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
Motivation:
The build fails on OSX, due to it trying to pull in an epoll specific OSX dependency. See #4409.
Modifications:
* move netty-transport-native-epoll to linux profile
* exclude Http2FrameWriterBenchmark from compiler
* include Http2FrameWriterBenchmark back only in linux profile (please check)
Result:
Build succeeds on OSX.
Motiviation:
Checking reference count on every access on a ByteBuf can have some big performance overhead depending on how the access pattern is. If the user is sure that there are no reference count errors on his side it should be possible to disable the check and so gain the max performance.
Modification:
- Add io.netty.buffer.bytebuf.checkAccessible system property which allows to disable the checks. Enabled by default.
- Add microbenchmark
Result:
Increased performance for operations on the ByteBuf.
Motivation:
The latest netty-tcnative fixes a bug in determining the version of the runtime openssl lib. It also publishes an artificact with the classifier linux-<arch>-fedora for fedora-based systems.
Modifications:
Modified the build files to use the "-fedora" classifier when appropriate for tcnative. Care is taken, however, to not change the classifier for the native epoll transport.
Result:
Netty is updated the the new shiny netty-tcnative.
