Motivation:
At the moment we don't support session caching on the client side at all when using the native SSL implementation. We should at least allow to enable it.
Modification:
Allow to enable session cache for client side but disable ti by default due a JDK bug atm.
Result:
Be able to cache sessions on the client side when using native SSL implementation .
Motivation:
Creating certificates from a byte[] while lazy parse it is general useful and is also needed by https://github.com/netty/netty-incubator-codec-quic/pull/141
Modifications:
Move classes, rename these and make them public
Result:
Be able to reuse code
Motivation:
Some of the features we want to support can only be supported by some of the SslContext implementations. We should allow to configure these in a consistent way the same way as we do it with Channel / ChannelOption
Modifications:
- Add SslContextOption and add builder methods that take these
- Add OpenSslContextOption and define two options there which are specific to openssl
Result:
More flexible configuration and implementation of SslContext
Motivation:
In WriteTimeoutHandler we did make the assumption that the executor which is used to schedule the timeout is the same that is backing the write promise. This may not be true which will cause concurrency issues
Modifications:
Ensure we are on the right thread when try to modify the doubly-linked-list and if not schedule it on the right thread.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11053
Motivation:
We need to ensure that we call queue.remove() before we cal writeAndFlush() as this operation may cause an event that also touches the queue and remove from it. If we miss to do so we may see NoSuchElementExceptions.
Modifications:
- Call queue.remove() before calling writeAndFlush(...)
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11046
This brings forward the build and release automation changes from 4.1 (#10879, #10883, #10884, #10886, #10888, #10889, #10893, #10900, #10933, #10945, #10966, #10968, #11002, and #11019) to 5.0.
Details are as follows:
* Use Github workflows for CI (#10879)
Motivation:
We should just use GitHub Actions for the CI
Modifications:
- Adjust docker / docker compose files
- Add different workflows and jobs to deploy and build the project
Result:
Don't depend on external CI services
* Fix non leak build condition
* Only use build and deploy workflows for 4.1 for now
* Add deploy job for cross compiled aarch64 (#10883)
Motivation:
We should also deploy snapshots for our cross compiled native jars.
Modifications:
- Add job and docker files for deploying cross compiled native jars
- Ensure we map the maven cache into our docker containers
Result:
Deploy aarch64 jars and re-use cache
* Use correct docker-compose file to deploy cross compiled artifacts
* Use correct docker-compose task to deploy for cross compiled artifacts
* Split pr and normal build (#10884)
Motivation:
We should better use seperate workflows for PR and normal builds
Modifications:
- Split workflows
- Better cache reuse
Result:
Cleanup
* Only deploy snapshots for one arch
Motivation:
We need to find a way to deploy SNAPSHOTS for different arch with the same timestamp. Otherwise it will cause problems.
See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10887
Modification:
Skip all other deploys then x86_64
Result:
Users are able to use SNAPSHOTS for x86_6
* Use maven cachen when running analyze job (#10888)
Motivation:
To prevent failures to problems while downloading dependencies we shoud cache these
Modifications:
Add maven cache
Result:
No more failures due problems while downloading dependencies
* Also include one PR job that uses boringssl (#10886)
Motivation:
When validating PRs we should also at least run one job that uses boringssl
Modifications:
- Add job that uses boringssl
- Cleanup docker compose files
- Fix buffer leak in test
Result:
Also run with boringssl when PRs are validated
* Use matrix for job configurations (#10889)
Motivation:
We can use the matrix feature to define our jobs. This reduces a lot of config
Modification:
Use job matrix
Result:
Easier to maintain
* Correctly deploy artifacts that are build on different archs (#10893)
Motivation:
We need to take special care when deploying snapshots as we need to generate the jars in multiple steps
Modifications:
- Use the nexus staging pluging to stage jars locally in multiple steps
- Add extra job that will merge these staged jars and deploy these
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10887
* Dont use cron for PRs
Motivation:
It doesnt make sense to use cron for PRs
Modifications:
Remove cron config
Result:
Cleanup
* We run all combinations when validate the PR, let's just use one type for normal push
Motivation:
Let us just only use one build config when building the 4.1 branch.
Modifications:
As we already do a full validation when doing the PR builds we can just only use one build config for pushes to the "main" branches
Result:
Faster build times
* Update action-docker-layer-caching (#10900)
Motivation:
We are three releases behind.
