Motivation:
It's better to make all InternalLoggerFactory implementations be singletons according to the discussions in #5047
Modifications:
Make all InternalLoggerFactory implementations be singletons and hide the construtors.
Result:
All InternalLoggerFactory implementations be singletons.
Motivation:
Fixes#5084. We (gRPC) encountered a bug that was triggered by
grpc/grpc-java@d927180. After that commit, event loop threads are
created per task by NioEventLoopGroup, and inherits the thread group of
the caller, which in our case is an application-provided request-scope
thread. Things go south when the application tries to manipulate (e.g.,
interrupt and join) all threads of the request-scope thread group, which
unexpectedly include the event loop threads.
Modifications:
DefaultThreadFactory will save the current thread group in constructor,
and apply it to all new threads.
Result:
Threads created by DefaultThreadFactory will be in the same thread group
as the thread where the factory is created.
Related: #3449
Motivation:
When a user shut down an EventExecutor/Loop prematurely, a Promise will
fail to execute its listeners. When it happens, DefaultPromise will log
a message at ERROR level, but there's no way to get notified about it
programmatically.
Modifications:
Do not catch and log the RejectedExecutionException unconditionally,
but only catch and log for non-late listener notifications, so that a
user gets notified on submission failure at least when the listener is
late.
Result:
Remedies #3449 to some extent, although we will need fundamental fix for
that, such as #3566
Motivation:
See #3095
Modifications:
Add Log4J2LoggerFactory and Log4J2Logger which is an InternalLogger implementation based on log4j2.
Result:
The user can use log4j2 directly without a special slf4j binding.
Motivation:
Under high throughput/low latency workloads, selector wakeups are
degrading performance when the incoming operations are triggered
from outside of the event loop. This is a common scenario for
"client" applications where the originating input is coming from
application threads rather from the socket attached inside the
event loops.
As a result, it can be desirable to defer the blocking select
so that incoming tasks (write/flush) do not need to wakeup
the selector.
Modifications:
This changeset adds the notion of a generic SelectStrategy which,
based on its contract, allows the implementation to optionally
defer the blocking select based on some custom criteria.
The default implementation resembles the original behaviour, that
is if tasks are in the queue `selectNow()` and move on, and if no
tasks need to be processed go into the blocking select and wait
for wakeup.
The strategy can be customized per `NioEventLoopGroup` in the
constructor.
Result:
High performance client applications are now given the chance to
customize for how long the actual selector blocking should be
deferred by employing a custom select strategy.
Motivation:
The current slow path of FastThreadLocal is much slower than JDK ThreadLocal. See #4418
Modifications:
- Add FastThreadLocalSlowPathBenchmark for the flow path of FastThreadLocal
- Add final to speed up the slow path of FastThreadLocal
Result:
The slow path of FastThreadLocal is improved.
Motivation:
It should be possible to disable the Recycler with -Dio.netty.recycler.maxCapacity=0, but because of a typo this is not the case.
Modifications:
Replace <= with < to make it posible to disable the Recycler.
Result:
Correct behaviour when using -Dio.netty.recycler.maxCapacity=0
Motivation:
Fix a typo in the log message of the static initializer of Recycler.
Modifications:
Fix typo.
Result:
Correctly log system property io.netty.recycler.maxCapacity.
Motivation:
We want to allow the use of an uber jar that contains shared dynamic libraries for all platforms (including fedora).
Modifications:
Modified OpenSsl to try and load the fedora library if the OS is Linux and the platform specified library fails before using the default lib.
Result:
True uber support.
Motivation:
PromiseAggregator's API allows for the aggregate promise to complete before the user is done adding promises. In order to support this use case the API structure would need to change in a breaking manner.
Modifications:
- Deprecate PromiseAggregator and subclasses
- Introduce PromiseCombiner which corrects these issues
Result:
PromiseCombiner corrects the deficiencies in PromiseAggregator.
Motivation:
A custom SecurityManager may prevent calling File.exists() and so throw a SecurityException in the static init block of NetUtil.
Modifications:
Correctly catch the exception and so allow to static init NetUtil.
Result:
Allow static init method of NetUtil to work even with custom SecurityManager.
Motivation:
See #3321
Modifications:
1. Add CharsetUtil.encoder/decoder() methods
2. Deprecate CharsetUtil.getEncoder/getDecoder() methods
Result:
Users can use new CharsetUtil.encoder/decoder() to specify error actions
Motivation:
See #3746.
