[jira] [Updated] (CASSANDRA-15665) StreamManager should clearly differentiate between "initiator" and "receiver" sessions

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15665?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

ZhaoYang updated CASSANDRA-15665:
---------------------------------
    Test and Documentation Plan: CI pending: [https://circleci.com/workflow-run/896f8753-3b8a-47ed-959e-f2806ae3d052]
                         Status: Patch Available  (was: In Progress)

[Patch|https://github.com/jasonstack/cassandra/pull/10] on top of CASSANDRA-15666:

* Include {{isFollower}} flag into {{StreamMessageHeader}}. On the receiver side, it will use initiator session if message is sent by a follower or use follower session if message is sent by an initiator.
* Added a base method {{getOrCreateSession}} to {{StreamMessage}}:
** it throws unsupported operation by default
** {{StreamInitMessage}} will initialize a follower {{StreamResultFuture}}/{{StreamSession}}
** {{IncomingStreamMessage}} will just return the stream session taken from {{IncomingStreamMessage#serializer#deserialize}}

> {{StreamManager}} does currently a suboptimal job in differentiating between stream sessions (in form of {{StreamResultFuture}}) which have been either initiated or "received", for the following reasons:
> 1) Naming is IMO confusing: a "receiver" session could actually both send and receive files, so technically an initiator is also a receiver.
> 2) {{StreamManager#findSession()}}  assumes we should first looking into "initiator" sessions, then into "receiver" ones: this is a dangerous assumptions, in particular for test environments where the same process could work as both an initiator and a receiver.
> I would recommend the following changes:
> 1) Rename "receiver" with "follower" everywhere the former is used.
> 2) Introduce a new flag into {{StreamMessageHeader}} to signal if the message comes from an initiator or follower session, in order to correctly differentiate and look for sessions in {{StreamManager}}.
> While my arguments above might seem trivial, I believe they will improve clarity and save from potential bugs/headaches at testing time, and doing such changes now that we're revamping streaming for 4.0 seems the right time.
