Motivation:
We forgot to do a null check on the cause parameter of
ChannelFuture.setFailure(cause)
Modifications:
Add a null check
Result:
Fixed issue: #2728
Motivation:
We did various changes related to the ChannelOutboundBuffer in 4.0 branch. This commit port all of them over and so make sure our branches are synced in terms of these changes.
Related to [#2734], [#2709], [#2729], [#2710] and [#2693] .
Modification:
Port all changes that was done on the ChannelOutboundBuffer.
This includes the port of the following commits:
- 73dfd7c01b
- 997d8c32d2
- e282e504f1
- 5e5d1a58fd
- 8ee3575e72
- d6f0d12a86
- 16e50765d1
- 3f3e66c31a
Result:
- Less memory usage by ChannelOutboundBuffer
- Same code as in 4.0 branch
- Make it possible to use ChannelOutboundBuffer with Channel implementation that not extends AbstractChannel
Motivation:
If the requests contains uri parameters but not path the HttpRequestEncoder does produce an invalid uri while try to add the missing path.
Modifications:
Correctly handle the case of uri with paramaters but no path.
Result:
HttpRequestEncoder produce correct uri in all cases.
Related issue: #2733
Motivation:
Unlike OpenSsl, Epoll lacks a couple useful availability checker
methods:
- ensureAvailability()
- unavailabilityCause()
Modifications:
Add missing methods
Result:
More ways to check the availability and to get the cause of
unavailability programatically.
Motivation:
Currently it is not possible to load an encrypted private key when
creating a JDK based SSL server context.
Modifications:
- Added static method to JdkSslServerContext which handles key spec generation for (encrypted) private keys and make use of it.
-Added tests for creating a SSL server context based on a (encrypted)
private key.
Result:
It is now possible to create a JDK based SSL server context with an
encrypted (password protected) private key.
Motivation:
There were two buffer leaks in the codec-dns.
Modifications:
- Fix buffer leak in DnsResponseTest.readResponseTest()
- Correctly release DnsResources on Exception
Result:
No more buffer leaks in the codec-dns module.
Motivation:
Before this changes Bzip2BitReader and Bzip2BitWriter accessed to ByteBuf byte by byte. So tests for Bzip2 compression codec takes a lot of time if we ran them with paranoid level of resource leak detection. For more information see comments to #2681 and #2689.
Modifications:
- Increased size of bit buffers from 8 to 64 bits.
- Improved reading and writing operations.
- Save link to incoming ByteBuf inside Bzip2BitReader.
- Added methods to check possible readable bits and bytes in Bzip2BitReader.
- Updated Bzip2 classes to use new API of Bzip2BitReader.
- Added new constants to Bzip2Constants.
Result:
Increased size of bit buffers and improved performance of Bzip2 compression codec (for general work by 13% and for tests with paranoid level of resource leak detection by 55%).
Motivation:
As /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn does not exists on non-linux platforms you see a noisy stacktrace when debug level is enabled while the static method of NetUtil is executed.
Modifications:
Check if the file exists before try to parse it.
Result:
Less noisy logging on non-linux platforms.
Related issue: #2354
Motivation:
AbstractConstant.compareTo() can return 0 even if the specified constant
object is not the same instance with 'this'.
Modifications:
- Compare the identityHashCode of constant first. If that fails,
allocate a small direct buffer and use its memory address as a unique
value. If the platform does not provide a way to get the memory
address of a direct buffer, use a thread-local random value.
- Signal cannot extend AbstractConstant. Use delegation.
Result:
It is practically impossible for AbstractConstant.compareTo() to return
0 for different constant objects.
Motivation:
We sometimes not use the correct exception message when throw it from the native code.
Modifications:
Fixed the message.
Result:
Correct message in exception
Motivation:
The PID_MAX_LIMIT on 64bit linux systems is 4194304 and on osx it is 99998. At the moment we use 65535 as an upper-limit which is too small.
Modifications:
Use 4194304 as max possible value
Result:
No more false-positives when try to detect current pid.
Motivation:
DnsResource.duplicate() should return DnsResource and not ByteBufHolder
Modifications:
Change return type from ByteBufHolder to DnsResource
Result:
No need to cast to the correct type when using duplicate()
Motivation:
We have some inconsistency when handling writes. Sometimes we call ChannelOutboundBuffer.progress(...) also for complete writes and sometimes not. We should call it always.
