Motivation:
Netty homepage(netty.io) serves both "http" and "https".
It's recommended to use https than http.
Modification:
I changed from "http://netty.io" to "https://netty.io"
Result:
No effects.
Motivation:
There are is some unnecessary code (like toString() calls) which can be cleaned up.
Modifications:
- Remove not needed toString() calls
- Simplify subString(...) calls
- Remove some explicit casts when not needed.
Result:
Cleaner code
Motivation:
ByteToMessageDecoder only looks at the last channelRead() in the batch
of channelRead()-s when determining whether or not it should call
ChannelHandlerContext#read() to consume more data when !isAutoRead. This
will lead to read() calls issued unnecessaily and unprompted if the very
last channelRead() didn't result in at least one decoded message, even
if there have been messages decoded from other channelRead()-s in the
current batch.
Modifications:
Track decode outcomes for the entire batch of channelRead() calls and
only issue a read in BTMD if the entire batch of channelRead() calls
yielded no complete messages.
Result:
ByteToMessageDecoder will no longer overread when the very last read
yielded no message, but the batch of reads did.
Motivation:
Lz4FrameEncoder and Lz4FrameDecoder in their default configuration use
an extremely inefficient way to checksum direct byte buffers. In
particular, for every byte checksummed, a single-element byte array is
being allocated and a JNI cal is made, which in some internal testing
makes a 25x difference in total throughput and allocates *a lot* of
garbage.
Modifications:
Lz4XXHash32, an implementation of ByteBufChecksum specifically for use
by Lz4FrameEncoder and Lz4FrameDecoder, is introduced. It utilises
xxHash32 block API which provides a hash() method that accepts a
ByteBuffer as an argument. Lz4FrameEncoder and Lz4FrameDecoder are
modified to use this implementation by default.
Result:
Lz4FrameEncoder and Lz4FrameDecoder perform well again when operating
on direct byte buffers with default checksum configuration; a public
implementation is provided for those who need to override the seed.
Motivation:
ReflectiveByteBufChecksum#update(buf, off, len) ignores provided offset
and length arguments when operating on direct buffers, leading to wrong
byte sequences being checksummed and ultimately incorrect checksum
values (unless checksumming the entire buffer).
Modifications:
Use the provided offset and length arguments to get the correct nio
buffer to checksum; add test coverage exercising the four meaningfully
different offset and length combinations.
Result:
Offset and length are respected and a correct checksum gets calculated;
simple unit test should prevent regressions in the future.
Motivation:
It is valid to use null as sender so we should support it when DatagramPacketEncoder checks if it supports the message.
Modifications:
- Add null check
- Add unit test
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/9199.
Motivation
Pipeline handlers are free to "take control" of input buffers if they have singular refcount - in particular to mutate their raw data if non-readonly via discarding of read bytes, etc.
However there are various places (primarily unit tests) where a wrapped byte-array buffer is passed in and the wrapped array is assumed not to change (used after the wrapped buffer is passed to EmbeddedChannel.writeInbound()). This invalid assumption could result in unexpected errors, such as those exposed by #8931.
Modifications
Anywhere that the data passed to writeInbound() might be used again, ensure that either:
- A copy is used rather than wrapping a shared byte array, or
- The buffer is otherwise protected from modification by making it read-only
For the tests, copying is preferred since it still allows the "mutating" optimizations to be exercised.
Results
Avoid possible errors when pipeline assumes it has full control of input buffer.
Motivation:
DefaultHeaders entries maintains two linked lists. 1 for overall insertion order
and 1 for "in bucket" order. DefaultHeaders#valueIterator removal (introduced in 1d9090aab2) only reliably
removes the entry from the overall insertion order, but may not remove from the
bucket unless the element is the first entry.
Modifications:
- DefaultHeaders$ValueIterator should track 2 elements behind the next entry so
that the single linked "in bucket" list can be patched up when removing the
previous entry.
Result:
More correct DefaultHeaders#valueIterator removal.
Motivation:
While iterating values it is often desirable to be able to remove individual
entries. The existing mechanism to do this involves removal of all entries and
conditional re-insertion which is heavy weight in order to remove a single
value.
Modifications:
- DefaultHeaders$ValueIterator supports removal
Result:
It is possible to remove entries while iterating the values in DefaultHeaders.
Motivation:
In 42742e233f we already added default methods to Channel*Handler and deprecated the Adapter classes to simplify the class hierarchy. With this change we go even further and merge everything into just ChannelHandler. This simplifies things even more in terms of class-hierarchy.
Modifications:
- Merge ChannelInboundHandler | ChannelOutboundHandler into ChannelHandler
- Adjust code to just use ChannelHandler
- Deprecate old interfaces.
Result:
Cleaner and simpler code in terms of class-hierarchy.
