Motivation:
HttpObjectEncoder allocates a new buffer when encoding the initial line and headers, and also allocates a buffer when encoding the trailers. The allocation always uses the default size of 256. This may lead to consistent under allocation and require a few resize/copy operations which can cause GC/memory pressure.
Modifications:
- Introduce a weighted average which tracks the historical size of encoded data and uses this as an estimate for future buffer allocations
Result:
Better approximation of buffer sizes.
Motivation:
ServerCookieEncoder’s javadoc contains some invalid copy-pasting from
ClientCookieEncoder.
Modifications:
* As per RFC6265, multiple cookies are sent as separate Set-Cookie
response headers.
* Fix code sample
Result:
Proper javadoc
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:
Issue #6695 states that there is an issue when writing empty content via HttpResponseEncoder.
Modifications:
Add two test-cases.
Result:
Verified that all works as expected.
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:
Right now HttpRequestEncoder does insertion of slash for url like http://localhost?pararm=1 before the question mark. It is done not effectively.
Modification:
Code:
new StringBuilder(len + 1)
.append(uri, 0, index)
.append(SLASH)
.append(uri, index, len)
.toString();
Replaced with:
new StringBuilder(uri)
.insert(index, SLASH)
.toString();
Result:
Faster HttpRequestEncoder. Additional small test. Attached benchmark in PR.
Benchmark Mode Cnt Score Error Units

HttpRequestEncoderInsertBenchmark.oldEncoder thrpt 40 3284236.960 ± 134433.217 ops/s
Motivation:
A life cycle of QueryStringEncoder is simple: create, append params, convert to String. Current realization collect params in the list, and calculate an URI string in `toString` method. We can simplify this: don't store params to the list, and immediately append parameters to the `StringBuilder`.
Modifications:
- Remove list for params and remove a tuple class `Param`.
- Use one common `StringBuilder` and append parameters into it.
- Resolve `TODO` in the `encodeParam` method.
Result:
Less allocations (no `ArrayList`, no `Param` tuples). Second `toString` call is faster.
Motivation:
PR #6811 introduced a public utility methods to decode hex dump and its parts, but they are not visible from netty-common.
Modifications:
1. Move the `decodeHexByte`, `decodeHexDump` and `decodeHexNibble` methods into `StringUtils`.
2. Apply these methods where applicable.
3. Remove similar methods from other locations (e.g. `HpackHex` test class).
Result:
Less code duplication.
Motivation:
For multi-line headers HttpObjectDecoder uses StringBuilder.append(a).append(b) pattern that could be easily replaced with regular a + b. Also oparations with a and b moved out from concat operation to make it friendly for StringOptimizeConcat optimization and thus - faster.
Modification:
StringBuilder.append(a).append(b) reaplced with a + b. Operations with a and b moved out from concat oparation.
Result:
Code simpler to read and faster.
Motivations:
1. There are duplicated implementations of decoding hex strings. #6797
2. ByteBufUtil.HexUtil.decodeHexDump does not handle substring start
index properly and does not decode hex byte rigorously.
Modifications:
1. Function decodeHexByte is moved from QueryStringDecoder into ByteBufUtil.
2. ByteBufUtil.HexUtil.decodeHexDump is changed to use decodeHexByte.
3. Tests are Updated accordingly.
Result:
Fixed#6797 and made hex decoding functions more robust.
Motivation:
A `SeekAheadNoBackArrayException` used as check for `ByteBuf#hasArray`. The catch of exceptions carries a large overhead on stack trace filling, and this should be avoided.
Modifications:
- Remove the class `SeekAheadNoBackArrayException` and replace its usage with `if` statements.
- Use methods from `ObjectUtils` for better readability.
- Make private methods static where it make sense.
- Remove unused private methods.
Result:
Less of exception handling logic, better performance.
Motivation:
If a full HttpResponse with a Content-Length header is encoded by the HttpContentEncoder subtypes the Content-Length header is removed and the message is set to Transfer-Encoder: chunked. This is an unnecessary loss of information about the message content.
Modifications:
- If a full HttpResponse has a Content-Length header, the header is adjusted after encoding.
Result:
Complete messages continue to have the Content-Length header after encoding.
Motivation:
QueryStringDecoder has several problems:
- doesn't decode correctly path part with `+` (plus) sign in it,
- doesn't cut a `fragment` (after `#`) from query string (see RFC 3986),
- doesn't work correctly with encoding,
- treat `%%` as a percent character escaping (it's don't described in RFC).
