat traversal.
	AdvertiseAddr string
	AdvertisePort int

	// ProtocolVersion is the configured protocol version that we
	// will _speak_. This must be between ProtocolVersionMin and
	// ProtocolVersionMax.
	ProtocolVersion uint8

	// TCPTimeout is the timeout for establishing a stream connection with
	// a remote node for a full state sync, and for stream read and write
	// operations. This is a legacy name for backwards compatibility, but
	// should really be called StreamTimeout now that we have generalized
	// the transport.
	TCPTimeout time.Duration

	// IndirectChecks is the number of nodes that will be asked to perform
	// an indirect probe of a node in the case a direct probe fails. Memberlist
	// waits for an ack from any single indirect node, so increasing this
	// number will increase the likelihood that an indirect probe will succeed
	// at the expense of bandwidth.
	IndirectChecks int

	// RetransmitMult is the multiplier for the number of retransmissions
	// that are attempted for messages broadcasted over gossip. The actual
	// count of retransmissions is calculated using the formula:
	//
	//   Retransmits = RetransmitMult * log(N+1)
	//
	// This allows the retransmits to scale properly with cluster size. The
	// higher the multiplier, the more likely a failed broadcast is to converge
	// at the expense of increased bandwidth.
	RetransmitMult int

	// SuspicionMult is the multiplier for determining the time an
	// inaccessible node is considered suspect before declaring it dead.
	// The actual timeout is calculated using the formula:
	//
	//   SuspicionTimeout = SuspicionMult * log(N+1) * ProbeInterval
	//
	// This allows the timeout to scale properly with expected propagation
	// delay with a larger cluster size. The higher the multiplier, the longer
	// an inaccessible node is considered part of the cluster before declaring
	// it dead, giving that suspect node more time to refute if it is indeed
	// still alive.
	SuspicionMult int

	// SuspicionMaxTimeoutMult is the multiplier applied to the
	// SuspicionTimeout used as an upper bound on detection time. This max
	// timeout is calculated using the formula:
	//
	// SuspicionMaxTimeout = SuspicionMaxTimeoutMult * SuspicionTimeout
	//
	// If everything is working properly, confirmations from other nodes will
	// accelerate suspicion timers in a manner which will cause the timeout
	// to reach the base SuspicionTimeout before that elapses, so this value
	// will typically only come into play if a node is experiencing issues
	// communicating with other nodes. It should be set to a something fairly
	// large so that a node having problems will have a lot of chances to
	// recover before falsely declaring other nodes as failed, but short
	// enough for a legitimately isolated node to still make progress marking
	// nodes failed in a reasonable amount of time.
	SuspicionMaxTimeoutMult int

	// PushPullInterval is the interval between complete state syncs.
	// Complete state syncs are done with a single node over TCP and are
	// quite expensive relative to standard gossiped messages. Setting this
	// to zero will disable state push/pull syncs completely.
	//
	// Setting this interval lower (more frequent) will increase convergence
	// speeds across larger clusters at the expense of increased bandwidth
	// usage.
	PushPullInterval time.Duration

	// ProbeInterval and ProbeTimeout are used to configure probing
	// behavior for memberlist.
	//
	// ProbeInterval is the interval between random node probes. Setting
	// this lower (more frequent) will cause the memberlist cluster to detect
	// failed nodes more quickly at the expense of increased bandwidth usage.
	//
	// ProbeTimeout is the timeout to wait for an ack from a probed node
	// before assuming it is unhealthy. This should be set to 99-percentile
	// of RTT (round-trip time) on your network.
	ProbeInterval time.Duration
	ProbeTimeout  time.Duration

	// DisableTcpPings will turn off the fallback TCP pings that are attempted
	// if the direct UDP ping fails. These get pipelined along with the
	// indirect UDP pings.
	DisableTcpPings bool

	// AwarenessMaxMultiplier will increase the probe interval if the node
	// becomes aware that it might be degraded and not meeting the soft real
	// time requirements to reliably probe other nodes.
	AwarenessMaxMultiplier int

