Motivation:
SslHandler.unwrap() does not evaluate the handshake status of
SSLEngine.unwrap() when the status of SSLEngine.unwrap() is CLOSED.
It is not correct because the status does not reflect the state of the
handshake currently in progress, accoding to the API documentation of
SSLEngineResult.Status.
Also, sslCloseFuture can be notified earlier than handshake notification
because we call sslCloseFuture.trySuccess() before evaluating handshake
status.
Modifications:
- Notify sslCloseFuture after the unwrap loop is finished
- Add more assertions to SocketSslEchoTest
Result:
Potentially fix the regression caused by:
- e9685ea45a
Motivation:
We have a few sporadic test failures which are only easily reproduceable
in our CI machine. To get more information about the failure, we need
heap and full thread dump at the moment of failure.
Modifications:
- Add TestUtils.dump() method to dump heap and threads
- Modify SocketGatheringWriteTest and SocketSslEchoTest to call
TestUtils.dump() on failure
Result:
We get more information about the test failure.
Related: #3125
Motivation:
We did not expose a way to initiate TLS renegotiation and to get
notified when the renegotiation is done.
Modifications:
- Add SslHandler.renegotiate() so that a user can initiate TLS
renegotiation and get the future that's notified on completion
- Make SslHandler.handshakeFuture() return the future for the most
recent handshake so that a user can get the future of the last
renegotiation
- Add the test for renegotiation to SocketSslEchoTest
Result:
Both client-initiated and server-initiated renegotiations are now
supported properly.

Motivation:
In 4.1, we were not able to change the type of the HTTP header name and
value constants from String to AsciiString due to backward compatibility
reasons.
Instead of breaking backward compatibility in 4.1, we introduced new
types called HttpHeaderNames and HttpHeaderValues which provides the
AsciiString version of the constants, and then deprecated
HttpHeaders.Names/Values.
We should make the same changes while deleting the deprecated classes
activaly.
Modifications:
- Remove HttpHeaders.Names/Values and RtspHeaders
- Add HttpHeaderNames/Values and RtspHeaderNames/Values
- Make HttpHeaderValues.WEBSOCKET lowercased because it's actually
lowercased in all WebSocket versions but the oldest one
- Do not use AsciiString.equalsIgnoreCase(CharSeq, CharSeq) if one of
the parameters are AsciiString
- Avoid using AsciiString.toString() repetitively
- Change the parameter type of some methods from String to
CharSequence
Result:
A user who upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1 first and removed the references to
the deprecated classes and methods can easily upgrade from 4.1 to 5.0.
Related: #2964
Motivation:
Writing a zero-length FileRegion to an NIO channel will lead to an
infinite loop.
Modification:
- Do not write a zero-length FileRegion by protecting with proper 'if'.
- Update the testsuite
Result:
Another bug fixed
Motivation:
We see occational failures in the datagram tests saying 'address already
in use' when we attempt to bind on a port returned by
TestUtils.getFreePort().
It turns out that TestUtils.getFreePort() only checks if TCP port is
available.
Modifications:
Also check if UDP port is available, so that the datagram tests do not
fail because of the 'address already in use' error during a bind
attempt.
Result:
Less chance of datagram test failures
Motivation:
So far, we relied on the domain name resolution mechanism provided by
JDK. It served its purpose very well, but had the following
shortcomings:
- Domain name resolution is performed in a blocking manner.
This becomes a problem when a user has to connect to thousands of
different hosts. e.g. web crawlers
- It is impossible to employ an alternative cache/retry policy.
e.g. lower/upper bound in TTL, round-robin
- It is impossible to employ an alternative name resolution mechanism.
e.g. Zookeeper-based name resolver
Modification:
- Add the resolver API in the new module: netty-resolver
- Implement the DNS-based resolver: netty-resolver-dns
.. which uses netty-codec-dns
- Make ChannelFactory reusable because it's now used by
io.netty.bootstrap, io.netty.resolver.dns, and potentially by other
modules in the future
- Move ChannelFactory from io.netty.bootstrap to io.netty.channel
- Deprecate the old ChannelFactory
- Add ReflectiveChannelFactory
Result:
It is trivial to resolve a large number of domain names asynchronously.
Motivation:
Currently the Executor created by (Nio|Epoll)EventLoopGroup is not correctly shutdown.
This might lead to resource shortages, due to resources not being freed asap.
Modifications:
If (Nio|Epoll)EventLoopGroup create their internal Executor via a constructor
provided `ExecutorServiceFactory` object or via
MultithreadEventLoopGroup.newDefaultExecutorService(...) the ExecutorService.shutdown()
method will be called after (Nio|Epoll)EventLoopGroup is shutdown.
