Motivation:
Currently, Netty only has BrotliDecoder which can decode Brotli encoded data. However, BrotliEncoder is missing which will encode normal data to Brotli encoded data.
Modification:
Added BrotliEncoder and CompressionOption
Result:
Fixes#6899.

Motivation:
RFC 8411 defines a new HTTP/2 pseudo header called `:protocol`:
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8441/
Netty currently raises an exception when validating an `Http2Headers`.
Modifications:
- Added `Http2Headers.PseudoHeaderNames.PROTOCOL` so that `:protocol`
pseudo header is not rejected.
Result:
- A user can implement WebSockets with HTTP/2.
Motivation:
SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator implements the promise API and allows for
multiple operations to share a common promise. It currently propagates
the last exception to occur, but this may mask the original exception
which lead to the last exception and make debugging more difficult.
Modifications:
- SimpleChannelPromiseAggregator propagates the first exception instead
of the last exception.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11161.
Motivation:
There is a bug in `StreamBufferingEncoder` such that when client receives GOWAY while there are pending streams due to MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAMS, we see the following error:

```
The bug should come from the way that `StreamBufferingEncoder.writeHeaders()` handles the condition `connection().goAwayReceived()`. The current behavior is to delegate to `super.writeHeaders()` and let the stream fail, but this will end up with `Http2Exception` with the message "Maximum active streams violated for this endpoint" which is horrible. See e5951d46fc/codec-http2/src/main/java/io/netty/handler/codec/http2/StreamBufferingEncoder.java (L152-L155)
Modification:
Abort new stream immediately if goaway received *and* MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAM reached in `StreamBufferingEncoder` rather than delegating to the `writeHeaders()` method of its super class.
Result:
In the situation when GOAWAY received as well as MAX_CONCURRENT_STREAM exceeded, the client will fail the buffered streams with `Http2Error.NO_ERROR` and message "GOAWAY received" instead of "Maximum active streams violated for this endpoint".

Motivation:
We also need to ensure that all the header validation is done when a single header with the endStream flag is received
Modifications:
- Adjust code to always enforce the validation
- Add more unit tests
Result:
Always correctly validate
Motivation:
CONNECT requests have no path defined as stated in the HTTP/2 spec, at the moment we will throw an exception if we try to convert such a request to HTTP/1.1
Modifications:
- Don't throw an exception if we try to convert a HTTP/2 CONNECT request that has no path
- Add unit test
Result:
Related to https://github.com/netty/netty-incubator-codec-http3/pull/112.
Motivation:
We need to ensure we are still be able to correctly map errors to streams in all cases. The problem was that we sometimes called closeStreamRemote(...) in a finally block and so closed the underyling stream before the actual exception was propagated. This was only true in some cases and not in all. Generally speaking we should only call closeStreamRemote(...) if there was no error as in a case of error we should generate a RST frame.
Modifications:
- Only call closeStreamRemote(...) if no exeption was thrown and so let the Http2ConnectionHandler handle the exception correctly
- Add unit tests
Result:
Correctly handle errors even when endStream is set to true
Motivation
A GOAWAY frame (or any other HTTP/2 frame) should not be sent before the
connection preface. Clients that immediately close the channel may
currently attempt to send a GOAWAY frame before the connection preface,
resulting in servers receiving a seemingly-corrupt connection preface.
Modifications
* Ensure that the preface has been sent before attempting to
automatically send a GOAWAY frame as part of channel shutdown logic
* Add unit test that only passes with new behavior
Result
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/11026
Co-authored-by: Bennett Lynch <Bennett-Lynch@users.noreply.github.com>
Motivation:
As stated by https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-8.1.2.6 we should report a stream error if the content-length does not match the sum of all data frames.
Modifications:
- Verify that the sum of data frames match if a content-length header was send.
- Handle multiple content-length headers and also handle negative values
- Add io.netty.http2.validateContentLength system property which allows to disable the more strict validation
- Add unit tests
Result:
Correctly handle the case when the content-length header was included but not match what is send and also when content-length header is invalid
Motivation:
When TLSv1.3 is used (or TLS_FALSE_START) together with mTLS the handshake is considered successful before the server actually did verify the key material that was provided by the client. If the verification fails we currently will just close the stream without any extra information which makes it very hard to debug on the client side.
