Motivation:
IPv4/6 validation methods use allocations, which can be avoided.
IPv4 parse method use StringTokenizer.
Modifications:
Rewriting IPv4/6 validation methods to avoid allocations.
Rewriting IPv4 parse method without use StringTokenizer.
Result:
IPv4/6 validation and IPv4 parsing faster up to 2-10x.
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.

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.
Motivation:
It'd be usually good to use the latest library version.
Modification:
Bumped JMH to the latest version as of today.
Result:
Now we use JMH version 1.14.1 for our benchmark.
Motivation:
It is good to have used dependencies and plugins up-to-date to fix any undiscovered bug fixed by the authors.
Modification:
Scanned dependencies and plugins and carefully updated one by one.
Result:
Dependencies and plugins are up-to-date.
Motivation:
Before release 4.1.0.Final we should update all our dependencies.
Modifications:
Update dependencies.
Result:
Up-to-date dependencies used.
Motivation:
See https://github.com/netty/netty-build/issues/5
Modifications:
Add xml-maven-plugin to check indentation and fix violations
Result:
pom.xml will be checked in the PR build
