Motivation:

Sometimes users might want to disconnect an active connection after a certain period of time.
This is useful when balance loads with an L4 load balancer which not understand HTTP2 connection.
By closing connections periodically, new connections are able to spread to other servers.

Modifications:

  • Add defaultServerMaxConnectionAgeMillis flag. This option is disabled by default.
  • Add maxConnectionAge{Millis} to ServerBuilder`.
  • Record CONNECTION_START_TIME_NANO when a channel is initialized.
  • Disconnect a connection after exceeding maxConnectionAge by sending:
    • "Connection: close" for HTTP/1
    • GOAWAY frame for HTTP/2
  • Fix a bug where channel.close() throws NullPointerException when idle timeout is set to 0

Result:

  • You can now disconnect an old connection.

… server-side (line#2747)

Modifications:

- Disconnect a connection after exceeding `maxConnectionAge` by sending:

Result:

- You can now disconnect an old connection.

…for client

Motivation:

A long connection can cause load imbalance between servers if clients does not use client-side balance.
The clients will use L4 loadbalancer which keeps a connection to a server.

The traffic could be rebalanced by closing connections periodically or after N requests.
A max connection age for server-side was added by line#2747.
However max connection age for client and max number of requeets for server and client have not impletemented yet.

Related: line#203 line#2741 line#2747

Modifications:

- Add `maxNumRequests` to `ServerBuilder`, `ClientFactoryBuilder` and `Flags`
  - Send `GOAWAY` or `Connection: close` by server-side
  - Remove from channel pool and close a connection or send `GOAWAY` by client-side
- Add `maxConnnectionAge{Millis}` to `ClientFactoryBuilder` and `Flags`
- Keep track of requests count by KeepAliveHandler to determine a connection is needed to close
- Remove some fields, derived from ClientFatory, in `HttpChannelPool` and
  pass `ClientFactory` to `HttpSessionHandler` for reducing object size and simplicity.
- Add `MaxConnectionAgeExceededTask` to close an expired connection.

Result:

- You can now set a maximum allowed number of requests for a connection.
  ```java
  // For server
  Server.builder()
        // A connection will be closed after serving 10000 requests.
        .maxNumRequests(10000);

  // For client
  ClientFactory.builder()
               // A connection will be closed after fully receving 2000th requests.
               .maxNumRequests(2000)
  ```
- You can now set a maximum allowed connection age for a connection on client-side.
  ```java
  // A connection will be closed in 10 seconds after the connection is established.
  ClientFactory.builder()
               .maxConnnectionAgeMillis(10000)
  ```
- Fixes line#203

A max connection age for server-side was added by #2747.