	// GossipInterval and GossipNodes are used to configure the gossip
	// behavior of memberlist.
	//
	// GossipInterval is the interval between sending messages that need
	// to be gossiped that haven't been able to piggyback on probing messages.
	// If this is set to zero, non-piggyback gossip is disabled. By lowering
	// this value (more frequent) gossip messages are propagated across
	// the cluster more quickly at the expense of increased bandwidth.
	//
	// GossipNodes is the number of random nodes to send gossip messages to
	// per GossipInterval. Increasing this number causes the gossip messages
	// to propagate across the cluster more quickly at the expense of
	// increased bandwidth.
	//
	// GossipToTheDeadTime is the interval after which a node has died that
	// we will still try to gossip to it. This gives it a chance to refute.
	GossipInterval      time.Duration
	GossipNodes         int
	GossipToTheDeadTime time.Duration

	// EnableCompression is used to control message compression. This can
	// be used to reduce bandwidth usage at the cost of slightly more CPU
	// utilization. This is only available starting at protocol version 1.
	EnableCompression bool

	// SecretKey is used to initialize the primary encryption key in a keyring.
	// The primary encryption key is the only key used to encrypt messages and
	// the first key used while attempting to decrypt messages. Providing a
	// value for this primary key will enable message-level encryption and

	// The value should be either 16, 24, or 32 bytes to select AES-128,

	UDPBufferSize int
}

func DefaultLANConfig 

func DefaultLANConfig() *Config

DefaultLANConfig returns a sane set of configurations for Memberlist. It uses the hostname as the node name, and otherwise sets very conservative values that are sane for most LAN environments. The default configuration errs on the side of caution, choosing values that are optimized for higher convergence at the cost of higher bandwidth usage. Regardless, these values are a good starting point when getting started with memberlist.

func DefaultLocalConfig 

func DefaultLocalConfig() *Config

DefaultLocalConfig works like DefaultConfig, however it returns a configuration that is optimized for a local loopback environments. The default configuration is still very conservative and errs on the side of caution.

func DefaultWANConfig 

func DefaultWANConfig() *Config

DefaultWANConfig works like DefaultConfig, however it returns a configuration that is optimized for most WAN environments. The default configuration is still very conservative and errs on the side of caution.

func (*Config) EncryptionEnabled 

func (c *Config) EncryptionEnabled() bool

Returns whether or not encryption is enabled

type ConflictDelegate 

type ConflictDelegate interface {
	// NotifyConflict is invoked when a name conflict is detected
	NotifyConflict(existing, other *Node)
}

ConflictDelegate is a used to inform a client that a node has attempted to join which would result in a name conflict. This happens if two clients are configured with the same name but different addresses.

type Delegate 

type Delegate interface {
	// NodeMeta is used to retrieve meta-data about the current node
	// when broadcasting an alive message. It's length is limited to
	// the given byte size. This metadata is available in the Node structure.
	NodeMeta(limit int) []byte

	// NotifyMsg is called when a user-data message is received.
	// Care should be taken that this method does not block, since doing
	// so would block the entire UDP packet receive loop. Additionally, the byte
	// slice may be modified after the call returns, so it should be copied if needed
	NotifyMsg([]byte)

	// GetBroadcasts is called when user data messages can be broadcast.
	// It can return a list of buffers to send. Each buffer should assume an
	// overhead as provided with a limit on the total byte size allowed.
	// The total byte size of the resulting data to send must not exceed
	// the limit. Care should be taken that this method does not block,
	// since doing so would block the entire UDP packet receive loop.
	GetBroadcasts(overhead, limit int) [][]byte

	// LocalState is used for a TCP Push/Pull. This is sent to
	// the remote side in addition to the membership information. Any
	// data can be sent here. See MergeRemoteState as well. The `join`
	// boolean indicates this is for a join instead of a push/pull.
	LocalState(join bool) []byte

	// MergeRemoteState is invoked after a TCP Push/Pull. This is the
	// state received from the remote side and is the result of the
	// remote side's LocalState call. The 'join'
	// boolean indicates this is for a join instead of a push/pull.
	MergeRemoteState(buf []byte, join bool)
}

Delegate is the interface that clients must implement if they want to hook into the gossip layer of Memberlist. All the methods must be thread-safe, as they can and generally will be called concurrently.

type EventDelegate 

type EventDelegate interface {
	// NotifyJoin is invoked when a node is detected to have joined.
	// The Node argument must not be modified.
	NotifyJoin(*Node)

	// NotifyLeave is invoked when a node is detected to have left.
	// The Node argument must not be modified.
	NotifyLeave(*Node)

	// NotifyUpdate is invoked when a node is detected to have
	// updated, usually involving the meta data. The Node argument
	// must not be modified.
	NotifyUpdate(*Node)
}

EventDelegate is a simpler delegate that is used only to receive notifications about members joining and leaving. The methods in this delegate may be called by multiple goroutines, but never concurrently. This allows you to reason about ordering.

type Keyring 

type Keyring struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func NewKeyring 

func NewKeyring(keys [][]byte, primaryKey []byte) (*Keyring, error)

NewKeyring constructs a new container for a set of encryption keys. The keyring contains all key data used internally by memberlist.

