Possible issues

[clicx]

I have done the following testing:

1. I applied one log item to three nodes, and persisted.
2. delete persist data from one node (not leader) and start raft (other nodes keep alive).
3. raft log will not be applied for this node, there is some log on this node:
   raft: AE no log at prev_idx 1
   send: {"myid": 1, "message_type": "append_entries_response", "term": 1, "success": 0, "current_idx": 0, "first_idx": 2}

Then it will be loopback forever.

Is here problem? Because current node has no entry, ety always null therefor cause endless loop

/* Not the first appendentries we've received /
/ NOTE: the log starts at 1 /
if (0 < ae->prev_log_idx)
{
raft_entry_t ety = raft_get_entry_from_idx(me_, ae->prev_log_idx);

    /* 2. Reply false if log doesn't contain an entry at prevLogIndex
       whose term matches prevLogTerm (§5.3) */
    if (!ety)
    {
        __log(me_, node, "AE no log at prev_idx %d", ae->prev_log_idx);
        goto out;
    }
