Motivation:
We did not guard against the case of calling malloc(0) when creating a ByteBuffer without a Cleaner. The problem is that malloc(0) can have different behaviour, it either return a null-pointer or a valid pointer that you can pass to free.
The real problem arise if Unsafe.allocateMemory(0) returns 0 and we use it as the memoryAddress of the ByteBuffer. The problem here is that native libraries test for 0 and handle it as a null-ptr. This is for example true in SSL.bioSetByteBuffer(...) which would throw a NPE when 0 is used as memoryAddress and so produced errors during SSL usage.
Modifications:
- Always allocate 1 byte as minimum (even if we ask for an empty buffer).
- Add unit test.
Result:
No more errors possible because of malloc(0).
Motivation:
We previously did not correctly take into account when we could not wrap (and so produce) the full SSL record with an alert when the SSLEngine was closed.
There are two problems here:
- If we call wrap(...) with an empty dst buffer after closeOutbound() was called we will not notify the user if we could not store the whole SSLRecord into the dst buffer and so we may produce incomplete SSLRecords
Modifications:
Add unit test which failed before.
Result:
Correctly handle the case when the dst buffer is not big enough and and alert needs to be produced.
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/7943 had a bug which caused to not have the argument passed to the delegating method.
Modifications:
Add argument to release call.
Result:
Correctly delegate method.
Motivation:
Some of the tests failed when using BoringSSL as some protocol / cipher combinations are not supported and it uses a different alert when the cert is not valid yet.
Modification:
- Remove protocol / cipher combos that are not supported by BoringSSL
- Test for different alert when using BoringSSL
Result:
Not test failures when using BoringSSL.
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/7941 proved that its easy to not correctly clear the error stack sometimes. We should do carefully test this.
Modifications:
Add a new SSLEngine wrapper that is used during tests, which verifies that the error stack is empty after each method call.
Result:
Better testing.
Motivation:
We sometimes did not correctly detect when a protocol is not enabled when using netty-tcnative as we did not take into account when the option flag is 0 (as for example in BoringSSL for SSLv2).
Modifications:
- Correctly take an option flag with 0 into account.
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7935.
Motivation:
We missed to correctly clear the error stack in one case when using the ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine. Because of this it was possible to pick up an error on an unrelated operation.
Modifications:
- Correctly clear the stack
- Add verification of empty error stack to tests.
Result:
Not possible to observe unrelated errors.
Motivation:
We did not correctly copy elements in some cases when add(index, element) was used.
Modifications:
- Correctly detect when copy is neede and when not.
- Add test case.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7938.
Netty/Transport/Native/Epoll project can be build on aarch64 platform as well.
Motivation:
To provide the support for AARCH64 architecture
Modification:
Adjusted regex for enforce plugin to also allow AARCH64.
Result:
Be able to compile on AARCH64
Motivation:
Integer autoboxing in this class (and possibly also the varargs arrays)
showed non-negligible CPU and garbage contribution when profiling a gRPC
service. grpc-java currently hardcodes use of Http2FrameLogger, set at
DEBUG level.
Modifications:
Wrap offending log statements in conditional blocks.
Result:
Garbage won't be produced by Http2FrameLogger when set to a disabled
logging level.
Motivation:
When I read the source code, I found that the comment of PoolChunk is out of date, it may confuses readers with the description about memoryMap.
Modifications:
update the last passage of the comment of the PoolChunk class.
Result:
No change to any source code , just update comment.
Motivation:
Java 11 will be out soon, so we should be able to build (and run tests) netty.
Modifications:
- Add dependency that is needed till Java 11
- Adjust tests so these also pass on Java 11 (SocketChannelImpl.close() behavious a bit differently now).
Result:
Build also works (and tests pass) on Java 11.
Motivation:
cff87de44c updated jboss-marshalling to 2.0.5.Final but this broke the ability to run tests with Java 7.
Modifications:
Only use 2.0.5.Final if compiled against Java 10 (as before 1.4.x works fine).
Result:
Be able to run tests with Java 7 on the CI.
Motivation:
Java 10 is out so we should be able to build netty with it (and run the tests).
Modifications:
- Update Mockito and JBoss Marshalling to support Java 10
- Fix unit test to not depend on specific cipher which is not present in Java 10 anymore
Result:
Netty builds (and runs all tests) when using Java 10
Motivation:
Currently, the testing-osgi is set to skip if run with java>=9. That is not necessary when using a newer version of Felix.
Modification:
Update to Felix framework 5.6.10 (which has better jpms support), add some more --add-opens to not have WARN messages, and remove the skipOsgiTestsuite setting from the parent pom.
Result:
OSGi tests run and pass on java>=9.
