X-Git-Url: https://git.rkrishnan.org/vdrive/%22file:/frontends/%22doc.html/reliability?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f9e261d939412e279a7bc34fc631e923230c153a;p=tahoe-lafs%2Ftahoe-lafs.git introducer.py: accelerate reconnection after being offline. Closes #374. When we establish any new connection, reset the delays on all the other Reconnectors. This will trigger a new batch of connection attempts. The idea is to detect when we (the client) have been offline for a while, and to connect to all servers when we get back online. By accelerating the timers inside the Reconnectors, we try to avoid spending a long time in a partially-connected state (which increases the chances of causing problems with mutable files, by not updating all the shares that we ought to). --- diff --git a/src/allmydata/introducer.py b/src/allmydata/introducer.py index 4968d997..6b55a406 100644 --- a/src/allmydata/introducer.py +++ b/src/allmydata/introducer.py @@ -169,6 +169,8 @@ class RemoteServiceConnector: self.remote_host = None self._ic.remove_connection(self._nodeid, self.service_name, rref) + def reset(self): + self._reconnector.reset() class IntroducerClient(service.Service, Referenceable): @@ -305,6 +307,15 @@ class IntroducerClient(service.Service, Referenceable): def add_connection(self, nodeid, service_name, rref): self._connections.add( (nodeid, service_name, rref) ) self.counter += 1 + # when one connection is established, reset the timers on all others, + # to trigger a reconnection attempt in one second.