Modifications:
Update to latest version
Result:
Use up-to-date action-docker-layer-caching version
* Verify we can load native modules and add job that verifies on aarch64 as well (#10933)
Motivation:
As shown in the past we need to verify we actually can load the native as otherwise we may introduce regressions.
Modifications:
- Add new maven module which tests loading of native modules
- Add job that will also test loading on aarch64
Result:
Less likely to introduce regressions related to loading native code in the future
* Let script fail if one command fail (#10945)
Motivation:
We should use `set -e` to ensure we fail the script if one command fails.
Modifications:
Add set -e to script
Result:
Fail fast
* Use action to report unit test errors (#10966)
Motivation:
To make it easier to understand why the build fails lets use an action that will report which unit test failed
Modifications:
- Replace custom script with action-surefire-report
Result:
Easier to understand test failures
* Use custom script to check for build failures (#10968)
Motivation:
It turns out we can't use the action to check for build failures as it can't be used when a PR is done from a fork. Let's just use our simple script.
Modifications:
- Replace action with custom script
Result:
Builds for PRs that are done via forks work again.
* Publish test results after PR run (#11002)
Motivation:
To make it easier to understand why a build failed let us publish the rest results
Modifications:
Use a new workflow to be able to publish the test reports
Result:
Easier to understand why a PR did fail
* Fix test reports name
* Add workflow to cut releases (#11019)
Motivation:
Doing releases manually is error-prone, it would be better if we could do it via a workflow
Modification:
- Add workflow to cut releases
- Add related scripts
Result:
Be able to easily cut a release via a workflow
* Update build for master branch
Motivation:
The build changes were brought forward from 4.1, and contain many things specific to 4.1.
Modification:
Changed baseline Java version from 8 to 11, and changed branch references from "4.1" to "master".
Result:
Builds should now work for the master branch.

Motivation:
To make it possible to experiment with alternative buffer implementations, we need a way to abstract away the concrete buffers used throughout most of the Netty pipelines, while still having a common currency for doing IO in the end.
Modification:
- Introduce an ByteBufConvertible interface, that allow arbitrary objects to convert themselves into ByteBuf objects.
- Every place in the code, where we did an instanceof check for ByteBuf, we now do an instanceof check for ByteBufConvertible.
- ByteBuf itself implements ByteBufConvertible, and returns itself from the asByteBuf method.
Result:
It is now possible to use Netty with alternative buffer implementations, as long as they can be converted to ByteBuf.
This has been verified elsewhere, with an alternative buffer implementation.
Motivation:
The `!fastOpen` part of `active || !fastOpen` is always false.
Modification:
- Remove `!fastOpen` and keep only `active` as a `flushAtEnd` flag for
`startHandshakeProcessing`;
- Update comment;
Result:
Simplified `flushAtEnd` flag computation in `SslHandler#handlerAdded`.
Support TCP Fast Open for clients and make SslHandler take advantage
Motivation:
- TCP Fast Open allow us to send a small amount of data along side the initial SYN packet when establishing a TCP connection.
- The TLS Client Hello packet is small enough to fit in there, and is also idempotent (another requirement for using TCP Fast Open), so if we can save a round-trip when establishing TLS connections when using TFO.
Modification:
- Add support for client-side TCP Fast Open for Epoll, and also lowers the Linux kernel version requirements to 3.6.
- When adding the SslHandler to a pipeline, if TCP Fast Open is enabled for the channel (and the channel is not already active) then start the handshake early by writing it to the outbound buffer.
- An important detail to note here, is that the outbound buffer is not flushed at this point, like it would for normal handshakes. The flushing happens later as part of establishing the TCP connection.
Result:
- It is now possible for clients (on epoll) to open connections with TCP Fast Open.
- The SslHandler automatically detects when this is the case, and now send its Client Hello message as part of the initial data in the TCP Fast Open flow when available, saving a round-trip when establishing TLS connections.

Motivation:
The testGlobalWriteThrottle is flaky and failed our build multiple times now. Lets disable it for now until we had time to investigate
Modifications:
Disable flaky test
Result:
Less failures during build
Motivation:
At the moment we always set SSL_OP_NO_TICKET when building our context. The problem with this is that this also disables resumption for TLSv1.3 in BoringSSL as it only supports stateless resumption for TLSv1.3 which uses tickets.
We should better clear this option when TLSv1.3 is enabled to be able to resume sessions. This is also inline with the OpenJDK which enables this for TLSv1.3 by default as well.
