Motivation:
There are few duplicated byte[] CRLF fields in code.
Modifications:
Removed duplicated fields as they could be inherited from parent encoder.
Result:
Less static fields.
Motivation :
Unboxing operations allocate unnecessary objects when it could be avoided.
Modifications:
Replaced Float.valueOf with Number.parseFloat where possible.
Result:
Less unnecessary objects allocations.
Motivation:
retainSlice() currently does not unwrap the ByteBuf when creating the ByteBuf wrapper. This effectivley forms a linked list of ByteBuf when it is only necessary to maintain a reference to the unwrapped ByteBuf.
Modifications:
- retainSlice() and retainDuplicate() variants should only maintain a reference to the unwrapped ByteBuf
- create new unit tests which generally verify the retainSlice() behavior
- Remove unecessary generic arguments from AbstractPooledDerivedByteBuf
- Remove unecessary int length member variable from the unpooled sliced ByteBuf implementation
- Rename the unpooled sliced/derived ByteBuf to include Unpooled in their name to be more consistent with the Pooled variants
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5582
Motivation:
Currently, QueryStringDecoder#path simply returns the path info as is, without decoding it as the Javadoc states.
Modifications:
* Make QueryStringDecoder#path decode the path info.
* Add tests to QueryStringDecoderTest.
Result:
QueryStringDecoder#path now decodes the path info as expected.
Motivation:
DiskFileUpload and MemoryFileUpload.equals(...) are broken.
Modifications:
Fix implementation and add unit test.
Result:
Equals method are correct now.
Motivation:
We don't have an argument named {@code value} but have {@code set} and
{@code expected} in HttpHeaders and HttpUtil respectively.
Modifications:
I replaced {@code value} to {@code set} and {@code expected} in HttpHeaders
and HttpUtil respectively.
Result:
Now javadoc says;
If {@code set} is {@code true}, the {@code "Expect: 100-continue"} header is
set and all other previous {@code "Expect"} headers are removed. Otherwise,
all {@code "Expect"} headers are removed completely. in HttpHeaders
If {@code expected} is {@code true}, the {@code "Expect: 100-continue"} header
is set and all other previous {@code "Expect"} headers are removed. Otherwise,
all {@code "Expect"} headers are removed completely. in HttpUtil
Motivation:
These methods were recently deprecated. However, they remained in use in several locations in Netty's codebase.
Modifications:
Netty's code will now access the bootstrap config to get the group or child group.
Result:
No impact on functionality.
Motivation:
We use pre-instantiated exceptions in various places for performance reasons. These exceptions don't include a stacktrace which makes it hard to know where the exception was thrown. This is especially true as we use the same exception type (for example ChannelClosedException) in different places. Setting some StackTraceElements will provide more context as to where these exceptions original and make debugging easier.
Modifications:
Set a generated StackTraceElement on these pre-instantiated exceptions which at least contains the origin class and method name. The filename and linenumber are specified as unkown (as stated in the javadocs of StackTraceElement).
Result:
Easier to find the origin of a pre-instantiated exception.
Motivation:
When HTTPS is used we should use https in the sec-websocket-origin / origin header
Modifications:
- Correctly generate the sec-websocket-origin / origin header
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Generate correct header.
`HttpContentDecoder` was removing `Content-Length` header but not adding a `Transfer-Encoding` header which goes against the HTTP spec.
Added `Transfer-Encoding` header with value `chunked` when `Content-Length` is removed.
Modified existing unit test to also check for this condition.
Compliance with HTTP spec.
Motivation:
When using HttpContentCompressor and the HttpResponse is protocol version 1.0, HttpContentEncoder.encode() should not set the transfer-encoding header to chunked. Chunked transfer-encoding is not valid for HTTP 1.0 - this causes ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED errors in chrome and similar failures in IE.
Modifications:
Skip HTTP/1.0 messages
Result:
Be able to serve HTTP/1.0 as well when HttpContentEncoder is in the pipeline.
Motivation:
Its completly fine for ChunkedInput.readChunk(...) to return null to indicate there is currently not any data to read. We need to handle this in HttpChunkedInput to not produce a NPE when constructing the HttpContent.
Modifications:
If readChunk(...) return null just return null as well.
Result:
No more NPE.
Motivation:
I cherry-picked 819b26b too soon. There were entries added to a deprecated class which should only go into the non-deprecated version of the class.
Modifications:
- Remove the static final variables that were added as duplicates to the deprecated class
Result:
Deprecated code does not grown in volume without need.
