Update the release.yml file with the latest label changes

FranzBusch and others added 30 commits March 28, 2022 09:59
### Motivation:

SPM has built in functionality to check the API of modules against a target git treeish. We can use this to simplify our `check_no_api_breakages.sh` script. Closes apple/swift-nio#1239

### Modifications:

This PR, exchanges the direct calls to Swift's API checker with the new SPM `diagnose-api-breaking-changes` tool. This allows us to get rid of the manual module parsing, build invocations and result comparisons.

### Result:

We are now using SPMs `diagnose-api-breaking-changes` to check for breaking changes.
Motivation

The RequestBag intermediates between two different threads. This means
it can get requests that were reasonable when they were made but have
been superseded with newer information since then. These generally have
to be tolerated.

Unfortunately if we received a request to resume the request body stream
_after_ the need for that stream has been invalidated, we could hit a
crash. That's unnecessary, and we should tolerate it better.

Modifications

Tolerated receiving requests to resume body streaming in the finished
state.

Result

Fewer crashes
Fixes #576
Same fix for HTTP/1 that landed for HTTP/2 in #558.

### Motivation

`HTTP1ClientChannelHandler` currently does not tolerate immediate write errors.

### Changes

Make `HTTP1ClientChannelHandler` resilient to failing writes.

### Result

Less crashes in AHC HTTP/1.
### Motivation

Currently, we don’t consume the response body of redirect responses. Because of this requests, that receive a redirect response with response body, may hang indefinitely.

### Changes

- Consume redirect response body if less than 3kb
- Cancel redirect response if larger than 3kb

### Result

Redirect responses are consumed. Fixes #574
As outlined in a [Swift forums post in November ’21](https://forums.swift.org/t/swiftnio-swift-version-support/53232), SwiftNIO will only support the latest non-patch Swift release and the 2 immediately prior non-patch versions.

- drop support for Swift 5.2 and 5.3. 
- update CI for Swift 5.4 to run on bionic instead of focal to ensure that we still test bionic.
This adds a shortDescription property to HTTPClientError which provides a short
description of the error without associated values.
### Motivation

Today `didSendRequestPart` is called after a request body part has been passed to the executor. However, this does not mean that the write hit the socket. Users may depend on this behavior to implement back-pressure. For this reason, we should only call this `didSendRequestPart` once the write was successful.

### Modification

Pass a promise to the actual channel write and only call the delegate once that promise succeeds.

### Result

The delegate method `didSendRequestPart` is only called after the write was successful. Fixes #565.

Motivation

Currently error reporting with NIO Transport Services is often sub-par.
This occurs because the Network.framework connections may enter the
waiting state until the network connectivity state changes. We were not
watching for the user event that contains the error in that state, so if
we timed out in that state we'd just give a generic timeout error,
instead of telling the user anything more detailed.

Additionally, several of our tests assume that failure will be fast, but
in NIO Transport Services we will enter that .waiting state. This is
reasonable, as changed network connections may make a connection that
was not succeeding suddenly viable. However, it's inconvenient for
testing, where we're mostly interested in confirming that the error path
works as expected.

Modifications

- Add an observer of the WaitingForConnectivity event that records it
  into our state machine for later reporting.
- Add support for disabling waiting for connectivity for testing
  purposes.
- Add annotations to several tests to stop them waiting for
  connectivity.

Results

Faster tests, better coverage, better errors for our users.

Motivation

It's totally acceptable for a HTTP server to respond before a request
upload has completed. If the response is an error, we should abort the
upload (and we do), but if the response is a 2xx we should probably just
finish the upload.

In this case it turns out we'll actually hit a crash when we attempt to
deliver an empty body message. his is no good!

Once that bug was fixed it revealed another: while we'd attempted to
account for this case, we hadn't tested it, and so it turns out that
shutdown would hang. As a result, I've also cleaned that up.

Modifications

- Tolerate empty circular buffers of bytes when streaming an upload.
- Notify the connection that the task is complete when we're done.

