93b144b7b4 HttpMethod#valueOf improvement
Motivation:
HttpMethod#valueOf shows up on profiler results in the top set of
results. Since it is a relatively simple operation it can be improved in
isolation.

Modifications:
- Introduce a special case map which assigns each HttpMethod to a unique
index in an array and provides constant time lookup from a hash code
algorithm. When the bucket is matched we can then directly do equality
comparison instead of potentially following a linked structure when
HashMap has hash collisions.

Result:
~10% improvement in benchmark results for HttpMethod#valueOf

e6126215e0 DefaultHttp2FrameWriter reduce object allocation
Motivation:
DefaultHttp2FrameWriter#writeData allocates a DataFrameHeader for each write operation. DataFrameHeader maintains internal state and allocates multiple slices of a buffer which is a maximum of 30 bytes. This 30 byte buffer may not always be necessary and the additional slice operations can utilize retainedSlice to take advantage of pooled objects. We can also save computation and object allocations if there is no padding which is a common case in practice.

Modifications:
- Remove DataFrameHeader
- Add a fast path for padding == 0

Result:
Less object allocation in DefaultHttp2FrameWriter

1f1a60ae7d Use Netty's DefaultPriorityQueue instead of JDK's PriorityQueue for scheduled tasks
Motivation:

`AbstractScheduledEventExecutor` uses a standard `java.util.PriorityQueue` to keep track of task deadlines. `ScheduledFuture.cancel` removes tasks from this `PriorityQueue`. Unfortunately, `PriorityQueue.remove` has `O(n)` performance since it must search for the item in the entire queue before removing it. This is fast when the future is at the front of the queue (e.g., already triggered) but not when it's randomly located in the queue.

Many servers will use `ScheduledFuture.cancel` on all requests, e.g., to manage a request timeout. As these cancellations will be happen in arbitrary order, when there are many scheduled futures, `PriorityQueue.remove` is a bottleneck and greatly hurts performance with many concurrent requests (>10K).

Modification:

Use netty's `DefaultPriorityQueue` for scheduling futures instead of the JDK. `DefaultPriorityQueue` is almost identical to the JDK version except it is able to remove futures without searching for them in the queue. This means `DefaultPriorityQueue.remove` has `O(log n)` performance.

Result:

Before - cancelling futures has varying performance, capped at `O(n)`
After - cancelling futures has stable performance, capped at `O(log n)`

Benchmark results

After - cancelling in order and in reverse order have similar performance within `O(log n)` bounds

83a19d5650 Optimistically update ref counts
Motivation:
Highly retained and released objects have contention on their ref
count.  Currently, the ref count is updated using compareAndSet
with care to make sure the count doesn't overflow, double free, or
revive the object.

Profiling has shown that a non trivial (~1%) of CPU time on gRPC
latency benchmarks is from the ref count updating.

Modification:
Rather than pessimistically assuming the ref count will be invalid,
optimistically update it assuming it will be.  If the update was
wrong, then use the slow path to revert the change and throw an
execption.  Most of the time, the ref counts are correct.

This changes from using compareAndSet to getAndAdd, which emits a
different CPU instruction on x86 (CMPXCHG to XADD).  Because the
CPU knows it will modifiy the memory, it can avoid contention.

On a highly contended machine, this can be about 2x faster.

There is a downside to the new approach.  The ref counters can
temporarily enter invalid states if over retained or over released.
The code does handle these overflow and underflow scenarios, but it
is possible that another concurrent access may push the failure to
a different location.  For example:

Time 1 Thread 1: obj.retain(INT_MAX - 1)
Time 2 Thread 1: obj.retain(2)
Time 2 Thread 2: obj.retain(1)

Previously Thread 2 would always succeed and Thread 1 would always
fail on the second access.  Now, thread 2 could fail while thread 1
is rolling back its change.

====

There are a few reasons why I think this is okay:

1. Buggy code is going to have bugs.  An exception _is_ going to be
   thrown.  This just causes the other threads to notice the state
   is messed up and stop early.
2. If high retention counts are a use case, then ref count should
   be a long rather than an int.
3. The critical section is greatly reduced compared to the previous
   version, so the likelihood of this happening is lower
4. On error, the code always rollsback the change atomically, so
   there is no possibility of corruption.