Modifications:
Check for enabled protocols and if TLSv1.3 is set clear SSL_OP_NO_TICKET.
Result:
Be able to resume sessions for TLSv1.3 when using BoringSSL.
Motivation:
File.createTempFile(String, String)` will create a temporary file in the system temporary directory if the 'java.io.tmpdir'. The permissions on that file utilize the umask. In a majority of cases, this means that the file that java creates has the permissions: `-rw-r--r--`, thus, any other local user on that system can read the contents of that file.
This can be a security concern if any sensitive data is stored in this file.
This was reported by Jonathan Leitschuh <jonathan.leitschuh@gmail.com> as a security problem.
Modifications:
Use Files.createTempFile(...) which will use safe-defaults when running on java 7 and later. If running on java 6 there isnt much we can do, which is fair enough as java 6 shouldnt be considered "safe" anyway.
Result:
Create temporary files with sane permissions by default.
Motivation:
It was not 100% clear who is responsible calling close() on the InputStream.
Modifications:
Clarify javadocs.
Result:
Related to https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10974
Co-authored-by: Chris Vest <christianvest_hansen@apple.com>
Motivation:
TLS_FALSE_START slightly changes the "flow" during handshake which may cause suprises for the end-user. We should better disable it by default again and later add a way to enable it for the user.
Modification:
This reverts commit 514d349e1f.
Result:
Restore "old flow" during TLS handshakes.
Motivation:
We didnt correctly filter out TLSv1.3 ciphers when TLSv1.3 is not enabled.
Modifications:
- Filter out ciphers that are not supported due the selected TLS version
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10911
Co-authored-by: Bryce Anderson <banderson@twitter.com>
Motivation:
If the given port is already bound, the PcapWriteHandlerTest will sometimes fail.
Modification:
Use a dynamic port using `0`, which is more reliable
Result:
Less Flaky
Motivation:
We should override the get*ApplicationProtocol() methods in ReferenceCountedOpenSslEngine to make it easier for users to obtain the selected application protocol
Modifications:
Add missing overrides
Result:
Easier for the user to get the selected application protocol (if any)
Motivation:
We should expose some methods as protected to make it easier to write custom SslContext implementations.
This will be reused by the code for https://github.com/netty/netty-incubator-codec-quic/issues/97
Modifications:
- Add protected to some static methods which are useful for sub-classes
- Remove some unused methods
- Move *Wrapper classes to util package and make these public
Result:
Easier to write custom SslContext implementations
Motivation:
We need to ensure we always drain the error stack when a callback throws as otherwise we may pick up the error on a different SSL instance which uses the same thread.
Modifications:
- Correctly drain the error stack if native method throws
- Add a unit test which failed before the change
Result:
Always drain the error stack
Motivation:
When using the JDKs SSLEngineImpl with TLSv1.3 it sometimes returns HandshakeResult.FINISHED multiple times. This can lead to have SslHandshakeCompletionEvents to be fired multiple times.
Modifications:
- Keep track of if we notified before and if so not do so again if we use TLSv1.3
- Add unit test
Result:
Consistent usage of events
Motivation:
We can make use of internalNioBuffer(...) if we cant access the memoryAddress. This at least will reduce the object creations.
Modifications:
Use internalNioBuffer(...) and so reduce the GC
Result:
Less object creation if we can't access the memory address.
Motivation:
https in xmlns URIs does not work and will let the maven release plugin fail:
```

See also https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-24014.
Modifications:
Use http for xmlns
Result:
Be able to use maven release plugin
Motivation:
Sometimes it would be helpful to easily detect if an operation failed due the SSLEngine already be closed.
Modifications:
Add special exception that is used when the engine was closed
Result:
Easier to detect a failure caused by a closed exception
Motivation:
FingerprintTrustManagerFactory can only use SHA-1 that is considered
insecure.
Modifications:
- Updated FingerprintTrustManagerFactory to accept a stronger hash algorithm.
- Remove the constructors that still use SHA-1.
- Added a test for FingerprintTrustManagerFactory.
Result:
A user can now configure FingerprintTrustManagerFactory to use a
stronger hash algorithm.

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:
In the master branch we fail fire* operations on the ChannelHandlerContext once the handler was removed. This is by design as it is "unspecified" what the semantics could be after the handler was removed and may lead to very hard to debug problems. Because of this we need to select the right ChannelHandlerContext for firing the event.
