Motivation
Pipeline handlers are free to "take control" of input buffers if they have singular refcount - in particular to mutate their raw data if non-readonly via discarding of read bytes, etc.
However there are various places (primarily unit tests) where a wrapped byte-array buffer is passed in and the wrapped array is assumed not to change (used after the wrapped buffer is passed to EmbeddedChannel.writeInbound()). This invalid assumption could result in unexpected errors, such as those exposed by #8931.
Modifications
Anywhere that the data passed to writeInbound() might be used again, ensure that either:
- A copy is used rather than wrapping a shared byte array, or
- The buffer is otherwise protected from modification by making it read-only
For the tests, copying is preferred since it still allows the "mutating" optimizations to be exercised.
Results
Avoid possible errors when pipeline assumes it has full control of input buffer.
Motivation:
When initializing the AnnotatedSocketException in AbstractChannel, both
the cause and the stack trace are set, leaving a trailing "Caused By"
that is compressed when printing the trace.
Modification:
Don't include the stack trace in the exception, but leave it in the cause.
Result:
Clearer stack trace
Motivation
A small thread-safety bug was introduced during the internal
optimizations of ComponentByteBuf made a while back in #8437. When there
is a single component which was added as a slice,
internalNioBuffer(int,int) will currently return the unwrapped slice's
un-duplicated internal NIO buffer. This is not safe since it could be
modified concurrently with other usage of that parent buffer.
Modifications
Delegate internalNioBuffer to nioBuffer in this case, which returns a
duplicate. This matches what's done in derived buffers in general
(for the same reason). Add unit test.
Result
Fixed possible thread-safety bug
Motivations
-----------
Calling `copy()`, `duplicate()` or `replace()` on `FullBinaryMemcacheResponse`
or `FullBinaryMemcacheRequest` instances should copy status, opCode, etc.
that are defined in `AbstractBinaryMemcacheMessage`.
Modifications
-------------
- Modified duplicate, copy and replace methods in
DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheRequest and DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheResponse
to always copy metadata from parent classes.
- Unit tests verifying duplicate, copy and replace methods for
DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheRequest and DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheResponse
copy buffers and metadata as expected.
Result
------
Calling copy(), duplicate() or replace() methods on
DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheRequest or DefaultFullBinaryMemcacheResponse
produces valid copies with all expected metadata.
Fixes#9159
Motivation:
The current KQueueEventLoop implementation does not process concurrent domain socket channel registration/unregistration in the order they actual
happen since unregistration are delated by an event loop task scheduling. When a domain socket is closed, it's file descriptor might be reused
quickly and therefore trigger a new channel registration using the same descriptor.
Consequently the KQueueEventLoop#add(AbstractKQueueChannel) method will overwrite the current inactive channels having the same descriptor
and the delayed KQueueEventLoop#remove(AbstractKQueueChannel) will remove the active channel that replaced the inactive one.
As active channels are registered, events for this file descriptor won't be processed anymore and the channels will never be closed.
The same problem can also happen in EpollEventLoop. Beside this we also may never remove the AbstractEpollChannel from the internal map
when it is unregistered which will prevent it from be GC'ed
Modifications:
- Change logic of native KQueue and Epoll implementations to ensure we correctly handle the case of FD reuse
- Only try to update kevent / epoll if the Channel is still open (as otherwise it will be handled by kqueue / epoll itself)
- Correctly remove AbstractEpollChannel from internal map in all cases
- Make implementation of closeAll() consistent for Epoll and KQueueEventLoop
Result:
KQueue and Epoll native transports correctly handle FD reuse

Motivation:
When we added support for KeyManagerFactory we also allowed to disable it to make the change less risky. This was done years ago and so there is really no need to use the property anyway.
Unfortunally due a change in netty-tcnative it is even not supported anymore when using BoringSSL.
Modifications:
- Log an info message to tell users that 'io.netty.handler.ssl.openssl.useKeyManagerFactory' is deprecated when it is used
- Ignore 'io.netty.handler.ssl.openssl.useKeyManagerFactory' when BoringSSL is used.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9147.
