写在前面
netty是在java生态中被广泛使用的网络框架，封装了bio nio等io模式，udp tcp http等网络协议，它做到屏蔽网络底层细节与高性能，让开发者更专注于上层逻辑。dubbo、rocketmq等中间件都使用netty作为网络通信框架。
netty框架组成图
废话不多说，直接开始源码解析。
server初始化解析
先看一下Server的初始化demo，看看是怎么启动的。首先创建ServerBootstrap，然后设置bossGroup和workerGroup，设置网络option，设置NioServerSocketChannel，设置channel初始化方法，即为pipeline添加处理器，最后bind到本地端口，结束初始化流程。
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
EventLoopGroup bossGroup = new NioEventLoopGroup(1);
EventLoopGroup workerGroup = new NioEventLoopGroup();
try {
ServerBootstrap b = new ServerBootstrap();
b.group(bossGroup, workerGroup);
b.option(ChannelOption.SO_BACKLOG, 1024);
b.channel(NioServerSocketChannel.class);
b.childHandler(new ChannelInitializer<SocketChannel>() {
protected void initChannel(SocketChannel ch) throws Exception {
ch.pipeline().addLast("encoder", MqttEncoder.INSTANCE);
ch.pipeline().addLast("decoder", new MqttDecoder());
ch.pipeline().addLast("heartBeatHandler", new IdleStateHandler(45, 0, 0, TimeUnit.SECONDS));
ch.pipeline().addLast("handler", MqttHeartBeatBrokerHandler.INSTANCE);
}
});
ChannelFuture f = b.bind(1883).sync();
System.out.println("Broker initiated...");
f.channel().closeFuture().sync();
} finally {
workerGroup.shutdownGracefully();
bossGroup.shutdownGracefully();
}
}
group方法是对ServerBootstrap的group和childGroup进行赋值，不再细说。
option方法是对ServerBootstrap的options进行赋值，不再细说。
channel方法是生成ReflectiveChannelFactory，然后赋值到ServerBootstrap的channelFactory，ReflectiveChannelFactory可以根据传入的channel.class，利用反射调用构造方法进行生成实例。
public B channel(Class<? extends C> channelClass) {
return channelFactory(new ReflectiveChannelFactory<C>(
ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(channelClass, "channelClass")
));
}
@SuppressWarnings({ "unchecked", "deprecation" })
public B channelFactory(io.netty.channel.ChannelFactory<? extends C> channelFactory) {
return channelFactory((ChannelFactory<C>) channelFactory);
}
@Deprecated
public B channelFactory(ChannelFactory<? extends C> channelFactory) {
ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(channelFactory, "channelFactory");
if (this.channelFactory != null) {
throw new IllegalStateException("channelFactory set already");
}
this.channelFactory = channelFactory;
return self();
}
childHandler方法是对ServerBootstrap的childHandler进行赋值，不再细说。
终于来到重点，那么bind方法会做什么事情呢？bind会最终调用到AbstractBootstrap的doBind方法，先调用initAndRegister，再调用doBind0。
private ChannelFuture doBind(final SocketAddress localAddress) {
final ChannelFuture regFuture = initAndRegister();
final Channel channel = regFuture.channel();
if (regFuture.cause() != null) {
return regFuture;
}
if (regFuture.isDone()) {
// At this point we know that the registration was complete and successful.
ChannelPromise promise = channel.newPromise();
doBind0(regFuture, channel, localAddress, promise);
return promise;
} else {
// Registration future is almost always fulfilled already, but just in case it's not.
final PendingRegistrationPromise promise = new PendingRegistrationPromise(channel);
regFuture.addListener(new ChannelFutureListener() {
@Override
public void operationComplete(ChannelFuture future) throws Exception {
Throwable cause = future.cause();
if (cause != null) {
// Registration on the EventLoop failed so fail the ChannelPromise directly to not cause an
// IllegalStateException once we try to access the EventLoop of the Channel.
promise.setFailure(cause);
} else {
// Registration was successful, so set the correct executor to use.
