SzyWilliam opened a new pull request, #730: URL: https://github.com/apache/ratis/pull/730
## What changes were proposed in this pull request? Add the heartbeat broadcast mechanism in LeaderState. When a leader is requested for current readIndex, it should first confirm its authority by broadcasting heartbeats and receiving majority acknowledgements. If the leadership is confirmed, the readIndex can be safely returned. In this PR I propose to add the broadcast mechanism and use it to implement readIndex request. ## What is the link to the Apache JIRA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RATIS-1643 Please replace this section with the link to the Apache JIRA) ## How was this patch tested? this patch should be tested when Read request using ReadIndex Option is implemented. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
