> But IMHO a new system property/run time flag will add the need to run
always twice the full suite at every build/release.
Maybe. We have a good degree of flakyness in our testing and wondering if
using this type of change for our precommit hook will increase performance and
stability (especially if we can use something similar for server<->server).
> At this moment I think it is not the time to add an official "local
transport" netty connection factory.
Agreed.
> I can't find how to enable Netty for server-to-server communications
It is currently not possible. All communications there are handled by old
fashioned sockets. I was incorrect in my other comment, although I still think
my point is valid. Is there a way to have similar functionality with old
fashioned java sockets? I don't think this change makes too much sense for
testing unless we can take zk off the OS network stack entirely.

> Key: ZOOKEEPER-2755
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2755
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: java client, server
> Affects Versions: 3.5.2
> Reporter: Enrico Olivelli
>
> ClientCnxnSocketNetty and NettyServerCnxn use explicitly InetSocketAddress
> class to work with network addresses.
> We can do a little refactoring to use only SocketAddress and make it possible
> to create subclasses of ClientCnxnSocketNetty and NettyServerCnxn which
> leverage built-in Netty 'local' channels.
> Such Netty local channels do not create real sockets and so allow a simple
> ZooKeeper server + ZooKeeper client to be run on the same JVM without binding
> to real TCP endpoints.
> Usecases:
> Ability to run concurrently on the same machine tests of projects which use
> ZooKeeper (usually in unit tests the server and the client run inside the
> same JVM) without dealing with random ports and in general using less network
> resources
> Run simplified (standalone, all processes in the same JVM) versions of
> applications which need a working ZooKeeper ensemble to run.
> Note:
> Embedding ZooKeeper server + client on the same JVM has many risks and in
> general I think we should encourage users to do so, so I in this patch I will
> not provide official implementations of ClientCnxnSocketNetty and
> NettyServerCnxn. There will be implementations only inside the test packages,
> in order to test that most of the features are working with custom socket
> factories and in particular with the 'LocalAddress' specific subclass of
> SocketAddress.
> Note:
> the 'Local' sockets feature will be available on Netty 4 too