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2586
promise.registered();
doBind0(regFuture, channel, localAddress, promise);
}
}
});
return promise;
}
}
来到initAndRegister，先调用channelFactory.newChannel生成channel，这里就是调用ReflectiveChannelFactory的newChannel生成的NioServerSocketChannel，再调用init方法，初始化channel，最后调用register方法，注册channel。
final ChannelFuture initAndRegister() {
Channel channel = null;
try {
channel = channelFactory.newChannel();
init(channel);
} catch (Throwable t) {
if (channel != null) {
// channel can be null if newChannel crashed (eg SocketException("too many open files"))
channel.unsafe().closeForcibly();
// as the Channel is not registered yet we need to force the usage of the GlobalEventExecutor
return new DefaultChannelPromise(channel, GlobalEventExecutor.INSTANCE).setFailure(t);
}
// as the Channel is not registered yet we need to force the usage of the GlobalEventExecutor
return new DefaultChannelPromise(new FailedChannel(), GlobalEventExecutor.INSTANCE).setFailure(t);
}
ChannelFuture regFuture = config().group().register(channel);
if (regFuture.cause() != null) {
if (channel.isRegistered()) {
channel.close();
} else {
channel.unsafe().closeForcibly();
}
}
// If we are here and the promise is not failed, it's one of the following cases:
// 1) If we attempted registration from the event loop, the registration has been completed at this point.
// i.e. It's safe to attempt bind() or connect() now because the channel has been registered.
// 2) If we attempted registration from the other thread, the registration request has been successfully
// added to the event loop's task queue for later execution.
// i.e. It's safe to attempt bind() or connect() now:
// because bind() or connect() will be executed *after* the scheduled registration task is executed
// because register(), bind(), and connect() are all bound to the same thread.
return regFuture;
}
来看init方法，可以看到向channel设置了options和attributes，然后向channel的pipeline设置一个ServerBootstrapAcceptor。可以看到ServerBootstrapAcceptor的初始化带上了childGroup、childHandler、currentChildOptions、currentChildAttrs，就可以理解此类是为了接收accept事件并生成childChannel往childGroup注册的处理关键类。
@Override
void init(Channel channel) {
setChannelOptions(channel, newOptionsArray(), logger);
setAttributes(channel, attrs0().entrySet().toArray(EMPTY_ATTRIBUTE_ARRAY));
ChannelPipeline p = channel.pipeline();
final EventLoopGroup currentChildGroup = childGroup;
final ChannelHandler currentChildHandler = childHandler;
final Entry<ChannelOption<?>, Object>[] currentChildOptions;
synchronized (childOptions) {
currentChildOptions = childOptions.entrySet().toArray(EMPTY_OPTION_ARRAY);
}
final Entry<AttributeKey<?>, Object>[] currentChildAttrs = childAttrs.entrySet().toArray(EMPTY_ATTRIBUTE_ARRAY);
p.addLast(new ChannelInitializer<Channel>() {
@Override
public void initChannel(final Channel ch) {
final ChannelPipeline pipeline = ch.pipeline();
ChannelHandler handler = config.handler();
if (handler != null) {
pipeline.addLast(handler);
}
ch.eventLoop().execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
pipeline.addLast(new ServerBootstrapAcceptor(
ch, currentChildGroup, currentChildHandler, currentChildOptions, currentChildAttrs));
}
});
}
});
}
再看到register方法，会调用到bossGroup的register方法，继续调用到unsafe.register。
@Override
public ChannelFuture register(final ChannelPromise promise) {
ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(promise, "promise");
promise.channel().unsafe().register(this, promise);
return promise;
}
来到AbstractUnsafe.register，会经过调用链register0->doRegister，最终来到AbstractNioChannel的doRegister方法，终于接触到java的底层网络相关类，调用SelectableChannel的register完成向底层注册。
@Override
protected void doRegister() throws Exception {
boolean selected = false;
for (;;) {
try {
selectionKey = javaChannel().register(eventLoop().unwrappedSelector(), 0, this);
return;
} catch (CancelledKeyException e) {
if (!selected) {
// Force the Selector to select now as the "canceled" SelectionKey may still be
// cached and not removed because no Select.select(..) operation was called yet.