ExecutorService.shutdown() will not be called if the Executor object was passed
to the (Nio|Epoll)EventLoopGroup (that is, it was instantiated outside of Netty).
Result:
Correctly release resources on (Nio|Epoll)EventLoopGroup shutdown.
Motivation:
Due incorrect usage of CompositeByteBuf a buffer leak was introduced.
Modifications:
Correctly handle tests with CompositeByteBuf.
Result:
No more buffer leaks
Motivation:
On linux with glibc >= 2.14 it is possible to send multiple DatagramPackets with one syscall. This can be a huge performance win and so we should support it in our native transport.
Modification:
- Add support for sendmmsg by reuse IovArray
- Factor out ThreadLocal support of IovArray to IovArrayThreadLocal for better separation as we use IovArray also without ThreadLocal in NativeDatagramPacketArray now
- Introduce NativeDatagramPacketArray which is used for sendmmsg(...)
- Implement sendmmsg(...) via jni
- Expand DatagramUnicastTest to test also sendmmsg(...)
Result:
Netty now automatically use sendmmsg(...) if it is supported and we have more then 1 DatagramPacket in the ChannelOutboundBuffer and flush() is called.
Motivation:
On linux it is possible to use the sendMsg(...) system call to write multiple buffers with one system call when using datagram/udp.
Modifications:
- Implement the needed changes and make use of sendMsg(...) if possible for max performance
- Add tests that test sending datagram packets with all kind of different ByteBuf implementations.
Result:
Performance improvement when using CompoisteByteBuf and EpollDatagramChannel.
Motivation:
The test procedure is unstable when testing quick time (factor less or equal to 1). Changing to default 10ms in this case will force time to be correct and time to be checked only when factor is >= 2.
Modifications:
When factor is <= 1, minimalWaitBetween is 10ms
Result:
Hoping this version is finally stable.
Motivation:
It seems that in certain conditions, the write back from the server is so quick that the handler has no time to compute traffic shaping. So 10ms of wait before acknowledging is added in server side.
Modifications:
Add 10ms waiting before server ackonwledge the client.
Result:
The timing is now suppsed to be stable.
Motivation:
Test seems not yet stable (20ms instead of 40ms), so this small fix provides a "lightest" check.
If this is not passing again in master, one could deactivate this test by commenting the assertTrue in line 431.
Modification:
Divide by 2 the to be compared elapse time.
Result:
Locally this test is now passing.
Motivation:
The test procedure is unstable due to not enough precise timestamping
during the check.
Modifications:
Reducing the test cases and cibling "stable" test ("timestamp-able")
bring more stability to the tests.
Result:
Tests for TrafficShapingHandler seem more stable (whatever using JVM 6,
7 or 8).
Motivation:
Due a regression NioSocketChannel.doWrite(...) will throw a ClassCastException if you do something like:
channel.write(bytebuf);
channel.write(fileregion);
channel.flush();
Modifications:
Correctly handle writing of different message types by using the correct message count while loop over them.
Result:
No more ClassCastException
Related issue: #2764
Motivation:
EpollSocketChannel.writeFileRegion() does not handle the case where the
position of a FileRegion is non-zero properly.
Modifications:
- Improve SocketFileRegionTest so that it tests the cases where the file
transfer begins from the middle of the file
- Add another jlong parameter named 'base_off' so that we can take the
position of a FileRegion into account
Result:
Improved test passes. Corruption is gone.
Motivation:
Master test seems not ok as in 4.1 in some tests so relax the internal time check but keeping the outside check.
Modifications:
Comment the assertTrue regarding the internal time test and extending to 15s the tests using Exec.
Result:
No more false negative tests (until Master is stable enough to recheck the condition of validation).
Motivation:
Currently Traffic Shaping is using 1 timer only and could lead to
"partial" wrong bandwidth computation when "short" time occurs between
adding used bytes and when the TrafficCounter updates itself and finally
when the traffic is computed.
Indeed, the TrafficCounter is updated every x delay and it is at the
same time saved into "lastXxxxBytes" and set to 0. Therefore, when one
request the counter, it first updates the TrafficCounter with the added
used bytes. If this value is set just before the TrafficCounter is
updated, then the bandwidth computation will use the TrafficCounter with
a "0" value (this value being reset once the delay occurs). Therefore,
the traffic shaping computation is wrong in rare cases.
Secondly the traffic shapping should avoid if possible the "Timeout"
effect by not stopping reading or writing more than a maxTime, this
maxTime being less than the TimeOut limit.
Thirdly the traffic shapping in read had an issue since the readOp
was not set but should, turning in no read blocking from socket
point of view.
Modifications:
The TrafficCounter has 2 new methods that compute the time to wait
according to read or write) using in priority the currentXxxxBytes (as
before), but could used (if current is at 0) the lastXxxxxBytes, and
therefore having more chance to take into account the real traffic.