Modifications:
- leave `+` chars in a `path` part of uri string,
- ignore `fragment` part (after `#`),
- correctly work with encoding.
- don't treat `%%` as escaping for the `%`.
Result:
Fixed issues from #6745.
Motivation:
Fix the regression recently introduced that causes already encoded responses to be encoded again as gzip
Modification:
instead of just looking for IDENTITY, anything set for Content-Encoding should be respected and left as-is
added unit tests to capture this use case
Result:
Fixes#6784
Motivation
RFC 1945 (see section 3.1) says that request lines may not have a version in which case the request is assumed to be HTTP/0.9. We don't necessarily want to support that but the existing Exception should indicate the possibility of the request being HTTP/0.9 and give the user a chance to track it down.
Modifications
Indicate in the Exception's message that the request is possibly HTTP/0.9.
Result
Fixes#6739
Motivation:
WebSocket decoding throws exceptions on failure that should cause the
pipline to close. These are currently ignored in the
`WebSocketProtocolHandler` and `WebSocketServerProtocolHandler`. In
particular, this means that messages exceding the max message size will
cause the channel to close with no reported failure.
Modifications:
Re-fire the event just before closing the socket to allow it to be
handled appropriately.
Result:
Closes [#3063].
Motivation:
If Content-Encoding: IDENTITY is used we should not try to compress the http message but just let it pass-through.
Modifications:
Remove "!"
Result:
Fixes [#6689]
Motivation:
DiskFileUpload creates temporary files for storing user uploads containing the user provided file name as part of the temporary file name. While most security problems are prevented by using "new File(userFileName).getName()" a small risk for bugs or security issues remains.
Modifications:
Use a constant string as file name and rely on the callers use of File.createTemp to ensure unique disk file names.
Result:
A slight security improvement at the cost of a little more obfuscated temp file names.
Motivation:
We miss to retain a slice before return it to the user and so an reference count error may accour later on.
Modifications:
Use readRetainedSlice(...) and so ensure we retain the buffer before hand it of to the user.
Result:
Fixes [#6626].
Motivation:
Commit #d675febf07d14d4dff82471829f974369705655a introduced a regression in QueryStringEncoder, resulting in whitespace being converted into a literal `+` sign instead of `%20`.
Modification:
Modify `encodeComponent` to pattern match and replace on the result of the call to `URLEncoder#encode`
Result:
Fixes regression
Motivation:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.3.2 states that a 204 response MUST NOT include a Content-Length header. If the HTTP version permits keep alive these responses should be treated as keeping the connection alive even if there is no Content-Length header.
Modifications:
- HttpServerKeepAliveHandler#isSelfDefinedMessageLength should account for 204 respones
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/6549.
Motivation:
Currently netty is receiving HTTP request by ByteBuf and store it as "CharSequence" on HttpObjectDecoder. During this operation, all character on ByteBuf is moving to char[] without breaking encoding.
But in process() function, type casting from byte to char does not consider msb (sign-bit). So the value over 127 can be casted wrong value. (ex : 0xec in byte -> 0xffec in char). This is type casting bug.
Modification:
Fix type casting
Result:
Non-latin characters work.
Motivation:
Some classes have fields which can be local.
Modifications:
Convert fields to the local variable when possible.
Result:
Clean up. More chances for young generation or scalar replacement.
Motivation:
We only need to add the port to the HOST header value if its not a standard port.
Modifications:
- Only add port if needed.
- Fix parsing of ipv6 address which is enclosed by [].
Result:
Fixes [#6426].
Motivation:
QueryStringDecoder and QueryStringEncoder contained some code that could either cleaned-up or optimized.
Modifications:
- Fix typos in exception messages and javadocs
- Precompile Pattern
- Make use of StringUtil.EMPTY_STRING
Result:
Faster and cleaner code.
Motivation:
Calling a static method is faster then dynamic
Modifications:
Add 'static' keyword for methods where it missed
Result:
A bit faster method calls
Motivation:
We have our own ThreadLocalRandom implementation to support older JDKs . That said we should prefer the JDK provided when running on JDK >= 7
Modification:
Using ThreadLocalRandom implementation of the JDK when possible.
Result:
Make use of JDK implementations when possible.