Modifications:
Fork SpscLinkedQueue and SpscLinkedAtomicQueue from JCTools based on 7846450e28
Result:
Add SpscLinkedQueue and SpscLinkedAtomicQueue and apply it in LocalChannel.
Motivation:
If the Future that the PromiseNotifier is listening to is cancelled, it does not propagate the cancel to all the promises it is expected to notify.
Modifications:
- If the future is cancelled then all the promises should be cancelled
- Add a UnaryPromiseNotifier if a collection of promises is not necessary
Result:
PromiseNotifier propagates cancel events to all promises
Motivation:
See #4855
Modifications:
Unfortunately, unescapeCsv cannot be used here because the input could be a CSV line like `"a,b",c`. Hence this patch adds unescapeCsvFields to parse a CSV line and split it into multiple fields and unescaped them. The unit tests should define the behavior of unescapeCsvFields.
Then this patch just uses unescapeCsvFields to implement `CombinedHttpHeaders.getAll`.
Result:
`CombinedHttpHeaders.getAll` will return the unescaped values of a header.
Motivation:
ResourceLeakDetector enforces a limit as to how large the queue is allowed to grow for stack traces in order to keep memory from growing too large. However it is not always clear when records are dropped, or how many have been dropped. This can make interpreting leak reports more difficult if you assume all information is present when it may not be. Also we should increase the limit (currently 4) when running tests on the CI servers.
Modifications:
- Increase leak detector record limit on CI servers from 4 to 32.
- Track how many records have been discarded and disclose this in the leak report.
Result:
Leak reports clarify how many records were dropped, and how to increase the limit.
Motivation:
The implementation of obtaining the best possible mac address is very good. There are many sub-par implementations proposed on stackoverflow.
While not strictly a netty concern, it would be nice to offer this util also to netty users.
Modifications:
extract DefaultChannelId#defaultMachineId code obtaining the "best" mac into a new helper called MacAddress, keep the random bytes fallback in DefaultChannelID.
Result:
New helper available.
Motivation:
See #3411. A reusable ArrayList in InternalThreadLocalMap can avoid allocations in the following pattern:
```
List<...> list = new ArrayList<...>();
add something to list but never use InternalThreadLocalMap
return list.toArray(new ...[list.size()]);
```
Modifications:
Add a reusable ArrayList to InternalThreadLocalMap and update codes to use it.
Result:
Reuse a thread local ArrayList to avoid allocations.
Motivation:
PlatformDependent0 has an optimization which grabs the char[] from a String. Since this code was introduced http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/254 has been gaining momentum in JDK 9. This JEP changes the internal storage from char[] to byte[], and thus the existing char[] only based optimizations will not work.
Modifications:
- The ASCII encoding char[] String optimizations should also work for byte[].
Result:
ASCII encoding char[] String optimizations don't break if the underlying storage in String is byte[].
Motivation:
In AsciiString.trim, last should be `arrayOffset() + length() - 1`. See #4741.
Modifications:
Fix the last value.
Result:
AsciiString.trim works correctly.
Motivation:
PlatformDependent allows some exceptions to escape during static initialization. If an exception escapes it will be translated into a java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError and render the application unable to run.
Modifications:
- Make sure to catch Throwable during static initialization.
Result:
PlatformDependent static initialization doesn't result in java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError.
Motivation:
Sometimes a user want to do async mappings in the SniHandler as it is not possible to populate a Mapping up front.
Modifications:
Add AsyncMapping interface and make SniHandler work with it.
Result:
It is possible to do async mappings for SNI
Motivation:
HttpConversionUtil.toHttp2Headers currently has a throws Exception as part of the signature. This comes from the signature of ByteProcessor.process, but is not necessary because the ByteProcessor used does not throw.
Modifications:
- Remove throws Exception from the signature of HttpConversionUtil.toHttp2Headers.
Result:
HttpConversionUtil.toHttp2Headers interface does not propagate a throws Exception when it is used.
Motivation:
Caching is currently nested in DnsResolver.
It should also be possible to extend DnsResolver to ba able to pass a different cache on each resolution attemp.
Modifications:
* Introduce DnsCache, NoopDnsCache and DefaultDnsCache. The latter contains all the current caching logic that was extracted.
* Introduce protected versions of doResolve and doResolveAll that can be used as extension points to build resolvers that bypass the main cache and use a different one on each resolution.
Result:
Isolated caching logic. Better extensibility.
