Motivation:
Systems depending on Netty may benefit (telemetry, alternative even loop scheduling algorithms) from knowing the number of channels assigned to each EventLoop.
Modification:
Expose the number of channels registered in the EventLoop via SingleThreadEventLoop.registeredChannels.
Result:
Fixes#8276.
Motivation:
com.puppycrawl.tools checkstyle < 8.18 was reported to contain a possible security flaw. We should upgrade.
Modifications:
- Upgrade netty-build and checkstyle.
- Fix checkstyle errors
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8968.
Motivation:
We have multiple places where we store the exception that was produced by a callback in ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine, and so have a lot of code-duplication.
Modifications:
- Consolidate code into a package-private method that is called from the callbacks if needed
Result:
Less code-duplication and cleaner code.
Motivation:
We can just use a local variable in HttpUploadServerHandler and so make the example code a bit cleaner.
Modifications:
Use local variable.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8892.
Motivation:
BoringSSL supports offloading certificate validation to a different thread. This is useful as it may need to do blocking operations and so may block the EventLoop.
Modification:
- Adjust ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine to correctly handle offloaded certificate validation (just as we already have code for certificate selection).
Result:
Be able to offload certificate validation when using BoringSSL.
Motivation:
BoringSSL supports offloading certificate validation to a different thread. This is useful as it may need to do blocking operations and so may block the EventLoop.
Modification:
- Adjust ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine to correctly handle offloaded certificate validation (just as we already have code for certificate selection).
Result:
Be able to offload certificate validation when using BoringSSL.
Motivation:
We had a bug which could case ExtendedSSLSession.getPeerSupportedSignatureAlgorithms() return an empty array when using BoringSSL. This testcase verifies we correctly return algorithms after the fix in https://github.com/netty/netty-tcnative/pull/449.
Modifications:
Add testcase to verify behaviour.
Result:
Ensure we correctly retuen the algorithms.
Motivation:
We recently changed the docker config to use adoptjdk builds but missed to include the docker-sync related files.
Modifications:
Use adoptjdk there as well.
Result:
More conistent usage of JDK versions.
Motivation:
e9ce5048df added a testcase to ensure we correctly send the alert in all cases but did use a too strict message matching which did not work for BoringSSL as it not uses whitespaces but underscores.
Modifications:
Make the message matching less strict.
Result:
Test pass also when using BoringSSL.
Motivation:
Add user possibility to skip the evaluation of certain web socket extension,
for example we can skip compression extension for messages that already compressed or very small and etc.
Modification:
This pull request is related with #5669
Result:
User can set to WebSocketClientExtensionHandshaker or WebSocketServerExtensionHandshaker a filter to skip the evaluation of certain extension.
Motivation:
In MemoryRegionCache.Entry we use the Recycler to reduce GC pressure and churn. The problem is that these will also be recycled when the PoolThreadCache is collected and finalize() is called. This then can have the effect that we try to load class but the WebApp is already stoped.
This will produce an stacktrace like this on Tomcat:
```
19-Mar-2019 15:53:21.351 INFO [Finalizer] org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.checkStateForResourceLoading Illegal access: this web application instance has been stopped already.

Beside this we also need to ensure we not try to lazy load SizeClass when the finalizer is used as it may not be present anymore if the ClassLoader is already destroyed.
This would produce an error like:
```

Modifications:
- Only try to put the Entry back into the Recycler if the PoolThredCache is not destroyed because of the finalizer.
- Only try to access SizeClass if not triggered by finalizer.
Result:
No IllegalStateException anymoe when a webapp is reloaded in Tomcat that uses netty and uses the PooledByteBufAllocator.
Motivation:
The special case fixed in #8497 also requires that we keep a derived slice when trimming components in place, as done by the capacity(int) and discardReadBytes() methods.
Modifications:
Ensure that we keep a ref to trimmed components' original retained slice in capacity(int) and discardReadBytes() methods, so that it is released properly when the they are later freed. Add unit test which fails prior to the fix.
Result:
Edge case leak is eliminated.
Motivation:
PooledByteBufAllocator uses a PoolThreadCache per Thread that allocates / deallocates to minimize the performance overhead. This PoolThreadCache is trimmed after X allocations to free up buffers that are not allocated for a long time. This works out quite well when the app continues to allocate but fails if the app stops to allocate frequently (for whatever reason) and so a lot of memory is wasted and not given back to the arena / freed.
Modifications:
- Add a ThreadExecutorMap that offers multiple methods that wrap Runnable / ThreadFactory / Executor and allow to call ThreadExecutorMap.currentEventExecutor() to get the current executing EventExecutor for the calling Thread.
- Use these methods in the constructors of our EventExecutor implementations (which also covers the EventLoop implementations)
- Add io.netty.allocator.cacheTrimIntervalMillis system property which can be used to specify a fixed rate / interval on which we should try to trim the PoolThreadCache for a EventExecutor that allocates.
- Add PooledByteBufAllocator.trimCurrentThreadCache() to allow the user to trim the cache of the calling thread manually.
