Is there a bugid for this? We need to submit a CCC request also to make the spec change.

Thanks

Hi Alan and Michael,

I add a java doc[1] for the new networkaddress.cache.localhost.ttl property. Please take a look when you have time.


The change looks fine to me. There is a typo in the apidoc in InetAddress. "as as" should be "as an". Might as well correct the same mistake in the previous
paragraph also.

Since this is a spec change, it will need a CCC request. Is there a bug id for this issue?
Again, I don't know how to set cachePolicyPropFallback/negativeCachePolicyPropFallback. Any suggestion please tell me.


These are system properties. So, they are normally set on the command line with java -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=X ....

Hi Alan and Michael,

Thanks very much for your kind suggestions.

I agree that local host shouldn't follow the default caching mechanism because the IP may change frequently. And I also think making the cache time configurable is a better solution.

I am willing to make these changes including adding the local host caching mechanism into the java doc.

I have gone through the related code for InetAddress.java and InetAddressCachePolicy.java. And I think we could add a new security property networkaddress.cache.localhost.ttl to achieve the goal.

As far as I know, to add networkaddress.cache.localhost.ttl I need change jdk/src/share/lib/security/java.security*(include java.security, java.security-solaris, java.security-macosx and java.security-windows). Please correct me if I have any misunderstanding.

Here I have one question need your help:
the static block in InetAddressCachePolicy.java will first try to get cachePolicyProp/negativeCachePolicyProp from System properties. If one of the cache values is null then the value of cachePolicyPropFallback/negativeCachePolicyProp would be got from System properties. I don't know where we declare these fallback properties so I have no idea where I can do the same thing for networkaddress.cache.localhost.ttl.

Please take a look.

Thanks a lot!

Hi All,

I noticed that InetAddress.getLocalHost() uses cache to improve the performance. However the default implementation is caching local host within 5 seconds.

From the spec, networkaddress.cache.ttl should be used to control the cache behaviour and I think it is a better solution.

For example, if the networkaddress.cache.ttl is set to -1 which means always cache the local host then we can avoid unnecessary operations on getAddressesFromNameService to improve the performance.

I have made a patch for this solution, so anyone would like to take a look?

I'm not sure about this one as I suspect it will cause problems in DHCP or any environments where the host addresses changes, say moving to a different wireless network or waking up a machine after hibernation.

-Alan

That's true. We updated the spec for the caching behavior a while back, and probably should have included this exception for the local host. I agree that we shouldn't change the behavior. Perhaps, the 5 seconds could be configurable itself, but I think it should be kept separate from the main caching behavior.

- Michael.