Motivation:
As we now us java8 as minimum java version we can deprecate ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter / ChannelOutboundHandlerAdapter and just move the default implementations into the interfaces. This makes things a bit more flexible for the end-user and also simplifies the class-hierarchy.
Modifications:
- Mark ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter and ChannelOutboundHandlerAdapter as deprecated
- Add default implementations to ChannelInboundHandler / ChannelOutboundHandler
- Refactor our code to not use ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter / ChannelOutboundHandlerAdapter anymore
Result:
Cleanup class-hierarchy and make things a bit more flexible.
Motivation:
Just was looking through code and found 1 interesting place DateFormatter.tryParseMonth that was not very effective, so I decided to optimize it a bit.
Modification:
Changed DateFormatter.tryParseMonth method. Instead of invocation regionMatch() for every month - compare chars one by one.
Result:
DateFormatter.parseHttpDate method performance improved from ~3% to ~15%.

Motivation:
We can use lambdas now as we use Java8.
Modification:
use lambda function for all package, #8751 only migrate transport package.
Result:
Code cleanup.
Motivation:
We need to update to a new checkstyle plugin to allow the usage of lambdas.
Modifications:
- Update to new plugin version.
- Fix checkstyle problems.
Result:
Be able to use checkstyle plugin which supports new Java syntax.
* Decouble EventLoop details from the IO handling for each transport to allow easy re-use of code and customization
Motiviation:
As today extending EventLoop implementations to add custom logic / metrics / instrumentations is only possible in a very limited way if at all. This is due the fact that most implementations are final or even package-private. That said even if these would be public there are the ability to do something useful with these is very limited as the IO processing and task processing are very tightly coupled. All of the mentioned things are a big pain point in netty 4.x and need improvement.
Modifications:
This changeset decoubled the IO processing logic from the task processing logic for the main transport (NIO, Epoll, KQueue) by introducing the concept of an IoHandler. The IoHandler itself is responsible to wait for IO readiness and process these IO events. The execution of the IoHandler itself is done by the SingleThreadEventLoop as part of its EventLoop processing. This allows to use the same EventLoopGroup (MultiThreadEventLoupGroup) for all the mentioned transports by just specify a different IoHandlerFactory during construction.
Beside this core API change this changeset also allows to easily extend SingleThreadEventExecutor / SingleThreadEventLoop to add custom logic to it which then can be reused by all the transports. The ideas are very similar to what is provided by ScheduledThreadPoolExecutor (that is part of the JDK). This allows for example things like:
* Adding instrumentation / metrics:
* how many Channels are registered on an SingleThreadEventLoop
* how many Channels were handled during the IO processing in an EventLoop run
* how many task were handled during the last EventLoop / EventExecutor run
* how many outstanding tasks we have
...
...
* Implementing custom strategies for choosing the next EventExecutor / EventLoop to use based on these metrics.
* Use different Promise / Future / ScheduledFuture implementations
* decorate Runnable / Callables when submitted to the EventExecutor / EventLoop
As a lot of functionalities are folded into the MultiThreadEventLoopGroup and SingleThreadEventLoopGroup this changeset also removes:
* AbstractEventLoop
* AbstractEventLoopGroup
* EventExecutorChooser
* EventExecutorChooserFactory
* DefaultEventLoopGroup
* DefaultEventExecutor
* DefaultEventExecutorGroup
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8514 .
Motivation:
Custom Netty ThreadLocalRandom and ThreadLocalRandomProvider classes are no longer needed and can be removed.
Modification:
Remove own ThreadLocalRandom
Result:
Less code to maintain
Motivation:
We can use the diamond operator these days.
Modification:
Use diamond operator whenever possible.
Result:
More modern code and less boiler-plate.
Motivation:
While we are not yet quite sure if we want to require Java11 as minimum we are at least sure we want to use java8 as minimum.
Modifications:
Change minimum version to java8 and update some tests which failed compilation after this change.
Result:
Use Java8 as minimum and be able to use Java8 features.
Motivation:
ByteBuf supports “marker indexes”. The intended use case for these is if a speculative operation (e.g. decode) is in process the user can “mark” and interface and refer to it later if the operation isn’t successful (e.g. not enough data). However this is rarely used in practice,
requires extra memory to maintain, and introduces complexity in the state management for derived/pooled buffer initialization, resizing, and other operations which may modify reader/writer indexes.
Modifications:
Remove support for marking and adjust testcases / code.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8535.
Motivation:
If the encoder needs to flush more than one outbound message it will
create a new ChannelPromise for all but the last write which will
swallow failures.
Modification:
Use a PromiseCombiner in the case of multiple messages and the parent
promise isn't the `VoidPromise`.
Result:
Intermediate failures are propagated to the original ChannelPromise.
