Failed WebSocket upgrade does not consume initial request `.end` part

Open adam-fowler opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Expected behavior

When a HTTP channel is configured with a NIOTypedWebSocketServerUpgrader WebSocket upgrade and a connection fails because shouldUpgrade returned nil the upgrade process should consume all parts of the initial request.

Actual behavior

The .end part is passed onto the HTTP channel pipeline, confusing HTTP request processing as the first part it receives is not a .head.

Steps to reproduce

This can be easily reproduced using the WebSocket samples that come with SwiftNIO

  1. Edit the shouldUpgrade closure of NIOTypedWebSocketServerUpgrader in NIOWebSocketServer/Server.swift:82 to be
channel.eventLoop.makeSucceededFuture(nil)`.
  1. Run NIOWebSocketServer sample
  2. Add break point on line NIOWebSocketServer/Server.swift:214 to catch HTTP part.
for try await requestPart in inbound {
  1. Run NIOWebSocketClient sample
  2. When you hit the breakpoint, check contents of requestPart.

Should the server be closing the channel at this point?

I will take a look. Thanks for filing this!

Additional information. If your shouldUpgrade function doesn't complete immediately then the .end is consumed prior to the NIOAsyncChannel is added to the pipeline. And your example websocket server channel will hang waiting for a HTTP part that never appears.