Modifications:
Choose a valid ChannelHandlerContext based on the state of the context of the handler
Result:
No more test failures
Motivation:
junit deprecated Assert.assertThat(...)
Modifications:
Use MatcherAssert.assertThat(...) as replacement for deprecated method
Result:
Less deprecation warnings
Motivation:
We can filter out `null` rules while initializing the instance of `RuleBasedIpFilter` so we don't have to keep checking for `null` rules while iterating through `rules` array in `for loop` which is just a waste of CPU cycles.
Modification:
Added `null` rule check inside the constructor.
Result:
No more wasting CPU cycles on check the `null` rule each time in `for loop` and makes the overall operation more faster.
Motivation:
LGTM reports multiple issues. They need to be triaged,
and real ones should be fixed.
Modifications:
- Fixed multiple issues reported by LGTM, such as redundant conditions,
resource leaks, typos, possible integer overflows.
- Suppressed false-positives.
- Added a few testcases.
Result:
Fixed several possible issues, get rid of false alarms in the LGTM report.
Motivation:
Users may want to do special actions when onComplete(...) was called and depend on these once they receive the SniCompletionEvent
Modifications:
Switch order and so call onLookupComplete(...) before we fire the event
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10655
Motivation:
Java 16 will come around eventually anyway, and this makes it easier for people to experiment with Early Access builds.
Modification:
- Added Maven profiles for JDK 16 to relevant pom files.
- Removed the `--add-exports java.base/sun.security.x509=ALL-UNNAMED` argument when running tests; we've not needed it since the Java11-as-baseline PR landed.
Result:
Netty now builds on JDK 16 pre-releases (provided they've not broken compatibility in some way).
Raise the Netty 5 minimum required Java version to Java 11.
Motivation:
Java 11 has been out for some time, and Netty 5 is still some ways out.
There are also many good features in Java 11 that we wish to use, such as VarHandles, var-keyword, and the module system.
There is no reason for Netty 5 to not require Java 11, since Netty 4.x will still be supported for the time being.
Modification:
Remove everything in the pom files related to Java versions older than Java 11.
Remove the animal-sniffer plug-in and rely on the `--release` compiler flag instead.
Remove docker files related to Java versions older than Java 11.
Remove the copied SCTP APIs -- we should test this commit independently on Windows.
Remove the OpenJdkSelfSignedCertGenerator.java file and just always use Bouncy Castle for generating self-signed certificates for testing.
Make netty-testsuite tests pass by including Bouncy Castle as a test dependency, so we're able to generate our self-signed certificate.
Result:
Java 11 is now the minimum required Java version.
Motivation:
We should implement the Closeable method to properly close `OutputStream` and `PcapWriteHandler`. So whenever `handlerRemoved(ChannelHandlerContext)` is called or the user wants to stop the Pcap writes into `OutputStream`, we have a proper method to close it otherwise writing data to close `OutputStream` will result in `IOException`.
Modification:
Implemented `Closeable` in `PcapWriteHandler` which calls `PcapWriter#close` and closes `OutputStream` and stops Pcap writes.
Result:
Better handling of Pcap writes.
Motivation:
We wish to use Unsafe as little as possible, and Java 8 allows us
to take some short-cuts or play some tricks with generics,
for the purpose of working around having to declare all checked
exceptions. Ideally all checked exceptions would be declared, but
the code base is not ready for that yet.
Modification:
The call to UNSAFE.throwException has been removed, so when we need
that feature, we instead use the generic exception trick.
In may cases, Java 8 allows us to throw Throwable directly. This
happens in cases where no exception is declared to be thrown in a
scope.
Finally, some warnings have also been fixed, and some imports have
been reorganised and cleaned up while I was modifying the files
anyway.
Result:
We no longer use Unsafe for throwing any exceptions.
Motivation:
We need to take the Provider into account as well when trying to detect if TLSv1.3 is used by default / supported
Modifications:
- Change utility method to respect provider as well
- Change testcode
Result:
Less error-prone tests
Motivation:
Some JDKs dissallow the usage of keysizes < 2048, so we should not use such small keysizes in tests.
