Motivation:
AsciiString.hashCode(o) , if "o" is a subString, the hash code is not always same, when netty’s version is 4.1.1.Final and jdk’s version is 1.6.
Modifications:
Use a test to assert hash codes are equal between a new string and any sub string (a part of a char array),If their values are equal.
Result:
Create a test method to AsciiStringCharacterTest.
Motivation:
PlatformDependent attempts to use reflection to get the underlying char[] (or byte[]) from String objects. This is fragile as if the String implementation does not utilize the full array, and instead uses a subset of the array, this optimization is invalid. OpenJDK6 and some earlier versions of OpenJDK7 String have the capability to use a subsection of the underlying char[].
Modifications:
- PlatformDependent should not attempt to use the underlying array from String (or other data types) via reflection
Result:
PlatformDependent hash code generation for CharSequence does not depend upon specific JDK implementation details.
Motivation:
PR #5355 modified interfaces to reduce GC related to the HPACK code. However this came with an anticipated performance regression related to HpackUtil.equals due to AsciiString's increase cost of charAt(..). We should mitigate this performance regression.
Modifications:
- Introduce an equals method in PlatformDependent which doesn't leak timing information and use this in HpcakUtil.equals
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5436
Modifications:
DefaultPromise provides a ThreadLocal queue to protect against StackOverflowError because of executors which may immediately execute runnables instead of queue them (i.e. ImmediateEventExecutor). However this may be better addressed by fixing these executors to protect against StackOverflowError instead of just fixing for a single use case. Also the most commonly used executors already provide the desired behavior and don't need the additional overhead of a ThreadLocal queue in DefaultPromise.
Modifications:
- Remove ThreadLocal queue from DefaultPromise
- Change ImmediateEventExecutor so it maintains a queue of runnables if reentrant condition occurs
Result:
DefaultPromise StackOverflowError code is simpler, and ImmediateEventExecutor protects against StackOverflowError.
Motivation:
f2ed3e6ce8 removed the previous mechanism for StackOverflowError because it didn't work in all cases (i.e. ImmediateExecutor). However if a chain of listeners which complete other promises is formed there is still a possibility of a StackOverflowError.
Modifications:
- Use a ThreadLocal to save any DefaultPromises which could not be notified due to the stack being too large. After the first DefaultPromise on the stack completes notification this ThreadLocal should be used to notify any DefaultPromises which have not yet been notified.
Result:
DefaultPromise has StackOverflowError protection that works with all EventExecutor types.
Motivation:
Recycler.recycle(...) should not be used anymore and be replaced by Handle.recycle().
Modifications:
Mark it as deprecated and update usage.
Result:
Correctly document deprecated api.
Motivation:
DomainMappingBuilder should have been named as DomainNameMappingBuilder
because it builds a DomainNameMapping.
Modifications:
- Add DomainNameMappingBuilder that does the same job with
DomainMappingBuilder
- Deprecate DomainMappingBuilder and delegate its logic to
DomainNameMappingBuilder
- Remove the references to the deprecated methods and classes related
with domain name mapping
- Miscellaneous:
- Fix Javadoc of DomainNameMapping.asMap()
- Pre-create the unmodifiable map in DomainNameMapping
Result:
- Consistent naming
- Less use of deprecated API
Motivation:
DomainNameMapping.entries() returns Set<Map.Entry<String, V>>, which
doesn't sound very natural.
Modifications:
Replace entries() with asMap() which returns a Map<String, V> instead.
Result:
- Better looking API
- User can do a lookup because it's a Map
Motivation:
See #4200.
Modifications:
Add DomainNameMapping.entries to allow retrieving the domain match lists.
Result:
People can use DomainNameMapping.entries to retrive the match list in DomainNameMapping.
Motivation:
KObjectHashMap.remove(int index) attempts to move back items which may have been displaced because their spot in the hash based array was taken by another item. If this happens the nextIndex reference in PrimitiveIterator will not be updated. At this time the PrimitiveEntry will reference the incorrect index and may result in a NPE.