eventLoop().selectNow();
selected = true;
} else {
// We forced a select operation on the selector before but the SelectionKey is still cached
// for whatever reason. JDK bug ?
throw e;
}
}
}
}
register0完成底层注册后，会调用doBeginRead，向selectionKey注册兴趣事件（即accept事件）。
@Override
protected void doBeginRead() throws Exception {
// Channel.read() or ChannelHandlerContext.read() was called
final SelectionKey selectionKey = this.selectionKey;
if (!selectionKey.isValid()) {
return;
}
readPending = true;
final int interestOps = selectionKey.interestOps();
if ((interestOps & readInterestOp) == 0) {
selectionKey.interestOps(interestOps | readInterestOp);
}
}
最后是doBind0，会调用到底层的bind方法。最终完成了server的初始化。
private static void doBind0(
final ChannelFuture regFuture, final Channel channel,
final SocketAddress localAddress, final ChannelPromise promise) {
// This method is invoked before channelRegistered() is triggered. Give user handlers a chance to set up
// the pipeline in its channelRegistered() implementation.
channel.eventLoop().execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
if (regFuture.isSuccess()) {
channel.bind(localAddress, promise).addListener(ChannelFutureListener.CLOSE_ON_FAILURE);
} else {
promise.setFailure(regFuture.cause());
}
}
});
}
@SuppressJava6Requirement(reason = "Usage guarded by java version check")
@Override
protected void doBind(SocketAddress localAddress) throws Exception {
if (PlatformDependent.javaVersion() >= 7) {
javaChannel().bind(localAddress, config.getBacklog());
} else {
javaChannel().socket().bind(localAddress, config.getBacklog());
}
}
client初始化解析
client的初始化是调用Bootstrap的connect方法进行的，继续调用doResolveAndConnect处理。
public ChannelFuture connect(SocketAddress remoteAddress) {
ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(remoteAddress, "remoteAddress");
validate();
return doResolveAndConnect(remoteAddress, config.localAddress());
}
一样的，client的initAndRegister跟server同理，不一样的只是会注册的事件是read。
private ChannelFuture doResolveAndConnect(final SocketAddress remoteAddress, final SocketAddress localAddress) {
final ChannelFuture regFuture = initAndRegister();
final Channel channel = regFuture.channel();
if (regFuture.isDone()) {
if (!regFuture.isSuccess()) {
return regFuture;
}
return doResolveAndConnect0(channel, remoteAddress, localAddress, channel.newPromise());
} else {
// Registration future is almost always fulfilled already, but just in case it's not.
final PendingRegistrationPromise promise = new PendingRegistrationPromise(channel);
regFuture.addListener(new ChannelFutureListener() {
@Override
public void operationComplete(ChannelFuture future) throws Exception {
// Directly obtain the cause and do a null check so we only need one volatile read in case of a
// failure.
Throwable cause = future.cause();
if (cause != null) {
// Registration on the EventLoop failed so fail the ChannelPromise directly to not cause an
// IllegalStateException once we try to access the EventLoop of the Channel.
promise.setFailure(cause);
} else {
// Registration was successful, so set the correct executor to use.