This showed up on fedora 32:
```
Caused by: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Algorithm constraints check failed on keysize limits. RSA 1024bit key used with certificate: CN=tlsclient. Usage was tls client
at sun.security.util.DisabledAlgorithmConstraints$KeySizeConstraint.permits(DisabledAlgorithmConstraints.java:817)
at sun.security.util.DisabledAlgorithmConstraints$Constraints.permits(DisabledAlgorithmConstraints.java:419)
at sun.security.util.DisabledAlgorithmConstraints.permits(DisabledAlgorithmConstraints.java:167)
at sun.security.provider.certpath.AlgorithmChecker.check(AlgorithmChecker.java:326)
at sun.security.provider.certpath.PKIXMasterCertPathValidator.validate(PKIXMasterCertPathValidator.java:125)
... 23 more
```
Modifications:
Replace hardcoded keys / certs with SelfSignedCertificate
Result:
No test-failures related to small key sizes anymore.
Motivation:
We should stop as soon as we were able to set the key material on the server side as otherwise we may select keymaterial that "belongs" to a less prefered cipher. Beside this it also is just useless work.
We also need to propagate the exception when it happens during key material selection on the client side so openssl will produce the right alert.
Modifications:
- Stop once we were able to select a key material on the server side
- Ensure we not call choose*Alias more often then needed
- Propagate exceptions during selection of the keymaterial on the client side.
Result:
Less overhead and more correct behaviour
Motivation:
We need to let openssl know that we failed to find the key material so it will produce an alert for the remote peer to consume. Beside this we also need to ensure we wrap(...) until we produced everything as otherwise the remote peer may see partial data when an alert is produced in multiple steps.
Modifications:
- Correctly throw if we could not find the keymaterial
- wrap until we produced everything
- Add test
Result:
Correctly handle the case when key material could not be found
Motivation:
Calling chooseServerAlias(...) may be expensive so we should ensure we not call it multiple times for the same auth methods.
Modifications:
Remove duplicated from authMethods before trying to call chooseServerAlias(...)
Result:
Less performance overhead during key material selection
Motivation:
Following Javadoc standard
Modification:
Change from `@param KeyManager` to `@param keyManager`
Result:
The `@param` matches the actual parameter variable name
Motivation:
Write TCP and UDP packets into Pcap `OutputStream` which helps a lot in debugging.
Modification:
Added TCP and UDP Pcap writer.
Result:
New handler can write packets into an `OutputStream`, e.g. a file that can be opened with Wireshark.
Fixes#10385.
Motivation:
This reverts commit 7bf1ffb2d4 as it turns out it introduced a big performance regression.
Modifications:
Revert 7bf1ffb2d4
Result:
Performance of TLS is back to normal
Motivation:
`IpSubnetFilter` uses Binary Search for IP Address search which is fast if we have large set of IP addresses to filter.
Modification:
Added `IpSubnetFilter` which takes `IpSubnetFilterRule` for filtering.
Result:
Faster IP address filter.
Motivation:
`RuleBasedIpFilter` had JavaDoc `{@link #channelRejected(ChannelHandlerContext, SocketAddress)}` instead of `{@link AbstractRemoteAddressFilter#channelRejected(ChannelHandlerContext, SocketAddress)}`.
Modification:
Added `AbstractRemoteAddressFilter` reference.
Result:
Fixed JavaDoc error and made documentation more clear.
Motivation:
Right now after a SslMasterKeyHandler is added to the pipeline,
it also needs to be enabled via a system property explicitly. In
some environments where the handler is conditionally added to
the pipeline this is redundant and a bit confusing.
Modifications:
This changeset keeps the default behavior, but allows child
implementations to tweak the way on how it detects that it
should actually handle the event when it is being raised.
Also, removed a private static that is not used in the wireshark
handler.
Result:
Child implementations can be more flexible in deciding when
and how the handler should perform its work (without changing
any of the defaults).
Motivation:
To reduce latency and RTTs we should use TLS False Start when jdkCompatibilityMode is not required and its supported
Modifications:
Use SSL_MODE_ENABLE_FALSE_START when jdkCompatibilityMode is false
Result:
Less RTTs and so lower latency when TLS False Start is supported
Motivation:
How we init our static fields in Conscrypt was kind of error-prone and may even lead to NPE later on when methods were invoked out of order.
Modifications:
- Move all the init code to a static block
- Remove static field which is not needed anymore
Result:
Cleanup and also fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10413
Motivation:
fd0d06e introduced the usage of MethodHandles and so also introduced some usages of invokeExact(...). Unfortunally when calling this method we missed to also cast the return value in the static init block of JdkAlpnSslUtils which lead to an exception to be thrown as the JVM did assume the return value is void which is not true.
Modifications:
Correctly cast the return value of invokeExact(...)
Result:
ALPN can be used in master with JDK again