Modifications:
- If KObjectHashMap.remove(int index) moves entries back then PrimitiveIterator should adjust its nextIndex
Result:
PrimitiveIterator.remove() updates its internal state to reference the new nextIndex and will not NPE.
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5198
Motivation:
The LateListener logic is prone to infinite loops and relies on being processed in the EventExecutor's thread for synchronization, but this EventExecutor may not be constant. An infinite loop can occur if the EventExecutor's execute method does not introduce a context switch in LateListener.run. The EventExecutor can be changed by classes which inherit from DefaultPromise. For example the DefaultChannelPromise will return w/e EventLoop the channel is registered to, but this EventLoop can change (re-registration).
Modifications:
- Remove the LateListener concept and instead use a single Object to maintain the listeners while still preserving notification order
- Make the result member variable an atomic variable so it can be outside the synchronized(this) blocks
- Cleanup/simplify existing state management code
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/5185
Motivation:
Currently the default log level when running tests is debug. When
running the build on the CI server it might be nice to avoid this debug
level and allow for the level to be configured.
Modifications:
Added a logback-test.xml configuration that has been added to the
common module. This allows for the logLevel to be configured.
The default level will still be debug.
Result:
The log level can now be configured from the command line:
$ mvn test -DlogLevel=error
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:
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:
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:
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:
In AsciiString.trim, last should be `arrayOffset() + length() - 1`. See #4741.
Modifications:
Fix the last value.
Result:
AsciiString.trim works correctly.
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:
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:
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
Motivation:
AbstractFuture currently wraps CancellationException in a ExecutionException. However the interface of Future says that this exception should be directly thrown.
Modifications:
- Throw CancellationException from AbstractFuture.get
Result:
Interface contract for CancellationException is honored in AbstractFuture.
Motivation:
There is a notification ordering issue in DefaultPromise when the lateListener collection is in use. The ordering issue can be observed in situations where a late listener is added to a Future returned from a write operation. It is possible that this future will run after a read operation scheduled on the I/O thread, even if the late listener is added on the I/O thread. This can lead to unexpected ordering where a listener for a write operation which must complete in order for the read operation to happen is notified after the read operation is done.
Modifications:
- If the lateListener collection becomes empty, it should be treated as though it was null when checking if lateListeners can be notified immediatley (instead of executing a task on the executor)
Result:
Ordering is more natural and will not be perceived as being out of order relative to other tasks on the same executor.
Motivation:
HttpHeaders already has specific methods for such popular and simple headers like "Host", but if I need to convert POST raw body to string I need to parse complex ContentType header in my code.
Modifications:
Add getCharset and getCharsetAsString methods to parse charset from Content-Length header.
Result:
Easy to use utility method.
Motivation:
The AsciiString.hashCode() method can be optimized. This method is frequently used while to build the DefaultHeaders data structure.
Modification:
- Add a PlatformDependent hashCode algorithm which utilizes UNSAFE if available
Result:
AsciiString hashCode is faster.
Motivation:
The HTTP/2 RFC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-8.1.2) indicates that header names consist of ASCII characters. We currently use ByteString to represent HTTP/2 header names. The HTTP/2 RFC (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-10.3) also eludes to header values inheriting the same validity characteristics as HTTP/1.x. Using AsciiString for the value type of HTTP/2 headers would allow for re-use of predefined HTTP/1.x values, and make comparisons more intuitive. The Headers<T> interface could also be expanded to allow for easier use of header types which do not have the same Key and Value type.
Motivation:
- Change Headers<T> to Headers<K, V>
- Change Http2Headers<ByteString> to Http2Headers<CharSequence, CharSequence>
- Remove ByteString. Having AsciiString extend ByteString complicates equality comparisons when the hash code algorithm is no longer shared.