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2586
promise.registered();
doResolveAndConnect0(channel, remoteAddress, localAddress, promise);
}
}
});
return promise;
}
}
来到doResolveAndConnect0，会调用doConnect->channel.connect。
private ChannelFuture doResolveAndConnect0(final Channel channel, SocketAddress remoteAddress,
final SocketAddress localAddress, final ChannelPromise promise) {
try {
final EventLoop eventLoop = channel.eventLoop();
AddressResolver<SocketAddress> resolver;
try {
resolver = this.resolver.getResolver(eventLoop);
} catch (Throwable cause) {
channel.close();
return promise.setFailure(cause);
}
if (!resolver.isSupported(remoteAddress) || resolver.isResolved(remoteAddress)) {
// Resolver has no idea about what to do with the specified remote address or it's resolved already.
doConnect(remoteAddress, localAddress, promise);
return promise;
}
final Future<SocketAddress> resolveFuture = resolver.resolve(remoteAddress);
if (resolveFuture.isDone()) {
final Throwable resolveFailureCause = resolveFuture.cause();
if (resolveFailureCause != null) {
// Failed to resolve immediately
channel.close();
promise.setFailure(resolveFailureCause);
} else {
// Succeeded to resolve immediately; cached? (or did a blocking lookup)
doConnect(resolveFuture.getNow(), localAddress, promise);
}
return promise;
}
// Wait until the name resolution is finished.
resolveFuture.addListener(new FutureListener<SocketAddress>() {
@Override
public void operationComplete(Future<SocketAddress> future) throws Exception {
if (future.cause() != null) {
channel.close();
promise.setFailure(future.cause());
} else {
doConnect(future.getNow(), localAddress, promise);
}
}
});
} catch (Throwable cause) {
promise.tryFailure(cause);
}
return promise;
}
private static void doConnect(
final SocketAddress remoteAddress, final SocketAddress localAddress, final ChannelPromise connectPromise) {
// This method is invoked before channelRegistered() is triggered. Give user handlers a chance to set up
// the pipeline in its channelRegistered() implementation.
final Channel channel = connectPromise.channel();
channel.eventLoop().execute(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
if (localAddress == null) {
channel.connect(remoteAddress, connectPromise);
} else {
channel.connect(remoteAddress, localAddress, connectPromise);
}
connectPromise.addListener(ChannelFutureListener.CLOSE_ON_FAILURE);
}
});
}
最终会来到AbstractNioChannel.AbstractNioUnsafe.connect，然后调用到doConnect。
@Override
public final void connect(
final SocketAddress remoteAddress, final SocketAddress localAddress, final ChannelPromise promise) {
if (!promise.setUncancellable() || !ensureOpen(promise)) {
return;
}
try {
if (connectPromise != null) {
// Already a connect in process.
throw new ConnectionPendingException();
}
boolean wasActive = isActive();
if (doConnect(remoteAddress, localAddress)) {
fulfillConnectPromise(promise, wasActive);
} else {
connectPromise = promise;
requestedRemoteAddress = remoteAddress;
// Schedule connect timeout.
int connectTimeoutMillis = config().getConnectTimeoutMillis();
if (connectTimeoutMillis > 0) {
connectTimeoutFuture = eventLoop().schedule(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
ChannelPromise connectPromise = AbstractNioChannel.this.connectPromise;
if (connectPromise != null && !connectPromise.isDone()
&& connectPromise.tryFailure(new ConnectTimeoutException(
"connection timed out: " + remoteAddress))) {
close(voidPromise());
}
}
}, connectTimeoutMillis, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
}
promise.addListener(new ChannelFutureListener() {
@Override
public void operationComplete(ChannelFuture future) throws Exception {
if (future.isCancelled()) {
if (connectTimeoutFuture != null) {
connectTimeoutFuture.cancel(false);
}
connectPromise = null;
close(voidPromise());
}
}
});
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
promise.tryFailure(annotateConnectException(t, remoteAddress));
closeIfClosed();
}
}
doConnect调用底层connect，若没完成则注册connect事件。完成client的初始化。
@Override