Result

Fewer crashes and hangs.
…testConnectTimeout()` (#592)

* Use a local TCP server that doesn’t accept connections on macOS for `testConnectTimeout()`

* fix linting
Motivation

In some cases, the last thing that happens in a request-response pair is
that we send our HTTP/1.1 .end. This can happen when the peer has sent
an early response, before we have finished uploading our body. When it
does, we need to be diligent about cleaning up our connection state.

Unfortunately, there was an edge in the HTTP1ConnectionStateMachine that
processed .succeedRequest but that did not transition the state into
either .idle or .closing. That was an error, and needed to be fixed.

Modifications

Transition to .idle when we're returning
.succeedRequest(.sendRequestEnd).

Result

Fewer crashes
Motivation

When users stream their bodies they may still want to send Connection:
close headers and terminate the connection early. This should work
properly.

Unfortunately it became clear that we didn't correctly pass the
information that the connection needed to be closed. As a result, we'd
inappropriately re-use the connection, potentially causing unnecessary
HTTP errors.

Modifications

Signal whether the connection needs to be closed when the final
connection action is to send .end.

Results

We behave better with streaming uploads.
Motivation

If we receive an early HTTP response, the last action on a HTTP/1.1
connection is to send the .end message. While we had an error handling
path in the code, it wasn't tested, and when executed it would end up
leaking the connection by failing to close it _or_ return it to the
pool.

This patch fixes the issue by appropriately terminating the connection
and adding a test.

Modifications

Add a test
Terminate the connection if sendEnd fails

Result

Fewer connection leaks
we may recieve a posix `ECONNREFUSED` too

Motivation

Warnings aren't great, and NIOAtomic is deprecated.

Modifications

Replace the last use of NIOAtomic with ManagedAtomic.

Result

Fewer warnings
Fixes #606
Motivation

When receiving certain patterns of response body parts, we can end up
recursing almost indefinitely to deliver them to the application. This
can lead to crashes, so we might politely describe it as "sub-optimal".

Modifications

Keep track of our stack depth and avoid creating too many stack frames.
Added some unit tests.

Result

We no longer explode when handling bodies with lots of tiny parts.

Co-authored-by: David Nadoba <[email protected]>
Motivation

Documentation is nice, and we can help support users by providing useful
clear docs.

Modifications

Add Docc to 5.6 and later builds
Make sure symbol references work
Add overview docs

Result

Nice rendering docs
Motivation

We should apply the connect timeout to the complete set of connection
attempts, rather than the request deadline. This allows users
fine-grained control over how long we attempt to connect for. This is
also the behaviour of our old-school interface.

Modifications

- Changed the connect deadline calculation for async/await to match that
  of the future-based code.
- Added a connect timeout test.

Result

Connect timeouts are properly handled
* Tollerate more data after request body is cancelled

* wait is not needed if we shutdown the server first

* Remove test that depends on external resources

* Remove unused conformance to Equatable

* SwiftFormat

* run generate_linux_tests.rb

* Increase timeout for CI

`HTTPClient.Response` is trivially `Sendable`, let's mark it `Sendable`.
…t` to `Int.max` (#763)

### Motivation:

When a user wishes to make the connection pool create as many concurrent
connections as possible, a natural way to achieve this would be to set
`.max` to the `concurrentHTTP1ConnectionsPerHostSoftLimit` property.

```swift
HTTPClient.Configuration().connectionPool = .init(
    idleTimeout: .hours(1),
    concurrentHTTP1ConnectionsPerHostSoftLimit: .max
)
```

The `concurrentHTTP1ConnectionsPerHostSoftLimit` property is of type
`Int`. Setting it to `Int.max` leads to `Int.max` being passed as an
argument to `Array`s `.reserveCapacity(_:)` method, causing an OOM
issue.

Addresses Github Issue #751 

### Modifications:

Capped the argument to `self.connections.reserveCapacity(_:)` to 1024 in
`HTTPConnectionPool.HTTP1Connections`

### Result:

Users can now set the `concurrentHTTP1ConnectionsPerHostSoftLimit`
property to `.max` without causing an OOM issue.
Since most of the servers now conform to http2, the change here updates
the behaviour of assuming the connection to be http2 and not http1 by
default. It will migrate to http1 if the server only supports http1.
One can set the `httpVersion` in `ClientConfiguration` to `.http1Only`
which will start with http1 instead of http2.