Result:
Faster refcounting

```

3c8c7fc7e9 Reduce performance overhead of ResourceLeakDetector
Motiviation:

The ResourceLeakDetector helps to detect and troubleshoot resource leaks and is often used even in production enviroments with a low level. Because of this its import that we try to keep the overhead as low as overhead. Most of the times no leak is detected (as all is correctly handled) so we should keep the overhead for this case as low as possible.

Modifications:

- Only call getStackTrace() if a leak is reported as it is a very expensive native call. Also handle the filtering and creating of the String in a lazy fashion
- Remove the need to mantain a Queue to store the last access records
- Add benchmark

Result:

Huge decrease of performance overhead.

df568c739e Use ByteBuf#writeShort/writeMedium instead of writeBytes
Motivation:

1. Some encoders used a `ByteBuf#writeBytes` to write short constant byte array (2-3 bytes). This can be replaced with more faster `ByteBuf#writeShort` or `ByteBuf#writeMedium` which do not access the memory.
2. Two chained calls of the `ByteBuf#setByte` with constants can be replaced with one `ByteBuf#setShort` to reduce index checks.
3. The signature of method `HttpHeadersEncoder#encoderHeader` has an unnecessary `throws`.

Modifications:

1. Use `ByteBuf#writeShort` or `ByteBuf#writeMedium` instead of `ByteBuf#writeBytes` for the constants.
2. Use `ByteBuf#setShort` instead of chained call of the `ByteBuf#setByte` with constants.
3. Remove an unnecessary `throws` from `HttpHeadersEncoder#encoderHeader`.

Result:

A bit faster writes constants into buffers.

dd69a813d4 Performance improvement for HttpRequestEncoder. Insert char into the string optimized.
Motivation:

Right now HttpRequestEncoder does insertion of slash for url like http://localhost?pararm=1 before the question mark. It is done not effectively.

Modification:

Code:

new StringBuilder(len + 1)
                .append(uri, 0, index)
                .append(SLASH)
                .append(uri, index, len)
                .toString();
Replaced with:

new StringBuilder(uri)
                .insert(index, SLASH)
                .toString();
Result:

Faster HttpRequestEncoder. Additional small test. Attached benchmark in PR.

aa38b6a769 Prevent unnecessary allocations in the StringUtil#escapeCsv
Motivation:

A `StringUtil#escapeCsv` creates new `StringBuilder` on each value even if the same string is returned in the end.

Modifications:

Create new `StringBuilder` only if it really needed. Otherwise, return the original string (or just trimmed substring).

Result:

Less GC load. Up to 4x faster work for not changed strings.

3cc4052963 New native transport for kqueue
Motivation:
We currently don't have a native transport which supports kqueue https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=kqueue&sektion=2. This can be useful for BSD systems such as MacOS to take advantage of native features, and provide feature parity with the Linux native transport.

Modifications:
- Make a new transport-native-unix-common module with all the java classes and JNI code for generic unix items. This module will build a static library for each unix platform, and included in the dynamic libraries used for JNI (e.g. transport-native-epoll, and eventually kqueue).
- Make a new transport-native-unix-common-tests module where the tests for the transport-native-unix-common module will live. This is so each unix platform can inherit from these test and ensure they pass.
- Add a new transport-native-kqueue module which uses JNI to directly interact with kqueue

Result:
JNI support for kqueue.

e482d933f7 Add 'io.netty.tryAllocateUninitializedArray' system property which allows to allocate byte[] without memset in Java9+
Motivation:

Java9 added a new method to Unsafe which allows to allocate a byte[] without memset it. This can have a massive impact in allocation times when the byte[] is big. This change allows to enable this when using Java9 with the io.netty.tryAllocateUninitializedArray property when running Java9+. Please note that you will need to open up the jdk.internal.misc package via '--add-opens java.base/jdk.internal.misc=ALL-UNNAMED' as well.

Modifications:

Allow to allocate byte[] without memset on Java9+

Result:

Better performance when allocate big heap buffers and using java9.

016629fe3b Replace system.out.println with InternalLoggerFactory
Motivation:

There are two files that still use `system.out.println` to log their status

Modification:

Replace `system.out.println` with a `debug` function inside an instance of `InternalLoggerFactory`

Result:

Introduce an instance of `InternalLoggerFactory` in class `AbstractMicrobenchmark.java` and `AbstractSharedExecutorMicrobenchmark.java`

743d2d374c SslHandler benchmark and SslEngine multiple packets benchmark
Motivation:
We currently don't have a benchmark which includes SslHandler. The SslEngine benchmarks also always include a single TLS packet when encoding/decoding. In practice when reading data from the network there may be multiple TLS packets present and we should expand the benchmarks to understand this use case.

Modifications:
- SslEngine benchmarks should include wrapping/unwrapping of multiple TLS packets
- Introduce SslHandler benchmarks which can also account for wrapping/unwrapping of multiple TLS packets

Result:
SslHandler and SslEngine benchmarks are more comprehensive.

f9001b9fc0 HTTP/2 move internal HPACK classes to the http2 package
Motivation:
The internal.hpack classes are no longer exposed in our public APIs and can be made package private in the http2 package.

Modifications:
- Make the hpack classes package private in the http2 package

Result:
Less APIs exposed as public.

461f9a1212 Allow to obtain informations of used direct and heap memory for ByteBufAllocator implementations
Motivation:

Often its useful for the user to be able to get some stats about the memory allocated via an allocator.

Modifications:

- Allow to obtain the used heap and direct memory for an allocator
- Add test case

Result:

Fixes [#6341]

90a61046c7 Add benchmarks for UnpooledUnsafeNoCleanerDirectByteBuf vs UnpooledUnsafeDirectByteBuf
Motivation:

Issue [#6349] brought up the idea to not use UnpooledUnsafeNoCleanerDirectByteBuf by default. To decide what to do a benchmark is needed.

Modifications:

Add benchmarks for UnpooledUnsafeNoCleanerDirectByteBuf vs UnpooledUnsafeDirectB
yteBuf

Result:

Better idea about impact of using UnpooledUnsafeNoCleanerDirectByteBuf.

d73477c7bd Add benchmarks for SSLEngine implementations
Motivation:

As we provide our own SSLEngine implementation we should have benchmarks to compare it against JDK impl.

Modifications:

Add benchmarks for wrap / unwrap and handshake performance.

Result:

Benchmarks FTW.

a80d3411ee Move all the microbenchmark code into one directory.
Motivation:

Allmost all our benchmarks are in src/main/java but a few are in src/test/java. We should make it consistent.

Modifications:

Move everything to src/main/java

Result:

Consistent code base.

66b9be3a46 Allow to allign allocated Buffers
Motivation:

64-byte alignment is recommended by the Intel performance guide (https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/practical-intel-avx-optimization-on-2nd-generation-intel-core-processors) for data-structures over 64 bytes.
Requiring padding to a multiple of 64 bytes allows for using SIMD instructions consistently in loops without additional conditional checks. This should allow for simpler and more efficient code.

Modification:

At the moment cache alignment must be setup manually. But probably it might be taken from the system. The original code was introduced by @normanmaurer https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/4726/files

Result:

Buffer alignment works better than miss-align cache.

3482651e0c HTTP/2 Non Active Stream RFC Corrections
Motivation:
codec-http2 couples the dependency tree state with the remainder of the stream state (Http2Stream). This makes implementing constraints where stream state and dependency tree state diverge in the RFC challenging. For example the RFC recommends retaining dependency tree state after a stream transitions to closed [1]. Dependency tree state can be exchanged on streams in IDLE. In practice clients may use stream IDs for the purpose of establishing QoS classes and therefore retaining this dependency tree state can be important to client perceived performance. It is difficult to limit the total amount of state we retain when stream state and dependency tree state is combined.

Modifications:
- Remove dependency tree, priority, and weight related items from public facing Http2Connection and Http2Stream APIs. This information is optional to track and depends on the flow controller implementation.
- Move all dependency tree, priority, and weight related code from DefaultHttp2Connection to WeightedFairQueueByteDistributor. This is currently the only place which cares about priority. We can pull out the dependency tree related code in the future if it is generally useful to expose for other implementations.
- DefaultHttp2Connection should explicitly limit the number of reserved streams now that IDLE streams are no longer created.

Result:
More compliant with the HTTP/2 RFC.

e13da218e9 HTTP/2 revert Http2FrameWriter throws API change
Motivation:
2fd42cfc6b fixed a bug related to encoding headers but it also introduced a throws statement onto the Http2FrameWriter methods which write headers. This throws statement makes the API more verbose and is not necessary because we can communicate the failure in the ChannelFuture that is returned by these methods.

Modifications:
- Remove throws from all Http2FrameWriter methods.

Result:
Http2FrameWriter APIs do not propagate checked exceptions.