Motivation:
Some commons values are missing from HttpHeader values constants.
Modifications:
- Add constants for "application/json" Content-Type
- Add constants for "gzip,deflate" Content-Encoding
Result:
More HttpHeader values constants available, both in
`HttpHeaders.Values` and `HttpHeaderValues`.
Motivation:
Support fetches data chunk by chunk for use with WebSocket chunked transfers.
Modifications:
Create a WebSocketChunkedInput.java that add to io.netty.handler.codec.http.websocketx package
Result:
The WebSocket transfers/fetches data chunk by chunk.
Motivation:
JCTools supports both non-unsafe, unsafe versions of queues and JDK6 which allows us to shade the library in netty-common allowing it to stay "zero dependency".
Modifications:
- Remove copy paste JCTools code and shade the library (dependencies that are shaded should be removed from the <dependencies> section of the generated POM).
- Remove usage of OneTimeTask and remove it all together.
Result:
Less code to maintain and easier to update JCTools and less GC pressure as the queue implementation nt creates so much garbage
Motivation:
When the channel is closed while we still decode the headers we currently not preserve correct message sequence. In this case we should generate an invalid message with a current cause.
Modifications:
Create an invalid message with a PrematureChannelClosureException as cause when the channel is closed while we decode the headers.
Result:
Correct message sequence preserved and correct DecoderResult if the channel is closed while decode headers.
Motivation:
The user may specify to use a different allocator then the default. In this case we need to ensure it is shared when creating the EmbeddedChannel inside of a ChannelHandler
Modifications:
Use the config of the "original" Channel in the EmbeddedChannel and so share the same allocator etc.
Result:
Same type of buffers are used.
Motivation:
At the moment the user is responsible to increase the writer index of the composite buffer when a new component is added. We should add some methods that handle this for the user as this is the most popular usage of the composite buffer.
Modifications:
Add new methods that autoamtically increase the writerIndex when buffers are added.
Result:
Easier usage of CompositeByteBuf.
Motivation:
The HPACK code currently disallows empty header names. This is not explicitly forbidden by the HPACK RFC https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7541. However the HTTP/1.x RFC https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.2 and thus HTTP/2 both disallow empty header names, and so this precondition check should be moved from the HPACK code to the protocol level.
HPACK also requires that string literals which are huffman encoded must be treated as an encoding error if the string has more than 7 trailing padding bits https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7541#section-5.2, but this is currently not enforced.
Result:
- HPACK to allow empty header names
- HTTP/1.x and HTTP/2 header validation should not allow empty header names
- Enforce max of 7 trailing padding bits
Result:
Code is more compliant with the above mentioned RFCs
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5228
Related: #4333#4421#5128
Motivation:
slice(), duplicate() and readSlice() currently create a non-recyclable
derived buffer instance. Under heavy load, an application that creates a
lot of derived buffers can put the garbage collector under pressure.
Modifications:
- Add the following methods which creates a non-recyclable derived buffer
- retainedSlice()
- retainedDuplicate()
- readRetainedSlice()
- Add the new recyclable derived buffer implementations, which has its
own reference count value
- Add ByteBufHolder.retainedDuplicate()
- Add ByteBufHolder.replace(ByteBuf) so that..
- a user can replace the content of the holder in a consistent way
- copy/duplicate/retainedDuplicate() can delegate the holder
construction to replace(ByteBuf)
- Use retainedDuplicate() and retainedSlice() wherever possible
- Miscellaneous:
- Rename DuplicateByteBufTest to DuplicatedByteBufTest (missing 'D')
- Make ReplayingDecoderByteBuf.reject() return an exception instead of
throwing it so that its callers don't need to add dummy return
statement
Result:
Derived buffers are now recycled when created via retainedSlice() and
retainedDuplicate() and derived from a pooled buffer
Motivation:
At the moment we let the IllegalArgumentException escape when parsing form parameters. This is not expected.
Modifications:
Correctly catch IllegalArgumentException and rethrow as ErrorDataDecoderException.
Result:
Throw correct exception.
Motivation:
Currently the way a 'null' origin, a request that most often indicated
that the request is coming from a file on the local file system, is
handled is incorrect. We are currently returning a wildcard origin '*'
but should be returning 'null' for the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin'
which is valid according to the specification [1].
Modifications:
Updated CorsHandler to add a 'null' origin instead of the '*' origin in
the case the request origin is 'null.
Result:
All test pass and the CORS example as does the cors.html example if you
try to serve it by opening the file directly in a web browser.