Additional Changes:

- Fixed an off by one error in the maximum additional general purpose
connection check
- Updated tests

Motivation:

Would like to use github to autogenerate release notes.

Modifications:

Bring over configuration consistent with NIO and other popular repos.

Result:

Once labels are synchronised release notes can be generated by github
`NIOTooManyBytesError` now requires the `maxBytes` in its initializer.
…he http request (#768)

### Motivation

If the channel's writability changed to false just before we finished a
request, we currently run into a precondition.

### Changes

- Remove the precondition and handle the case appropiatly

### Result

A crash less.
The Darwin module is slowly being split up, and as it gets further
along, it will stop importing some of the split-out modules like the one
for locale.h that provides newlocale() and other locale API. However,
there's a wrinkle that on platforms with xlocale, it's xlocale.h that
provides most of the POSIX locale.h functions and not locale.h, so
prefer the xlocale module when available.
This PR adds .git extensions to the Swift Package Manager dependencies
that didn't include them. For me, this resolves issues that I have had
with an error produced by Xcode when updating to the latest package
versions if I'm editing the project which depends on AHC in an Xcode
Workspace.

<img width="389" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/24c3a5de-b555-4da8-a2fa-a4673fecff44">

The complete error is: `github.com:
https://github.com/apple/swift-algorithms: The repository could not be
found. Make sure a valid repository exists at the specified location and
try again.`

Based on conversations in the Vapor Discord server, adding these
extensions "shouldn't" make a difference to the dependency resolution
done by swift package manager, however adding them resolves the error. 🤷

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a TCP extension allowing to enhance the
reliability of the network by using multiple interfaces. This extension
provides a seamless handover between interfaces in case of deterioration
of the connection on the original one. In the context of iOS and Mac OS
X, it could be really interesting to leverage the capabilities of MPTCP
as they could benefit from their multiple interfaces (ethernet + Wi-fi
for Mac OS X, Wi-fi + cellular for iOS).

This contribution introduces patches to HTTPClient.Configuration and
establishment of the Bootstraps. A supplementary field "enableMultipath"
was added to the configuration, allowing to request the use of MPTCP.
This flag is then used when creating the channels to configure the
client.

Note that in the future, it might also be potentially interesting to
offer more precise configuration options for MPTCP on MacOS, as the
Network framework allows also to select a type of service, instead of
just offering the option to create MPTCP connections. Currently, when
enabling MPTCP, only the Handover mode is used.

…Handler (#772)

### Motivation:

A performance test executing 100,000 sequential requests against a
simple
[`NIOHTTP1Server`](https://github.com/apple/swift-nio/blob/main/Sources/NIOHTTP1Server/README.md)
revealed that 7% of total run time is spent in the setter of the
`request` property in `HTTP1ClientChannelHandler` (GitHub Issue #754).

The poor performance comes from [processing the string interpolation
`"\(self.eventLoop)"`](https://github.com/swift-server/async-http-client/blob/6df8e1c17e68f0f93de2443b8c8cafca9ddcc89a/Sources/AsyncHTTPClient/ConnectionPool/HTTP1/HTTP1ClientChannelHandler.swift#L39C17-L39C75)
which under the hood calls a computed property.

This problem can entirely be avoided by storing `eventLoop.description`
when initializing `HTTP1ClientChannelHandler`, and using that stored
value in `request`'s setter, rather than computing the property each
time.

### Modifications:

- Created a new property `let eventLoopDescription:
Logger.MetadataValue` in `HTTP1ClientChannelHandler` that stores the
description of the `eventLoop` argument that is passed into the
initializer.
- Replaced the string interpolation `"\(self.eventLoop)"` in `request`'s
setter with `self.eventLoopDescription`.