protected boolean doConnect(SocketAddress remoteAddress, SocketAddress localAddress) throws Exception {
if (localAddress != null) {
doBind0(localAddress);
}
boolean success = false;
try {
boolean connected = SocketUtils.connect(javaChannel(), remoteAddress);
if (!connected) {
selectionKey().interestOps(SelectionKey.OP_CONNECT);
}
success = true;
return connected;
} finally {
if (!success) {
doClose();
}
}
}
client发送消息到server处理
来到AbstractChannel的writeAndFlush方法，会调用到pipeline.writeAndFlush->tail.writeAndFlush->AbstractChannelHandlerContext.writeAndFlush，最终来到其write方法。
@Override
public ChannelFuture writeAndFlush(Object msg) {
return pipeline.writeAndFlush(msg);
}
@Override
public final ChannelFuture writeAndFlush(Object msg) {
return tail.writeAndFlush(msg);
}
@Override
public ChannelFuture writeAndFlush(Object msg) {
return writeAndFlush(msg, newPromise());
}
@Override
public ChannelFuture writeAndFlush(Object msg, ChannelPromise promise) {
write(msg, true, promise);
return promise;
}
来到write方法，会取出对应的下一个ChannelHandlerContext，调用其write方法，再调用其flush方法。
private void write(Object msg, boolean flush, ChannelPromise promise) {
ObjectUtil.checkNotNull(msg, "msg");
try {
if (isNotValidPromise(promise, true)) {
ReferenceCountUtil.release(msg);
// cancelled
return;
}
} catch (RuntimeException e) {
ReferenceCountUtil.release(msg);
throw e;
}
final AbstractChannelHandlerContext next = findContextOutbound(flush ?
(MASK_WRITE | MASK_FLUSH) : MASK_WRITE);
final Object m = pipeline.touch(msg, next);
EventExecutor executor = next.executor();
if (executor.inEventLoop()) {
if (flush) {
next.invokeWriteAndFlush(m, promise);
} else {
next.invokeWrite(m, promise);
}
} else {
final WriteTask task = WriteTask.newInstance(next, m, promise, flush);
if (!safeExecute(executor, task, promise, m, !flush)) {
// We failed to submit the WriteTask. We need to cancel it so we decrement the pending bytes
// and put it back in the Recycler for re-use later.
//
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8343.
task.cancel();
}
}
}
void invokeWriteAndFlush(Object msg, ChannelPromise promise) {
if (invokeHandler()) {
invokeWrite0(msg, promise);
invokeFlush0();
} else {
writeAndFlush(msg, promise);
}
}
private void invokeWrite0(Object msg, ChannelPromise promise) {
try {
((ChannelOutboundHandler) handler()).write(this, msg, promise);
} catch (Throwable t) {
notifyOutboundHandlerException(t, promise);
}
}
private void invokeFlush0() {
try {
((ChannelOutboundHandler) handler()).flush(this);
} catch (Throwable t) {
invokeExceptionCaught(t);
}
}
经过业务的handler后，最终会流经HeadContext的write和flush方法，调用unsafe的write和flush方法。
@Override
public void write(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, Object msg, ChannelPromise promise) {
unsafe.write(msg, promise);
}
@Override
public void flush(ChannelHandlerContext ctx) {
unsafe.flush();
}
unsafe的write方法主要是将msg添加到outboundBuffer中。
@Override
public final void write(Object msg, ChannelPromise promise) {
assertEventLoop();
ChannelOutboundBuffer outboundBuffer = this.outboundBuffer;
if (outboundBuffer == null) {
try {
// release message now to prevent resource-leak
ReferenceCountUtil.release(msg);
} finally {
// If the outboundBuffer is null we know the channel was closed and so
// need to fail the future right away. If it is not null the handling of the rest
// will be done in flush0()
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2362
safeSetFailure(promise,
newClosedChannelException(initialCloseCause, "write(Object, ChannelPromise)"));
}
return;
}
int size;
try {
msg = filterOutboundMessage(msg);
size = pipeline.estimatorHandle().size(msg);
if (size < 0) {
size = 0;
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
try {
ReferenceCountUtil.release(msg);
} finally {
safeSetFailure(promise, t);
}
return;
}
outboundBuffer.addMessage(msg, size, promise);
}
unsafe的flush方法会调用到doWrite方法，将buffer的数据写入到底层的channel，并且注册write事件，等待再次强制flush。
@Override
protected void doWrite(ChannelOutboundBuffer in) throws Exception {
int writeSpinCount = config().getWriteSpinCount();
do {
Object msg = in.current();
if (msg == null) {
// Wrote all messages.
