Motivation:
We should use StandardSocketOptions#IP_MULTICAST_IF as default source when joing multicast groups and only try to use the localAddress if this returns null.
Modifications:
First check if StandardSocketOptions#IP_MULTICAST_IF was set and if so use the network interface when joining mulicast groups
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11541
Motivation:
Sometimes intellij fails to build because the compiler cant really figure out what to do. We can workaround this by adding some explicit casts.
Modifications:
Add explicits casts
Result:
No more problems with intellij
Motivation:
TCP FastOpen is a pure optimisation, that is opportunistically applied.
There is no reason to make it specific to the epoll transport, and in the future we could add support to other transports.
Besides, the client-side equivalent, TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT, is already transport agnostic.
Modification:
Move the TCP_FASTOPEN channel option from EpollChannelOption to ChannelOption.
Mark the field in EpollChannelOption as deprecated.
Result:
All channel options related to TCP FastOpen are now transport agnostic.
However, we still only actually support TFO on the epoll transport.
Motivation:
We should make variables `final` which are not reinstated again in code to match the code style and makes the code look better.
Modification:
Made couples of variables as `final`.
Result:
Variables marked as `final`.
Motivation:
We should get rid of unnecessary semicolons because they don't do anything in code.
Modification:
Removed unnecessary semicolons.
Result:
Better code
Motivation:
There are lots of imports which are unused. We should get rid of them to make the code look better,
Modification:
Removed unused imports.
Result:
No unused imports.
Motivation:
At the moment we not correctly propagate cancellation in some case when we use the PromiseNotifier.
Modifications:
- Add PromiseNotifier static method which takes care of cancellation
- Add unit test
- Deprecate ChannelPromiseNotifier
Result:
Correctly propagate cancellation of operation

Motivation:
The TLS handshake must be able to finish on its own, without being driven by outside read calls.
This is currently not the case when TCP FastOpen is enabled.
Reads must be permitted and marked as pending, even when a channel is not active.
This is important because, with TCP FastOpen, the handshake processing of a TLS connection will start
before the connection has been established -- before the process of connecting has even been started.
The SslHandler on the client side will add the Client Hello message to the ChannelOutboundBuffer, then
issue a `ctx.read` call for the anticipated Server Hello response, and then flush the Client Hello
message which, in the case of TCP FastOpen, will cause the TCP connection to be established.
In this transaction, it is important that the `ctx.read` call is not ignored since, if auto-read is
turned off, this could delay or even prevent the Server Hello message from being processed, causing
the server-side handshake to time out.
Modification:
Attach a listener to the SslHandler.handshakeFuture in the EchoClient, that will call ctx.read.
Result:
The SocketSslEchoTest now tests that the SslHandler can finish handshakes on its own, without being driven by 3rd party ctx.read calls.
The various channel implementations have been updated to comply with this behaviour.
Motivation:
IO transports (primarily epoll, but also applies to kqueue, nio) cant be configured with separate tail tasks queue factory -
instead single queue factory is used for both normal tasks and tail tasks.
Modifications:
Add constructor accepting tail EventLoopTaskQueueFactory to aforementioned transports
Result:
IO transports can be configured with separate tail tasks
Motivation:
Due a bug we did not pass the correct remote and localaddress to the next handler if the outbound portion of the CombinedChannelDuplexHandler was removed
Modifications:
- Call the correct connect(...) method
- Refactor tests to test that the parameters are correctly passed on
- Remvoe some code duplication in the tests
Result:
CombinedChannelDuplexHandler correctly pass parameters on
Motivation:
throw exception if there is no method, it never is null, condition is always true
Modification:
remove unnecessary condition
Result:
cleanup
Motivation:
JUnit 5 is more expressive, extensible, and composable in many ways, and it's better able to run tests in parallel.
Modifications:
Use JUnit5 in tests
Result:
Related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10757
Motivation:
NullChecks resulting in a NullPointerException or IllegalArgumentException, numeric ranges (>0, >=0) checks, not empty strings/arrays checks must never be anonymous but with the parameter or variable name which is checked. They must be specific and should not be done with an "OR-Logic" (if a == null || b == null) throw new NullPointerEx.
Modifications:
* import static relevant checks
* Replace manual checks with ObjectUtil methods
Result:
All checks needed are done with ObjectUtil, some exception texts are improved.
Fixes#11170
... number of bytes when using DatagramChannels
Motivation:
In our FixedRecvByteBufAllocator we dont continue to read if the number of bytes is less then what was configured. This is correct when using it for TCP but not when using it for UDP. When using UDP the number of bytes is the maximum of what we want to support but we often end up processing smaller datagrams in general. Because of this we should use contineReading(UncheckedBooleanSupplier) to determite if we should continue reading
Modifications:
- use contineReading(UncheckedBooleanSupplier) for DatagramChannels
Result:
Read more then once in the general case for DatagramChannels with the default config
Motivation:
Allow to configure the maximum number of messages to write per eventloop run. This can be useful to ensure we read data in a timely manner and not let writes dominate the CPU time. This is especially useful in protocols like QUIC where you need to read "fast enough" as otherwise you may not read the ACKs fast enough.
Modifications:
- Add new ChannelOption / config that allows to limit the number of messages to write per eventloop run.
- Respect this setting for DatagramChannels
Result:
Reduce the risk of having WRITES block the processing of other events in a timely manner