Moreover the Handler could change the default "max time to wait", which
is by default set to half of "standard" Time Out (30s:2 = 15s).
Finally we add the setAutoRead(boolean) accordingly to the situation,
as proposed in #2696 (this pull request is in error for unknown reason).
Result:
The Traffic Shaping is better take into account (no 0 value when it
shouldn't) and it tries to not block traffic more than Time Out event.
Moreover the read is really stopped from socket point of view.
This version is similar to #2388 and #2450.
This version is for Master, and includes the #2696 pull request
to ease the merge process.
Including also #2748
The test minimizes time check by reducing to 66ms steps (55s).

Motivation:
Prior to this commit, Netty's non blocking EventLoops
were each assigned a fixed thread by which all of the
EventLoop's I/O and handler logic would be performed.
While this is a fine approach for most users of Netty,
some advanced users require more flexibility in
scheduling the EventLoops.
Modifications:
Remove all direct usages of threads in MultithreadEventExecutorGroup,
SingleThreadEventExecutor et al., and introduce an Executor
abstraction instead.
The way to think about this change is, that each
iteration of an eventloop is now a task that gets scheduled
in a ForkJoinPool.
While the ForkJoinPool is the default, one also has the
ability to plug in his/her own Executor (aka thread pool)
into a EventLoop(Group).
Result:
Netty hands off thread management to a ForkJoinPool by default.
Users can also provide their own thread pool implementation and
get some control over scheduling Netty's EventLoops
Motivation:
epoll transport fails on gathering write of more then 1024 buffers. As linux supports max. 1024 iov entries when calling writev(...) the epoll transport throws an exception.
Thanks again to @blucas to provide me with a reproducer and so helped me to understand what the issue is.
Modifications:
Make sure we break down the writes if to many buffers are uses for gathering writes.
Result:
Gathering writes work with any number of buffers
Motivation:
Persuit for the consistency in method naming
Modifications:
- Remove the 'get' prefix from all HTTP/SPDY message classes
- Fix some inspector warnings
Result:
Consistency
Motivation:
We have quite a bit of code duplication between HTTP/1, HTTP/2, SPDY,
and STOMP codec, because they all have a notion of 'headers', which is a
multimap of string names and values.
Modifications:
- Add TextHeaders and its default implementation
- Add AsciiString to replace HttpHeaderEntity
- Borrowed some portion from Apache Harmony's java.lang.String.
- Reimplement HttpHeaders, SpdyHeaders, and StompHeaders using
TextHeaders
- Add AsciiHeadersEncoder to reuse the encoding a TextHeaders
- Used a dedicated encoder for HTTP headers for better performance
though
- Remove shortcut methods in SpdyHeaders
- Remove shortcut methods in SpdyHttpHeaders
- Replace SpdyHeaders.getStatus() with HttpResponseStatus.parseLine()
Result:
- Removed quite a bit of code duplication in the header implementations.
- Slightly better performance thanks to improved header validation and
hash code calculation
Motivation:
We have different message aggregator implementations for different
protocols, but they are very similar with each other. They all stems
from HttpObjectAggregator. If we provide an abstract class that provide
generic message aggregation functionality, we will remove their code
duplication.
Modifications:
- Add MessageAggregator which provides generic message aggregation
- Reimplement all existing aggregators using MessageAggregator
- Add DecoderResultProvider interface and extend it wherever possible so
that MessageAggregator respects the state of the decoded message
Result:
Less code duplication
Motivation:
Some users already use an SSLEngine implementation in finagle-native. It
wraps OpenSSL to get higher SSL performance. However, to take advantage
of it, finagle-native must be compiled manually, and it means we cannot
pull it in as a dependency and thus we cannot test our SslHandler
against the OpenSSL-based SSLEngine. For an instance, we had #2216.
Because the construction procedures of JDK SSLEngine and OpenSslEngine
are very different from each other, we also need to provide a universal
way to enable SSL in a Netty application.
Modifications:
- Pull netty-tcnative in as an optional dependency.
http://netty.io/wiki/forked-tomcat-native.html
- Backport NativeLibraryLoader from 4.0
- Move OpenSSL-based SSLEngine implementation into our code base.
- Copied from finagle-native; originally written by @jpinner et al.
- Overall cleanup by @trustin.
- Run all SslHandler tests with both default SSLEngine and OpenSslEngine
- Add a unified API for creating an SSL context
- SslContext allows you to create a new SSLEngine or a new SslHandler
with your PKCS#8 key and X.509 certificate chain.
- Add JdkSslContext and its subclasses
- Add OpenSslServerContext
- Add ApplicationProtocolSelector to ensure the future support for NPN
(NextProtoNego) and ALPN (Application Layer Protocol Negotiation) on
the client-side.