While creating a new keyring, you must do one of:

  • Omit keys and primary key, effectively disabling encryption
  • Pass a set of keys plus the primary key
  • Pass only a primary key

If only a primary key is passed, then it will be automatically added to the keyring. If creating a keyring with multiple keys, one key must be designated primary by passing it as the primaryKey. If the primaryKey does not exist in the list of secondary keys, it will be automatically added at position 0.

A key should be either 16, 24, or 32 bytes to select AES-128, AES-192, or AES-256.

func (*Keyring) AddKey 

func (k *Keyring) AddKey(key []byte) error

AddKey will install a new key on the ring. Adding a key to the ring will make it available for use in decryption. If the key already exists on the ring, this function will just return noop.

key should be either 16, 24, or 32 bytes to select AES-128, AES-192, or AES-256.

func (*Keyring) GetKeys 

func (k *Keyring) GetKeys() [][]byte

GetKeys returns the current set of keys on the ring.

func (*Keyring) GetPrimaryKey 

func (k *Keyring) GetPrimaryKey() (key []byte)

GetPrimaryKey returns the key on the ring at position 0. This is the key used for encrypting messages, and is the first key tried for decrypting messages.

func (*Keyring) RemoveKey 

func (k *Keyring) RemoveKey(key []byte) error

RemoveKey drops a key from the keyring. This will return an error if the key requested for removal is currently at position 0 (primary key).

func (*Keyring) UseKey 

func (k *Keyring) UseKey(key []byte) error

UseKey changes the key used to encrypt messages. This is the only key used to encrypt messages, so peers should know this key before this method is called.

type Memberlist 

type Memberlist struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func Create 

func Create(conf *Config) (*Memberlist, error)

Create will create a new Memberlist using the given configuration. This will not connect to any other node (see Join) yet, but will start all the listeners to allow other nodes to join this memberlist. After creating a Memberlist, the configuration given should not be modified by the user anymore.

func (*Memberlist) GetHealthScore 

func (m *Memberlist) GetHealthScore() int

GetHealthScore gives this instance's idea of how well it is meeting the soft real-time requirements of the protocol. Lower numbers are better, and zero means "totally healthy".

func (*Memberlist) Join 

func (m *Memberlist) Join(existing []string) (int, error)

Join is used to take an existing Memberlist and attempt to join a cluster by contacting all the given hosts and performing a state sync. Initially, the Memberlist only contains our own state, so doing this will cause remote nodes to become aware of the existence of this node, effectively joining the cluster.

This returns the number of hosts successfully contacted and an error if none could be reached. If an error is returned, the node did not successfully join the cluster.

func (*Memberlist) Leave 

func (m *Memberlist) Leave(timeout time.Duration) error

Leave will broadcast a leave message but will not shutdown the background listeners, meaning the node will continue participating in gossip and state updates.

This will block until the leave message is successfully broadcasted to a member of the cluster, if any exist or until a specified timeout is reached.

This method is safe to call multiple times, but must not be called after the cluster is already shut down.

func (*Memberlist) LocalNode 

func (m *Memberlist) LocalNode() *Node

LocalNode is used to return the local Node

func (*Memberlist) Members 

func (m *Memberlist) Members() []*Node

Members returns a list of all known live nodes. The node structures returned must not be modified. If you wish to modify a Node, make a copy first.

func (*Memberlist) NumMembers 

func (m *Memberlist) NumMembers() (alive int)

NumMembers returns the number of alive nodes currently known. Between the time of calling this and calling Members, the number of alive nodes may have changed, so this shouldn't be used to determine how many members will be returned by Members.

func (*Memberlist) Ping 

func (m *Memberlist) Ping(node string, addr net.Addr) (time.Duration, error)