Modifications:
Correctly call ChannelOuboundBuffer.progress(...) for complete and incomplete writes.
Result:
Consistent behavior
Motivation:
While optimize gathering writes I introduced a bug when writing single ByteBuf that have a memoryAddress. This regression was introduced by 88bd6e7a93.
Modifications:
Correctly use the writerIndex as argument when call Native.writeAddress(...)
Result:
No more corruption while write single buffers.
Motivation:
While benchmarking the native transport with gathering writes I noticed that it is quite slow. This is due the fact that we need to do a lot of array copies to get the buffers into the iov array.
Modification:
Introduce a new class calles IovArray which allows to fill buffers directly in a iov array that can be passed over to JNI without any array copies. This gives a nice optimization in terms of speed when doing gathering writes.
Result:
Big performance improvement when doing gathering writes. See the included benchmark...

Motivation:
Due some race-condition while handling canellation of TimerTasks it was possibleto corrupt the linked-list structure that is represent by HashedWheelBucket and so produce a NPE.
Modification:
Fix the problem by adding another MpscLinkedQueue which holds the cancellation tasks and process them on each tick. This allows to use no synchronization / locking at all while introduce a latency of max 1 tick before the TimerTask can be GC'ed.
Result:
No more NPE
Motivation:
In ReplayingDecoder / ByteToMessageDecoder channelInactive(...) method we try to decode a last time and fire all decoded messages throw the pipeline before call ctx.fireChannelInactive(...). To keep the correct order of events we also need to call ctx.fireChannelReadComplete() if we read anything.
Modifications:
- Channel channelInactive(...) to call ctx.fireChannelReadComplete() if something was decoded
- Move out.recycle() to finally block
Result:
Correct order of events.
Related issue: #2688
- DnsClass and DnsType
- Make DnsClass and DnsType implement Comparable
- Optimize the message generation of IllegalArgumentException,
by pre-populating the list of the expected parameters
- Move the static methods up
- Relax the validation rule of DnsClass so that a user can define a
CLASS which is not listed in the RFC 1035
- valueOf(int) does not throw IllegalArgumentException anymore as long
as the specified value is an unsigned short.
- Rename create() and forName() to valueOf() so that they look like a
real enum
- Rename type() and clazz() to intValue() so that they conform to our
naming convention
- Add missing null checks in DnsEntry
Motivation:
DNS class and type were represented as integers rather than an enum or a
similar dedicated value type. This can be a potential source of a
parameter order bug which might be difficult to track down.
Modifications:
Add DnsClass and DnsType to replace integer parameters
Result:
Type safety and less error-proneness
Motivation:
Complicated code of Bzip2 tests with some unnecessary actions.
Modifications:
- Reduce size of BYTES_LARGE array of random test data for Bzip2 tests.
- Removed unnecessary creations of EmbeddedChannel instances in Bzip2 tests.
- Simplified tests in Bzip2DecoderTest which expect exception.
- Removed unnecessary testStreamInitialization() from Bzip2EncoderTest.
Result:
Reduced time to test the 'codec' package by 7 percent, simplified code of Bzip2 tests.
Motivation:
Duplicated code of integration tests for different compression codecs.
Modifications:
- Added abstract class IntegrationTest which contains common tests for any compression codec.
- Removed common tests from Bzip2IntegrationTest and LzfIntegrationTest.
- Implemented abstract methods of IntegrationTest in Bzip2IntegrationTest, LzfIntegrationTest and SnappyIntegrationTest.
Result:
Removed duplicated code of integration tests for compression codecs and simplified an addition of integration tests for new compression codecs.
Motivation:
ChannelOutboundBuffer is basically a circular array queue of its entry
objects. Once an entry is created in the array, it is never nulled out
to reduce the allocation cost.
However, because it is a circular queue, the array almost always ends up
with as many entry instances as the size of the array, regardless of the
number of pending writes.
At worst case, a channel might have only 1 pending writes at maximum
while creating 32 entry objects, where 32 is the initial capacity of the
array.
Modifications:
- Reduce the initial capacity of the circular array queue to 4.
- Make the initial capacity of the circular array queue configurable
Result:
We spend 4 times less memory for entry objects under certain
circumstances.