Motivation:
Checking if a key exists on a TreeMap has a Big O of "log 2 N",
doing it twice is not cheap.
Modifications:
Get the key instead which has the same cost and check if it is null.
Result:
Faster code due to one expensive operation removed.
Motivation:
We missed to reset the decoder when asked for it in HttpObjectDecoder and so sometimes could produce more then one LastHttpContent in a sequence during channelInactive.
This did show up as AssertionError:
22:22:35.499 [nioEventLoopGroup-3-1] WARN i.n.channel.DefaultChannelPipeline - An exceptionCaught() event was fired, and it reached at the tail of the pipeline. It usually means the last handler in the pipeline did not handle the exception.

Modifications:
Correctly reset decoder.
Result:
Correctly only produce one LastHttpContent per sequence.
Motivation:
When upgrading h2c, I found that sometimes both of http2 settings frame and http response message was arrived before receiving upgrade success event. It was because ByteToMessageDecoder propagated its internally buffered message to the next handler when removing itself from pipeline.(refer to ByteToMessageDecoder#handlerRemoved)
I think it's better to propagate upgrade success event when handling 101 switching protocol response.
Modifications:
Upgrade success event will be propagated before removing source codec.
Result:
It guarantees that upgrade success event will be arrived first at the next handler.
Motivation:
There is a spelling error in FileRegion.transfered() as it should be transferred().
Modifications:
Deprecate old method and add a new one.
Result:
Fix typo and can remove the old method later.
Motivation:
DefaultCookie constructor performs a name validation that doesn’t match
RFC6265. Moreover, such validation is already performed in strict
encoders and decoders.
Modifications:
Drop DefaultCookie name validation, rely on encoders and decoders.
Result:
no more duplicate broken validation
Motivation:
We missed to pass the decrement value to the wrapped FullHttpRequest and so missed to decrement the reference count in the correct way.
Modifications:
Correctly pass the decrement value to the wrapped request.
Result:
UpgradeEvent.release(decrement) works as expected.
Motivation:
HttpServerUpgradeHandler.UpgradeCodec.prepareUpgradeResponse should allow to abort the upgrade and so just continue with using HTTP. Beside this we should only pass in the response HttpHeaders as this is inline with the docs.
Modifications:
- UpgradeCodec.prepareUpgradeResponse now allows to return a boolean and so allows to specifiy if the upgrade should take place.
- Change the param from FullHttpResponse to HttpHeaders to be inline with the javadocs.
Result:
More flexible and correct handling of upgrades.
Motivation:
upgradeTo(...) takes the response as paramater, but the respone itself was already written to the Channel. This gives the user the impression the response can be changed or even act on it which may not be safe anymore once it was written and has been released.
Modifications:
Remove the response param from the method.
Result:
Less confusion and safer usage.
Motivation:
The current HttpPostMultipartRequestDecoder can decode multipart/form-data parts with a Content-Type that specifies a charset. When this charset is invalid the Charset.forName() throws an unchecked UnsupportedCharsetException. This exception is not catched by the decoder. It should actually be rethrown as an ErrorDataDecoderException, because the developer using the API would expect this validation failure to be reported as such.
Modifications:
Add a catch block for UnsupportedCharsetException and rethrow it as an ErrorDataDecoderException.
Result:
UnsupportedCharsetException are now rethrown as ErrorDataDecoderException.
Motivation:
It will be easier to support websockets in server application by using WebSocketServerProtocolHandshakeHandler class and not reinvent its functionality. But currently it handles all http requests as if they were websocket handshake requests.
Modifications:
Check if http request path is equals to adjusted websocket path.
Fixed example of websocket server implementation.
Result:
WebSocketServerProtocolHandshakeHandler handles only websocket handshake requests.
Motivation:
If the input buffer is empty we should not have decodeLast(...) call decode(...) as the user may not expect this.
Modifications:
- Not call decode(...) in decodeLast(...) if the input buffer is empty.
- Add testcases.
Result:
decodeLast(...) will not call decode(...) if input buffer is empty.
Modifications:
When constructing the FullHttpMessage pass in the ByteBuf to use via the ByteBufAllocator assigned via the context.
Result:
The ByteBuf assigned to the FullHttpMessage can now be configured as a pooled/unpooled, direct/heap based ByteBuf via the ByteBufAllocator used.
Motivation:
See #4855
Modifications:
Unfortunately, unescapeCsv cannot be used here because the input could be a CSV line like `"a,b",c`. Hence this patch adds unescapeCsvFields to parse a CSV line and split it into multiple fields and unescaped them. The unit tests should define the behavior of unescapeCsvFields.