Motivation
Direct buffers are normally preferred when interfacing with raw
sockets. Currently netty will only return direct io buffers (for reading
from a channel) when a platform has unsafe. However, this is
inconsistent with the write-side (filterOutboundMessage) where a direct
byte buffer will be returned if pooling is enabled. This means that
environments without unsafe (and no manual netty configurations) end up
with many pooled heap byte buffers for reading, many pooled direct byte
buffers for writing, and jdk pooled byte buffers (for reading).
Modifications
This commit modifies the AbstractByteBufAllocator to return a direct
byte buffer for io handling when the platform has unsafe or direct byte
buffers are pooled.
Result:
Use direct buffers when direct buffers are pooled for IO.
Motivation:
We should use the latest EA release when trying to compile with JDK13.
Modifications:
Update to latest release
Result:
Test with latest release on the CI
Motivation:
We should only try to use reflection to access default nameservers when using Java8 and lower as otherwise we will produce an Illegal reflective access warning like:
WARNING: Illegal reflective access by io.netty.resolver.dns.DefaultDnsServerAddressStreamProvider
Modifications:
Add Java version check before try to use reflective access.
Result:
No more warning when Java9+ is used.
Motivation:
OOME is occurred by increasing suppressedExceptions because other libraries call Throwable#addSuppressed. As we have no control over what other libraries do we need to ensure this can not lead to OOME.
Modifications:
Only use static instances of the Exceptions if we can either dissable addSuppressed or we run on java6.
Result:
Not possible to OOME because of addSuppressed. Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9151.
Motivation:
We did manually call HttpObjectDecoder.reset() in HttpObjectAggregator.handleOversizedMessage(...) which is incorrect and will prevent correct parsing of the next message.
Modifications:
- Remove call to HttpObjectDecoder.reset()
- Add unit test
Result:
Verify that we can correctly parse the next request after we rejected a request.
Motivation:
Sometimes DNS responses can be very large which mean they will not fit in a UDP packet. When this is happening the DNS server will set the TC flag (truncated flag) to tell the resolver that the response was truncated. When a truncated response was received we should allow to retry via TCP and use the received response (if possible) as a replacement for the truncated one.
See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7766.
Modifications:
- Add support for TCP fallback by allow to specify a socketChannelFactory / socketChannelType on the DnsNameResolverBuilder. If this is set to something different then null we will try to fallback to TCP.
- Add decoder / encoder for TCP
- Add unit tests
Result:
Support for TCP fallback as defined by https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7766 when using DnsNameResolver.
Motivation:
Depending on what OpenSSL library version we use / system property that is set we need to skip tests that use KeyManagerFactory.
Modifications:
Add missing assume checks for tests that use KeyManagerFactory.
Result:
All tests pass even if KeyManagerFactory is not supported
Motivation:
Clean the code , replace all logic that checks Null with the ObjectUtil utility class in bootstrap package
Modification:
Replace all logic that checks null with the ObjectUtil utility class
Result:
Less verbose code.
Motivation:
Previously, any 'relative' pipeline operations, such as
ctx.pipeline().replace(), .addBefore(), addAfter(), etc
would fail as the handler was not present in the pipeline.
Modification:
Used the pattern from ChannelInitializer when invoking configurePipeline().
Result:
Fixes#9131
Motivation
@xiaoheng1 reported incorrect behaviour of AsciiString.lastIndexOf in
#9099. Upon closer inspection it appears that it was never implemented
correctly and searches between the provided index and the end of the
string similar to indexOf(...), rather than between the provided index
and the beginning of the string as the javadoc states (and in line with
java.lang.String).
Modifications
Fix AsciiString.lastIndexOf implementation and corresponding unit tests
to behave the same as the equivalent String methods.
Result
Fixes#9099
* Fix incorrect behavior of ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf.getBytes(int,ByteBuffer)
Motivation
It currently will succeed when the destination is larger than the source
range, but the ByteBuf javadoc states this should be a failure, as is
the case with all the other implementations.
Modifications
- Fix logic to fail the bounds check in this case
- Remove explicit null check which isn't done in any equivalent method
- Add unit test
Result
More correct/consistent behaviour
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/9021 did apply some changes to filter out duplicates InetAddress when calling resolveAll(...) to mimic JDK behaviour. Unfortunally this also introduced a regression as we should not filter duplicates when the user explicit calls resolveAll(DnsQuestion).
