Motivation:
Reason code for MQTT SUBACK messages is truncated, thus not allowing to get new codes supported by MQTT v.5
Modification:
Changed `MqttCodecTest.testUnsubAckMessageForMqtt5` to catch it then, removed truncation in `MqttDecoder.decodeSubackPayload` to make it pass.
Result:
Codec users can get all reason codes supported by MQTT5 now.
Motivation:
There was no way to read MQTT properties outside of `io.netty.handler.codec.mqtt` package
Modification:
Expose `MqttProperties.MqttProperty` fields `value` and `propertyId` via public methods
Result:
It's possible to read MQTT properties now
Recent changes for MQTT5 may cause NPE if UNSUBACK message is created with `MqttMessageFactory`
and client code isn't up-to-date.
Modifications:
Added default body in `MqttUnsubAckMessage` constructor if null body is passed,
added null checks in `encodeUnsubAckMessage`
Result:
`MqttUnsubAckMessage` created with `MqttMessageFactory` doesn't cause NPE
even if null body is supplied.
Motivation:
Impossible to specify retained messages handling policy because the corresponding enum
isn't public (https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/10562)
Modification:
Made `RetainedHandlingPolicy` public
Result:
Fixes#10562.
Reduce garbage on MQTT encoding
Motivation:
MQTT encoding and decoding is doing unnecessary object allocation in a number of places:
- MqttEncoder create many byte[] to encode Strings into UTF-8 bytes
- MqttProperties uses Integer keys instead of int
- Some enums valueOf create unnecessary arrays on the hot paths
- MqttDecoder was using unecessary Result<T>
Modification:
- ByteBufUtil::utf8Bytes and ByteBufUtil::reserveAndWriteUtf8 allows to perform the same operation GC-free
- MqttProperties uses a primitive key map
- Implemented GC free const table lookup/switch valueOf
- Use some bit-tricks to pack 2 ints into a single primitive long to store both result and numberOfBytesConsumed and use byte[].length to compute numberOfByteConsumed on fly. These changes allowed to save creating Result<T>.
Result:
Significantly less garbage produced in MQTT encoding/decoding
Motivation:
MQTT Specification version 5 was released over a year ago,
netty-codec-mqtt should be changed to support it.
Modifications:
Added more message and header types in `io.netty.handler.codec.mqtt`
package in `netty-coded-mqtt` subproject,
changed `MqttEncoder` and `MqttDecoder` to handle them properly,
added attribute `NETTY_CODEC_MQTT_VERSION` to track protocol version
Result:
`netty-codec-mqtt` supports both MQTT5 and MQTT3 now.
Motivation
ByteBuf has an isAccessible method which was introduced as part of ref
counting optimizations but there are some places still doing
accessibility checks by accessing the volatile refCnt() directly.
Modifications
- Have PooledNonRetained(Duplicate|Sliced)ByteBuf#isAccessible() use
their refcount delegate's isAccessible() method
- Add static isAccessible(buf) and ensureAccessible(buf) methods to
ByteBufUtil
(since ByteBuf#isAccessible() is package-private)
- Adjust DefaultByteBufHolder and similar classes to use these methods
rather than access refCnt() directly
Result
- More efficient accessibility checks in more places
Motivation:
Mqtt procotol defines packetId instead of messageId, replace deprecated method to match protocol definition
Modification:
Replace messageId() to packetId() in MqttEncoder
Result:
Match mqtt protocol definition and improve readability.
Motivation:
Currently, the only way to create fixed-header only messages PINGREQ,
PINGRESP and DISCONNECT is to explicitly instantiate a `MqttFixedHeader` like:
```
MqttFixedHeader disconnectFixedHeader = new MqttFixedHeader(MqttMessageType.DISCONNECT,
false, MqttQoS.AT_MOST_ONCE, false, 0);
MqttMessage disconnectMessage = new MqttMessage(disconnectFixedHeader);
```
According to the MQTT spec
(http://docs.oasis-open.org/mqtt/mqtt/v3.1.1/os/mqtt-v3.1.1-os.html#_Toc398718077),
the fixed-header flags for these messages are reserved and must be set to zero, otherwise
the receiver must close the connection. It's easy to mess this up when
you're creating the header explicitly, for e.g by setting the QoS bit to
`AT_LEAST_ONCE`.
As such, provide static constants for PINGREQ, PINGRESP and
DISCONNECT messages that will set the flags correctly for the developer.
Modification:
Add static constants to MqttMessage class to construct PINGREQ, PINGRESP and
DISCONNECT messages that will set the fixed-header flags correctly to 0.
Result:
Easier usage.
Motivation:
The toString() method should use Arrays.toString() to produce a meaningful String representation for arrays.
Modification:
Use Arrays.toString()
Result:
More useful toString() implementation
Motivation:
The toString() methods of MqttSubscribePayload and MqttUnsubscribePayload are causing exceptions when no topics are set.
Modification:
The toString() methods will not throw Excpetions anymore.
Result:
Fixes#9197
Motivation:
Most of the maven modules do not explicitly declare their
dependencies and rely on transitivity, which is not always correct.
Modifications:
For all maven modules, add all of their dependencies to pom.xml
Result:
All of the (essentially non-transitive) depepdencies of the modules are explicitly declared in pom.xml
Motivation:
When the MqttDecoder decodes a message larger than the 'maxBytesInMessage' a DecoderException is thrown and a MqttMessage with just the failure cause is returned. Even if I can't handle the message, I might want to send an ACK so that I won't have to worry about it again.
Modification:
The DecoderException is thrown after the variableHeader is decoded. The fixed and variable headers are then added to the MqttMessage along with the failure cause.
Result:
The invalid MqttMessage will have headers if available.
Since 3.1.1 mqtt protocol version SUBACK message can now indicate the failure in payload.
Modification:
Do not erase failure payload in for SUBACK message.
Result:
Fixes#7665
Automatic-Module-Name entry provides a stable JDK9 module name, when Netty is used in a modular JDK9 applications. More info: http://blog.joda.org/2017/05/java-se-9-jpms-automatic-modules.html
When Netty migrates to JDK9 in the future, the entry can be replaced by actual module-info descriptor.
Modification:
The POM-s are configured to put the correct module names to the manifest.
Result:
Fixes#7218.
Motivation:
The MQTT decoder should raise an exception trying to build a CONNECT packet where password field is set but not the username one (as by MQTT 3.1/3.1.1 spec).
Modification:
Throw exception if password field is set but not the username
Result:
Fixes [#7205].
Motivation:
MQTT unknown message type isn't handled as decoding error
Modification:
Catching exception during the MQTT decoding of the fixed header
Adding a unit test for unknown MQTT message type
Result:
Fixes#6984.