- Add SimpleTrustManagerFactory to help a user write a
TrustManagerFactory easily, which should be useful for those who need
to write an alternative verification mechanism. For example, we can
use it to implement an unsafe TrustManagerFactory that accepts
self-signed certificates for testing purposes.
- Add InsecureTrustManagerFactory and FingerprintTrustManager for quick
and dirty testing
- Add SelfSignedCertificate class which generates a self-signed X.509
certificate very easily.
- Update all our examples to use SslContext.newClient/ServerContext()
- SslHandler now logs the chosen cipher suite when handshake is
finished.
Result:
- Cleaner unified API for configuring an SSL client and an SSL server
regardless of its internal implementation.
- When native libraries are available, OpenSSL-based SSLEngine
implementation is selected automatically to take advantage of its
performance benefit.
- Examples take advantage of this modification and thus are cleaner.
Motivation:
When writing data from a server before the ssl handshake completes may not be written at all to the remote peer
if nothing else is written after the handshake was done.
Modification:
Correctly try to write pending data after the handshake was complete
Result:
Correctly write out all pending data
Motivation:
4 and 5 were diverged long time ago and we recently reverted some of the
early commits in master. We must make sure 4.1 and master are not very
different now.
Modification:
Fix found differences
Result:
4.1 and master got closer.
Motivation:
Due to the complexity of handling deregistration and re-registration of
a channel, we previously decided to remove the deregister() operation
completely to simplify our code. However, we realized that it shouldn't
be that complicated to implement it during our discussion about making
I/O scheduling more flexible and more customizable [1], and thus the
removal of deregistration and re-registration is unnecessary now.
Modification:
- Revert commit c149f4bcc0
- Revert commit e743a27e75
- Make some additional adjustments
Result:
- deregister(), fireChannelUnregistered(), and channelRegistered() were
added back..
- Channel constructors do not require an EventLoop anymore.
[1] https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2250
Motivation:
At the moment ChanneConfig.setAutoRead(false) only is guaranteer to not have an extra channelRead(...) triggered when used from within the channelRead(...) or channelReadComplete(...) method. This is not the correct behaviour as it should also work from other methods that are triggered from within the EventLoop. For example a valid use case is to have it called from within a ChannelFutureListener, which currently not work as expected.
Beside this there is another bug which is kind of related. Currently Channel.read() will not work as expected for OIO as we will stop try to read even if nothing could be read there after one read operation on the socket (when the SO_TIMEOUT kicks in).
Modifications:
Implement the logic the right way for the NIO/OIO/SCTP and native transport, specific to the transport implementation. Also correctly handle Channel.read() for OIO transport by trigger a new read if SO_TIMEOUT was catched.
Result:
It is now also possible to use ChannelConfig.setAutoRead(false) from other methods that are called from within the EventLoop and have direct effect.
Motivation:
Currently, the SPDY frame encoding and decoding code is based upon
the ChannelHandler abstraction. This requires maintaining multiple
versions for 3.x and 4.x (and possibly 5.x moving forward).
Modifications:
The SPDY frame encoding and decoding code is separated from the
ChannelHandler and SpdyFrame abstractions. Also test coverage is
improved.
Result:
SpdyFrameCodec now implements the ChannelHandler abstraction and is
responsible for creating and handling SpdyFrame objects.
Motivation:
The epoll testsuite tests the epoll transport only against itself (i.e. epoll x epoll only). We should test the epoll transport also against the well-tested NIO transport, too.
Modifications:
- Make SocketTestPermutation extensible and reusable so that the epoll testsuite can take advantage of it.
- Rename EpollTestUtils to EpollSocketTestPermutation and make it extend SocketTestPermutation.
- Overall clean-up of SocketTestPermutation
- Use Arrays.asList() for simplicity
- Add combo() method to remove code duplication
Result:
The epoll transport is now also tested against the NIO transport. SocketTestPermutation got cleaner.
Motivation:
We are seeing EpollSocketSslEchoTest does not finish itself while its I/O thread is busy. Jenkins should have terminated them when the global build timeout reaches, but Jenkins seems to fail to do so. What's more interesting is that Jenkins will start another job before the EpollSocketSslEchoTest is terminated, and Linux starts to oom-kill them, impacting the uptime of the CI service.
Modifications:
- Set timeout for all test cases in SocketSslEchoTest so that all SSL tests terminate themselves when they take too long.
- Fix a bug where the epoll testsuite uses non-daemon threads which can potentially prevent JVM from quitting.
- (Cleanup) Separate boss group and worker group just like we do for NIO/OIO transport testsuite.
Result:
Potentially more stable CI machine.
