[crypto] Updated to Support OpenSSL 1.1.0i
Commons Crypto Dev Team, I modified a copy of the commons crypto codebase to support OpenSSL 1.1.0i (this was before I saw JIRA CRYPTO-140 "adding suuport for openssl 1.1.0g in common crypto"). It successfully runs mvn clean test on Mac OS X 10.13.6 and Ubuntu 18.04 with Java 8 and OpenSSL 1.1.0i. I was unable to test on Windows, presumably because of CRYPTO-137 Error compiling on Win64 with Mingw. I did not preserve compatibility with previous versions of OpenSSL because I don't need it for the project for which I'm using commons crypto. Is there is interest in maintaining separate branches for different versions of OpenSSL or for incorporating some of my 1.1.0i-compatible code into a master that supports multiple underlying OpenSSL versions? If so, I'll fork the repo and send a pull request. I also need to incorporate message digest functionality, so if there's interest in expanding that functionality I'll be glad to share the end product. Thoughts? Alex
Re: [crypto] Updated to Support OpenSSL 1.1.0i
Hi Alex, There have been other attempts at this (e.g. https://github.com/apache/commons-crypto/pull/90), and my main concern with those is that they require different builds for OpenSSL 1.0 and 1.1. It seems your approach falls in that bucket, at least without additional work. The problem with that is that it becomes super annoying to consume commons-crypto in other projects. Which maven coordinates do you use? If you're building something like Spark, which is meant to be deployed in a bunch of different places with potentially different OpenSSL versions, how do you even do it? So IMO any approach to this needs to support both OpenSSL versions in the same commons-crypto jar file. That doesn't necessarily mean the same underlying JNI library, although doing that would make creating a binary releases easier (less build platforms to juggle).

Re: [crypto] Updated to Support OpenSSL 1.1.0i
Marcelo, Thanks for the note. When I started down this path, I was only concerned with getting things working in my own environment, but after reading the comments on the pull request at the link, I'm in complete agreement with your goals here. I'll have to give it some thought, but at first glance I don't think it would be too difficult to do a dynamic version lookup of OpenSSL from which to instantiate the version-compatible commons-crypto object. It appears that implementations for 1.0 and 1.1 are already written, and the challenge is how to best merge them into one build.

Let me start by repeating that other than trying to help diagnose bugs and answer user questions, I don't really work on [pool] any more, so I don't really have any standing here. You are the RM, so it is completely up to you and the active Commons committers to decide what to do with the code. So fine to ignore my comments. I think that the right answer here is WONT_FIX. That sounds harsh, but it seems to me that the obvious solution here is for the user to set maxIdle to at least 1. I thought about that as well! Setting maxIdle to 1 will make it less likely but a deadlock will STILL happen. I am not sure this is right. If maxIdle >0, the fix for POOL-240 (a similar liveness issue) should kick in and work. Each time a validation or passivation failure occurs on return, there is a call to ensureIdle that will create a new instance and add it to the pool if there is capacity to do so. So I fear we really need to tackle this. Stackoverflow and our own bug tracker is full of such reports :( I see one additional actual report on GKOP (the other linked issue, which should be similarly patched if the consensus is to do this for GOP). The vast majority of the liveness reports that we have gotten over the years in DBCP and pool are just pool exhausted due to failure to return instances. The workaround violating maxIdle will restore liveness, but is likely the wrong solution here. Again, up to you guys to judge. Note that when you specify maxIdle equal to 1 Crap. Meant 0 there. you are telling the pool to destroy all returning instances. To use the pool in this way is silly, IMO. With your patch, new instances are still created for *every* borrow. The pool and all of its machinery is doing nothing other than tracking the number of active instances and making sure life cycle events are fired. If you want the semantics of returning object with threads waiting to be that the returning object is passivated, activated and handed directly to a waiter without every hitting the idle instance pool, that would require rewriting a fair bit of the borrow / return code. It is an interesting idea and would solve the POOL-240 as well. One final comment. If you stick with something like what is in the code now, you should make sure to passivate the new instance before putting it into the pool. I just noticed that ensureIdle does not do that, which I think is a bug in that method. So if you want to proceed with this fix, I would recommend 1. Move the ensureIdle activations added in POOL-240 into destroy itself. 2. Add passivation to ensureIdle 3. Implement corresponding workaround for GKOP Sorry, all. Looking again and thinking a little more, I think the best fix for this is actually to prevent the destroy on return in the first place if there are take waiters. The maxIdle invariant gets violated with the ensureIdle or direct create() fix anyway and just allowing the returning instance to go into the pool avoids the needless destroy / create sequence. A simple way to do this is just to recode maxIdle before the destroy test in returnObject. Instead of final int maxIdleSave = getMaxIdle() explicitly recode it: // If maxIdle is set to 0 and there are take waiters, bump it to 1 // to preserve liveness. final int maxIdleSave = idleObjects.hasTakeWaiters() ? Math.max(1,getMaxIdle()) : getMaxIdle(); Phil Phil LieGrue, strub Am 23.11.2018 um 16:51 schrieb Phil Steitz: On 11/23/18 2:57 AM, Mark Struberg wrote: should read: This change (putting a new item back to the idle pool) was needed to prevent a dead-lock *grabbing a fresh coffee* le I am sorry I did not look carefully enough at this issue before reviewing the change. After reviewing the DBCP ticket (OP likely unrelated, IMO), I think that the right answer here is WONT_FIX. That sounds harsh, but it seems to me that the obvious solution here is for the user to set maxIdle to at least 1. What the fix does is effectively that, without changing the setting. If waiting threads die or time out while the create is happening, there will be an idle instance in the pool and for certain one is being put there on the way to getting checked back out. See comments on POOL-327. If the consensus is to insert this workaround to enable the pool to retain liveness in the use case, it's probably best to use ensureIdle(1, false) (see POOL-240). It could be that just moving the call to ensureIdle inside destroy would be OK. But as stated above, this breaks the maxIdle contract. I see that your original report / use case here is from DBCP, Mark. Was it prepared statements or connections that you were trying to limit to 0 idle? Is there a reason that just using 1 would not work? Phil Am 23.11.2018 um 10:49 schrieb Mark Struberg: This change