Modifications:
- Only filter duplicates if resolveAll(String) is used
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes regressions introduces by https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/9021
Motivation:
As brought up in https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8998, JKS can be substantially faster than pkcs12, JDK's new default. Without an option to set the KeyStore type you must change the configuration of the entire JVM which is impractical.
Modification:
- Allow to specify KeyStore type
- Add test case
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8998.
Motivation:
075cf8c02e introduced a change to allow resolve(...) to notify as soon as the preferred record was resolved. This works great but we should also allow the user to configure that we want to do the same for resolveAll(...), which means we should be able to notify as soon as all records for a preferred record were resolved.
Modifications:
- Add a new DnsNameResolverBuilder method to allow configure this (use false as default to not change default behaviour)
- Add unit test
Result:
Be able to speed up resolving.
Motivation:
HttpHelloWorldServer example works incorrect for HTTP 1.1, the value of header connection is always set to close for each request.
Modification:
Correctly set header
Result:
Fixed HttpHelloWorldServerHandler for handling HTTP 1.0/1.1
Motivation:
An instance is always equal to itself. It makes sense to skip processing for this case, which isn't uncommon since `AsciiString` is often memoized within an application when used as HTTP header names.
Modification:
`contentEquals` methods first check for instance equality before doing processing.
Result:
`contentEquals` will be faster when comparing an instance with itself.
I couldn't find any unit tests for these methods, only the static version. Let me know if I should add something to `AsciiStringCharacterTest`.
Came up here:
https://github.com/line/armeria/pull/1731#discussion_r280396280
Motivation:
The current KQueueEventLoop implementation does not process concurrent domain socket channel registration/unregistration in the order they actual
happen since unregistration are delated by an event loop task scheduling. When a domain socket is closed, it's file descriptor might be reused
quickly and therefore trigger a new channel registration using the same descriptor.
Consequently the KQueueEventLoop#add(AbstractKQueueChannel) method will overwrite the current inactive channels having the same descriptor
and the delayed KQueueEventLoop#remove(AbstractKQueueChannel) will remove the active channel that replaced the inactive one.
As active channels are registered, events for this file descriptor won't be processed anymore and the channels will never be closed.
Modifications:
Change the logic of KQueueEventLoop#remove(AbstractKQueueChannel) channels so it will check channels equality prior removal.
Result:
KQueueEventLoop won't remove anymore active channels reusing a file descriptor.
Motivation:
While building netty-all we should always include all classes for native transports no matter if the native part can be build or not. This was it is easier to test locally with a installed snapshot of netty-all when the code that uses it does enable a specific native transport depending on if the native bits can be loaded or not.
Modifications:
Always include classes of native transports no matter on which platfrom we build. When a release is done we ensure we include the native bits by using the uber-staging profile.
Result:
Easier testing with netty-all snapshots.
Motivation:
Bootstrap allows you to set a localAddress for outbound TCP connections, either via the Bootstrap.localAddress(localAddress) or Bootstrap.connect(remoteAddress, localAddress) methods. This works well if you want to bind to just one IP address on an interface. Sometimes you want to bind to a specific address based on the resolved remote address which should be possible.
Modifications:
Add DynamicAddressConnectHandler and tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8940.
Motivation:
Subclasses of `OpenSslKeyMaterial` implement `ReferenceCounted`. This means that a new object should have an initial refcount of 1. An `OpenSslPrivateKey.OpenSslPrivateKeyMaterial` object shares its refcount with the enclosing `OpenSslPrivateKey` object. This means the enclosing object's refcount must be incremented by 1 when an instance of `OpenSslPrivateKey.OpenSslPrivateKeyMaterial` is created. Otherwise, when the key material object is `release()`-ed, the refcount on the enclosing object will drop to 0 while it is still in use.
Modification:
- Increment the refcount in the constructor of `OpenSslPrivateKey.OpenSslPrivateKeyMaterial`
- Ensure we also always release the native certificates as well.
Result:
Refcount is now correct.