Modifications:
- Propagate SSLExceptions to the active streams
- Add unit test
Result:
Better visibility into why a stream was closed
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/10765 added support for push promise and priority frames when using the Http2FrameCodec. Unfortunally it didnt correctly guard against the possibility to receive a priority frame for an non-existing stream, which resulted in a NPE
Modifications:
- Ignore priority frame for non existing stream
- Correctly implement equals / hashcode for DefaultHttp2PriorityFrame
- Add unit tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10941
Motivation:
We should use GracefulShutdown when we try to create a stream and fail it because the stream space is exhausted as we may still want to process the active streams.
Modifications:
- Use graceful shutdown
- Add unit test
Result:
More graceful handling of stream creation failure due stream space exhaustation
Motivation:
Right now, we don't have to handle Push Promise Read in `Http2FrameCodec`. Push Promise is one of the key features of HTTP/2 and we should support it in our `Http2FrameCodec`.
Modification:
Added `Http2PushPromiseFrame` and `Http2PushPromiseFrame` to handle Push Promise and Promise Frame.
Result:
Fixes#10748
Motivation:
Http2ConnectionHandler tries to addListener to the future without checking if it's void. If it is void, this will fail and generate an exception.
Modifications:
Unvoid the promise in writeData()
Result:
Fixes#10816, Writing with a voidPromise no longer generates exceptions.
Motivation:
We should have a method to add `HttpScheme` if `HttpRequest` does not contain `x-http2-scheme` then we should use add it if `HttpToHttp2ConnectionHandler` is build using specified `HttpScheme`.
Modification:
Added `HttpScheme` in `HttpToHttp2ConnectionHandlerBuilder`.
Result:
Automatically add `HttpScheme` if missing in `HttpRequest`.
Motivation:
When parsing HEADERS, connection errors can occur (e.g., too large of
headers, such that we don't want to HPACK decode them). These trigger a
GOAWAY with a last-stream-id telling the client which streams haven't
been processed.
Unfortunately that last-stream-id didn't include the stream for the
HEADERS that triggered the error. Since clients are free to silently
retry streams not included in last-stream-id, the client is free to
retransmit the request on a new connection, which will fail the
connection with the wrong last-stream-id, and the client is still free
to retransmit the request.
Modifications:
Have fatal connection errors (those that hard-cut the connection)
include all streams in last-stream-id, which guarantees the HEADERS'
stream is included and thus should not be silently retried by the HTTP/2
client.
This modification is heavy-handed, as it will cause racing streams to
also fail, but alternatives that provide precise last-stream-id tracking
are much more invasive. Hard-cutting the connection is already
heavy-handed and so is rare.
Result:
Fixes#10670
Motivation:
We received a [bug report](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1143320) from the Chrome team at Google, their canary builds are failing [HTTP/2 GREASE](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bishop-httpbis-grease-00) testing to netflix.com.
The reason it's failing is that Netty can't handle unknown frames without an active stream created. Let me know if you'd like more info, such as stack traces or repro steps.
Modification:
The change is minor and simply ignores unknown frames on the connection stream, similarly to `onWindowUpdateRead`.
Result:
I figured I would just submit a PR rather than filing an issue, but let me know if you want me to do that for tracking purposes.
Motivation:
`HttpConversionUtil#toHttpResponse` translates `Http2Headers` to `HttpResponse`. It uses `#addHttp2ToHttpHeaders(..., boolean isRequest)` to do so. However, `isRequest` field is set to `true` instead of `false`. It should be set to `false` because we're doing conversion of Response not Request.
Modification:
Changed `true` to `false`.
Result:
Correctly translates `Http2Headers` to `HttpResponse`.
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 should include TLSv1.3 ciphers as well as recommented ciphers these days for HTTP/2. That is especially true as Java supports TLSv1.3 these days out of the box
Modifications:
- Add TLSv1.3 ciphers that are recommended by mozilla as was for HTTP/2
- Add unit test
Result:
Include TLSv1.3 ciphers as well
Motivation:
Setting a dependency on the connection is normal and permitted; streams
actually default to depending on the connection. Using a PRIORITY frame
with a dependency on the connection could reset a previous PRIORITY,
change the relative weight, or make all streams dependent on one stream.
The previous code was disallowing these usages as it considered
depending on the connection to be a validation failure.
Modifications:
Loosen validation check to also allow depending on the connection. Fix
error message when the validation check fails.
Result:
Setting a dependency on connection would be permitted. Fixes#10416
Motivation:
If a request to open a new h2 stream was made from outside of the
EventLoop it will be scheduled for future execution on the EventLoop.