Motivation:
At the moment if you do a resolveAll and at least one A / AAAA record is present we will not follow any CNAMEs that are also present. This is different to how the JDK behaves.
Modifications:
- Allows follow CNAMEs.
- Add unit test.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7915.
Motivation:
We added some code to guard against thread.interrupt() in NioEventLoop but did not added a test.
Modifications:
Add testcase.
Result:
Verify that we correctly handle interrupt().
Motivation:
a598c3b69b added a upper limit for ttl but missed to also do the same for minTtl.
Modifications:
- Add upper limit for minTtl
- Add testcase.
Result:
No more IllegalArgumentException possible.
Motivation:
When a buffer is over-released, the current error message of `IllegalReferenceCountException` is `refCnt: XXX, increment: XXX`, which is confusing. The correct message should be `refCnt: XXX, decrement: XXX`.
Modifications:
Pass `-decrement` to create `IllegalReferenceCountException`.
Result:
The error message will be `refCnt: XXX, decrement: XXX` when a buffer is over-released.
Motivation:
Closed `FixedChannelPool` fails acquire and release operations with
`IllegalStateException`s. These exceptions had message
"FixedChannelPooled was closed". Here "FixedChannelPooled" looks like
a typo and should probably be "FixedChannelPool".
Modifications:
Changed exception message to "FixedChannelPool was closed".
Result:
A tiny bit cleaner exception message.
Motivation:
We had a bug-report that claimed the src buffer used by OpenSslEngine will be zero out.
Modifications:
Add testcase to ensure correct behaviour
Result:
Testcase for https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7753
Motivation:
Sometimes it's useful to disable native transports / native ssl to debug a problem. We should allow to do so with a system property so people not need to adjust code for this.
Modifications:
Add system properties which allow to disable native transport and native ssl.
Result:
Easier to disable native code usage without code changes.
Motivation:
Due a bug we did never store more then one address per hostname in DefaultDnsCache.
Modifications:
- Correctly store multiple entries per hostname
- Add tests
Result:
DefaultDnsCache correctly stores more then one entry. Also fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7882 .
Motivation:
In b47fb81799 we limited the max supported delay to match what our internal implementat can support. Because of this it was possible that DefaultDnsCache produced an IllegalArgumentException when it tried to schedule a expiration > 3 years.
Modifications:
Limit the max supported TTL to 2 years which is safe for all our EventLoop implementations.
Result:
No more exceptions when adding records to the cache with a huge TTL.
Motivation:
ChannelReadHandler is used in tests added via f4d7e8de14. In the handler we verify the number of messages we receive per read() call but missed to sometimes reset the counter which resulted in exceptions.
Modifications:
Correctly reset read counter in all cases.
Result:
No more unexpected exceptions when running LocalChannel tests.
Motivation:
HTTP responses with status of 205 should not contain a payload. We should enforce this.
Modifications:
Correctly handle responses with status 205 and payload by set Content-Length: 0 header and stripping out the content.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7888
Motivation:
Streams can be deregistered so we can't assume their existence in the stream map.
Modifications:
Add a null-check in case a stream has been deregistered.
Result:
Fixes#7898.
Motivation:
It should be possible to call setContent(Unpooled.EMPTY_BUFFER) multiple times just like its possible to do the same with a non empty buffer.
Modifications:
- Correctly reset underlying storage if called multiple times.
- Add tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/6418
Motivation:
b818852cdb added support for IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR but did not include any #ifdef statements to ensure its usable at all (which is not the case on MacOS).
Modifications:
Add #ifdef statements to check for IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR.
Result:
Compilation works again on MacOS.
Motivation:
We incorrectly called frame.release() in onHttp2GoAwayFrame which could lead to IllegalReferenceCountExceptions. The call of release() is inappropriate because the fireChannelRead() in onHttp2Frame() will handle it.
Modifications:
- Not call frame.release()
- Add a unit test
Result:
Fxies https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7892.
Motivation:
Right now to customize DNS name resolver when using DnsAddressResolverGroup
one should subclass implementation and override newNameResolver method when
in fact it's possible to collect all settings in a DnsNameResolverBuilder
instance. Described in #7749.
Modifications:
- Added new constructor for DnsNameResolverBuilder in order to delay
EventLoop specification
- Added copy() method to DnsNameResolverBuilder to provide an immutable
copy of the builder
- Added new single-argument constructor for DnsAddressResolverGroup and
RoundRobinDnsAddressResolverGroup accepting DnsNameResolverBuilder
instance
- DnsAddressResolverGroup to build a new resolver using DnsNameResolverBuilder
given instead of creating a new one
- Test cases to check that changing channelFactory after the builder was passed
to create a DnsNameResolverGroup would not propagate to the name resolver
Result:
Much easier to customize DNS settings w/o subclassing DnsAddressResolverGroup
Motivation:
DatagramPacket.recipient() doesn't return the actual destination IP, but the IP the app is bound to.