Ping initiates a ping to the node with the specified name.

func (*Memberlist) ProtocolVersion 

func (m *Memberlist) ProtocolVersion() uint8

ProtocolVersion returns the protocol version currently in use by this memberlist.

func (*Memberlist) SendBestEffort 

func (m *Memberlist) SendBestEffort(to *Node, msg []byte) error

SendBestEffort uses the unreliable packet-oriented interface of the transport to target a user message at the given node (this does not use the gossip mechanism). The maximum size of the message depends on the configured UDPBufferSize for this memberlist instance.

func (*Memberlist) SendReliable 

func (m *Memberlist) SendReliable(to *Node, msg []byte) error

SendReliable uses the reliable stream-oriented interface of the transport to target a user message at the given node (this does not use the gossip mechanism). Delivery is guaranteed if no error is returned, and there is no limit on the size of the message.

func (*Memberlist) SendTo 

func (m *Memberlist) SendTo(to net.Addr, msg []byte) error

SendTo is deprecated in favor of SendBestEffort, which requires a node to target.

func (*Memberlist) SendToTCP 

func (m *Memberlist) SendToTCP(to *Node, msg []byte) error

SendToTCP is deprecated in favor of SendReliable.

func (*Memberlist) SendToUDP 

func (m *Memberlist) SendToUDP(to *Node, msg []byte) error

SendToUDP is deprecated in favor of SendBestEffort.

func (*Memberlist) Shutdown 

func (m *Memberlist) Shutdown() error

Shutdown will stop any background maintanence of network activity for this memberlist, causing it to appear "dead". A leave message will not be broadcasted prior, so the cluster being left will have to detect this node's shutdown using probing. If you wish to more gracefully exit the cluster, call Leave prior to shutting down.

This method is safe to call multiple times.

func (*Memberlist) UpdateNode 

func (m *Memberlist) UpdateNode(timeout time.Duration) error

UpdateNode is used to trigger re-advertising the local node. This is primarily used with a Delegate to support dynamic updates to the local meta data. This will block until the update message is successfully broadcasted to a member of the cluster, if any exist or until a specified timeout is reached.

type MergeDelegate 

type MergeDelegate interface {
	// NotifyMerge is invoked when a merge could take place.
	// Provides a list of the nodes known by the peer. If
	// the return value is non-nil, the merge is canceled.
	NotifyMerge(peers []*Node) error
}

MergeDelegate is used to involve a client in a potential cluster merge operation. Namely, when a node does a TCP push/pull (as part of a join), the delegate is involved and allowed to cancel the join based on custom logic. The merge delegate is NOT invoked as part of the push-pull anti-entropy.

type MockAddress 

type MockAddress struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

MockAddress is a wrapper which adds the net.Addr interface to our mock address scheme.

func (*MockAddress) Network 

func (a *MockAddress) Network() string

See net.Addr.

func (*MockAddress) String 

func (a *MockAddress) String() string

See net.Addr.

type MockNetwork 

type MockNetwork struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

MockNetwork is used as a factory that produces MockTransport instances which are uniquely addressed and wired up to talk to each other.

type Node 

type Node struct {
	Name string
	Addr net.IP
	Port uint16
	Meta []byte // Metadata from the delegate for this node.
	PMin uint8  // Minimum protocol version this understands
	PMax uint8  // Maximum protocol version this understands
	PCur uint8  // Current version node is speaking
	DMin uint8  // Min protocol version for the delegate to understand
	DMax uint8  // Max protocol version for the delegate to understand
	DCur uint8  // Current version delegate is speaking
}

Node represents a node in the cluster.

func (*Node) Address 

func (n *Node) Address() string

Address returns the host:port form of a node's address, suitable for use with a transport.

type NodeEvent 

type NodeEvent struct {
	Event NodeEventType
	Node  *Node
}

NodeEvent is a single event related to node activity in the memberlist. The Node member of this struct must not be directly modified. It is passed as a pointer to avoid unnecessary copies. If you wish to modify the node, make a copy first.

type NodeEventType 

type NodeEventType int

NodeEventType are the types of events that can be sent from the ChannelEventDelegate. 

const (
	NodeJoin NodeEventType = iota
	NodeLeave
	NodeUpdate
)

type Packet 

type Packet struct {
	// Buf has the raw contents of the packet.
	Buf []byte

	// From has the address of the peer. This is an actual net.Addr so we
	// can expose some concrete details about incoming packets.
	From net.Addr

