6af56ffe76 HPACK Encoder headerFields improvements
Motivation:
HPACK Encoder has a data structure which is similar to a previous version of DefaultHeaders. Some of the same improvements can be made.

Motivation:
- Enforce the restriction that the Encoder's headerFields length must be a power of two so we can use masking instead of modulo
- Use AsciiString.hashCode which already has optimizations instead of having yet another hash code algorithm in Encoder

Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5357

a7f7d9c8e0 Remove unsafe char[] access in PlatformDependent
Motivation:
PlatformDependent attempts to use reflection to get the underlying char[] (or byte[]) from String objects. This is fragile as if the String implementation does not utilize the full array, and instead uses a subset of the array, this optimization is invalid. OpenJDK6 and some earlier versions of OpenJDK7 String have the capability to use a subsection of the underlying char[].

Modifications:
- PlatformDependent should not attempt to use the underlying array from String (or other data types) via reflection

Result:
PlatformDependent hash code generation for CharSequence does not depend upon specific JDK implementation details.

70651cc58d HpackUtil.equals performance improvement
Motivation:
PR #5355 modified interfaces to reduce GC related to the HPACK code. However this came with an anticipated performance regression related to HpackUtil.equals due to AsciiString's increase cost of charAt(..). We should mitigate this performance regression.

Modifications:
- Introduce an equals method in PlatformDependent which doesn't leak timing information and use this in HpcakUtil.equals

Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5436

b4d4c0034d Optimize HPACK usage to align more with Netty types and remove heavy object creations. Related to [#3597]
Motivations:

The HPACK code was not really optimized and written with Netty types in mind. Because of this a lot of garbage was created due heavy object creation.

This was first reported in [#3597] and https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/issues/1872 .

Modifications:

- Directly use ByteBuf as input and output
- Make use of ByteProcessor where possible
- Use AsciiString as this is the only thing we need for our http2 usage

Result:

Less garbage and better usage of Netty apis.

e59d0e9efb Introduce CodecOutputList to reduce overhead of encoder/decoder
Motivation:

99dfc9ea79 introduced some code that will more frequently try to forward messages out of the list of decoded messages to reduce latency and memory footprint. Unfortunally this has the side-effect that RecycleableArrayList.clear() will be called more often and so introduce some overhead as ArrayList will null out the array on each call.

Modifications:

- Introduce a CodecOutputList which allows to not null out the array until we recycle it and also allows to access internal array with extra range checks.
- Add benchmark that add elements to different List implementations and clear them

Result:

Less overhead when decode / encode messages.

68cd670eb9 Remove ChannelHandlerInvoker
Motivation:

We tried to provide the ability for the user to change the semantics of the threading-model by delegate the invoking of the ChannelHandler to the ChannelHandlerInvoker. Unfortunually this not really worked out quite well and resulted in just more complexity and splitting of code that belongs together. We should remove the ChannelHandlerInvoker again and just do the same as in 4.0

Modifications:

Remove ChannelHandlerInvoker again and replace its usage in Http2MultiplexCodec

Result:

Easier code and less bad abstractions.

c5faa142fb KObjectHashMap probeNext improvement
Motivation:
KObjectHashMap.probeNext(..) usually involves 2 conditional statements and 2 aritmatic operations. This can be improved to have 0 conditional statements.

Modifications:
- Use bit masking to avoid conditional statements

Result:
Improved performance for KObjecthashMap.probeNext(..)

d580245afc DefaultHttp2Connection.close Reentrant Modification
Motivation:
The DefaultHttp2Conneciton.close method accounts for active streams being iterated and attempts to avoid reentrant modifications of the underlying stream map by using iterators to remove from the stream map. However there are a few issues:

- While iterating over the stream map we don't prevent iterations over the active stream collection
- Removing a single stream may actually remove > 1 streams due to closed non-leaf streams being preserved in the priority tree which may result in NPE

Preserving closed non-leaf streams in the priority tree is no longer necessary with our current allocation algorithms, and so this feature (and related complexity) can be removed.

Modifications:
- DefaultHttp2Connection.close should prevent others from iterating over the active streams and reentrant modification scenarios which may result from this
- DefaultHttp2Connection should not keep closed stream in the priority tree
  - Remove all associated code in DefaultHttp2RemoteFlowController which accounts for this case including the ReducedState object
  - This includes fixing writability changes which depended on ReducedState
- Update unit tests

Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5198

9229ed98e2 [#5088] Add annotation which marks packages/interfaces/classes as unstable
Motivation:

Some codecs should be considered unstable as these are relative new. For this purpose we should introduce an annotation which these codecs should us to be marked as unstable in terms of API.

Modifications:

- Add UnstableApi annotation and use it on codecs that are not stable
- Move http2.hpack to http2.internal.hpack as it is internal.

Result:

Better document unstable APIs.

Modifications:

- Add FastThreadLocalSlowPathBenchmark for the flow path of FastThreadLocal
- Add final to speed up the slow path of FastThreadLocal

Result:

The slow path of FastThreadLocal is improved.

f990f9983d HTTP/2 Don't Flow Control Iniital Headers
Motivation:
Currently the initial headers for every stream is queued in the flow controller. Since the initial header frame may create streams the peer must receive these frames in the order in which they were created, or else this will be a protocol error and the connection will be closed. Tolerating the initial headers being queued would increase the complexity of the WeightedFairQueueByteDistributor and there is benefit of doing so is not clear.