### Result:

`HTTP1ClientChannelHandler.eventLoop`'s `description` property is cached
upon initialization rather than being computed each time in the
`request` property's setter.

On modularised platforms, #771 broke things because it changed from
importing `Musl` or `Glibc` to importing just `locale_h`. The latter
understandably doesn't define `errno` or `EOVERFLOW`, so we get a build
failure.

Fixes #773.
`Foundation.URL` has various behavior changes in Swift 6 to better match
RFC 3986 which impact AHC.

In particular it now no longer strips the square brackets in IPv6 hosts
which are not tolerated by `inet_pton` so these must be manually
stripped.

Motivation:

As an HTTP library, async-http-client should have authentication
support.

Modifications:

This adds a `setBasicAuth()` method to both HTTPClientRequest and
`HTTPClient.Request` and their related unit tests.

Result:

Library users will be able to leverage this method to use basic
authentication on their requests without implementing this in their own
projects.

Note: I also ran the tests (`swift test`) with the
`docker.io/library/swift:6.0-focal` and
`docker.io/library/swift:5.10.1-focal` to ensure linux compatibility.

Migrate CI to use GitHub Actions.

### Motivation:

To migrate to GitHub actions and centralised infrastructure.

### Modifications:

Changes of note:
* Adopt swift-format using rules from SwiftNIO.
* Remove scripts and docker files which are no longer needed.
* Disabled warnings-as-errors on Swift 6.0 CI pipelines for now.

### Result:

Feature parity with old CI.
remove contributors script
remove unused Swift 6 language mode workflow
fixes #784 

`writeChunks` had 3 bugs:
1. An actually wrong `UnsafeMutableTransferBox` -> removed that type
which should never be created
2. A loooong future chain (instead of one final promise) -> implemented
3. Potentially infinite recursion which lead to the crash in #784) ->
fixed too
Enable MemberImportVisibility check on all targets. Use a standard
string header and footer to bracket the new block for ease of updating
in the future with scripts.
Update the release.yml file with the latest label changes
# Motivation

The NIO 2.78 release introduced a bunch of new warnings. These warnings
cause us a bunch of trouble, so we should fix them.

# Modifications

Mostly use a bunch of assumeIsolated() and syncOperations.

# Result 

CI passes again.

Note that Swift 6 has _many_ more warnings than this, but we expect more
to come and we aren't using warnings-as-errors on that mode at the
moment. We'll be cleaning that up soon.
This PR adds support for Android, mostly just by importing the Android
module when needed.
### Motivation:

In some cases we can crash because of a precondition failure when the
write timeout fires and we aren't in the running state. This can happen
for example if the connection is closed whilst the write timer is
active.

### Modifications:

* Remove the precondition and instead take no action if the timeout
fires outside of the running state. Instead we take a new `Action`,
`.noAction` when the timer fires.
* Clear write timeouts upon request completion. When a request completes
we have no use for the idle write timer, we clear the read timer and we
should clear the write one too.

### Result:

Fewer crashes.

The supplied tests fails without these changes and passes with either of them.
CI use 6.1 nightlies now that Swift development is happening in the 6.1
branch
At the moment, `HTTPClient`'s entire API surface violates Structured
Concurrency. Both the creation & shutdown of a HTTP client as well as
making requests (#807) doesn't follow Structured Concurrency. Some of
the problems are:

1. Upon return of methods, resources are still in active use in other
threads/tasks
2. Cancellation doesn't always work

This PR is baby steps towards a Structured Concurrency API, starting
with start/shutdown of the HTTP client.

Specifically Swift 5.10 _on Intel on Ubuntu Noble (24.04)_ has a crazy
bug which leads to compilation failures in a `#if compiler(>=6.0)`
block: swiftlang/swift#79285 .

This workaround fixes the compilation by _changing the whitespace_.

Thanks @gwynne for finding this workaround!

Motivation

EmbeddedEventLoop is not thread-safe, which means that outside of very
rare use-cases it's not safe to use it in Swift Concurrency.

Modifications

Replace invalid uses of EmbeddedEventLoop with NIOAsyncTestingEventLoop

Result

Better safety