Result:
Http2Header types are more representative of the HTTP/2 RFC, and relationship between HTTP/2 header name/values more directly relates to HTTP/1.x header names/values.
Motivation:
When the ImmediateEventExecutor is in use it is possible to get a StackOverFlowException if when a promise completes a new listener is added to that promise.
Modifications:
- Protect against the case where LateListeners.run() smashes the stack.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/4395
Motivation:
When dealing with case insensitive headers it can be useful to have a case insensitive contains method for CharSequence.
Modifications:
- Add containsCaseInsensative to AsciiString
Result:
More expressive utility method for case insensitive CharSequence.
Motivation:
for debugging and metrics reasons its sometimes useful to be able to get details of the the Thread that powers a SingleThreadEventExecutor.
Modifications:
- Expose ThreadProperties
- Add unit test.
Result:
It's now possible to get details of the Thread that powers a SingleThreadEventExecutor.
Motivation:
Sometimes it is useful to disable recycling completely if memory constraints are very tight.
Modifications:
Allow to use -Dio.netty.recycler.maxCapacity=0 to disable recycling completely.
Result:
It's possible to disable recycling now.
Motivation:
A degradation in performance has been observed from the 4.0 branch as documented in https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/3962.
Modifications:
- Simplify Headers class hierarchy.
- Restore the DefaultHeaders to be based upon DefaultHttpHeaders from 4.0.
- Make various other modifications that are causing hot spots.
Result:
Performance is now on par with 4.0.
Motivation:
It would be useful to support the Java `Map` interface in our primitive maps.
Modifications:
Renamed current methods to "pXXX", where p is short for "primitive". Made the template for all primitive maps extend the appropriate Map interface.
Result:
Fixes#3970
Motivation:
There is an error in the ByteString test logic which is resulting in test failures.
Modifications:
- Fix the loop iteration to use the loop iteration variable instead of a fixed index.
Result:
Tests are less buggy.
Motivation:
In the SslHandler we schedule a timeout at which we close the Channel if a timeout was detected during close_notify. Because this can race with notify the flushFuture we can see an IllegalStateException when the Channel is closed.
Modifications:
- Use a trySuccess() and tryFailure(...) to guard against race.
Result:
No more race.
Motivation:
The ByteString class currently assumes the underlying array will be a complete representation of data. This is limiting as it does not allow a subsection of another array to be used. The forces copy operations to take place to compensate for the lack of API support.
Modifications:
- add arrayOffset method to ByteString
- modify all ByteString and AsciiString methods that loop over or index into the underlying array to use this offset
- update all code that uses ByteString.array to ensure it accounts for the offset
- add unit tests to test the implementation respects the offset
Result:
ByteString and AsciiString can represent a sub region of a byte[].
Motivation:
static Package getPackage(Class<?> c) uses synchronized block internally.
Thanks to @jingene for the hint and initial report of the issue.
Modifications:
-Use simple lastIndexOf(...) and substring for a faster implementation
Result:
No more lock condition.
Motivation:
The current implementation does byte by byte comparison, which we have seen
can be a performance bottleneck when the AsciiString is used as the key in
a Map.
Modifications:
Use sun.misc.Unsafe (on supporting platforms) to compare up to eight bytes at a time
and get closer to the performance of String.equals(Object).
Result:
Significant improvement (2x - 6x) in performance over the current implementation.

Motivation:
The usage and code within AsciiString has exceeded the original design scope for this class. Its usage as a binary string is confusing and on the verge of violating interface assumptions in some spots.
Modifications:
- ByteString will be created as a base class to AsciiString. All of the generic byte handling processing will live in ByteString and all the special character encoding will live in AsciiString.
Results:
The AsciiString interface will be clarified. Users of AsciiString can now be clear of the limitations the class imposes while users of the ByteString class don't have to live with those limitations.