- Add testcases
- Introduce FastThreadLocal.getIfExists()
Result:
Allow to better / more frequently trim PoolThreadCache and so give back memory to the area / system.
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/8963 adds property files which contains a netty copyright header but our old checkstyle regex did not correct detect these.
Modifications:
Update to new netty-build which contains an updated regex.
Result:
Be able to correctly detect copyright headers in property files.
Motivation:
It appears this was an oversight, maybe was valid at some point in the past. Noticed while reviewing #8958.
Modifications:
Change AbstractChannelHandlerContext to not extend DefaultAttributeMap.
Result:
Simpler hierarchy, eliminate unused attributes field from each context instance.
Motivation:
We dont use ObjectCleaner in our FastThreadLocal anymore so we also dont need to take special care to store it there anymore.
Modifications:
Remove code that is not needed anymore.
Result:
Code cleanup.
Motivation:
df8b9d3fb9 added config files for docker-sync but missed to add a gitignore for .docker-sync
Modifications:
Add .docker-sync to gitignore
Result:
Ignore .docker-sync directory
Motivation:
GlobalEventExecutor does already provide all guarantees of OrderedEventExecutor so it should implement it.
Modifications:
Let GlobalEventExecutor implement OrderedEventExecutor.
Result:
Make it more clear how execution order is handled in GlobalEventExecutor.
Motivation:
Since DomainSocketChannel is a DuplexChannel, which be able to shutdown input or output individually on demands, but ALLOW_HALF_CLOSURE channel option has not been supported yet.
I thought this could be a missing feature of Unix domain socket, so here the PR for it.
Modifications:
1. Added allHalfClosure property both in EpollDomainSocketChannelConfig and KQueueDomainSocketChannelConfig,
2. Enabled isAllowHalfClosure method of native channel to support domain channel config,
3. Created EpollDomainSocketShutdownOutputByPeerTest and KQueueDomainSocketShutdownOutputByPeerTest to verify the change.
Result:
ALLOW_HALF_CLOSURE channel option can be set with DomainSocketChannel, and no more warning of Unknown channel option 'ALLOW_HALF_CLOSURE'.
Motivation:
docker-sync.io helps to speed up docker FS access on macOS and so make builds there a lot faster. We should add some config to help users use it.
Modifications:
Add docker-sync configs for centos-6.18 which is what we use for releases.
Result:
Faster builds via docker and when using macOS possible.
Motivation:
This counter is very useful in order to monitor Netty without having every ByteBufAllocator in the JVM
Modification:
Expose the value of DIRECT_MEMORY_COUNTER as we are already doing for DIRECT_MEMORY_LIMIT.
We are returning -1 in case that DIRECT_MEMORY_COUNTER is not available.
Result:
Be able to get the amount of direct memory used.
Motivation:
When the verification of the server cert fails because of the used TrustManager on the client-side we need to ensure we produce the correct alert and send it to the remote peer before closing the connection.
Modifications:
- Use the correct verification mode on the client-side by default.
- Update tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8942.
Motivation:
testsuite-osgi currently resolve its bundles from the local / remote maven repository, which means you will need to do `mvn install` before it can pick up the bundles. Beside this this also means that you may pick up old versions if you forgot to call `install` before running it.
Modifications:
Use alta-maven-plugin to be able to resolve bundles from the local build directory during the build.
Result:
No need to install jars before running the OSGI testsuite and ensure we always test with the latest jars.
Motivation:
We had a typo in NativeLibraryLoader debug log message which could misslead the user.
Modifications:
Fix typo to correctly state java.library.path
Result:
Correct and less confusing log message
Motivation:
According to the specification, the "Connection" header's syntax is:
"
The Connection header field's value has the following grammar:
Connection = 1#connection-option
connection-option = token
Connection options are case-insensitive.
"
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-6.1
This means that Connection's value can have at least one element or
a comma separated list with elements
When calculating whether the connection can remain open,
HttpUtil.isKeepAlive(HttpMessage) should take this into account.
Modifications:
- Check for "close" and "keep-alive" in a comma separated list
- Add unit test
Result:
HttpUtil.isKeepAlive(HttpMessage) works correctly when "Connection: Upgrade, close"
Motivation:
We want to make the experience as smooth as possible for our users when using Java9+ and so should ensure we do not produce any 'Illegal reflective access' errors when using netty.
Modifications:
Add jvmArgs when running our tests that will deny reflective access and so will fail the build at the end due not be able to load some classes.
Result:
Ensure we do not produce any illegal refelctive access errors when using java9+
Motivation:
At some point we needed --add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED to run our native tests but this is not true anymore.
Modifications:
Remove --add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED when running native tests.
Result:
Remove obsolate jvm arg.
Motivation:
We did not have any unit tests that queries for TXT records.
Modifications:
Add unit test to query TXT records.
Result:
More test-coverage.
Motivation:
The SSLSession that is returned by SSLEngine.getHandshakeSession() must be able to provide the local certificates when the TrustManager is invoked on the server-side.