* Optimize AbstractByteBuf.getCharSequence() in US_ASCII case
Motivation:
Inspired by https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/8388, I noticed this
simple optimization to avoid char[] allocation (also suggested in a TODO
here).
Modifications:
Return an AsciiString from AbstractByteBuf.getCharSequence() if
requested charset is US_ASCII or ISO_8859_1 (latter thanks to
@Scottmitch's suggestion). Also tweak unit tests not to require Strings
and include a new benchmark to demonstrate the speedup.
Result:
Speed-up of AbstractByteBuf.getCharSequence() in ascii and iso 8859/1
cases
Motivation:
We need to ensure the Cumulator always releases the input buffer if it can not take over the ownership of it as otherwise it may leak.
Modifications:
- Correctly ensure the buffer is always released.
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Ensure buffer is always released.
Motivation:
We need to reset the offset to 0 when we fail lazy because of a too long frame.
Modifications:
- Reset offset
- Add testcase
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8256.
Motivation:
The implementation of CharSequenceValueConverter.convertToByte did not correctly handle AsciiString if the length != 1.
Modifications:
- Only use fast-path for AsciiString with length of 1.
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/7990
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.
Motivation:
When the JsonObjectDecoder determines that the incoming buffer had some data discarded, it resets the internal index to readerIndex and attempts to adjust the state which does not correctly work for streams of JSON objects.
Modifications:
Reset the internal index to the value considering the previous reads.
Result:
JsonObjectDecoder correctly handles streams of both JSON objects and arrays with no state adjustments or repeatable reads.
Motivation:
6e5fd9311f fixed a bug in EmptyHeaders which was never noticed before because we had no tests.
Modifications:
Add tests for EmptyHeaders.
Result:
EmptyHeaders is tested now.
Motivation:
The Snappy decoder was failing on valid inputs containing literals
with 2-byte lengths > 0x8000 or copies with 2-byte offsets >= 0x8000.
The decoder was also enforcing an artificially low offset limit of
0x7FFF, something the Snappy format description advises against,
and which prevents decoding valid inputs generated by other encoders.
Modifications:
Interpret 2-byte literal lengths and 2-byte copy offsets as unsigned
shorts, in accordance with the format description and reference
implementation.
Allow any positive offset value. Throw an appropriate exception
for negative values (which can theoretically occur due to arithmetic
overflow on 4-byte offsets, but are unlikely to occur in the wild).
Result:
The Snappy decoder can handle valid inputs that previously caused
it to throw exceptions.
Motivation:
If you pass the output of CharSequenceValueConvert.convertToTimeMillis to convertTimeMillis it will throw a ParseException.
Modifications:
- Correctly implement CharSequenceValueConverter.convertTimeMillis
- Add unit-tests for CharSequenceValueConverter
Result:
Correctly convert timemillis.
Motivation:
HeaderEntry.equals() inherets Object.equals() which simply check if two objects are the same.
So it returns false even when two HeaderEntry objects have the same name and value.
Modifications:
Implement HeaderEntry.equals() that follows the specification of Map.Entry.equals().
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/util/Map.Entry.html#equals-java.lang.Object-
Result:
HeaderEntry.equals() returns true if two HeaderEntry objects have the same name and value.
Motivation:
HttpHeaders.getBoolean should return the same truth value for the same string value, regardless of the underlying type.
Modifications:
- Only treat values of true as Boolean.TRUE
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Consistent converting of values for all CharSequence implementations.
Motivation:
Headers.get* methods should not throw an exception but return null or the default value if converting of the value fails.
Modifications:
- Correctly handle the case when ValueConverter throws an Exception.
- Add testcase.
Result:
Fixes [#7710].
Motivation:
According to RFC 1952, concatenation of valid gzip streams is also a valid gzip stream. JdkZlibDecoder only processed the first and discarded the rest.
Modifications:
- Introduced a constructor argument decompressConcatenated that if true, JdkZlibDecoder would continue to process the stream.
Result:
- If 'decompressConcatenated = true', concatenated streams would be processed in
compliance to RFC 1952.
- If 'decompressConcatenated = false' (default), existing behavior would remain.
Motivation:
Even if it's a super micro-optimization (most JVM could optimize such
cases in runtime), in theory (and according to some perf tests) it
may help a bit. It also makes a code more clear and allows you to
access such methods in the test scope directly, without instance of
the class.
Modifications:
Add 'static' modifier for all methods, where it possible. Mostly in
test scope.
Result:
Cleaner code with proper 'static' modifiers.
Motivation:
Without a 'serialVersionUID' field, any change to a class will make
previously serialized versions unreadable.
Modifications:
Add missed 'serialVersionUID' field for all Serializable
classes.
Result:
Proper deserialization of previously serialized objects.