Modification:
- IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR option is enabled for UDP sockets, which allows retrieval of ancillary information containing the original recipient.
- _recvFrom(...) function from transport-native-unix-common/src/main/c/netty_unix_socket.c is modified such that if IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR is set, recvmsg is used instead of recvfrom; enabling the retrieval of the original recipient.
- DatagramSocketAddress also contains a 'local' address, representing the recipient.
- EpollDatagramChannel is updated to return the retrieved recipient address instead of the address the channel is bound to.
Result:
Fixes#4950.
Motivation:
LocalChannel / LocalServerChannel did not respect read limits and just always read all of the messages.
Modifications:
- Correct respect MAX_MESSAGES_PER_READ settings
- Add unit tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7880.
Motivation:
On z/OS netty initializes this value with 64M, even the direct accessible memory is actually unbounded.
Modifications:
Skip usage of VM.maxDirectMemory() on z/OS.
Result:
More correct direct memory limit detection. Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7654.
Motivation:
Using a very huge delay when calling schedule(...) may cause an Selector error when calling select(...) later on. We should gaurd against such a big value.
Modifications:
- Add guard against a very huge value.
- Added tests.
Result:
Fixes [#7365]
Motivation:
A FastThreadLocal instance currently occupies 2 slots of InternalThreadLocalMap of every thread. Actually for a FastThreadLocalThread, it does not need to store cleaner flags of FastThreadLocal instances. Besides, using BitSet to store cleaner flags is also better for space usage.
Modification:
Use BitSet to optimize space usage of FastThreadLocal.
Result:
Avoid unnecessary slot occupancy. Cleaner flags are now stored into a BitSet.
Motivation:
It should be possible to write a ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf to a channel without errors. However, ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf does not override isWritable and ensureWritable, which can cause some handlers to mistakenly assume they can write to the ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf, resulting in ReadOnlyBufferException.
Modification:
Added isWritable and ensureWritable method overrides on ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf to indicate that it is never writable. Added tests for these methods.
Result:
Can successfully write ReadOnlyByteBufferBuf to a channel with an SslHandler (or any other handler which may attempt to write to the ByteBuf it receives).
Motivation:
A new version of os-maven-plugin has been released.
Modifications:
- Update os-maven-plugin from 1.5.0 to 1.6.0
Result:
- No visible changes
- Feels good
It is possible to create streams in the half-closed state where the
stream state doesn't reflect that the request headers have been sent by
the client or the server hasn't received the request headers. This
state isn't possible in the H2 spec as a half closed stream must have
either received a full request or have received the headers from a
pushed stream. In the current implementation, this can cause the stream
created as part of an h2c upgrade request to be in this invalid state
and result in the omission of RST frames as the client doesn't believe
it has sent the request to begin with.
Modification:
The `DefaultHttp2Connection.activate` method checks the state and
modifies the status of the request headers as appropriate.
Result:
Fixes#7847.
Motivation:
Currently, if a DNS server returns a non-preferred address type before the preferred one, then both will be returned as the result, and when only taking a single one, this usually ends up being the non-preferred type. However, the JDK requires lookups to only return the preferred type when possible to allow for backwards compatibility.
To allow a client to be able to resolve the appropriate address when running on a machine that does not support IPv6 but the DNS server returns IPv6 addresses before IPv4 addresses when querying.
Modification:
Filter the returned records to the expected type when both types are present.
Result:
Allows a client to run on a machine with IPv6 disabled even when a server returns both IPv4 and IPv6 results. Netty-based code can be a drop-in replacement for JDK-based code in such circumstances.
This PR filters results before returning them to respect JDK expectations.
Motivation:
When trying to cleanup WeakOrderQueue by the ObjectCleaner we end up in an endless loop which will cause the ObjectCleaner to be not able to cleanup any other resources anymore.This bug was introduced by 6eb9674bf5.
Modifications:
Correctly update link while cleanup
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7877
Motivation:
We need to ensure we only reset readInProgress if the outboundBuffer is not empty as otherwise we may miss to call fireChannelRead(...) later on when using the LocalChannel.
Modifications:
Also check if the outboundBuffer is not empty before setting readInProgress to false again
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7855
Motivation:
This allows netty to operate in 'transparent proxy' mode for UDP, intercepting connections
to other addresses by means of Linux firewalling rules, as per
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/tproxy.txt
Modification:
Add IP_TRANSPARENT option.
Result:
Allows setting and getting of the IP_TRANSPARENT option, which allows retrieval of the ultimate socket address originally requested.
