- Fixes#831
This commit ensures the following events are never triggered as a direct
invocation if they are triggered via ChannelPipeline.fire*():
- channelInactive
- channelUnregistered
- exceptionCaught
This commit also fixes the following issues surfaced by this fix:
- Embedded channel implementations run scheduled tasks too early
- SpdySessionHandlerTest tries to generate inbound data even after the
channel is closed.
- AioSocketChannel enters into an infinite loop on I/O error.
This pull request introduces the new default ByteBufAllocator implementation based on jemalloc, with a some differences:
* Minimum possible buffer capacity is 16 (jemalloc: 2)
* Uses binary heap with random branching (jemalloc: red-black tree)
* No thread-local cache yet (jemalloc has thread-local cache)
* Default page size is 8 KiB (jemalloc: 4 KiB)
* Default chunk size is 16 MiB (jemalloc: 2 MiB)
* Cannot allocate a buffer bigger than the chunk size (jemalloc: possible) because we don't have control over memory layout in Java. A user can work around this issue by creating a composite buffer, but it's not always a feasible option. Although 16 MiB is a pretty big default, a user's handler might need to deal with the bounded buffers when the user wants to deal with a large message.
Also, to ensure the new allocator performs good enough, I wrote a microbenchmark for it and made it a dedicated Maven module. It uses Google's Caliper framework to run and publish the test result (example)
Miscellaneous changes:
* Made some ByteBuf implementations public so that those who implements a new allocator can make use of them.
* Added ByteBufAllocator.compositeBuffer() and its variants.
* ByteBufAllocator.ioBuffer() creates a buffer with 0 capacity.
- Add ChannelOption.ALLOW_HALF_CLOSURE
- If true, ChannelInputShutdownEvent is fired via userEventTriggered()
when the remote peer shuts down its output, and the connection is
not closed until a user calls close() explicitly.
- If false, the connection is closed immediately as it did before.
- Add SocketChannel.isInputShutdown()
- Add & improve test cases related with half-closed sockets