Motivation:
Attribute.getAndRemove() will return the value but also remove the AttributeKey itself from the AttributeMap. This may not
what you want as you may want to keep an instance of it and just set it later again. Document the contract so the user know what to expect.
Modifications:
- Make it clear when to use AttributeKey.getAndRemove() / AttributeKey.remove() and when AttributeKey.getAndSet(null) / AttributeKey.set(null).
Result:
Less suprising behaviour.
Motivation:
Currently we have IntObjectMap/HashMap, but it will be useful to support other primitive-based maps.
Modifications:
Moved the code int the current maps to template files and run Groovy code from common/pom.xml to apply the templates.
Result:
Autogeneration of int and char-based hash maps.
Motivation:
At the moment if you want to return a HTTP header containing multiple
values you have to set/add that header once with the values wanted. If
you used set/add with an array/iterable multiple HTTP header fields will
be returned in the response.
Note, that this is indeed a suggestion and additional work and tests
should be added. This is mainly to bring up a discussion.
Modifications:
Added a flag to specify that when multiple values exist for a single
HTTP header then add them as a comma separated string.
In addition added a method to StringUtil to help escape comma separated
value charsequences.
Result:
Allows for responses to be smaller.
Motivation:
We should allow to get a ChannelOption/AttributeKey from a String. This will make it a lot easier to make use of configuration files in applications.
Modifications:
- Add exists(...), newInstance(...) method to ChannelOption and AttributeKey and alter valueOf(...) to return an existing instance for a String or create one.
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Much more flexible usage of ChannelOption and AttributeKey.
Related: #3166
Motivation:
When the recyclable object created at one thread is returned at the
other thread, it is stored in a WeakOrderedQueue.
The objects stored in the WeakOrderedQueue is added back to the stack by
WeakOrderedQueue.transfer() when the owner thread ran out of recyclable
objects.
However, WeakOrderedQueue.transfer() does not have any mechanism that
prevents the stack from growing beyond its maximum capacity.
Modifications:
- Make WeakOrderedQueue.transfer() increase the capacity of the stack
only up to its maximum
- Add tests for the cases where the recyclable object is returned at the
non-owner thread
- Fix a bug where Stack.scavengeSome() does not scavenge the objects
when it's the first time it ran out of objects and thus its cursor is
null.
- Overall clean-up of scavengeSome() and transfer()
Result:
The capacity of Stack never increases beyond its maximum.
Motivation:
Although the new IntObjectMap.values() that returns Collection is
useful, the removed values(Class<V>) that returns an array is also
useful. It's also good for backward compatibility.
Modifications:
- Add IntObjectMap.values(Class<V>) back
- Miscellaneous improvements
- Cache the collection returned by IntObjectHashMap.values()
- Inspector warnings
- Update the IntObjectHashMapTest to test both values()
Result:
- Backward compatibility
- Potential performance improvement of values()
Motivation:
The mentioned commit contains a bug fix and an improvement in
IntObjectHashMap that requires backporting.
Modifications:
Update IntObjectMap, IntObjectHashMap, and IntObjectHashMapTest
Result:
Easier to backport HTTP/2 and other changes in master in the future
Motivation:
NetUtil.isValidIpV6Address() handles the interface name in IPv6 address
incorrectly. For example, it returns false for the following addresses:
- ::1%lo
- ::1%_%_in_name_
Modifications:
- Strip the square brackets before validation for simplicity
- Strip the part after the percent sign completely before validation for
simplicity
- Simplify and reformat NetUtilTest
Result:
- The interface names in IPv6 addresses are handled correctly.
- NetUtilTest is cleaner
Motivation:
ChannelPromiseAggregator and ChannelPromiseNotifiers only allow
consumers to work with Channels as the result type. Generic versions
of these classes allow consumers to aggregate or broadcast the results
of an asynchronous execution with other result types.
Modifications:
Add PromiseAggregator and PromiseNotifier. Add unit tests for both.
Remove code in ChannelPromiseAggregator and ChannelPromiseNotifier and
modify them to extend the new base classes.