Motivation:
SimpleChannelPool provides ability to provide custom callbacks/handlers
on major events such as "channel acquired", "channel created" and
"channel released". In the current implementation, when a request to
acquire a channel is made for the first time, the internal channel pool
creates the channel lazily. This triggers the "channel created" callback
but does not invoke the "channel acquired" callback. This is contrary to
caller expectations who assumes that "channel acquired" will be invoked
at the end of every successful acquire call. It also leads to an
inconsistent API experience where the acquired callback is sometimes
invoked and sometimes it isn't depending on wheather the internal
mechanism is creating a new channel or re-using an existing one.
Modifications:
Invoke acquired callback consistenly even when creating a new channel
and modify the tests to support this behaviour
Result:
Consistent experience for the caller of acquire API. Every time they
call the API, the acquired callback will be invoked.
Motivation:
Http2MultiplexCodec.DefaultHttp2StreamChannel currently only act on ClosedChannelException exceptions when checking for isAutoClose(). We should widen the scope here to IOException to be more consistent with AbstractChannel.
Modifications:
Replace instanceof ClosedChannelException with instanceof IOException
Result:
More consistent handling of isAutoClose()
Motivation:
When trying to use graalvm and build netty we currently fail because our build configuration is not compatible with it.
Modification:
- Skip plugins that are not supported when graal is used
- Correctly configure surefire plugin for graal so it not produces a NPE
Result:
We can build and test with graalvm.
Motivation:
GraalVM native images are a new way to deliver java applications. Netty is one of the most popular libraries however there are a few limitations that make it impossible to use with native images out of the box. Adding a few metadata (in specific modules will allow the compilation to success and produce working binaries)
Modification:
Added properties files in `META-INF` and substitutions classes (under `internal.svm`) will solve the compilation issues. The substitutions classes are not visible and do not have a public constructor so they are not visible to end users.
Result:
Fixes#8959
This fix is very conservative as it applies the minimum config required to build:
* pure netty servers
* vert.x applications
* grpc applications
The build is having trouble due to checkstyle which does not seem to be able to find the copyright notice on property files.
Motivation:
We should try to compile / test with graalvm as well.
Modifications:
Add docker-compose file for graalvm
Result:
Be able to also compile / test with graalvm
Motivation:
In GlobalEventExecutorTest we used Thread.sleep(...) which can produce flaky results (as seen on the CI). We should use another alternative during tests.
Modifications:
Replace Thread.sleep(...) with join()
Result:
No more flaky GlobalEventExecutor tests.
Motivation:
There were new releases of various Java versions.
Modifications:
Adjust used java versions of the latest releases and so use these on our CI
Result:
Use latest java versions on our CI.
Motivation:
While OpenSslPrivateKeyMethod.* should never return null we should still guard against it to prevent any possible segfault.
Modifications:
- Throw SignatureException if null is returned
- Add unit test
Result:
No segfault when user returns null.
Motivation:
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) always runs the GOAWAY and graceful close
logic. This coupling means that a user would have to override
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) to modify the behavior, and the
Http2FrameCodec and Http2MultiplexCodec are not extendable so you cannot
override at this layer. Ideally we can totally decouple the close(..) of the
transport and the GOAWAY graceful closure process completely, but to preserve
backwards compatibility we can add an opt-out option to decouple where the
application is responsible for sending a GOAWAY with error code equal to
NO_ERROR as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-6.8 in
order to initiate graceful close.
Modifications:
- Http2ConnectionHandler supports an additional boolean constructor argument to
opt out of close(..) going through the graceful close path.
- Http2FrameCodecBuilder and Http2MultiplexCodec expose
gracefulShutdownTimeoutMillis but do not hook them up properly. Since these
are already exposed we should hook them up and make sure the timeout is applied
properly.
- Http2ConnectionHandler's goAway(..) method from Http2LifecycleManager should
initiate the graceful closure process after writing a GOAWAY frame if the error
code is NO_ERROR. This means that writing a Http2GoAwayFrame from
Http2FrameCodec will initiate graceful close.
Result:
Http2ConnectionHandler#close(..) can now be decoupled from the graceful close
process, and immediately close the underlying transport if desired.