However, during the time before the `open0` task will be executed the
parent channel may already be closed. As the result,
`Http2MultiplexHandler#newOutboundStream()` will throw an
`IllegalStateException` with the message that is hard to
interpret correctly for this use-case: "Http2FrameCodec not found. Has
the handler been added to a pipeline?".
Modifications:
- Check that the parent h2 `Channel` is still active before creating a
new stream when `open0` task is picked up by EventLoop;
Result:
Users see a correct `ClosedChannelException` in case the parent h2
`Channel` was closed concurrently with a request for a new stream.
Motivation:
`Http2StreamChannelBootstrap#open0` invokes
`Http2MultiplexHandler#newOutboundStream()` which may throw an
`IllegalStateException`. In this case, it will never complete
the passed promise.
Modifications:
- `try-catch` all invocations of `newOutboundStream()` and fail
promise in case of any exception;
Result:
New H2 stream promise always completes.
Motivation:
The result of `header.size()` is already cached in `headerSize`. There is no need to call it again actually.
Modification:
Replace the second `header.size()` with `headerSize` directly.
Result:
Improve performance slightly.
Motivation:
`HpackDynamicTable` needs some test cases to ensure bug-free.
Modification:
Add unit test for `HpackDynamicTable`.
Result:
Improve test coverage slightly.
Motivation:
Http2StreamChannelId is Serializable. A test case is needed to ensure that it works.
Modification:
Add a test case about serialization.
Result:
Improve test coverage slightly.
Motivation:
Under certain read patters the AbstractHttp2StreamChannel can fail to
flush, resulting in flow window starvation.
Modifications:
- Ensure we flush if we exit the `doBeginRead()` method.
- Account for the Http2FrameCodec always synchronously finishing writes
of window update frames.
Result:
Fixes#10072
Motivation:
Even if it was stored in the string constant pool, I thought it was safe to compare it through the Equals() method.
Modification:
So, I changed "==" comparison to equals() comparison
Result:
It has become safer to compare String values with different references and with the same values.
Motivation:
We need to carefully manage flushes to ensure we not discard these by mistake due wrongly implemented consolidation of flushes.
Modifications:
- Ensure we reset flag before we actually call flush0(...)
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10015
Motivation:
Users of the DefaultHttp2ConnectionDecodcer are notified of inbound GoAwayFrames
after the connection has already closed any ignored streams, potentially
losing the signal that some streams may have been ignored by the peer and
are thus retryable.
Modifications:
Reorder the notifications of the frame and connection listeners to
propagate the frame first, giving the frame listeners the opportunity to
clean up ignored streams in their own way.
Result:
Fixes#9986
# Motivation:
`DefaultByteBufHolder.equals()` considers another object equal if it's an instance of `ByteBufferHolder` and if the contents of two objects are equal. However, the behavior of `equals` method is not a part of the `ByteBufHolder` contract so `DefaultByteBufHolder`'s version may be causing violation of the symmetric property if other classes have different logic.
There are already a few classes that are affected by this: `DefaultHttp2GoAwayFrame`, `DefaultHttp2UnknownFrame`, and `SctpMessage` are all overriding `equals` method breaking the symmetric property.
Another effect of this behavior is that all instances with empty data are considered equal. That may not be desireable in the situations when instances are created for predefined constants, e.g. `FullBulkStringRedisMessage.NULL_INSTANCE` and `FullBulkStringRedisMessage.EMPTY_INSTANCE` in `codec-redis`.
# Modification:
Make `DefaultByteBufHolder.equals()` implementation only work for the objects of the same class.
# Result:
- The symmetric property of the `equals` method is restored for the classes in question.
- Instances of different classes are not considered equal even if the content of the data they hold are the same.
Motivation:
The current implementation delegates to writeHeaders(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, int streamId, Http2Headers headers, int streamDependency, short weight, boolean exclusive, int padding, boolean endStream, ChannelPromise promise) that will send an header frame with the priority flag set and the default priority values even if the user didnt want too.
Modifications:
- Change DefaultHttp2ConnectionEncoder to call the correct Http2FrameWriter method depending on if the user wants to use priorities or not
- Adjust tests
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9842
Motivation:
We use the onStreamClosed(...) callback to return unconsumed bytes back to the window of the connection when needed. When this happens we will write a window update frame but not automatically call ctx.flush(). As the user has no insight into this it could in the worst case result in a "deadlock" as the frame is never written out ot the socket.