Result:
Consumers can now aggregate or broadcast the results of an asynchronous
execution with results types other than Channel.
Motivation:
The java implementations for Inet6Address.getHostName() do not follow the RFC 5952 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5952#section-4) for recommended string representation. This introduces inconsistencies when integrating with other technologies that do follow the RFC.
Modifications:
-NetUtil.java to have another public static method to convert InetAddress to string. Inet4Address will use the java InetAddress.getHostAddress() implementation and there will be new code to implement the RFC 5952 IPV6 string conversion.
-New unit tests to test the new method
Result:
Netty provides a RFC 5952 compliant string conversion method for IPV6 addresses
Motivation
Issue #3004 shows that "=" character was not supported as it should in
the HttpPostRequestDecoder in form-data boundary.
Modifications:
Add 2 methods in StringUtil
- split with maxPart argument: String split with max parts only (to prevent multiple '='
to be source of extra split while not needed)
- substringAfter: String part after delimiter (since first part is not
needed)
Use those methods in HttpPostRequestDecoder.
Change and the HttpPostRequestDecoderTest to check using a boundary
beginning with "=".
Results:
The fix implies more stability and fix the issue.
Motivation:
IntObjectHashMap throws an exception when using negative values for
keys.
Modifications:
Changed hashIndex() to normalize the index if the mod operation returns
a negative number.
Result:
IntObjectHashMap supports negative key values.
Motivation:
This fixes bug #2848 which caused Recycler to become unbounded and cache infinite number of objects with maxCapacity that's not a power of two. This can result in general sluggishness of the application and OutOfMemoryError.
Modifications:
The test for maxCapacity has been moved out of test to check if the buffer has filled. The buffer is now also capped at maxCapacity and cannot grow over it as it jumps from one power of two to the other.
Additionally, a unit test was added to verify maxCapacity is honored even when it's not a power of two.
Result:
With these changes the user is able to use a custom maxCapacity number and not have it ignored. The unit test assures this bug will not repeat itself.
Motivation:
The calculation of the max wait time for HashedWheelTimerTest.testExecutionOnTime() was wrong and so the test sometimes failed.
Modifications:
Fix the max wait time.
Result:
No more test-failures
- 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
Motivations:
In our new version of HWT we used some kind of lazy cancelation of timeouts by put them back in the queue and let them pick up on the next tick. This multiple problems:
- we may corrupt the MpscLinkedQueue if the task is used as tombstone
- this sometimes lead to an uncessary delay especially when someone did executed some "heavy" logic in the TimeTask
Modifications:
Use a Lock per HashedWheelBucket for save and fast removal.
Modifications:
Cancellation of tasks can be done fast and so stuff can be GC'ed and no more infinite-loop possible
Motivation:
Recycler is used in many places to reduce GC-pressure but is still not as fast as possible because of the internal datastructures used.
Modification:
- Rewrite Recycler to use a WeakOrderQueue which makes minimal guaranteer about order and visibility for max performance.
- Recycling of the same object multiple times without acquire it will fail.
- Introduce a RecyclableMpscLinkedQueueNode which can be used for MpscLinkedQueueNodes that use Recycler
These changes are based on @belliottsmith 's work that was part of #2504.
Result:
Huge increase in performance.

Motivation:
Maps with integer keys are used in several places (HTTP/2 code, for
example). To reduce the memory footprint of these structures, we need a
specialized map class that uses ints as keys.
Modifications:
Added IntObjectHashMap, which is uses open addressing and double hashing
for collision resolution.
Result:
A new int-based map class that can be shared across Netty.
Motivation:
When Netty runs in a managed environment such as web application server,
Netty needs to provide an explicit way to remove the thread-local
variables it created to prevent class loader leaks.
FastThreadLocal uses different execution paths for storing a
thread-local variable depending on the type of the current thread.