	// Timestamp is the time when the packet was received. This should be
	// taken as close as possible to the actual receipt time to help make an
	// accurate RTT measurements during probes.
	Timestamp time.Time
}

Packet is used to provide some metadata about incoming packets from peers over a packet connection, as well as the packet payload.

type PingDelegate 

type PingDelegate interface {
	// AckPayload is invoked when an ack is being sent; the returned bytes will be appended to the ack
	AckPayload() []byte
	// NotifyPing is invoked when an ack for a ping is received
	NotifyPingComplete(other *Node, rtt time.Duration, payload []byte)
}

PingDelegate is used to notify an observer how long it took for a ping message to complete a round trip. It can also be used for writing arbitrary byte slices into ack messages. Note that in order to be meaningful for RTT estimates, this delegate does not apply to indirect pings, nor fallback pings sent over TCP.

type TransmitLimitedQueue 

type TransmitLimitedQueue struct {
	// NumNodes returns the number of nodes in the cluster. This is
	// used to determine the retransmit count, which is calculated
	// based on the log of this.
	NumNodes func() int

	// RetransmitMult is the multiplier used to determine the maximum
	// number of retransmissions attempted.
	RetransmitMult int

	sync.Mutex
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

TransmitLimitedQueue is used to queue messages to broadcast to the cluster (via gossip) but limits the number of transmits per message. It also prioritizes messages with lower transmit counts (hence newer messages).

func (*TransmitLimitedQueue) GetBroadcasts 

func (q *TransmitLimitedQueue) GetBroadcasts(overhead, limit int) [][]byte

GetBroadcasts is used to get a number of broadcasts, up to a byte limit and applying a per-message overhead as provided.

func (*TransmitLimitedQueue) NumQueued 

func (q *TransmitLimitedQueue) NumQueued() int

NumQueued returns the number of queued messages

func (*TransmitLimitedQueue) Prune 

func (q *TransmitLimitedQueue) Prune(maxRetain int)

Prune will retain the maxRetain latest messages, and the rest will be discarded. This can be used to prevent unbounded queue sizes

func (*TransmitLimitedQueue) QueueBroadcast 

func (q *TransmitLimitedQueue) QueueBroadcast(b Broadcast)

QueueBroadcast is used to enqueue a broadcast

func (*TransmitLimitedQueue) Reset 

func (q *TransmitLimitedQueue) Reset()

Reset clears all the queued messages

type Transport 

type Transport interface {
	// FinalAdvertiseAddr is given the user's configured values (which
	// might be empty) and returns the desired IP and port to advertise to
	// the rest of the cluster.
	FinalAdvertiseAddr(ip string, port int) (net.IP, int, error)

	// WriteTo is a packet-oriented interface that fires off the given
	// payload to the given address in a connectionless fashion. This should
	// return a time stamp that's as close as possible to when the packet
	// was transmitted to help make accurate RTT measurements during probes.
	//
	// This is similar to net.PacketConn, though we didn't want to expose
	// that full set of required methods to keep assumptions about the
	// underlying plumbing to a minimum. We also treat the address here as a
	// string, similar to Dial, so it's network neutral, so this usually is
	// in the form of "host:port".
	WriteTo(b []byte, addr string) (time.Time, error)

	// PacketCh returns a channel that can be read to receive incoming
	// packets from other peers. How this is set up for listening is left as
	// an exercise for the concrete transport implementations.
	PacketCh() <-chan *Packet

	// DialTimeout is used to create a connection that allows us to perform
	// two-way communication with a peer. This is generally more expensive
	// than packet connections so is used for more infrequent operations
	// such as anti-entropy or fallback probes if the packet-oriented probe
	// failed.
	DialTimeout(addr string, timeout time.Duration) (net.Conn, error)

	// StreamCh returns a channel that can be read to handle incoming stream
	// connections from other peers. How this is set up for listening is
	// left as an exercise for the concrete transport implementations.
	StreamCh() <-chan net.Conn

	// Shutdown is called when memberlist is shutting down; this gives the
	// transport a chance to clean up any listeners.
	Shutdown() error
}

Transport is used to abstract over communicating with other peers. The packet interface is assumed to be best-effort and the stream interface is assumed to be reliable.
