Motivation:
HTTP/2 allows writes of 0 length data frames. However in some cases EMPTY_BUFFER is used instead of the actual buffer that was written. This may mask writes of released buffers or otherwise invalid buffer objects. It is also possible that if the buffer is invalid AbstractCoalescingBufferQueue will not release the aggregated buffer nor fail the associated promise.
Modifications:
- DefaultHttp2FrameCodec should take care to fail the promise, even if releasing the data throws
- AbstractCoalescingBufferQueue should release any aggregated data and fail the associated promise if something goes wrong during aggregation
Result:
More correct handling of invalid buffers in HTTP/2 code.
infinite loop
Motivation:
If SslHandler sets jdkCompatibilityMode to false and ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine sets jdkCompatibilityMode to true there is a chance we will get stuck in an infinite loop if the peer sends a TLS packet with length greater than 2^14 (the maximum length allowed in the TLS 1.2 RFC [1]). However there are legacy implementations which actually send larger TLS payloads than 2^14 (e.g. OpenJDK's SSLSessionImpl [2]) and in this case ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine will return BUFFER_OVERFLOW in an attempt to notify that a larger buffer is to be used, but if the buffer is already at max size this process will repeat indefinitely.

[2] http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/d5a00b1e8f78/src/share/classes/sun/security/ssl/SSLSessionImpl.java#l793
Modifications:
- Support TLS payload sizes greater than 2^14 in ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine
- ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine should throw an exception if a
BUFFER_OVERFLOW is impossible to rectify
Result:
No more infinite loop in ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine due to
BUFFER_OVERFLOW and large TLS payload lengths.
Motivation:
ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine.rejectRemoteInitiatedRenegotiation() is called in a finally block to ensure we always check for renegotiation. The problem here is that sometimes we will already shutdown the engine before we call the method which will lead to an NPE in this case as the ssl pointer was already destroyed.
Modifications:
Check that the engine is not destroyed yet before calling SSL.getHandshakeCount(...)
Result:
Fixes [#7353].
Motivation:
Some SSLEngine implementations (e.g. ReferenceCountedOpenSslContext) support unwrapping/wrapping multiple packets at a time. The SslHandler behaves differently if the SSLEngine supports this feature, but currently requires that the constructor argument between the SSLEngine creation and SslHandler are coordinated. This can be difficult, or require package private access, if extending the SslHandler.
Modifications:
- The SslHandler should inspect the SSLEngine to see if it supports jdkCompatibilityMode instead of relying on getting an extra constructor argument which maybe out of synch with the SSLEngine
Result:
Easier to override SslHandler and have consistent jdkCompatibilityMode between SSLEngine and SslHandler.
Motivation:
We should ensure we only try to load the netty-tcnative version that was compiled for the architecture we are using.
Modifications:
Include architecture into native lib name.
Result:
Only load native lib if the architecture is supported.
Motivation:
We can end up with a buffer leak if SSLEngine.wrap(...) throws.
Modifications:
Correctly release the ByteBuf if SSLEngine.wrap(...) throws.
Result:
Fixes [#7337].
Motivation:
A regression was introduced in 86e653e which had the effect that the writability was not updated for a Channel while queueing data in the SslHandler.
Modifications:
- Factor out code that will increment / decrement pending bytes and use it in AbstractCoalescingBufferQueue and PendingWriteQueue
- Add test-case
Result:
Channel writability changes are triggered again.
Motivation:
Bug in capacity calculation: occurs auto convert to string instead of sum up.
Modifications:
Use `eventName.length()` in sum.
Result:
Less trash in logs.
Motivation:
We should also enforce the handshake timeout on the server-side to allow closing connections which will not finish the handshake in an expected amount of time.
Modifications:
- Enforce the timeout on the server and client side
- Add unit test.
Result:
Fixes [#7230].
