public static final class HealthDiscoveryServiceGrpc.HealthDiscoveryServiceStub extends io.grpc.stub.AbstractStub<HealthDiscoveryServiceGrpc.HealthDiscoveryServiceStub>
HDS is Health Discovery Service. It compliments Envoy’s health checking service by designating this Envoy to be a healthchecker for a subset of hosts in the cluster. The status of these health checks will be reported to the management server, where it can be aggregated etc and redistributed back to Envoy through EDS.

1. Envoy starts up and if its can_healthcheck option in the static
bootstrap config is enabled, sends HealthCheckRequest to the management
server. It supplies its capabilities (which protocol it can health check
with, what zone it resides in, etc.).
2. In response to (1), the management server designates this Envoy as a
healthchecker to health check a subset of all upstream hosts for a given
cluster (for example upstream Host 1 and Host 2). It streams
HealthCheckSpecifier messages with cluster related configuration for all
clusters this Envoy is designated to health check. Subsequent
HealthCheckSpecifier message will be sent on changes to:
a. Endpoints to health checks
b. Per cluster configuration change
3. Envoy creates a health probe based on the HealthCheck config and sends
it to endpoint(ip:port) of Host 1 and 2. Based on the HealthCheck
configuration Envoy waits upon the arrival of the probe response and
looks at the content of the response to decide whether the endpoint is
healthy or not. If a response hasn't been received within the timeout
interval, the endpoint health status is considered TIMEOUT.
4. Envoy reports results back in an EndpointHealthResponse message.
Envoy streams responses as often as the interval configured by the
management server in HealthCheckSpecifier.
5. The management Server collects health statuses for all endpoints in the
cluster (for all clusters) and uses this information to construct
EndpointDiscoveryResponse messages.
6. Once Envoy has a list of upstream endpoints to send traffic to, it load
balances traffic to them without additional health checking. It may
use inline healthcheck (i.e. consider endpoint UNHEALTHY if connection
failed to a particular endpoint to account for health status propagation
delay between HDS and EDS).
By default, can_healthcheck is true. If can_healthcheck is false, Cluster
configuration may not contain HealthCheck message.
TODO(htuch): How is can_healthcheck communicated to CDS to ensure the above
invariant?
TODO(htuch): Add @amb67's diagram.
public void fetchHealthCheck(HealthCheckRequestOrEndpointHealthResponse request, io.grpc.stub.StreamObserver<HealthCheckSpecifier> responseObserver)
TODO(htuch): Unlike the gRPC version, there is no stream-based binding of request/response. Should we add an identifier to the HealthCheckSpecifier to bind with the response?