Modifications:
- If onStreamClosed(...) produces a window update frame call ctx.flush()
- Add unit test
Result:
No stales possible due unflushed window update frames produced by onStreamClosed(...) when not all bytes were consumed before the stream was closed
Motivation:
At the moment we send a window update frame for the connection + stream when a stream is closed and there are unconsumed bytes left. While we need to do this for the connection it makes no sense to write a window update frame for the stream itself as it is already closed
Modifications:
- Don't write the window update frame for the stream when the stream is closed
- Add unit test
Result:
Don't write the window frame for closed streams
Motivation:
Http2ConnectionHandler tries to guard against sending multiple RST frames for the same stream. Unfortunally the code is not 100 % correct as it only updates the state after it calls write. This may lead to the situation of have an extra RST frame slip through if the second write for the RST frame is done from a listener that is attached to the promise.
Modifications:
- Update state before calling write
- Add unit test
Result:
Only ever send one RST frame per stream
Motivation:
There is an intrinsic race between a local session resetting a stream
and the peer no longer sending any frames. This can result in the
session receiving frames for a stream that the local peer no longer
tracks. This results in a StreamException being thrown which triggers a
RST_STREAM frame, which is a good thing, but also logging at level WARN,
which is noisy for an expected and benign condition.
Modification:
Change the log level to DEBUG when logging stream errors with code
STREAM_CLOSED. All others are more interesting and will continue to be
logged at level WARN.
Additionally, it was found that DATA frames for streams that could not
have existed only resulted in a StreamException when the spec is clear
that such a situation should be fatal to the connection, resulting in a
GOAWAY(PROTOCOL_ERROR).
Fixes#8025.
Motivation:
To avoid regression regarding connection-specific headers[1], we should add a test.
[1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-8.1.2.2
Modification:
Add test that checks the following headers are removed.
- Connection
- Host
- Keep-Alive
- Proxy-Connection
- Transfer-Encoding
- Upgrade
Result:
There's no functional change.
Motivation:
Padding was removed from CONTINUATION frame in http2-spec, as showed in [PR](https://github.com/http2/http2-spec/pull/510). We should follow it.
Modifications:
- Remove padding when writing CONTINUATION frame in DefaultHttp2FrameWriter
- Add a unit test for writing large header with padding
Result:
More spec-compliant
Motivation:
Netty HTTP/2 implementation is not 100% compliant to the spec. This
commit improves the compliance regarding headers validation,
in particular pseudo-headers and connection ones.
According to the spec:
All HTTP/2 requests MUST include exactly one valid value for the
":method", ":scheme", and ":path" pseudo-header fields, unless it is
a CONNECT request (Section 8.3). An HTTP request that omits
mandatory pseudo-header fields is malformed (Section 8.1.2.6).
Modifications:
- Introduce Http2HeadersValidator class capable of validating HTTP/2
headers
- Invoke validation from DefaultHttp2ConnectionDecoder#onHeadersRead
- Modify tests to use valid headers when required
- Modify HttpConversionUtil#toHttp2Headers to not add :scheme and
:path header on CONNECT method in order to conform to the spec
Result:
- Initial requests without :method, :path, :scheme will fail
- Initial requests with multiple values for :method, :path, :scheme
will fail
- Initial requests with an empty :path fail
- Requests with connection-specific header field will fail
- Requests with TE header different than "trailers" will fail
-
- Fixes 8.1.2.2 tests from h2spec #5761
- Fixes 8.1.2.3 tests from h2spec #5761
Motivation:
Constant time comparison functions are used to compare HTTP/2 header
values, even if they are not sensitive.
Modification:
After checking for sensitivity, use fast comparison.
Result: Faster HPACK table reads/writes
Motivation:
In https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8692, `Http2FrameCodec` was
updated to keep track of all "being initialized" streams, allocating
memory before initialization begins, and releasing memory after
initialization completes successfully.
In some instances where stream initialization fails (e.g. because this
connection has received a GOAWAY frame), this memory is never released.
Modifications:
This change updates the `Http2FrameCodec` to use a separate promise
for monitoring the success of sending HTTP2 headers. When sending of
headers fails, we now make sure to release memory allocated for stream
initialization.
Result:
After this change, failures in writing HTTP2 Headers (e.g. because this
connection has received a GOAWAY frame) will no longer leak memory.
