The error occurs when name resolution completes after the channel is
shut down. What ManagedChannelImpl doing right now is violating the
TransportManager interface, because TransportManager.getTransport()
should never return null.
We've seen an NPE as a side-effect of a failure in protocol negotiation:
Oct 27, 2015 9:27:09 PM io.grpc.transport.netty.ProtocolNegotiators$AbstractBufferingHandler fail
SEVERE: Transport failed during protocol negotiation
java.lang.NullPointerException
at io.grpc.transport.netty.NettyClientHandler$2.visit(NettyClientHandler.java:218)
- Channel builders decide the default port based on whether TLS is used.
- Channel builders populate the default port via an Attributes object
passed to NameResolver.Factory#newNameResolver
Although it is unlikely the awaits return false, it would be useful
information to know about the failure if they did.
This should provide more clues in case the test flakes again (#1146)
Without the attributes, fc loses its mind a bit when comparing the
codegen output against the golden; the golden would have DOS newlines
(assuming default git configuration) and the generated code would have
Unix newlines.
The jenkins-pre script just reduces the amount of code is backed into
the jenkins project.
This fixes a problem where gradle would try to use VC's amd64_x86 cl
(without the correct environment) and fail to compile with return code
-1073741515 (STATU_DLL_NOT_FOUND) because of missing mspdb120.dll.
- NameResolverRegistry contains all the official NameResolvers. Users
can also add custom NameResolvers to it. It looks up NameResolver by
try-and-fail. It is the default NameResolver.Factory for builders.
DnsNameResolver.
- Pass target as Strings instead of URIs from the channel builder to
ManagedChannelImpl. A target string is not necessarily a valid URI, in
which case ManagedChannelImpl will add "dns:///" to the beginning of
the target and use it as URI.
- DnsNameResolver will require scheme "dns" to be present. It no longer
allows scheme-absent URIs.
Otherwise, when DelayedStream is created it ends up calling
clientTransportProvider a second time. However, we already have a
transportFuture available, we should just use it instead.
transportFailsOnStart was still flaky. By looking at history, it became
obvious that transportFailsOnStart was created to test two cases we no
longer support: the transport throwing an exception during start and the
transport calling listener.transportShutdown during start. The part of
the test checking throwing an exception was removed earlier.
The scheduling on another thread led to a race where sometimes the
future wasn't completed by the time isDone() was checked in
ClientCallImpl causing the usage of DelayedStream, which really messed
up what the test was trying to do.
- Add NameResolver and LoadBalancer interfaces.
- ManagedChannelImpl now uses NameResolver and LoadBalancer for
transport selection, which may return transports to multiple
addresses.
- Transports are still owned by ManagedChannelImpl, which implements
TransportManager interface that is provided to LoadBalancer, so that
LoadBalancer doesn't worry about Transport lifecycles.
- Channel builders can be created by forTarget() that accepts the fully
qualified target name, which is an URI. (TODO) it's not tested.
- The old address-based construction pattern is supported by using
AbstractManagedChannelImplBuilder.DirectAddressNameResolver.
- (TODO) DnsNameResolver and SimpleLoadBalancer are currently
incomplete. They merely work for the single-address scenario.
This reduces the number of classes defined, which reduces memory usage.
It also reduces the number of methods defined, which is important
because of the dex limit.
This should have virtually zero performance degration because the
contiguous switch uses tableswitch bytecode.
ARG_IN_ and ARG_OUT_ are prefixes as otherwise there could be a name
collision with an oddly-named method. Since the other fields are
prefixed with METHOD_ they can't collide.
JRE 8u60 is still slow, but could be used by someone that doesn't care
about performance now. Added more details about relative performance so
that the gains of OpenSSL are clear.
Added detail about version independence, because JRE 8u60 requires an
update to Jetty ALPN, so it is also applicable to this change.
