In some environments DNS is not available and is performed by the
CONNECT proxy. Nothing "special" should need to be done for these
environments, but the previous support took shortcuts which knowingly
would not support such environments.
This change should fix both OkHttp and Netty. Netty's
Bootstrap.connect() resolved the name immediately whereas using
ChannelPipeline.connect() waits until the address reaches the end of the
pipeline. Netty uses NetUtil.toSocketAddressString() to get the name of
the address, which uses InetSocketAddress.getHostString() when
available.
OkHttp is still using InetSocketAddress.getHostName() which may issue
reverse DNS lookups. However, if the reverse DNS lookup fails, it should
convert the IP to a textual string like getHostString(). So as long as
the reverse DNS maps to the same machine as the IP, there should only be
performance concerns, not correctness issues. Since the DnsNameResolver
is creating unresolved addresses, the reverse DNS lookups shouldn't
occur in the common case.
This is a squash and modification of master commits that also includes:
netty,okhttp: Fix CONNECT and its error handling
This commit has been modified to reduce its size to substantially reduce
risk of it breaking Netty error handling. But that also means proxy
error handling just provides a useless "there was an error" sort of
message.
There is no Java API to enable the proxy support. Instead, you must set
the GRPC_PROXY_EXP environment variable which should be set to a
host:port string. The environment variable is temporary; it will not
exist in future releases. It exists to provide support without needing
explicit code to enable the future, while at the same time not risking
enabling it for existing users.
add `getAttributes()` to `ClientStream` and `ClientCall` to be able to share clientTransport
information such as socket TOS with higher lever API's, once the RPC picks up an active transport that is ready to use.
This patch introduces an additional ALPN protocol, grpc-exp, intended to
take preference to h2 and indicate to the server that the connection
contains only gRPC traffic. This allows servers and intermediate boxes
to distinguish gRPC from other HTTP/2 traffic.
The choice of grpc-exp as a protocol identifier indicates that this
scheme is currently experimental and should not be relied upon. The
protocol is not in the IANA TLS registry.
This is the grpc-java equivalent of
8cdf17a620.
Due to the opacity of ALPN and TLS negotiation at application level, the
tests are only there to validate that the lists we're feeding into the
negotiation process have the desired ordering properties:
* If grpc-exp is present, h2 is as well.
* grpc-exp is preferenced over h2.
Not to expose dependency of `io.netty.handler.ssl.SslContext` when implementing `TransportCreationParamsFilter`

now that setListener is called prior to
`JumpToApplicationThreadServerStreamListener` being completely ready to
use. We should not call `AbstractStream2#onStreamAllocated()` inside
`setListener()` anymore, but call it after `ServerImpl#streamCreated()`
is completed.
Resolves#1936
Two bugs fixed:
- NPE in `ServerImpl#streamCreated()` when stream listener not set before
stream closed
- It is possible that `internalCancel()` is called during
`InProcessClientStream#start()` due to early server `onComplete()` or server `onError()`,
in this case no need to enlist `streams`, otherwise the channel can not be shutdown by `shutdown()`.
We only want to use the HTTP code for errors, when the response is not
grpc. grpc status codes may be mapped to HTTP codes in the future, and
we don't want to break when that happens. We also don't want to ever
accidentally use Status.OK without receiving it from the server, even
for HTTP 200.
Binary header values are printed in their base64 encoded form.
The GrpcHttpOutboundHeaders, as mentioned in the issue, don't seem to be affected by this regression. The toString() method seems fine.
Highlights
==========
StatsTraceContext
-----------------
The bridge between gRPC library and Census. It keeps track of the total
payload sizes and the elapsed time of a Call. The rest of the gRPC code
doesn't invoke Census directly.
Context propagation
-------------------
StatsTraceContext carries CensusContext (and the upcoming TraceContext)
and is attached to the gRPC Context.
1. StatsTraceContext is created by ManagedChannelImpl, by calling
createClientContext(), which inherits the current CensusContext if available.
2. ManagedChannelImpl passes StatsTraceContext to ClientCallImpl, then
to the stream, then to the framer and deframer explicitly.
3. ClientCallImpl propagates the CensusContext to the headers.
1. ServerImpl creates a StatsTraceContext by implementing a new callback
method StatsTraceContext methodDetermined(MethodDescriptor, Metadata) on
ServerTransportListener.
2. NettyServerHandler calls methodDetermined() before creating the
stream, and passes the StatsTraceContext to the stream.
3. When ServerImpl creates the gRPC Context for the new ServerCall, it
calls the new method statsTraceContext() on ServerStream and puts the
StatsTraceContext in the Context.
Metrics recording
-----------------
1. Client-side start time: when ClientCallImpl is created
2. Server-side start time: when methodDetermined() is called
3. Server-side end time: in ServerStreamListener.closed(), but before
calling onComplete() or onCancel() on ServerCall.Listener.
4. Client-side end time: in ClientStreamListener.closed(), but before
calling onClonse() on ClientCall.Listener
Message sizes are recorded in MessageFramer and MessageDeframer. Both
the uncompressed and wire (possibly compressed) payload sizes are
counted.
TODOs
=====
The CensusContext created from headers on the server side should be
attached to the gRPC Context for the call. It's not done at this moment
because Census lacks the proper API to do it. It only affects tracing
and resource accounting, but doesn't affect stats functionality
Our API allows pings to be send even after the transport has been shutdown. We currently
don't handle the case, where the Netty channel has been closed but the NettyClientHandler
has not yet been removed from the pipeline, correctly. That is, we need to query the shutdown
status whenever we receive a ClosedChannelException.
Also, some cleanup.
The DefaultHttp2Headers class is a general-purpose Http2Headers implementation
and provides much more functionality than we need in gRPC. In gRPC, when reading
headers off the wire, we only inspect a handful of them, before converting to
Metadata.
This commit introduces a Http2Headers implementation that aims for insertion
efficiency, a low memory footprint and fast conversion to Metadata.
- Header names and values are stored in plain byte[].
- Insertion is O(1), while lookup is now O(n).
- Binary header values are base64 decoded as they are inserted.
- The byte[][] returned by namesAndValues() can directly be used to construct
a new Metadata object.
- For HTTP/2 request headers, the pseudo headers are no longer carried over to
Metadata.
A microbenchmark aiming to replicate the usage of Http2Headers in NettyClientHandler
and NettyServerHandler shows decent throughput gains when compared to DefaultHttp2Headers.

Additionally, the memory footprint is reduced by more than 50%!
gRPC Request Headers: 864 bytes
Netty Request Headers: 1728 bytes
gRPC Response Headers: 216 bytes
Netty Response Headers: 528 bytes
Furthermore, this change does most of the gRPC groundwork necessary to be able
to cache higher ordered objects in HPACK's dynamic table, as discussed in [1].

Metadata.removeAll creates an iterator for looking through removed
values even if the call doens't use it. This change adds a similar
method which doesn't create garbage.
This change makes it easier in the future to alter the internals
of Metadata where it may be expensive to return removed values.