Motivation:
Even if it's a super micro-optimization (most JVM could optimize such
cases in runtime), in theory (and according to some perf tests) it
may help a bit. It also makes a code more clear and allows you to
access such methods in the test scope directly, without instance of
the class.
Modifications:
Add 'static' modifier for all methods, where it possible. Mostly in
test scope.
Result:
Cleaner code with proper 'static' modifiers.
Motivation:
Without a 'serialVersionUID' field, any change to a class will make
previously serialized versions unreadable.
Modifications:
Add missed 'serialVersionUID' field for all Serializable
classes.
Result:
Proper deserialization of previously serialized objects.
Motivation: Today when Netty encounters a general error while decoding
it treats this as a decoder exception. However, for fatal causes this
should not be treated as such, instead the fatal error should be carried
up the stack without the callee having to unwind causes. This was
probably done for byte to byte message decoder but is now done for all
decoders.
Modifications: Instead of translating any error to a decoder exception,
we let those unwind out the stack (note that finally blocks still
execute) except in places where an event needs to fire where we fire
with the error instead of wrapping in a decoder exception.
Result: Fatal errors will not be treated as innocent decoder exceptions.
Motivation:
Java9SslEngine did not correctly implement ApplicationProtocolAccessor and so returned an empty String when no extension was used while the interface contract is to return null. This lead to the situation that ApplicationProtocolNegationHandler did not correct work.
Modifications:
- Rename ApplicationProtocolAccessor.getApplicationProtocol() to getNegotiatedApplicationProtocol() which resolves the clash with the method exposed by Java9s SSLEngine.
- Correctly implement getNegotiatedApplicationProtocol() for Java9Sslengine
- Add delegate in Java9Sslengine.getApplicationProtocol() which is provided by Java9
- Adjust tests to test the correct behaviour.
Result:
Fixes [#7251].
Motivation:
Getting the latest Conscrypt goodies.
Modifications:
A few API changes have occurred, specifically in the Conscrypt
class.
Result:
Netty now builds and tests against Conscrypt 1.0.0.RC11
Motivation:
A bunch of unit tests are failing due to certificates having expired.
This has to be replaced with a newly generated certificate that has a
longer validity.
Modifications:
- generated a certificate with validity of 100 years from now
Results:
Unit tests are passing again
Motivation:
We should only try to load the native artifacts if the architecture we are currently running on is the same as the one the native libraries were compiled for.
Modifications:
Include architecture in native lib name and append the current arch when trying to load these. This will fail then if its not the same as the arch of the compiled arch.
Result:
Fixes [#7150].
Motivation:
Netty is unable to use Java9s ALPN support atm.
Modifications:
When running on Java9+ we invoke the correct methods that are exposed on the Java9+ implementation of SSLEngine and so be able to support ALPN.
This patch is based on the work of @rschmitt and so https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/6992.
Result:
Fixes#6933.
Motivation:
netty-tcnative recently change the name of the native libraries from using - to _.
Modifications:
- OpenSsl should use _ instead of - even for the classifiers to be consistent with netty-tcnative
Result:
Loading netty-tcnative works.
Motivation:
We should deprecate ApplicationProtocolNegotiator as the users should use ApplicationProtocolConfig these days.
Modifications:
Add deprecation annotations and javadocs.
Result:
Be able to make package-private in next major release.
Motivation:
When SslHandlerTest#testCompositeBufSizeEstimationGuaranteesSynchronousWrite fails it would be useful to know the SslProvider type
Modifications:
- Print the sever and client SslProvider upon failure
- Increase test timeout to 8 minutes to allow more time to run
Result:
Failures include more info to help diagnose issues.
Motivation:
DelegatingSslContext at the moment intercept newEngine calls and allow to init the SslEngine after it is created. The problem here is that this may not work the SSLEngine that is wrapped in the SslHandler when calling newHandler(...). This is because some SslContext implementations not delegate to newEngine(...) when creating the SslHandler to allow some optimizations. For this we should also allow to init the SslHandler after its creation and by default just delegate to initEngine(...).
