The KafkaChannel and ExpiringCredentialRefreshingLogin classes can easily retrieve the ClientChannelCredentialTracker instance and tell it when various events of interest occur (a channel is initially authenticated, a credential is refreshed, a channel is closeddisconnected).  The events are enqueued as they are reported, and a background thread processes them to decide which KafkaChannel instances need to re-authenticate.  There is a method KafkaChannel.initiateReauthentication(Time) that instantiates an instance of SaslClientAuthenticator and tells it to re-authenticate via the method SaslClientAuthenticator.initiateReauthentication(Time, AuthenticationSuccessOrFailureReceiver).  The implementation of AuthenticationSuccessOrFailureReceiver that is sent looks something like this:

Code Block
languagejava
titleAuthenticationSuccessOrFailureReceiver
new AuthenticationSuccessOrFailureReceiver() {
    @Override
    public void reauthenticationFailed(RetryIndication retry, String errorMessage) {
        log.warn(errorMessage);
        Utils.closeQuietly(notYetAuthenticatedAuthenticator, "notYetAuthenticatedAuthenticator");
        notYetAuthenticatedAuthenticator = null;
        clientChannelCredentialTracker.offer(ClientChannelCredentialEvent
                .channelFailedReauthentication(time, KafkaChannel.this, errorMessage, retry));
    }

    @Override
    public void reauthenticationSucceeded() {
        clientChannelCredentialTracker.offer(ClientChannelCredentialEvent
                .channelReauthenticated(time, KafkaChannel.this, notYetAuthenticatedSaslClientAuthenticator
                    .expiringCredential());
        replaceAnyPreviouslyAuthenticatedAuthenticatorWithNewOne();
        return;
    }
}
