Motivation:
io.netty.http2.validateContentLength SystemProperty was added as a way
to opt-out for compabitility for libraries/applications that violated
the RFC's content-length matching requirements [1] but have not yet been
fixed. This SystemProperty has been around for a few months now and it
is assumed these issues have now been addressed in 3rd party code.
[1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-8.1.2.6
Modifications:
- Remove the io.netty.http2.validateContentLength SystemProperty,
preventing folks from opting out of RFC's required content-length
matching.
Result:
No more escape hatch in H2 for content-length matching enforcement.
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 keep bitwise operations simple and easy to understand.
Modification:
Simplify few Bitwise operations.
Result:
Less complicated bitwise operation code
Motivation:
Let's have fewer warnings about broken, missing, or abuse of javadoc comments.
Modification:
Added descriptions to throws clauses that were missing them.
Remove link clauses from throws clauses - these are implied.
Turned some javadoc comments into block comments because they were not applied to APIs.
Use code clauses instead of code tags.
Result:
Fewer javadoc crimes.
Motivation:
We cannot control when "the system" reuses file descriptors.
This makes any test that assert on the behaviour of closed file descriptors inherently racy.
Modification:
Allow the EpollSocketChannelConfigTest socketoption tests a few tries to get the correct assertion on the behaviour of closed socket file descriptors.
Result:
The EpollSocketChannelConfigTest should now be much less flaky.
Motivation:
We should get rid of the unnecessary toString calls because they're redundant in nature.
Modification:
Removed unnecessary toString calls.
Result:
Better code
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:
Code that isn't used, or has better alternatives in the JDK should be removed or replaced, respectively.
Modification:
Remove dead code in DefaultPromise.
Replace the synchronised-based reachability fence in ResourceLeakDetector, with the JDK Reference.reachabilityFence.
Result:
Cleaner code
Bootstrap methods now return Future<Channel> instead of ChannelFuture
Motivation:
In #8516 it was proposed to at some point remove the specialised ChannelFuture and ChannelPromise.
Or at least make them not extend Future and Promise, respectively.
One pain point encountered in this discussion is the need to get access to the channel object after it has been initialised, but without waiting for the channel registration to propagate through the pipeline.
Modification:
Add a Bootstrap.createUnregistered method, which will return a Channel directly.
All other Bootstrap methods that previously returned ChannelFuture now return Future<Channel>
Result:
It's now possible to obtain an initialised but unregistered channel from a bootstrap, without blocking.
And the other bootstrap methods now only release their channels through the result of their futures, preventing racy access to the channels.
Motivation:
This bug could occasionally cause SSL handshakes to time out, because the server-side handshake would fail to resume its event loop.
Modification:
Async delegate SSL tasks now lower their NEED_TASK status after they have executed, but before they run their completion callback.
This is important because the completion callback could be querying the handshake status.
This could cause the task delegator thread and the event look to race.
If the event look queries the handshake status first, it might think that it still needs to delegate another task.
If this happens, the delegator find a null task, and then fail to resume the event loop, causing the handshake to stall.
Result:
This data race no longer causes handshake timeouts.
Motivation:
We need to ensure we call wrap as long as there is something left to be send to the remote peer in cases of non-application data (like for example alerts).
Modifications:
Check the pending data and based on it return NEED_WRAP even when the handshake was done.
Result:
Always produce alerts etc
Motivation:
We should have guards in place to check increment or decrement count in `ReferenceCountUtil`. Increment and Decrement counts must be a positive integer.
Modification:
Added `ObjectUtil#checkPositive` checks.
Result:
Prevent release due to invalid count.
Motivation:
We the build failed we should ensure we also include hs_err* files as it may have failed due a native crash
Modifications:
Adjust path matching to include hs_err as well
Result:
Easier to debug native crashes
Add an ByteBuf -> Buffer adaptor
Motivation:
For migration of APIs from `ByteBuf` to `Buffer` sometime we may have to bridge APIs which use a `ByteBuf` (eg: `ByteToMessageDecoder` at the moment) to APIs that use a `Buffer` even when the allocator for the `ByteBuf` isn't migrated to use `ByteBufAllocatorAdaptor`.
Modification:
- Add a simple copy adaptor that copies all data from `ByteBuf` to a new `Buffer`.
- I noticed we do not have a `writeBytes` method with offsets, so added that too.
Result:
One more adaptor to bridge old and new buffer APIs.
Motivation:
There is no decoder and encoder for TCP based DNS.
Result:
- Added decoder and encoder
- Added tests
- Added example
Result:
Be able to decode and encode TCP based dns