Modifications:
Allow the user to also init the SslHandler after creation while by default init its SSLEngine after creation.
Result:
More flexible and correct code.
This reverts commit d63bb4811e as this not covered correctly all cases and so could lead to missing fireChannelReadComplete() calls. We will re-evalute d63bb4811e and resbumit a pr once we are sure all is handled correctly
Motivation:
We recently changed netty-tcnative to use underscores in its native library names.
Modifications:
Update code to use underscores when loading native library.
Result:
More consistent code.
Motivation:
SslHandlerTest#testCompositeBufSizeEstimationGuaranteesSynchronousWrite has been observed to fail on CI servers, but it is not clear why.
Modifications:
- Add more visibility into what the state was and what the condition that caused the failure was.
Result:
More visibility when the test fails.
Motivation:
Commit 4448b8f42f introduced some API breakage which we need to revert before we release.
Modifications:
- Introduce an AllocatorAwareSslEngineWrapperFactory which expose an extra method that takes a ByteBufAllocator as well.
- Revert API changes to SslEngineWrapperFactory.
Result:
API breakage reverted.
Motivation:
Its wasteful and also confusing that channelReadComplete() is called even if there was no message forwarded to the next handler.
Modifications:
- Only call ctx.fireChannelReadComplete() if at least one message was decoded
- Add unit test
Result:
Less confusing behavior. Fixes [#4312].
Motivation:
We need to ensure we not try to load any conscrypt classes directly (which means without using reflection) in the same class that is used to check if conscrypt is available. This is needed as otherwise we will have the following problem when try to use netty on java7:
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/conscrypt/BufferAllocator : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0
at io.netty.handler.ssl.ConscryptJdkSslEngineInteropTest.checkConscrypt(ConscryptJdkSslEngineInteropTest.java:49)
This regression was introduced by 4448b8f42f and detected on the CI when using:
mvn clean package -DtestJavaHome=$JAVA7_HOME
Modifications:
Move the detection code in an extra class and use it.
Result:
Works correctly also when using Java7.
Motivation:
Starting with 1.0.0.RC9, conscrypt supports a buffer allocator.
Modifications:
- Updated the creation process for the engine to pass through the
ByteBufAllocator.
- Wrap a ByteBufAllocator with an adapter for conscrypt.
- Added a property to optionally control whether conscrypt uses
Netty's buffer allocator.
Result:
Netty+conscrypt will support using Netty's ByteBufAllocator.
Motivation:
We need to ensure we only create the ResourceLeak when the constructor not throws.
Modifications:
Ensure ResourceLeakDetector.track(...) is only called if the constructor of ReferenceCoundedOpenSslEngine not throws.
Result:
No more false-positves.
Motivation:
ByteBuf#ensureWritable(int,boolean) returns an int indicating the status of the resize operation. For buffers that are unmodifiable or cannot be resized this method shouldn't throw but just return 1.
ByteBuf#ensureWriteable(int) should throw unmodifiable buffers.
Modifications:
- ReadOnlyByteBuf should be updated as described above.
- Add a unit test to SslHandler which verifies the read only buffer can be tolerated in the aggregation algorithm.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7002.
Motivation:
Lots of usages of SelfSignedCertificates were not deleting the certs at
the end of the test. This includes setupHandlers() which is used by
extending classes. Although these files will be deleted at JVM exit and
deleting them early does not free the JVM from trying to delete them at
shutdown, it's good practice to delete eagerly and since users sometimes
use tests as a form of documentation, it'd be good for them to see the
explicit deletes.
Modifications:
Add missing delete() calls to ½ of the SelfSignedCertificates-using
tests.
Result:
Tests that more clearly communicates which resources are created and
may accumulate without early delete.
Motivation:
Previously filterCipherSuites was being passed the OpenSSL-formatted
cipher names. Commit 43ae974 introduced a regression as it swapped to the
RFC/JDK format, except that user-provided ciphers were not converted and
remained in the OpenSSL format.