Motivation:
* newAtomicIntegerFieldUpdater and newAtomicLongFieldUpdater take a
class<?> so they're too lax
* newAtomicReferenceFieldUpdater takes a Class<U> so it's too strict
and can only be passe a rawtype parameter when dealing w/ generic
classes
Modifications:
Take a Class<? super T> parameter instead.
Result:
Better type safety and generics support.
Motivation:
Warnings in IDE, unclean code, negligible performance impact.
Modification:
Deletion of unused imports
Result:
No more warnings in IDE, cleaner code, negligible performance improvement.
Motivation:
Javadoc reports errors about invalid docs.
Modifications:
Fix some errors reported by javadoc.
Result:
A lot of javadoc errors are fixed by this patch.
Motivation:
There are some wrong links and tags in javadoc.
Modifications:
Fix the wrong links and tags in javadoc.
Result:
These links will work correctly in javadoc.
Motivation:
DomainNameMapping.add() makes DomainNameMapping look like it's safe to call add() anytime, and this is never true. It's probably better deprecate add() and introduce DomainNameMappingBuilder.
Modifications:
Made an immutable implementation of DomainNameMapping;
Added Builder for immutable DomainNameMapping;
Replaced regex pattern with String::startsWith check;
Replaced HashMap with two arrays in ImmutableDomainNameMapping;
Deprecated mutable API;
Estimation for StringBuilder initial size in ImmutableDomainNameMapping#toString()
Added StringUtil#commonSuffixOfLength
Replaced unnecessary substrings creation in DomainNameMapping#matches with regionMatches
Result:
Clients will be able to create immutable instances of DomainNameMapping with builder API.
Motivation:
UTF-16 can not represent the full range of Unicode characters, and thus has the concept of Surrogate Pair (http://unicode.org/glossary/#surrogate_pair) where 2 16-bit code units can be used to represent the missing characters. ByteBufUtil.writeUtf8 is currently does not support this and is thus incomplete.
Modifications:
- Add support for surrogate pairs in ByteBufUtil.writeUtf8
Result:
ByteBufUtil.writeUtf8 now supports surrogate pairs and is correctly converting to UTF-8.
Motivation:
PriorityStreamByteDistributor uses a homegrown algorithm which distributes bytes to nodes in the priority tree. PriorityStreamByteDistributor has no concept of goodput which may result in poor utilization of network resources. PriorityStreamByteDistributor also has performance issues related to the tree traversal approach and number of nodes that must be visited. There also exists some more proven algorithms from the resource scheduling domain which PriorityStreamByteDistributor does not employ.
Modifications:
- Introduce a new ByteDistributor which uses elements from weighted fair queue schedulers
Result:
StreamByteDistributor which is sensitive to priority and uses a more familiar distribution concept.
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/4462
Motivation:
On contrary to `DefaultNameResolver`, `DnsNameResolver` doesn't currently honor hosts file.
Modifications:
* Introduce `HostsFileParser` that parses `/etc/hosts` or `C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts` depending on the platform
* Introduce `HostsFileEntriesResolver` that uses the former to resolve host names
* Make `DnsNameResolver` check his `HostsFileEntriesResolver` prior to trying to resolve names against the DNS server
* Introduce `DnsNameResolverBuilder` so we now have a builder for `DnsNameResolver`s
* Additionally introduce a `CompositeNameResolver` that takes several `NameResolver`s and tries to resolve names by delegating sequentially
* Change `DnsNameResolver.asAddressResolver` to return a composite and honor hosts file
Result:
Hosts file support when using `DnsNameResolver`.
Consistent behavior with JDK implementation.
Motivation:
The KObjectHashMapTest is in a directory called "io.netty.util.collection" rather than "io/netty/util/collection". This causes the generated tests to be created in the wrong directory as well.
Modifications:
Moved the file.
Result:
Fixes#4546
Motivation:
Related to issue #4564.
AsciiString.contentEqualsIgnoreCase fails when comparing two AsciiStrings of the same length
Modifications:
Compare the values of the first AsciiString to the second AsciiString
Result:
AsciiString.contentEqualsIgnoreCase works as expected
Motivation:
DefaultPromiseTest has dead code which was left over from a code restructure. Shared code between 2 tests was moved into a common method, but some code which was not cleaned up in each of these methods after the code was moved.
Modifications:
- Delete dead code in DefaultPromiseTest
Result:
Less dead code