It increases the complexity of thread-local removal.
Modifications:
- Moved FastThreadLocal and FastThreadLocalThread out of the internal
package so that a user can use it.
- FastThreadLocal now keeps track of all thread local variables it has
initialized, and calling FastThreadLocal.removeAll() will remove all
thread-local variables of the caller thread.
- Added FastThreadLocal.size() for diagnostics and tests
- Introduce InternalThreadLocalMap which is a mixture of hard-wired
thread local variable fields and extensible indexed variables
- FastThreadLocal now uses InternalThreadLocalMap to implement a
thread-local variable.
- Added ThreadDeathWatcher.unwatch() so that PooledByteBufAllocator
tells it to stop watching when its thread-local cache has been freed
by FastThreadLocal.removeAll().
- Added FastThreadLocalTest to ensure that removeAll() works
- Added microbenchmark for FastThreadLocal and JDK ThreadLocal
- Upgraded to JMH 0.9
Result:
- A user can remove all thread-local variables Netty created, as long as
he or she did not exit from the current thread. (Note that there's no
way to remove a thread-local variable from outside of the thread.)
- FastThreadLocal exposes more useful operations such as isSet() because
we always implement a thread local variable via InternalThreadLocalMap
instead of falling back to JDK ThreadLocal.
- FastThreadLocalBenchmark shows that this change improves the
performance of FastThreadLocal even more.
Motivation:
When running Netty on a container environment, the container will often
complain about the lingering threads such as the worker threads of
ThreadDeathWatcher and GlobalEventExecutor. We should provide an
operation that allows a use to wait until such threads are terminated.
Modifications:
- Add awaitInactivity()
- (misc) Fix typo in GlobalEventExecutorTest
- (misc) Port ThreadDeathWatch's CAS-based thread life cycle management
to GlobalEventExecutor
Result:
- Fixes#2084
- Less overhead on task submission of GlobalEventExecutor
Motivation:
PooledByteBufAllocator's thread local cache and
ReferenceCountUtil.releaseLater() are in need of a way to run an
arbitrary logic when a certain thread is terminated.
Modifications:
- Add ThreadDeathWatcher, which spawns a low-priority daemon thread
that watches a list of threads periodically (every second) and
invokes the specified tasks when the associated threads are not alive
anymore
- Start-stop logic based on CAS operation proposed by @tea-dragon
- Add debug-level log messages to see if ThreadDeathWatcher works
Result:
- Fixes#2519 because we don't use GlobalEventExecutor anymore
- Cleaner code
Motivation:
The current DefaultAttributeMap cause an infinite-loop when the user removes an attribute and create the same attribute again. This regression was introduced by c3bd7a8ff1.
Modification:
Correctly break out loop
Result:
No infinite-loop anymore.
- Proposed fix for #1824
UniqueName and its subtypes do not allow getting the previously registered instance. For example, let's assume that a user is running his/her application in an OSGi container with Netty bundles and his server bundle. Whenever the server bundle is reloaded, the server will try to create a new AttributeKey instance with the same name. However, Netty bundles were not reloaded at all, so AttributeKey will complain that the name is taken already (by the previously loaded bundle.)
To fix this problem:
- Replaced UniqueName with Constant, AbstractConstant, and ConstantPool. Better name and better design.
- Sctp/Udt/RxtxChannelOption is not a ChannelOption anymore. They are just constant providers and ChannelOption is final now. It's because caching anything that's from outside of netty-transport will lead to ClassCastException on reload, because ChannelOption's constant pool will keep all option objects for reuse.
- Signal implements Constant because we can't ensure its uniqueness anymore by relying on the exception raised by UniqueName's constructor.
.. which occurs when a user adds a listener from different threads after the promise is done and the notifications for the listeners, that were added before the promise is done, is in progress. For instance:
Thread-1: p.addListener(listenerA);
Thread-1: p.setSuccess(null);
Thread-2: p.addListener(listenerB);
Thread-2: p.executor.execute(taskNotifyListenerB);
Thread-1: p.executor.execute(taskNotifyListenerA);
taskNotifyListenerB should not really notify listenerB until taskNotifyListenerA is finished.