Motivation:
Sometimes we have a 'build time out' error because tests for bzip2 codec take a long time.
Modifications:
Removed cycles from Bzip2EncoderTest.testCompression(byte[]) and Bzip2DecoderTest.testDecompression(byte[]).
Result:
Reduced time to test the 'codec' package by 30 percent.
Motivation:
When decoding the NAME field in a DNS Resource Record, DnsResponseDecoder
can raise a NullPointerException if the NAME field contains a loop.
Modification:
Instead of raising an NPE, raise CorruptedFrameException so that the
exception itself has meaning.
Result:
Less confusing when a malformed DNS RR is received
Motivation:
NullPointerException is raised when a DNS response conrains a resource
record whose NAME is empty, which is the case for the authority section.
Modification:
Allow an empty name for DnsEntry. Only disallow an empty name for
DnsQuestion.
Result:
Fixes#2686
- Rewrite with linear probing, no state array, compaction at cleanup
- Optimize keys() and values() to not use reflection
- Optimize hashCode() and equals() for efficient iteration
- Fixed equals() to not return true for equals(null)
- Optimize iterator to not allocate new Entry at each next()
- Added toString()
- Added some new unit tests
Motivation:
Message from FindBugs:
This method performs synchronization an object that is an instance of a class from the java.util.concurrent package (or its subclasses). Instances of these classes have their own concurrency control mechanisms that are orthogonal to the synchronization provided by the Java keyword synchronized. For example, synchronizing on an AtomicBoolean will not prevent other threads from modifying the AtomicBoolean.
Such code may be correct, but should be carefully reviewed and documented, and may confuse people who have to maintain the code at a later date.
Modification:
Use synchronized(this)
Result:
Less confusing code
Motivation:
At the moment we use Get*ArrayElement all the time in the epoll transport which may be wasteful as the JVM may do a memory copy for this. For code-path that will get executed fast (without blocking) we should better make use of GetPrimitiveArrayCritical and ReleasePrimitiveArrayCritical as this signal the JVM that we not want to do any memory copy if not really needed. It is important to only do this on non-blocking code-path as this may even suspend the GC to disallow the JVM to move the arrays around.
See also http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jni/spec/functions.html#GetPrimitiveArrayCritical
Modification:
Make use of GetPrimitiveArrayCritical / ReleasePrimitiveArrayCritical as replacement for Get*ArrayElement / Release*ArrayElement where possible.
Result:
Better performance due less memory copies.
Motivation:
In EpollSocketchannel.writeBytesMultiple(...) we loop over all buffers to see if we need to adjust the readerIndex for incomplete writes. We can skip this if we know that everything was written (a.k.a complete write).
Modification:
Use fast-path if all bytes are written and so no need to loop over buffers
Result:
Fast write path for the average use.
Motivation:
At the moment NioSocketChannelOutboundBuffer.nioBuffers() / EpollSocketChannelOutboundBuffer.memoryAddresses() returns null if something is contained in the ChannelOutboundBuffer which is not a ByteBuf. This is a problem for two reasons:
1 - In the javadocs we state that it will never return null
2 - We may do a not optimal write as there may be things that could be written via gathering writes
Modifications:
Change NioSocketChannelOutboundBuffer.nioBuffers() / EpollSocketChannelOutboundBuffer.memoryAddresses() to never return null but have it contain all ByteBuffer that were found before the non ByteBuf. This way we can do a gathering write and also conform to the javadocs.
Result:
Better speed and also correct implementation in terms of the api.
Motivation:
DNS packets that contain pointers in a loop will cause
DnsResponseDecoder.readName() to infinite loop.
Modifications:
Fixed DnsResponseDecoder.readName() to detect when packets have loops
and return null instead.
Result:
It is no longer possible to cause Netty to infinite loop by sending it malformed
DNS packets with a loop.
Motivation:
Now Netty has a few problems with null values.
Modifications:
- Check HAProxyProxiedProtocol in HAProxyMessage constructor and throw NPE if it is null.
If HAProxyProxiedProtocol is null we will set AddressFamily as null. So we will get NPE inside checkAddress(String, AddressFamily) and it won't be easy to understand why addrFamily is null.
- Check File in DiskFileUpload.toString().
If File is null we will get NPE when calling toString() method.
- Check Result<String> in MqttDecoder.decodeConnectionPayload(...).
