[sheepdog] [PATCH v4] sheep/cluster: add the distributed lock implemented by zookeeper for object-storage

Sun Dec 1 08:48:04 CET 2013


Implement the distributed lock by zookeeper (refer: http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/trunk/recipes.html)
The routine is:
        1. create a seq-ephemeral znode in lock directory (use lock-id as dir name)
        2. get smallest file path as owner of the lock; the other thread wait on a pthread_mutex_t (cluster_lock->wait)
        3. if owner of the lock release it (or the owner is killed by accident), zookeeper will
           trigger zk_watch() which will wake up all waiting threads to compete new owner of the lock

We use dlock_array to store pointers of cluster_locks in this sheep daemon so when receiving the event of ZOO_DELETED_EVENT
the program will wake up all waiters (in this sheep daemon) who is sleeping on the lock id and let them compete for new
owner.
dlock_array is just a normal array using lock-id as index, so imaging a scenario: two threads (A and B) in one sheep daemon
call zk_lock() for same lock-id, they will create two znodes in zookeeper but set dlock_array[lock_id] to only one of
them (for example, set to B). After that, when ZOO_DELETED_EVENT comes, the zk_waiter() will only wake up thread B and thread A
will sleep on '->wait' forever becuase no one could wakeup him.
We have two method to solve this problem:
	A. using more complicated structure instead of dlock_array to store both A and B 's lock handle.
	B. adding a lock to avoid A and B call zk_lock() in the same time.
We prefer method B because it also avoid creating too many files in a directory of zookeeper which will take too much pressure
on zookeeper server if the number of sheep deamons are huge. Therefore we add 'local_lock' in 'struct cluster_lock'.
