This allows avoiding re-creating connections unnecessarily. For
NameResolvers that support notifications this avoids stampeding herds
when possible, since all clients may receive the notification at
approximately the same time.
Each time helper.updatePicker() is called, the Channel will re-process
all pending streams with the new picker. If the old picker is
equivalent to the old one, it's wasteful.
This is also needed to make our internal integration test easier.
Because the load-balancer may send address list that is identical to the
previous one, just to update the TTL. Without this change, new picker
replaces the old picker even if they carry the same list, which
effectively resets the round-robin pointer. This causes a little
imbalance between test backends, resulting in test failure.
Resolves#2716
- Add attributes to EquivalentAddressGroup
- Deprecate ResolvedServerInfoGroup by EquivalentAddressGroup
- Deprecate ResolvedServerInfo, because attributes for a single address
with an address group is not found to be useful.
- The changes on the NameResolver and LoadBalancer interfaces are backward-compatible
in the next release, with which implementors can switch to the new API smoothly.
As a related change, redefine the semantics of DnsNameResolver and
RoundRobinLoadBalancer:
- Before: DnsNameResolver returns all addresses in one address group.
RoundRobinLoadBalancer ignores the grouping of addresses and
round-robin on every single addresses. It doesn't work well with the
one-server-multiple-address setup, e.g., both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
are returned for a single serve, even if they are put in the same
address group by the NameResolver.
- After: DnsNameResolver returns every address in its own
EAG. RoundRobinLoadBalancer takes an EAG as a whole, and only
round-robin on the list of EAGs. The new behavior is a better
interpretation of the EAGs, and really allows the case where one
server has more than one addresses (e.g., IPv4 and IPv6).
This change will affect users that use custom LoadBalancer with the
stock DnsNameResolver, and those who use custom NameResolver with the
stock RoundRobinLoadBalancer.
Users who use both the stock DnsNameResolver and RoundRobinLoadBalancer
or PickFirstBalancer will see no behavioral change. Because they will
still round-robin on individual addresses from DNS, or do pick-first on
all addresses from DNS (PickFirstBalancer flattens all addresses).
The result is a simpler API and reduction of boilderplates.
The balancer service attaches a token string for each Server entry it
sends to the client. The client has to set the token to the "lb-token"
header when assigning that Server entry to an RPC.
For convenience of testing, also implemented hashCode() and equals() for
PickResult.
Besides API changes, this implementation is also up-to-date with the
latest design:
1. Delegate to round-robin and pick-first policies if requested by
the naming system.
2. OOB channels to LoadBalancer always use the LB authority provided by
the naming system.
3. Never send application RPCs to balancer addresses, even if the
address returns UNIMPLEMENTED error.

Instead of `List<List<ResolvedServerInfo>>`, `onUpdate` now takes
`List<ResolvedServerInfoGroup>` as an argument and every `ResolvedServerInfoGroup`
object can have `Attributes` attached to it which means that we can provide
attributes on each level:
* root level via `onUpdate` argument (applies to all servers)
* group level via property of `ResolvedServerInfoGroup` (applies to all servers
in the group)
* host level via property of `ResolvedServerInfo` (applies to a single server)
partially resolving #1469
The added option for java_plugin `enable_deprecated` is `true` by default in `java_plugin.cpp`, so the generated code for `TestService.java` (`compiler/build.gradle` not setting this option) has all deprecated interfaces and static bindService method.
`./build.gradle` and `examples/build.gradle` set this option explicitly to `false`, so all the other generated classes do not have deprecated code.
Will set `enable_deprecated` to `false` by default in future PR when we are ready.
first step to address issue #1469:
- leave and deprecate interfaces in codegen
- introduce `ServiceImplBase`,
- `AbstractService` is deprecated and extends `ServiceImplBase`
- static `bindService()` is deprecated
This allows us to play with zero-copy and proto3 support for lite.
Unfortunately, it introduced some warnings, so deprecated warnings are
now ignored for benchmarks and interop-testing.
This reverts commit 3df1446deb.
The commit was adding to the difficulty of integration for testing. By
itself it isn't bad, so this is a temporary revert until the many other
commits are absorbed and then it will be reapplied.
This does have a manual edit for ClientCallsTest.