Motivation:
A large frame will be componsed by many packages. Every time the package
arrived, findEndOfLine will be called from the start of the buffer. It
will cause the complexity of reading frame equal to O(n^2). This can be
eliminated by using a offset to mark the last scan position, when new
package arrived, just find the delimter from the mark. The complexity
will be O(n).
Modification:
Add a offset to mark the last scan position.
Result:
Better performance for read large frame.
Motivation:
The Headers interface supports an interface to get all the headers values corresponding to a particular name. This API returns a List which requires intermediate storage and increases GC pressure.
Modifications:
- Add a method which returns an iterator over all the values for a specific name
Result:
Ability to iterator over values for a specific name with no intermediate collection.
This reverts commit d63bb4811e as this not covered correctly all cases and so could lead to missing fireChannelReadComplete() calls. We will re-evalute d63bb4811e and resbumit a pr once we are sure all is handled correctly
Motivation:
'insideString' and 'openBraces' need a proper handling when streaming
Json array over multiple writes and an element decoding was started but
not completed.
Related to #6969
Modifications:
If the idx is reset:
- 'insideString' has to be reset to 'false' in order to indicate that
array element will be decoded from the beginning
- 'openBraces' has to be reset to '1' to indicate that Json array
decoding is in progress.
Result:
Json array is properly decoded when in streaming mode
Motivation:
Its wasteful and also confusing that channelReadComplete() is called even if there was no message forwarded to the next handler.
Modifications:
- Only call ctx.fireChannelReadComplete() if at least one message was decoded
- Add unit test
Result:
Less confusing behavior. Fixes [#4312].
Motivation:
1. Hash function in the Snappy encoding is wrong probably: used '+' instead of '*'. See the reference implementation [1].
2. Size of the hash table is calculated, but not applied.
Modifications:
1. Fix hash function: replace addition by multiplication.
2. Allocate hash table with calculated size.
3. Use an `Integer.numberOfLeadingZeros` trick for calculate log2.
4. Release buffers in tests.
Result:
1. Better compression. In the test `encodeAndDecodeLongTextUsesCopy` now compressed size is 175 instead of 180 before this change.
2. No redundant allocations for hash table.
3. A bit faster the calc of shift (less an expensive math operations).
[1] 513df5fb5a/snappy.cc (L67)
Motivation:
Calling JsonObjectDecoder#reset while streaming Json array over multiple
writes causes CorruptedFrameException to be thrown.
Modifications:
While streaming Json array and if the current readerIndex has been reset,
ensure that the states will not be reset.
Result:
Fixes#6969
Motivation:
Lz4FrameEncoder maintains internal state, but the life cycle of the buffer is not consistently managed. The buffer is allocated in handlerAdded but freed in close, but the buffer can still be used until handlerRemoved is called.
Modifications:
- Move the cleanup of the buffer from close to handlerRemoved
- Explicitly throw an EncoderException from Lz4FrameEncoder if the encode operation has finished and there isn't enough space to write data
Result:
No more NPE in Lz4FrameEncoder on the buffer.
Motivation:
ByteToMessageDecoder#handlerRemoved will immediately release the cumulation buffer, but it is possible that a child class may still be using this buffer, and therefore use a dereferenced buffer.
Modifications:
- ByteToMessageDecoder#handlerRemoved and ByteToMessageDecoder#decode should coordinate to avoid the case where a child class is using the cumulation buffer but ByteToMessageDecoder releases that buffer.
Result:
Child classes of ByteToMessageDecoder are less likely to reference a released buffer.
Motivation:
We not correctly guarded against overflow and so call Base64.encode(...) with a big buffer may lead to an overflow when calculate the size of the out buffer.
Modifications:
Correctly guard against overflow.
Result:
Fixes [#6620].
Motivation:
If a read-only ByteBuf is passed to the ByteToMessageDecoder.channelRead(...) method we need to make a copy of it once we try to merge buffers for cumulation. This usually is not the case but can for example happen if the local transport is used. This was the cause of the leak report we sometimes saw during the codec-http2 tests, as we are using the local transport and write a read-only buffer. This buffer will then be passed to the peer channel and fired through the pipeline and so end up as the cumulation buffer in the ByteToMessageDecoder. Once the next fragement is received we tried to merge these and failed with a ReadOnlyBufferException which then produced a leak.
Modifications:
Ensure we copy the buffer if its read-only.
Result:
No more exceptions and so leak when a read-only buffer is passed to ByteToMessageDecoder.channelRead(...)
Motivation:
In an effort to better understand how the XmlFrameDecoder works, I consulted the tests to find a method that would reframe the inputs as per the Javadocs for that class. I couldn't find any methods that seemed to be doing it, so I wanted to add one to reinforce my understanding.
Modification:
Add a new test method to XmlFrameDecoder to assert that the reframing works as described.
Result:
New test method is added to XmlFrameDecoder