If !mqttConnectVariableHeader.isWillFlag() || !mqttConnectVariableHeader.hasUserName() || !mqttConnectVariableHeader.hasPassword() we will get NPE when we will try to create new instance of MqttConnectPayload.
- Check Unsafe before calling unsafe.getClass() in PlatformDependent0 static block.
- Removed unnecessary null check in WebSocket08FrameEncoder.encode(...).
Because msg.content() can not return null.
- Removed unnecessary null check in DefaultStompFrame(StompCommand) constructor.
Because we have this check in the super class.
- Removed unnecessary null checks in ConcurrentHashMapV8.removeTreeNode(TreeNode<K,V>).
- Removed unnecessary null check in OioDatagramChannel.doReadMessages(List<Object>).
Because tmpPacket.getSocketAddress() always returns new SocketAddress instance.
- Removed unnecessary null check in OioServerSocketChannel.doReadMessages(List<Object>).
Because socket.accept() always returns new Socket instance.
- Pass Unpooled.buffer(0) instead of null inside CloseWebSocketFrame(boolean, int) constructor.
If we will pass null we will get NPE in super class constructor.
- Added throw new IllegalStateException in GlobalEventExecutor.awaitInactivity(long, TimeUnit) if it will be called before GlobalEventExecutor.execute(Runnable).
Because now we will get NPE. IllegalStateException will be better in this case.
- Fixed null check in OpenSslServerContext.setTicketKeys(byte[]).
Now we throw new NPE if byte[] is not null.
Result:
Added new null checks when it is necessary, removed unnecessary null checks and fixed some NPE problems.
Motivation:
Fix some typos in Netty.
Modifications:
- Fix potentially dangerous use of non-short-circuit logic in Recycler.transfer(Stack<?>).
- Removed double 'the the' in javadoc of EmbeddedChannel.
- Write to log an exception message if we can not get SOMAXCONN in the NetUtil's static block.
Motivation:
Fixed founded mistakes in compression codecs.
Modifications:
- Changed return type of ZlibUtil.inflaterException() from CompressionException to DecompressionException
- Updated @throws in javadoc of JZlibDecoder to throw DecompressionException instead of CompressionException
- Fixed JdkZlibDecoder to throw DecompressionException instead of CompressionException
- Removed unnecessary empty lines in JdkZlibEncoder and JZlibEncoder
- Removed public modifier from Snappy class
- Added MAX_UNCOMPRESSED_DATA_SIZE constant in SnappyFramedDecoder
- Used in.readableBytes() instead of (in.writerIndex() - in.readerIndex()) in SnappyFramedDecoder
- Added private modifier for enum ChunkType in SnappyFramedDecoder
- Fixed potential bug (sum overflow) in Bzip2HuffmanAllocator.first(). For more info, see http://googleresearch.blogspot.ru/2006/06/extra-extra-read-all-about-it-nearly.html
Result:
Fixed sum overflow in Bzip2HuffmanAllocator, improved exceptions in ZlibDecoder implementations, hid Snappy class
Modifications:
- Added a static modifier for CompositeByteBuf.Component.
This class is an inner class, but does not use its embedded reference to the object which created it. This reference makes the instances of the class larger, and may keep the reference to the creator object alive longer than necessary.
- Removed unnecessary boxing/unboxing operations in HttpResponseDecoder, RtspResponseDecoder, PerMessageDeflateClientExtensionHandshaker and PerMessageDeflateServerExtensionHandshaker
A boxed primitive is created from a String, just to extract the unboxed primitive value.
- Removed unnecessary 3 times calculations in DiskAttribute.addContent(...).
- Removed unnecessary checks if file exists before call mkdirs() in NativeLibraryLoader and PlatformDependent.
Because the method mkdirs() has this check inside.
- Removed unnecessary `instanceof AsciiString` check in StompSubframeAggregator.contentLength(StompHeadersSubframe) and StompSubframeDecoder.getContentLength(StompHeaders, long).
Because StompHeaders.get(CharSequence) always returns java.lang.String.
Motivation:
We create a new CompactObjectInputStream with ByteBufInputStream in ObjectDecoder.decode(...) method and don't close this InputStreams before return statement.
Modifications:
Save link to the ObjectInputStream and close it before return statement.
Result:
Close InputStreams and clean up unused resources. It will be better for GC.
