Motivation: Alignment handling was broken, and basically turned into a fixed offset into each allocation address regardless of its initial value, instead of ensuring that the allocated address is either aligned or bumped to the nearest alignment offset. The brokenness of the alignment handling extended so far, that overlapping ByteBuf instances could even be created, as was seen in #11101. Modification: Instead of fixing the per-allocation pointer bump, we now ensure that 1) the minimum page size is a whole multiple of the alignment, and 2) the reference memory for each chunk is bumped to the nearest aligned address, and finally 3) ensured that the reservations are whole multiples of the alignment, thus ensuring that the next allocation automatically occurs from an aligned address. Incidentally, (3) above comes for free because the reservations are in whole pages, and in (1) we ensured that pages are sized in whole multiples of the alignment. In order to ensure that the memory for a chunk is aligned, we introduce some new PlatformDependent infrastructure. The PlatformDependent.alignDirectBuffer will produce a slice of the given buffer, and the slice will have an address that is aligned. This method is plainly available on ByteBuffer in Java 9 onwards, but for pre-9 we have to use Unsafe, which means it can fail and might not be available on all platforms. Attempts to create a PooledByteBufAllocator that uses alignment, when this is not supported, will throw an exception. Luckily, I think use of aligned allocations are rare. Result: Aligned pooled byte bufs now work correctly, and never have any overlap. Fixes #11101 |

Netty Project
Netty is an asynchronous event-driven network application framework for rapid development of maintainable high performance protocol servers & clients.

How to build
For the detailed information about building and developing Netty, please visit the developer guide. This page only gives very basic information.
You require the following to build Netty:
- Latest stable OpenJDK 8
- Latest stable Apache Maven
- If you are on Linux, you need additional development packages installed on your system, because you'll build the native transport.
Note that this is build-time requirement. JDK 5 (for 3.x) or 6 (for 4.0+ / 4.1+) is enough to run your Netty-based application.
Branches to look
Development of all versions takes place in each branch whose name is identical to <majorVersion>.<minorVersion>
. For example, the development of 3.9 and 4.1 resides in the branch '3.9' and the branch '4.1' respectively.
Usage with JDK 9+
Netty can be used in modular JDK9+ applications as a collection of automatic modules. The module names follow the reverse-DNS style, and are derived from subproject names rather than root packages due to historical reasons. They are listed below:
io.netty.all
io.netty.buffer
io.netty.codec
io.netty.codec.dns
io.netty.codec.haproxy
io.netty.codec.http
io.netty.codec.http2
io.netty.codec.memcache
io.netty.codec.mqtt
io.netty.codec.redis
io.netty.codec.smtp
io.netty.codec.socks
io.netty.codec.stomp
io.netty.codec.xml
io.netty.common
io.netty.handler
io.netty.handler.proxy
io.netty.resolver
io.netty.resolver.dns
io.netty.transport
io.netty.transport.epoll

Automatic modules do not provide any means to declare dependencies, so you need to list each used module separately
in your module-info
file.