This mis-match would cause all user-provided to be thrown away, leading
to failure trying to set zero ciphers:
Exception in thread "main" javax.net.ssl.SSLException: failed to set cipher suite: []

Caused by: java.lang.Exception: Unable to configure permitted SSL ciphers (error:100000b1:SSL routines:OPENSSL_internal:NO_CIPHER_MATCH)
at io.netty.internal.tcnative.SSLContext.setCipherSuite(Native Method)
at io.netty.handler.ssl.ReferenceCountedOpenSslContext.<init>(ReferenceCountedOpenSslContext.java:295)
... 7 more
Modifications:
Remove the reformatting of user-provided ciphers, as they are already in
the RFC/JDK format.
Result:
No regression, and the internals stay sane using the RFC/JDK format.
Motivation:
Some ChannelOptions must be set before the Channel is really registered to have the desired effect.
Modifications:
Add another constructor argument which allows to not register the EmbeddedChannel to its EventLoop until the user calls register().
Result:
More flexible usage of EmbeddedChannel. Also Fixes [#6968].
Motivation:
6152990073 introduced a test-case in SSLEngineTest which used OpenSsl.* which should not be done as this is am abstract bass class that is also used for non OpenSsl tests.
Modifications:
Move the protocol definations into SslUtils.
Result:
Cleaner code.
Motivation:
Code introduced in 6152990073 can be cleaned up and use array initializer expressions.
Modifications:
Use array initializer expressions.
Result:
Cleaner code.
Motivation:
TLS doesn't support a way to advertise non-contiguous versions from the client's perspective, and the client just advertises the max supported version. The TLS protocol also doesn't support all different combinations of discrete protocols, and instead assumes contiguous ranges. OpenSSL has some unexpected behavior (e.g. handshake failures) if non-contiguous protocols are used even where there is a compatible set of protocols and ciphers. For these reasons this method will determine the minimum protocol and the maximum protocol and enabled a contiguous range from [min protocol, max protocol] in OpenSSL.
Modifications:
- ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine#setEnabledProtocols should determine the min/max protocol versions and enable a contiguous range
Result:
OpenSslEngine is more consistent with the JDK's SslEngineImpl and no more unexpected handshake failures due to protocol selection quirks.
Motivation:
Currently the default cipher suites are set independently between JDK and OpenSSL. We should use a common approach to setting the default ciphers. Also the OpenSsl default ciphers are expressed in terms of the OpenSSL cipher name conventions, which is not correct and may be exposed to the end user. OpenSSL should also use the RFC cipher names like the JDK defaults.
Modifications:
- Move the default cipher definition to a common location and use it in JDK and OpenSSL initialization
- OpenSSL should not expose OpenSSL cipher names externally
Result:
Common initialization and OpenSSL doesn't expose custom cipher names.
Motivation:
PR https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/6803 corrected an error in the return status of the OpenSslEngine. We should now be able to restore the SslHandler optimization.
Modifications:
- This reverts commit 7f3b75a509.
Result:
SslHandler optimization is restored.
Motivation:
Each call to SSL_write may introduce about ~100 bytes of overhead. The OpenSslEngine (based upon OpenSSL) is not able to do gathering writes so this means each wrap operation will incur the ~100 byte overhead. This commit attempts to increase goodput by aggregating the plaintext in chunks of <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246#section-6.2">2^14</a>. If many small chunks are written this can increase goodput, decrease the amount of calls to SSL_write, and decrease overall encryption operations.
Modifications:
- Introduce SslHandlerCoalescingBufferQueue in SslHandler which will aggregate up to 2^14 chunks of plaintext by default
- Introduce SslHandler#setWrapDataSize to control how much data should be aggregated for each write. Aggregation can be disabled by setting this value to <= 0.
Result:
Better goodput when using SslHandler and the OpenSslEngine.