To fix this issue:
- Change the semantic of (listeners == null) to determine if the early
listeners [1] were notified
- If a late listener is added before the early listeners are notified,
the notification of the late listener is deferred until the early
listeners are notified (i.e. until listeners == null)
- The late listeners with deferred notifications are stored in a lazily
instantiated queue to preserve ordering, and then are notified once
the early listeners are notified.
[1] the listeners that were added before the promise is done
[2] the listeners that were added after the promise is done
- Borrow SLF4J API which is the best of the best
- InternalLoggerFactory now automatically detects the logging framework
using static class loading. It tries SLF4J, Log4J, and then falls back
to java.util.logging.
- Remove OsgiLogger because it is very likely that OSGi container
already provides a bridge for existing logging frameworks
- Remove JBossLogger because the latest JBossLogger implementation seems
to implement SLF4J binding
- Upgrade SLF4J to 1.7.2
- Remove tests for the untestable logging frameworks
- Remove TestAny
use single static initialization of available metrics monitor registries
* This changes the original implementation to work in a similar way to
how slf4j selects and loads an implementation.
* Uses a single static instance so intialization is done only once.
* Doesn't throw IllegalStateException if multiple implementations are
found on the classpath. It instead selects and uses the first
implementation returned by iterator()
* Class left as an iterable to keep the API the same
add yammer metrics to examples to allow them to publish metrics
publish the number of threads used in an EventLoopGroup see issue #718
* seems like the better place to put this because it sets the default
thread count if the MultithreadEventLoopGroup uses super(0,...)
* It also happens to be the common parent class amongst all the
MultiThreadedEventLoopGroup implementations
* Count is reported for
io.netty.channel.{*,.local,.socket.aio,.socket.nio}

count # of channels registered in single threaded event loop

First cut at implementing a generic abstraction layer for pluggable
metrics providers. This first cut is closely modeled after Yammer
Metrics. It remains to be seen if it is indeed flexibel enough to
support other providers.
Provide a default implementation of this new abstraction layer
based on Yammer Metrics.
Support pluggable Monitoring Providers using Java 6's ServiceLoader.
Use this new abstraction layer to provide stats on (a) number of
Timeouts executed per second and (b) distribution of absolute
deviation between scheduled and actual Timeout execution time in
HashedWheelTimer.
* Interface ValueDistributionMonitor, a monitor for histograms.
* Interface EventRateMonitor, a monitor for measuring the rate per time
unit of specific events.
* Interface ValueMonitor, a monitor for tracking an arbitrary datum's
current value
* Interface CounterMonitor, a monitor for incrementing/decrementing a
long value
* Interface MonitorRegistry, a registry for monitors that serves as the
interface between Netty and concrete metrics providers as e.g. Yammer
Metrics.
* Interface MonitorRegistryFactory, to be implemented by metrics
providers.
* Document how to use Netty's new monitoring support in javadocs for
package io.netty.monitor.
This tests the following classes more:
1: InternalLoggerFactoryTest
Tests InternalLoggerFactory.getInstance(Class)
2: UniqueName
Paired with #543, this achieves 100% code coverage with tests

- SingleThreadEventLoop now implements ScheduledExecutorService
- Scheduled tasks are automatically fetched into taskQueue by
pollTask() and takeTask()
- Removed MapBackedSet because Java 6 provides it
Split the project into the following modules:
* common
* buffer
* codec
* codec-http
* transport
* transport-*
* handler
* example
* testsuite (integration tests that involve 2+ modules)
* all (does nothing yet, but will make it generate netty.jar)
This commit also fixes the compilation errors with transport-sctp on
non-Linux systems. It will at least compile without complaints.
