Motivation:
We should not try to detect a free port in tests put just use 0 when bind so there is no race in which the system my bind something to the port we choosen before.
Modifications:
- Remove the usage of TestUtils.getFreePort() in the testsuite
- Remove hack to workaround bind errors which will not happen anymore now
Result:
Less flacky tests.
Motivation:
During 6b941e9bdb I introduced a regression that could cause an IllegalStateException.
A non-proper fix was commited as part of #3443. This commit add a proper fix.
Modifications:
Remove FileDescriptor.INVALID and add FileDescriptor.isOpen() as replacement. Once FileDescriptor.close() is called isOpen() will return false.
Result:
No more IllegalStateException caused by a close channel.
Motivation:
As we plan to have other native transports soon (like a kqueue transport) we should move unix classes/interfaces out of the epoll package so we
introduce other implementations without breaking stuff before the next stable release.
Modifications:
Create a new io.netty.channel.unix package and move stuff over there.
Result:
Possible to introduce other native impls beside epoll.
Motivation:
Sometimes it's useful to be able to create a Epoll*Channel from an existing file descriptor. This is especially helpful if you integrade some c/jni code.
Modifications:
- Add extra constructor to Epoll*Channel implementations that take a FileDescriptor as an argument
- Make Rename EpollFileDescriptor to NativeFileDescriptor and make it public
- Also ensure we obtain the correct remote/local address when create a Channel from a FileDescriptor
Result:
It's now possible to create a FileDescriptor and instance a Epoll*Channel via it.
Motiviation:
When using domain sockets on linux it is supported to recv and send file descriptors. This can be used to pass around for example sockets.
Modifications:
- Add support for recv and send file descriptors when using EpollDomainSocketChannel.
- Allow to obtain the file descriptor for an Epoll*Channel so it can be send via domain sockets.
Result:
recv and send of file descriptors is supported now.