Then this patch just uses unescapeCsvFields to implement `CombinedHttpHeaders.getAll`.
Result:
`CombinedHttpHeaders.getAll` will return the unescaped values of a header.
Motivation:
b714297a44 introduced ChannelInputShutdownEvent support for HttpObjectDecoder. However this should have been added to the super class ByteToMessageDecoder, and ByteToMessageDecoder should not propegate a channelInactive event through the pipeline in this case.
Modifications:
- Move the ChannelInputShutdownEvent handling from HttpObjectDecoder to ByteToMessageDecoder
- ByteToMessageDecoder doesn't call ctx.fireChannelInactive() on ChannelInputShutdownEvent
Result:
Half closed events are treated more generically, and don't get translated into a channelInactive pipeline event.
Motivation:
The initial buffer size used to decode HTTP objects is currently fixed at 128. This may be too small for some use cases and create a high amount of overhead associated with resizing/copying. The user should be able to configure the initial size as they please.
Modifications:
- Make HttpObjectDecoder's AppendableCharSequence initial size configurable
Result:
Users can more finely tune initial buffer size for increased performance or to save memory.
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/4807
Motivation:
"CorsConfigBuilder.allowNullOrigin()" should be public otherwise people can not set it. See #4835
Modifications:
Make "CorsConfigBuilder.allowNullOrigin()" public.
Result:
The user can call "CorsConfigBuilder.allowNullOrigin()" now.
Motivation:
If the Connection header contains multiple values (which is valid) we fail to detect a websocket upgrade
Modification:
- Add new method which allows to check if a header field contains a specific value (and also respect multiple header values)
- Use this method to detect handshake
Result:
Correct detect handshake if Connection header contains multiple values (seperated by ',').
Motivation:
If the ZlibCodecFactory can support using a custom window size we should support it by default in the websocket extensions as well.
Modifications:
Detect if a custom window size can be handled by the ZlibCodecFactory and if so enable it by default for PerMessageDeflate*ExtensionHandshaker.
Result:
Support window size flag by default in most installations.
Motivation:
If the user calls handshake.finishHandshake() we need to ensure that the user has the chance to setup the pipeline before any WebSocketFrames are read. Because of this we need
to delay the removal of the HttpRequestDecoder.
Modifications:
- Remove the HttpRequestDecoder via the EventLoop and so delay it which gives the user a chance to setup the pipeline after finishHandshake() completes
- Add unit test for this.
Result:
Less surpising and correct behaviour even if the http response and websocket frame are received in one read operation.
Motivation:
Request bodies can easily be larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE in practice.
There's no reason, or intention, for Netty to impose this artificial constraint.
Worse, it currently does not fail if the body is larger than this value;
it just silently only reads the first Integer.MAX_VALUE bytes and discards the rest.
This restriction doesn't effect chunked transfers, with no Content-Length header.
Modifications:
Force the use of `long HttpUtil.getContentLength(HttpMessage, long)` instead of
`long HttpUtil.getContentLength(HttpMessage, long)`.
Result:
Netty will support HTTP request bodies of up to Long.MAX_VALUE length.
Motivation:
When HttpClientUpgradeHandler upgrades from HTTP/1 to another protocol,
it performs a two-step opertion:
1. Remove the SourceCodec (HttpClientCodec)
2. Add the UpgradeCodec
When HttpClientCodec is removed from the pipeline, the decoder being
removed triggers channelRead() event with the data left in its
cumulation buffer. However, this is not received by the UpgradeCodec
becuase it's not added yet. e.g. HTTP/2 SETTINGS frame sent by the
server can be missed out.
To fix the problem, we need to reverse the steps:
1. Add the UpgradeCodec
2. Remove the SourceCodec
However, this does not work as expected either, because UpgradeCodec can
send a greeting message such as HTTP/2 Preface. Such a greeting message
will be handled by the SourceCodec and will trigger an 'unsupported
message type' exception.
To fix the problem really, we need to make the upgrade process 3-step:
1. Remove/disable the encoder of SourceCodec
2. Add the UpgradeCodec
3. Remove the SourceCodec
Modifications:
- Add SourceCodec.prepareUpgradeFrom() so that SourceCodec can remove or
disable its encoder
- Implement HttpClientCodec.prepareUpgradeFrom() properly
- Miscellaneous:
- Log the related channel as well When logging the failure to send a
GOAWAY
Result:
Cleartext HTTP/1-to-HTTP/2 upgrade works again.