clearOpWrite();
// Directly return here so incompleteWrite(...) is not called.
return;
}
writeSpinCount -= doWriteInternal(in, msg);
} while (writeSpinCount > 0);
incompleteWrite(writeSpinCount < 0);
}
private int doWriteInternal(ChannelOutboundBuffer in, Object msg) throws Exception {
if (msg instanceof ByteBuf) {
ByteBuf buf = (ByteBuf) msg;
if (!buf.isReadable()) {
in.remove();
return 0;
}
final int localFlushedAmount = doWriteBytes(buf);
if (localFlushedAmount > 0) {
in.progress(localFlushedAmount);
if (!buf.isReadable()) {
in.remove();
}
return 1;
}
} else if (msg instanceof FileRegion) {
FileRegion region = (FileRegion) msg;
if (region.transferred() >= region.count()) {
in.remove();
return 0;
}
long localFlushedAmount = doWriteFileRegion(region);
if (localFlushedAmount > 0) {
in.progress(localFlushedAmount);
if (region.transferred() >= region.count()) {
in.remove();
}
return 1;
}
} else {
// Should not reach here.
throw new Error();
}
return WRITE_STATUS_SNDBUF_FULL;
}
@Override
protected int doWriteBytes(ByteBuf buf) throws Exception {
final int expectedWrittenBytes = buf.readableBytes();
return buf.readBytes(javaChannel(), expectedWrittenBytes);
}
protected final void incompleteWrite(boolean setOpWrite) {
// Did not write completely.
if (setOpWrite) {
setOpWrite();
} else {
// It is possible that we have set the write OP, woken up by NIO because the socket is writable, and then
// use our write quantum. In this case we no longer want to set the write OP because the socket is still
// writable (as far as we know). We will find out next time we attempt to write if the socket is writable
// and set the write OP if necessary.
clearOpWrite();
// Schedule flush again later so other tasks can be picked up in the meantime
eventLoop().execute(flushTask);
}
}
protected final void setOpWrite() {
final SelectionKey key = selectionKey();
// Check first if the key is still valid as it may be canceled as part of the deregistration
// from the EventLoop
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2104
if (!key.isValid()) {
return;
}
final int interestOps = key.interestOps();
if ((interestOps & SelectionKey.OP_WRITE) == 0) {
key.interestOps(interestOps | SelectionKey.OP_WRITE);
}
}
回到server端，server需要先接收client的连接获取到channel注册到childGroup。还记得注册的accept事件吗？当事件到来，在NioEventLoop里会调用unsafe.read处理。
// Process OP_WRITE first as we may be able to write some queued buffers and so free memory.
if ((readyOps & SelectionKey.OP_WRITE) != 0) {
// Call forceFlush which will also take care of clear the OP_WRITE once there is nothing left to write
ch.unsafe().forceFlush();
}
unsafe.read会调用doReadMessages读取连接信息，然后调用pipeline.fireChannelRead进行处理。
@Override
public void read() {
assert eventLoop().inEventLoop();
final ChannelConfig config = config();
final ChannelPipeline pipeline = pipeline();
final RecvByteBufAllocator.Handle allocHandle = unsafe().recvBufAllocHandle();
allocHandle.reset(config);
boolean closed = false;
Throwable exception = null;
try {
try {
do {
int localRead = doReadMessages(readBuf);
if (localRead == 0) {
break;
}
if (localRead < 0) {
closed = true;
break;
}
allocHandle.incMessagesRead(localRead);
} while (allocHandle.continueReading());
} catch (Throwable t) {
exception = t;
}
int size = readBuf.size();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i ++) {
readPending = false;
pipeline.fireChannelRead(readBuf.get(i));
}
readBuf.clear();
allocHandle.readComplete();
pipeline.fireChannelReadComplete();
if (exception != null) {
closed = closeOnReadError(exception);
pipeline.fireExceptionCaught(exception);
}
if (closed) {
inputShutdown = true;
if (isOpen()) {
close(voidPromise());
}
}
} finally {
// Check if there is a readPending which was not processed yet.
