Motivation:
When etcResolver/hosts files are parsed, FileInputStream.read(...) is internally called by
- UnixResolverDnsServerAddressStreamProvider#parseEtcResolverSearchDomains
- UnixResolverDnsServerAddressStreamProvider#parseEtcResolverOptions
- HostsFileParser#parse
This will cause the error below when BlockHound is enabled
reactor.blockhound.BlockingOperationError: Blocking call! java.io.FileInputStream#readBytes
at java.io.FileInputStream.readBytes(FileInputStream.java)
at java.io.FileInputStream.read(FileInputStream.java:255)
Modifications:
- Add whitelist entries to BlockHound configuration
- Fix typos in UnixResolverDnsServerAddressStreamProvider
- Add tests
Result:
Fixes#11004
Motivation:
Internally UnixResolverDnsServerAddressStreamProvider#parse calls FileInputStream.read(...)
when parsing the etcResolverFiles.
This will cause the error below when BlockHound is enabled
reactor.blockhound.BlockingOperationError: Blocking call! java.io.FileInputStream#readBytes
at java.io.FileInputStream.readBytes(FileInputStream.java)
at java.io.FileInputStream.read(FileInputStream.java:255)
Modifications:
- Add whitelist entry to BlockHound configuration
- Add test
Result:
Fixes#10925
Motivation:
Internally SSLEngineImpl.wrap(...) may call FileInputStream.read(...).
This will cause the error below when BlockHound is enabled
reactor.blockhound.BlockingOperationError: Blocking call! java.io.FileInputStream#readBytes
at java.io.FileInputStream.readBytes(FileInputStream.java)
at java.io.FileInputStream.read(FileInputStream.java:255)
Modifications:
- Add whitelist entry to BlockHound configuration
- Add test
Result:
Fixes#10837
Motivation:
GlobalEventExecutor.addTask was rightfully allowed to block by commit
09d38c8. However the same should have been done for
SingleThreadEventExecutor.addTask.
BlockHound is currently intercepting that call, and as a consequence,
it prevents SingleThreadEventExecutor from working properly, if addTask is
called from a thread that cannot block.
The interception is due to LinkedBlockingQueue.offer implementation,
which uses a ReentrantLock internally.
Modifications:
* Added one BlockHound exception to
io.netty.util.internal.Hidden.NettyBlockHoundIntegration for
SingleThreadEventExecutor.addTask.
* Also added unit tests for both SingleThreadEventExecutor.addTask
and GlobalEventExecutor.addTask.
Result:
SingleThreadEventExecutor.addTask can now be invoked from any thread
when BlockHound is activated.
Motivation:
When a HashedWheelTimer instance is started or stopped, its working
thread is started or stopped. These operations block the calling
thread:
- start() calls java.util.concurrent.CountDownLatch.await() to wait
for the worker thread to finish initializing;
- stop() calls java.lang.Thread.join(long) to wait for the worker
thread to exit.
BlockHound detects these calls and as a consequence, prevents
HashedWheelTimer from working properly, if it is started or stopped
in a thread that is not allowed to block.
Modifications:
Added two more BlockHound exceptions to
io.netty.util.internal.Hidden.NettyBlockHoundIntegration: one
for HashedWheelTimer.start() and one for HashedWheelTimer.stop().
Result:
HashedWheelTimer can now be started and stopped properly when
BlockHound is activated.
Motivation:
https in xmlns URIs does not work and will let the maven release plugin fail:
```

Modifications:
Use http for xmlns
Result:
Be able to use maven release plugin
Motivation:
HTTP is a plaintext protocol which means that someone may be able
to eavesdrop the data. To prevent this, HTTPS should be used whenever
possible. However, maintaining using https:// in all URLs may be
difficult. The nohttp tool can help here. The tool scans all the files
in a repository and reports where http:// is used.
Modifications:
- Added nohttp (via checkstyle) into the build process.
- Suppressed findings for the websites
that don't support HTTPS or that are not reachable
Result:
- Prevent using HTTP in the future.
- Encourage users to use HTTPS when they follow the links they found in
the code.
Motivation:
junit deprecated Assert.assertThat(...)
Modifications:
Use MatcherAssert.assertThat(...) as replacement for deprecated method
Result:
Less deprecation warnings
Motivation:
We need to also add -XX:+AllowRedefinitionToAddDeleteMethods for JDK15 and 16 as otherwise blockhound will not work
Modifications:
Add profiles for JDK15 and JDK16
Result:
Blockhound tests pass again
Motivation:
SSLEngineImpl.unwrap(...) may call FileInputStream.read(...) internally when TLS1.3 is used. This will cause an BlockingOperationError when BlockHound is enabled.
For more details see https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/security-dev/2020-August/022271.html
Modifications:
- Add whitelist entry to BlockHound config for now
- Update NettyBlockHoundIntegrationTest to include testing for this workaround
Result:
No BlockingOperationError when TLS1.3 is used with JDK SSL implementation and BlockHound is enabled
Motivation:
When BlockHound is installed,
ReferenceCountedOpenSslClientContext$ExtendedTrustManagerVerifyCallback.verify
is reported as blocking call.
Modifications:
Add allowBlockingCallsInside configuration for
ReferenceCountedOpenSslClientContext$ExtendedTrustManagerVerifyCallback.verify
Result:
Fixes#10384
Motivation:
Different versions of the JDK use different TLS versions by default. We should define the versions explicit
Modifications:
Explicit specify TLSv1.2
Result:
Blockhound tests pass on JDK14 as well
Motivation:
JDK 14 was released and need some special settings to be able to build with. Also there seems to be one regression that we need to workaround for now.
Modifications:
- Add maven profile for JDK 14
- Update blockhound version to be able to work on JDK 14
- Add workaround for possible JDK 14 regression
Result:
Be able to build on JDK 14