Modifications:
- The initial headers will no longer be queued in the flow controllers

Result:

6dbb610f5b Add ChannelHandlerContext.invoker()
Motivation:

Being able to access the invoker() is useful when adding additional
handlers that should be running in the same thread. Since an application
may be using a threading model unsupported by the default invoker, they
can specify their own. Because of that, in a handler that auto-adds
other handlers:

// This is a good pattern
ctx.pipeline().addBefore(ctx.invoker(), ctx.name(), null, newHandler);
// This will generally work, but prevents using custom invoker.
ctx.pipeline().addBefore(ctx.executor(), ctx.name(), null, newHandler);

That's why I believe in commit 110745b0, for the now-defunct 5.0 branch,
when ChannelHandlerAppender was added the invoker() method was also
necessary.

There is a side-benefit to exposing the invoker: in certain advanced
use-cases using the invoker for a particular handler is useful. Using
the invoker you are able to invoke a _particular_ handler, from possibly
a different thread yet still using standard exception processing.

ChannelHandlerContext does part of that, but is unwieldy when trying to
invoke a particular handler because it invokes the prev or next handler,
not the one the context is for. A workaround is to use the next or prev
context (respectively), but this breaks when the pipeline changes.

This came up during writing the Http2MultiplexCodec which uses a
separate child channel for each http/2 stream and wants to send messages
from the child channel directly to the Http2MultiplexCodec handler that
created it.

Modifications:

Add the invoker() method to ChannelHandlerContext. It was already being
implemented by AbstractChannelHandlerContext. The two other
implementations of ChannelHandlerContext needed minor tweaks.

Result:

Access to the invoker used for a particular handler, for either reusing
for other handlers or for advanced use-cases. Fixes #4738

904e70a4d4 HTTP/2 Weighted Fair Queue Byte Distributor
Motivation:
PriorityStreamByteDistributor uses a homegrown algorithm which distributes bytes to nodes in the priority tree. PriorityStreamByteDistributor has no concept of goodput which may result in poor utilization of network resources. PriorityStreamByteDistributor also has performance issues related to the tree traversal approach and number of nodes that must be visited. There also exists some more proven algorithms from the resource scheduling domain which PriorityStreamByteDistributor does not employ.

Modifications:
- Introduce a new ByteDistributor which uses elements from weighted fair queue schedulers

Result:
StreamByteDistributor which is sensitive to priority and uses a more familiar distribution concept.

2202e8f967 Revamp the Http2ConnectionHandler builder API
Related: #4572

Motivation:

- A user might want to extend Http2ConnectionHandler and define his/her
  own static inner Builder class that extends
  Http2ConnectionHandler.BuilderBase. This introduces potential
  confusion because there's already Http2ConnectionHandler.Builder. Your
  IDE will warn about this name duplication as well.
- BuilderBase exposes all setters with public modifier. A user's Builder
  might not want to expose them to enforce it to certain configuration.
  There's no way to hide them because it's public already and they are
  final.
- BuilderBase.build(Http2ConnectionDecoder, Http2ConnectionEncoder)
  ignores most properties exposed by BuilderBase, such as
  validateHeaders, frameLogger and encoderEnforceMaxConcurrentStreams.
  If any build() method ignores the properties exposed by the builder,
  there's something wrong.
- A user's Builder that extends BuilderBase might want to require more
  parameters in build(). There's no way to do that cleanly because
  build() is public and final already.

Modifications:

- Make BuilderBase and Builder top-level so that there's no duplicate
  name issue anymore.
  - Add AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
  - Add Http2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
  - Add HttpToHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
- Make all builder methods in AbstractHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder
  protected so that a subclass can choose which methods to expose
- Provide only a single build() method
  - Add connection() and codec() so that a user can still specify
    Http2Connection or Http2Connection(En|De)coder explicitly
  - Implement proper state validation mechanism so that it is prevented
    to invoke conflicting setters

Result:

Less confusing yet flexible builder API

641505a5d2 DefaultChannelConfig maxMessagesPerRead default not always set
Motivation:
ChannelMetadata has a field minMaxMessagesPerRead which can be confusing. There are also some cases where static instances are used and the default value for channel type is not being applied.

Modifications:
- use a default value which is set unconditionally to simplify
- make sure static instances of MaxMessagesRecvByteBufAllocator are not used if the intention is that the default maxMessagesPerRead should be derived from the channel type.

Result:
Less confusing interfaces in ChannelMetadata and ChannelConfig. Default maxMessagesPerRead is correctly applied.

2a2059d976 Adding UniformStreamByteDistributor
Motivation:

The current priority algorithm can yield poor per-stream goodput when either the number of streams is high or the connection window is small. When all priorities are the same (i.e. priority is disabled), we should be able to do better.

Modifications:

Added a new UniformStreamByteDistributor that ignores priority entirely and manages a queue of streams.  Each stream is allocated a minimum of 1KiB on each iteration.

Result:

Improved goodput when priority is not used.