Motivation:
Due a bug in the statemachine we produced an decoding error when the GZIP footer was fragmented in some cases
Modifications:
- Fix statemachine
- Add testcase
Result:
Correctly decode GZIP in all cases
Motivation:
Since Java 7, there are new constructors available that allow us to avoid initialising the stack traces of certain exceptions.
Modification:
Use these constructors instead of overriding Throwable.fillInStackTrace.
Result:
Cleaner code
Motivation:
Users may want to clear the cache manually. For this it should be possible to access it first.
Modifications:
Change the visibility to public
Result:
Be able to clear the cache manually. Related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11519
Motivation:
750d235 did introduce a change in ApplicationProtocolNegotiationHandler that let the handler buffer all inbound data until the SSL handshake was completed. Due of this change a user might get buffer data forever if the SslHandler is not in the pipeline but the ApplicationProtocolNegotiationHandler was added. We should better guard the user against this "missconfiguration" of the ChannelPipeline.
Modifications:
- Remove the ApplicationProtocolNegotiationHandler when no SslHandler is present when the first message was received
- Add unit test
Result:
No possible that we buffer forever
Motivation:
While its technical impossible that a chunk is larger than 64kb it still makes things easier to read and more robust to add some size checks to LzfDecoder.
Modifications:
Check the maximum length
Result:
More robust and easier to reason about code
Motivation:
At the moment FastLzFrameEncoder depends on the buffer type. This is not needed and may cause memory copies
Modifications:
Rewrite to be able to just act on the ByteBuf
Result:
Less memory copies
Motivation:
We did observe that the mutal auth tests are flaky on windows when running on the CI. Let's disable these for now.
Modifications:
Disable mutual auth tests on windows
Result:
More stable build. Related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11489
Motivation:
For the code pattern of `Object.wait(...)` in `io.netty.util.concurrent.DefaultPromise.await0(...)`, it's better to follow the recommended code pattern according to [Object.wait(...)'s doc](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Object.html#wait()):
```
synchronized (obj) {
while (<condition does not hold>)
obj.wait();
... // Perform action appropriate to condition
}
```
Modification:
Change the `Object.wait(...)`'s code pattern in `io.netty.util.concurrent.DefaultPromise.await0(...)`.
Result:
The `Object.wait(...)`'s code pattern in `io.netty.util.concurrent.DefaultPromise.await0(...)` meets the Java doc.
Motivation:
SelfSignedCertificate generates EC/RSA key pair and this should be explicitly mentioned in JavaDoc. Currently, only "RSA" was mentioned not "EC".
Modification:
Changed RSA to EC/RSA
Result:
Correct JavaDoc
Motivation:
Brotli4j had some changes for performance improvements. So we should upgrade to the latest version of Brotli4j.
See https://github.com/hyperxpro/Brotli4j/pull/27
Modification:
Upgraded Broti4j from 1.4.2 to 1.5.0.
Result:
Up-to-date Broti4j library.
Motivation:
As the release of JDK17 is getting closer and there are ea builds already we should ensure we can actually build netty with it.
Modifications:
- Add profile for JDK17
- Remove test-code that would fail with JDK17 due the changes in 4f4d0f5366.
Result:
Be able to build and run testsuite with JDK17
Motivation:
japicmp did fix some issues related to Java16+. Let's update so we can also enable it in later java versions
Modifications:
Update to 0.15.3
Result:
Be able to use japicmp with all java versions
Motivation:
FastLzFrameDecoder currently not use the allocator to alocate the output buffer. This means that if you use the PooledByteBufAllocator you still can't make use of the pooling. Beside this the decoder also does an uncessary memory copy when no compression is used.
Modifications:
- Allocate the output buffer via the allocator
- Don't allocate and copy if we handle an uncompressed chunk
- Make use of ByteBufChecksum for a few optimizations when running on a recent JDK
Result:
Less allocations when using FastLzFrameDecoder
Motivation:
There is no test case of `StringDecoder` here
Modification:
Need to add `StringDecoder` test case
Result:
Added test case of `StringDecoder`

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:
New versions of Bouncy Castle libraries are out and we should upgrade to them.
Modification:
Upgraded all Bouncy Castle libraries to the latest version.
Result:
The latest versions of Bouncy Castle libraries.
Motivation:
As suggested in [section 5.3.4 in http2 spec](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7540#section-5.3.4):
> When a stream is removed from the dependency tree, its dependencies can be moved to become dependent on the parent of the closed stream. The weights of new dependencies are recalculated by distributing the weight of the dependency of the closed stream proportionally based on the weights of its dependencies.
For example, we have stream A and B depend on connection stream with default weights (16), and stream C depends on A with max weight (256). When stream A was closed, we move stream C to become dependent on the connection stream, then we should distribute the weight of stream A to its children (only stream C), so the new weight of stream C will be 16. If we keep the weight of stream C unchanged, it will get more resource than stream B
Modification:
- distribute weight to its children when closing a stream
- add a unit test for the case above and fix other related unit tests
Result:
More spec-compliant and more appropriate stream reprioritization

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:
JdkOpenSslEngineInteroptTest.testMutualAuthSameCerts() is flaky on the CI and so fails the PR build quite often.
Let's disable it for now until we were able to reproduce it locally and fix it.
Modifications:
Disable flaky test
Result:
More stable CI builds
__Motivation__
Upon receiving a DNS answer, we match whether the name in the question matches the name in the record. Some DNS servers we have encountered append a search domain to the record name which fails this match. eg: for question name `netty` and search domains `io` and `com`, we will do 2 queries: `netty.io.` and `netty.com.`, if the answer for `netty.io` contains `netty.com` then we ignore this record.
__Modification__
If the name in the record does not match the name in the question, append configured search domains to the question name to see if it matches the record name.
__Result__
Records names with appended search domains are still returned as valid answers.
Motivation:
We need to add `--add-exports java.base/sun.security.x509=ALL-UNNAMED` when running the tests for codec-http2 as some of the tests use SelfSignedCertificate.
Modifications:
- Add `--add-exports java.base/sun.security.x509=ALL-UNNAMED` when running the tests for codec-http2
- Ensure we export correct when running with JDK12, 13, 14 and 15 as well
Result:
No more tests failure due not be able to access classes
Motivation:
#11468 was merged but didn't fix tests completely. There is a fight between `LF` and `CRLF`. So to eliminate this, we should just get rid of them.
Modification:
Use a small sample dataset without `LF` and `CRLF`.
Result:
Simple and passing test.
