runzhiwang commented on RATIS-840:
----------------------------------
{quote}There may be a bug but the correct fix is not to pollute SenderList
since the bug is not in SenderList. I am fine to add the stop call
outside.{quote}
I agree with you. I will change the patch.
{quote}As long as GrpcLogAppender could stop, it can be infinitely restarted.
We don't have to wait until it becomes dead.{quote}
For this problem if wait old GrpcLogAppender becomes dead, the GrpcLogAppender
will not restart infinitely. Because stop old GrpcLogAppender called before
log.close, if old GrpcLogAppender also dead before log.close. Then old
GrpcLogAppender has no change to throw exception when log.close, because it
has dead, then GrpcLogAppender will not restart infinitely.
For other problem, such as the exception was not caused by log.close, to avoid
restart infinitely, I add the condition server.isAlive().
If exist better solution, please share me, and I will change the patch.

> *Why
> [LeaderState::restartSender|https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/LeaderState.java#L428]
> so many times ?*
> 1. As the image shows, when remove group, SegmentedRaftLog will close, then
> GrpcLogAppender throw exception when find the SegmentedRaftLog was closed.
> Then GrpcLogAppender will be
> [restarted|https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/LogAppender.java#L94],
> and the new GrpcLogAppender throw exception again when find the
> SegmentedRaftLog was closed, then GrpcLogAppender will be restarted again ...
> . It results in an infinite restart of GrpcLogAppender.
> 2. Actually, when remove group, GrpcLogAppender will be stoped:
> RaftServerImpl::shutdown ->
> [RoleInfo::shutdownLeaderState|https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/RaftServerImpl.java#L266]
> -> LeaderState::stop -> LogAppender::stopAppender, then SegmentedRaftLog
> will be closed: RaftServerImpl::shutdown ->
> [ServerState:close|https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/RaftServerImpl.java#L271]
> ... . Though RoleInfo::shutdownLeaderState called before ServerState:close,
> but the GrpcLogAppender was stopped asynchronously. So infinite restart of
> GrpcLogAppender happens, when GrpcLogAppender stop after SegmentedRaftLog
> close.
> !screenshot-1.png!
> *Why GrpcLogAppender did not stop the Daemon Thread when removed from senders
> ?*
> I find a lot of GrpcLogAppender blocked inside logs4j. I think it's
> GrpcLogAppender restart too fast, then blocked in logs4j.
> !screenshot-2.png!
> *Can the new GrpcLogAppender work normally ?*
> 1. Even though without the above problem, the new created GrpcLogAppender
> still can not work normally.
> 2. When creat a new GrpcLogAppender, a new FollowerInfo will also be created:
> LeaderState::addAndStartSenders ->
> LeaderState::addSenders->RaftServerImpl::newLogAppender -> [new
> FollowerInfo|https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/RaftServerImpl.java#L129]
> 3. When the new created GrpcLogAppender append entry to follower, then the
> follower response SUCCESS.
> 4. Then LeaderState::updateCommit -> [LeaderState::getMajorityMin |
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/LeaderState.java#L599]
> ->
> [voterLists.get(0) |
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-ratis/blob/master/ratis-server/src/main/java/org/apache/ratis/server/impl/LeaderState.java#L607].
> {color:#DE350B}Error happens because voterLists.get(0) return the
> FollowerInfo of the old GrpcLogAppender, not the FollowerInfo of the new
> GrpcLogAppender. {color}
> 5. Because the majority commit got from the FollowerInfo of the old
> GrpcLogAppender never changes. So even though follower has append entry
> successfully, the leader can not update commit. So the new created
> GrpcLogAppender can never work normally.
> 6. The reason of unit test of runTestRestartLogAppender can pass is that it
> did not stop the old GrpcLogAppender, and the old GrpcLogAppender append
> entry to follower, not the new GrpcLogAppender. If stop the old
> GrpcLogAppender, runTestRestartLogAppender will fail.