Modifications:
- Correctly return the local certificates
- Add unit test
Result:
Be able to obtain local certificates from handshake SSLSession during verification on the server side.
Motivation:
When HttpContentDecoder (and so HttpContentDecompressor) does not produce any message we need to make sure it calls ctx.read() if auto read is false to not stale.
Modifications:
- Keep track if we need to call ctx.read() or not
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8915.
Motivation:
In the past we found a lot of SSL related bugs because of the interopt tests we have in place between different SSLEngine implementations. We should have as many of these interopt tests as possible for this reason.
Modifications:
- Add interopt tests between Conscrypt and OpenSSL SSLEngine implementations
Result:
More tests for SSL.
Motivation:
Simple rules:
* close the connection when sending any error
* specify "Connection: close" header when closing the connection
* successful responses should keep the connection intact when otherwise is not requested by the client
Modifications:
* "send response and cleanup the connection" logic moved to a helper
* for all successful responses set "Content-Lenght" header
* do not specify "Connection: Keep-Alive" header as far it's a default for HTTP/1.1
* set "Connection: close" header when necessary
Result:
Keep-Alive connections management is inlined with RFCs.
Motivation:
SSLEngine API has a notion of tasks that may be expensive and offload these to another thread. We did not support this when using our native implementation but can now for various operations during the handshake.
Modifications:
- Support offloading tasks during the handshake when using our native SSLEngine implementation
- Correctly handle the case when NEED_TASK is returned and nothing was consumed / produced yet
Result:
Be able to offload long running tasks from the EventLoop when using SslHandler with our native SSLEngine.
Motivation:
2bb9f64e16 introduced a change which made it possible to use different shaded versions of netty-tcnative on the classpath. This only partly worked as we did not correctly handled the case when os / arch is part of the library name (which is the case when netty-tcnative-boringssl-static is used with the uber jar).
Modifications:
- If patching the ID failed we retry again with the os / arch stripped
- Add unit tests to verify that patching ID now works with and without os / arch as suffix.
Result:
Using multiple shaded version of netty-tcnative-boringssl-static on MacOS works.
Motivation:
Netty is very widely used which can lead to a lot of pain when we break API / ABI. We should make use japicmp-maven-plugin during the build to verify we do not introduce breakage by mistake.
Modifications:
- Add japicmp-maven-plugin to the build process
- Fix a method signature change in HttpProxyHandler that was flagged as a possible problem.
Result:
Ensure no API/ABI breakage accour between releases.
Motivation:
We must only remove ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine from OpenSslEngineMap when engine is destroyed as the verifier / certificate callback may be called multiple times when the remote peer did initiate a renegotiation.
If we fail to do so we will cause an NPE like this:
```

While the exception is kind of harmless (as we will reject the renegotiation at the end anyway) it produces some noise in the logs.
Modifications:
Don't remove engine from map after handshake is complete but wait for it to be removed until the engine is destroyed.
Result:
No more NPE and less noise in the logs.
Motivation:
To ensure Netty works on different JVMs we should also run tests on the CI with these.
Modifications:
Add docker-compose config to run build with OpenJ9 JVM
Result:
Ensure Netty works with different JVMs
Motivation:
We should run a CI job using J9 to ensure netty also works when using different JVMs.
Modifications:
- Adjust PooledByteBufAllocatorTest to be able to complete faster when using a JVM which takes longer when joining Threads (this seems to be the case with J9).
- Skip UDT tests on J9 as UDT is not supported there.
Result:
Be able to run CI against J9.
Motivation:
ChunkedWriteHandler needs to close both successful and failed
ChunkInputs. It used to never close successful ones.
Modifications:
* ChunkedWriteHandler always closes ChunkInput before completing
the write promise.
* Ensure only ChunkInput#close() is invoked
on a failed input.
* Ensure no methods are invoked on a closed input.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8875.
Motivation:
PromiseCombiner is not thread-safe and even assumes all added Futures are using the same EventExecutor. This is kind of fragile as we do not enforce this. We need to enforce this contract to ensure it's safe to use and easy to spot concurrency problems.
Modifications:
- Add new contructor to PromiseCombiner that takes an EventExecutor and deprecate the old non-arg constructor.
- Check if methods are called from within the EventExecutor thread and if not fail
- Correctly dispatch on the right EventExecutor if the Future uses a different EventExecutor to eliminate concurrency issues.
Result:
More safe use of PromiseCombiner + enforce correct usage / contract.
Motivation:
fa6a8cb09c introduced correct dispatching of delegated tasks for SSLEngine but did not correctly handle some cases for resuming wrap / unwrap after the task was executed. This could lead to stales, which showed up during tests when running with Java11 and BoringSSL.
Modifications:
- Correctly resume wrap / unwrap in all cases.
- Fix timeout value which was changed in previous commit by mistake.
Result:
No more stales after task execution.
Motivation:
We use outdated EA releases when building and testing with JDK 12 and 13.
Modifications:
- Update versions.
- Add workaround for possible JDK12+ bug.
Result:
Use latest releases