Motivation
The optimization in #8988 didn't correctly handle the specific case
where the channel hasDisconnect == false, and a
ChannelOutboundHandlerAdapter subclass overrides only the close(ctx,
promise) method without also overriding the disconnect(ctx, promise)
method.
Modifications
Adjust AbstractChannelHandler.disconnect(...) method to divert to
close(...) in !hasDisconnect case before computing target context for
the event.
Result
Fixes#9092
Motivation:
DefaultHeaders entries maintains two linked lists. 1 for overall insertion order
and 1 for "in bucket" order. DefaultHeaders#valueIterator removal (introduced in 1d9090aab2) only reliably
removes the entry from the overall insertion order, but may not remove from the
bucket unless the element is the first entry.
Modifications:
- DefaultHeaders$ValueIterator should track 2 elements behind the next entry so
that the single linked "in bucket" list can be patched up when removing the
previous entry.
Result:
More correct DefaultHeaders#valueIterator removal.
Motivation:
Http2FrameCodec currently fails the write promise associated with creating a
stream with a Http2NoMoreStreamIdsException. However this means the user code
will have to listen to all write futures in order to catch this scenario which
is the same as receiving a GOAWAY frame. We can also simulate receiving a GOAWAY
frame from our remote peer and that allows users to consolidate graceful close
logic in the GOAWAY processing.
Modifications:
- Http2FrameCodec should simulate a DefaultHttp2GoAwayFrame when trying to
create a stream but the stream IDs have been exhausted.
Result:
Applications can rely upon GOAWAY for graceful close processing instead of also
processing write futures.
Motivaiton:
DefaultHttp2ConnectionEncoder uses SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator to combine two
operations into a single future status. However it directly uses the
SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator object instead of using the newPromise() method
in one case. This may result in premature completion of the aggregated future.
Modifications:
- DefaultHttp2ConnectionEncoder to use
SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator#newPromise() instead of directly using the
SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator instance when writing the settings ACK frame
Result:
More correct status for the SETTING ACK frame writing when auto settings ACK is
disabled.
Motivation:
The HTTP/2 codec will synchronously respond to a SETTINGS frame with a SETTINGS
ACK before the application sees the SETTINGS frame. The application may need to
adjust its state depending upon what is in the SETTINGS frame before applying
the remote settings and responding with an ACK (e.g. to adjust for max
concurrent streams). In order to accomplish this the HTTP/2 codec should allow
for the application to opt-in to sending the SETTINGS ACK.
Modifications:
- DefaultHttp2ConnectionDecoder should support a mode where SETTINGS frames can
be queued instead of immediately applying and ACKing.
- DefaultHttp2ConnectionEncoder should attempt to poll from the queue (if it
exists) to apply the earliest received but not yet ACKed SETTINGS frame.
- AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder (and sub classes) should support a new
option to enable the application to opt-in to managing SETTINGS ACK.
Result:
HTTP/2 allows for asynchronous SETTINGS ACK managed by the application.
Motivation:
SmtpRequestEncoderTest#testThrowsIfContentExpected has a ByteBuf leak.
Modifications:
- SmtpRequestEncoderTest#testThrowsIfContentExpected should release buffers in a finally block
Result:
No more leaks in SmtpRequestEncoderTest#testThrowsIfContentExpected.
Motivation
These aren't needed, only one field from each class is used. It also showed as an ambiguous identifier compilation error in my IDE even though javac is obviously fine with it.
Modifications
Static-import explicit ChannelOption fields in EpollDomainSocketChannelConfig instead of using .* wildcard.
Result
Cleaner / more consistent code.
Motivation:
1f93bd3 introduced a regression that could lead to not have the lastAccessed field correctly null'ed out when the endOffset of the internal Component == CompositeByteBuf.readerIndex()
Modifications:
- Correctly null out the lastAccessed field in any case
- Add unit tests
Result:
Fixes regression in CompositeByteBuf.discard*ReadBytes()
Motivation:
We should only try to use OpenSslX509TrustManagerWrapper when using Java 7+ as otherwise it fail to init in it's static block as X509ExtendedTrustManager was only introduced in Java7
Modifications:
Only call OpenSslX509TrustManagerWrapper if we use Java7+
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9064.