// This could be for two reasons:
// * The user called Channel.read() or ChannelHandlerContext.read() in channelRead(...) method
// * The user called Channel.read() or ChannelHandlerContext.read() in channelReadComplete(...) method
//
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2254
if (!readPending && !config.isAutoRead()) {
removeReadOp();
}
}
}
}
doReadMessages会调用底层channel的accept方法获取到SocketChannel，并封装成NioSocketChannel进行返回。
@Override
protected int doReadMessages(List<Object> buf) throws Exception {
SocketChannel ch = SocketUtils.accept(javaChannel());
try {
if (ch != null) {
buf.add(new NioSocketChannel(this, ch));
return 1;
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
logger.warn("Failed to create a new channel from an accepted socket.", t);
try {
ch.close();
} catch (Throwable t2) {
logger.warn("Failed to close a socket.", t2);
}
}
return 0;
}
pipeline.fireChannelRead会调用到ServerBootstrapAcceptor的channelRead方法，可以看到对Channel设置了handler、options、attributes，并将其注册到childGroup，一样会监听read事件。
@Override
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public void channelRead(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, Object msg) {
final Channel child = (Channel) msg;
child.pipeline().addLast(childHandler);
setChannelOptions(child, childOptions, logger);
setAttributes(child, childAttrs);
try {
childGroup.register(child).addListener(new ChannelFutureListener() {
@Override
public void operationComplete(ChannelFuture future) throws Exception {
if (!future.isSuccess()) {
forceClose(child, future.cause());
}
}
});
} catch (Throwable t) {
forceClose(child, t);
}
}
来看到处理client请求的unsafe.read方法，通过doReadBytes调用底层channel读取数据，最后调用pipeline.fireChannelRead让handler进行处理。
@Override
public final void read() {
final ChannelConfig config = config();
if (shouldBreakReadReady(config)) {
clearReadPending();
return;
}
final ChannelPipeline pipeline = pipeline();
final ByteBufAllocator allocator = config.getAllocator();
final RecvByteBufAllocator.Handle allocHandle = recvBufAllocHandle();
allocHandle.reset(config);
ByteBuf byteBuf = null;
boolean close = false;
try {
do {
byteBuf = allocHandle.allocate(allocator);
allocHandle.lastBytesRead(doReadBytes(byteBuf));
if (allocHandle.lastBytesRead() <= 0) {
// nothing was read. release the buffer.
byteBuf.release();
byteBuf = null;
close = allocHandle.lastBytesRead() < 0;
if (close) {
// There is nothing left to read as we received an EOF.
readPending = false;
}
break;
}
allocHandle.incMessagesRead(1);
readPending = false;
pipeline.fireChannelRead(byteBuf);
byteBuf = null;
} while (allocHandle.continueReading());
allocHandle.readComplete();
pipeline.fireChannelReadComplete();
if (close) {
closeOnRead(pipeline);
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
handleReadException(pipeline, byteBuf, t, close, allocHandle);
} finally {
// Check if there is a readPending which was not processed yet.
// This could be for two reasons:
// * The user called Channel.read() or ChannelHandlerContext.read() in channelRead(...) method
// * The user called Channel.read() or ChannelHandlerContext.read() in channelReadComplete(...) method
//
// See https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2254
if (!readPending && !config.isAutoRead()) {
removeReadOp();
}
}
}
}
@Override
protected int doReadBytes(ByteBuf byteBuf) throws Exception {
final RecvByteBufAllocator.Handle allocHandle = unsafe().recvBufAllocHandle();
allocHandle.attemptedBytesRead(byteBuf.writableBytes());
return byteBuf.writeBytes(javaChannel(), allocHandle.attemptedBytesRead());
}