Motivation:
SslHandler owns the responsibility to flush non-application data
(e.g. handshake, renegotiation, etc.) to the socket. However when
TCP Fast Open is supported but the client_hello cannot be written
in the SYN the client_hello may not always be flushed. SslHandler
may not wrap/flush previously written/flushed data in the event
it was not able to be wrapped due to NEED_UNWRAP state being
encountered in wrap (e.g. peer initiated renegotiation).
Modifications:
- SslHandler to flush in channelActive() if TFO is enabled and
the client_hello cannot be written in the SYN.
- SslHandler to wrap application data after non-application data
wrap and handshake status is FINISHED.
- SocketSslEchoTest only flushes when writes are done, and waits
for the handshake to complete before writing.
Result:
SslHandler flushes handshake data for TFO, and previously flushed
application data after peer initiated renegotiation finishes.
Motivation:
At the moment its only possible to create a PendingWriteQueue via a ChannelHandlerContext.
Modifications:
Add another constructor
Result:
More flexible usage of PendingWriteQueue
Motivation:
Channels need to have their configurations applied before we can call out to user-code via handlerAdded and initChannel.
Modification:
This adds tests for this behaviour, which already works correctly.
Result:
Better test coverage.
Motivation:
For protocols like QUIC using UDP_SEGMENT (GSO) can help to reduce the
overhead quite a bit. We should support it.
Modifications:
- Add a SegmentedDatagramPacket which can be used to use UDP_SEGMENT
- Add unit test
Result:
Be able to make use of UDP_SEGMENT
Support TCP Fast Open for clients and make SslHandler take advantage
Motivation:
- TCP Fast Open allow us to send a small amount of data along side the initial SYN packet when establishing a TCP connection.
- The TLS Client Hello packet is small enough to fit in there, and is also idempotent (another requirement for using TCP Fast Open), so if we can save a round-trip when establishing TLS connections when using TFO.
Modification:
- Add support for client-side TCP Fast Open for Epoll, and also lowers the Linux kernel version requirements to 3.6.
- When adding the SslHandler to a pipeline, if TCP Fast Open is enabled for the channel (and the channel is not already active) then start the handshake early by writing it to the outbound buffer.
- An important detail to note here, is that the outbound buffer is not flushed at this point, like it would for normal handshakes. The flushing happens later as part of establishing the TCP connection.
Result:
- It is now possible for clients (on epoll) to open connections with TCP Fast Open.
- The SslHandler automatically detects when this is the case, and now send its Client Hello message as part of the initial data in the TCP Fast Open flow when available, saving a round-trip when establishing TLS connections.

Motivation:
File.createTempFile(String, String)` will create a temporary file in the system temporary directory if the 'java.io.tmpdir'. The permissions on that file utilize the umask. In a majority of cases, this means that the file that java creates has the permissions: `-rw-r--r--`, thus, any other local user on that system can read the contents of that file.
This can be a security concern if any sensitive data is stored in this file.
This was reported by Jonathan Leitschuh <jonathan.leitschuh@gmail.com> as a security problem.
Modifications:
Use Files.createTempFile(...) which will use safe-defaults when running on java 7 and later. If running on java 6 there isnt much we can do, which is fair enough as java 6 shouldnt be considered "safe" anyway.
Result:
Create temporary files with sane permissions by default.
Motivation:
We need to ensure we copy the attributes and options when bootstrap the channel as otherwise we may change the underlying Entry.
This is similar to what was reported in https://github.com/netty/netty-incubator-codec-quic/issues/152.
Modifications:
- Do a copy and re-use methods
- Add unit tests
Result:
Don't affect attributes / options of channels that are already bootstrapped
