Motivation:
Incorrect behavior for StompFrame.copy() method.
Modification:
Added copying of frame headers
Result:
When you call the StompFrame.copy() method, the headers are also copied.
Fixes [#7561].
Motivation:
When decoding stomp frames a lot of unnecessary character arrays are created when parsing headers.
For every header, an array is created to read the line into and then more when splitting the line at the colon.
Modifications:
Parse key and value of a header while reading the line instead of afterwards.
Reuse a single AppendableCharSequence.
Reduce initial size of AppendableCharSequence when reading the command as it is expected to be short.
Result:
Allocations when parsing stomp frames have dropped significantly.
Automatic-Module-Name entry provides a stable JDK9 module name, when Netty is used in a modular JDK9 applications. More info: http://blog.joda.org/2017/05/java-se-9-jpms-automatic-modules.html
When Netty migrates to JDK9 in the future, the entry can be replaced by actual module-info descriptor.
Modification:
The POM-s are configured to put the correct module names to the manifest.
Result:
Fixes#7218.
Motivation:
By STOMP 1.2 specification - header name or value include any octet except CR or LF or ":".
Modification:
Add constructor argument that allows to enable / disable validation.
Result:
Fixes [#7083]
Motivation:
The `AsciiString#toString` method calculate string value and cache it into field. If an `AsciiString` created from the `String` value, we can avoid rebuilding strings if we cache them immediately when creating `AsciiString`. It would be useful for constants strings, which already stored in the JVMs string table, or in cases where an unavoidable `#toString `method call is assumed.
Modifications:
- Add new static method `AsciiString#cache(String)` which save string value into cache field.
- Apply a "benign" data race in the `#hashCode` and `#toString` methods.
Result:
Less memory usage in some `AsciiString` use cases.
Motivation:
1. `ByteBuf` contains methods to writing `CharSequence` which optimized for UTF-8 and ASCII encodings. We can also apply optimization for ISO-8859-1.
2. In many places appropriate methods are not used.
Modifications:
1. Apply optimization for ISO-8859-1 encoding in the `ByteBuf#setCharSequence` realizations.
2. Apply appropriate methods for writing `CharSequences` into buffers.
Result:
Reduce overhead from string-to-bytes conversion.
Motivation:
While working on #6087 some buffer leaks showed up.
Modifications:
Correctly release buffers.
Result:
No more buffer leaks in memcache and stomp codec tests.
Related: #4333#4421#5128
Motivation:
slice(), duplicate() and readSlice() currently create a non-recyclable
derived buffer instance. Under heavy load, an application that creates a
lot of derived buffers can put the garbage collector under pressure.
Modifications:
- Add the following methods which creates a non-recyclable derived buffer
- retainedSlice()
- retainedDuplicate()
- readRetainedSlice()
- Add the new recyclable derived buffer implementations, which has its
own reference count value
- Add ByteBufHolder.retainedDuplicate()
- Add ByteBufHolder.replace(ByteBuf) so that..
- a user can replace the content of the holder in a consistent way
- copy/duplicate/retainedDuplicate() can delegate the holder
construction to replace(ByteBuf)
- Use retainedDuplicate() and retainedSlice() wherever possible
- Miscellaneous:
- Rename DuplicateByteBufTest to DuplicatedByteBufTest (missing 'D')
- Make ReplayingDecoderByteBuf.reject() return an exception instead of
throwing it so that its callers don't need to add dummy return
statement
Result:
Derived buffers are now recycled when created via retainedSlice() and
retainedDuplicate() and derived from a pooled buffer
Motivation:
DefaultStompFrame.toString() implementations returned a String that contained DefaultFullStompFrame.
Modifications:
Replace DefaultFullStompFrame with DefaultStompFrame.
Result:
Less confusing and more correct return value of toString()
Motivation:
DefaultStompFrame.retain(increment) missed to pass on the increment parameter.
Modifications:
Correctly pass on increment paramter.
Result:
Correctly handle the retain when increment value is given.
Motivation:
The HTTP/2 RFC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-8.1.2) indicates that header names consist of ASCII characters. We currently use ByteString to represent HTTP/2 header names. The HTTP/2 RFC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-10.3) also eludes to header values inheriting the same validity characteristics as HTTP/1.x. Using AsciiString for the value type of HTTP/2 headers would allow for re-use of predefined HTTP/1.x values, and make comparisons more intuitive. The Headers<T> interface could also be expanded to allow for easier use of header types which do not have the same Key and Value type.
Motivation:
- Change Headers<T> to Headers<K, V>
- Change Http2Headers<ByteString> to Http2Headers<CharSequence, CharSequence>
- Remove ByteString. Having AsciiString extend ByteString complicates equality comparisons when the hash code algorithm is no longer shared.
Result:
Http2Header types are more representative of the HTTP/2 RFC, and relationship between HTTP/2 header name/values more directly relates to HTTP/1.x header names/values.
Motivation:
The STOMP decoder used to fail when parsing a frame with no content-length
and a body split across multiple packets.
Modifications:
Support contentLength of -1 (indicating indeterminate length) and added a
check to getContentLength. Moved the NUL byte searching from the
readHeaders() method out to the main decoder loop.
Result:
A STOMP frame can be properly parsed even if it's missing the
content-length header and the NUL byte is in a later packet.
Motivation:
The HashingStrategy for DefaultStompHeaders was using the java .equals() method which would fail to compare String, AsciiString, and other CharSequence objects as equal.
Modification:
- Use AsciiString.CASE_SENSITIVE_HASHER for DefaultStompHeaders
Result:
DefaultStompHeaders work with all CharSequence objects.
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/4247
Motivation:
The HttpObjectAggregator always responds with a 100-continue response. It should check the Content-Length header to see if the content length is OK, and if not responds with a 417.
Modifications:
- HttpObjectAggregator checks the Content-Length header in the case of a 100-continue.
Result:
HttpObjectAggregator responds with 417 if content is known to be too big.
Motivation:
A degradation in performance has been observed from the 4.0 branch as documented in https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/3962.
Modifications:
- Simplify Headers class hierarchy.
- Restore the DefaultHeaders to be based upon DefaultHttpHeaders from 4.0.
- Make various other modifications that are causing hot spots.
Result:
Performance is now on par with 4.0.
