环境

操作系统：Win11
jdk：corretto-11 （亚马逊）
xnio: 3.8.0Final

起因

在使用xnio库创建Channel时，需要用到对各系统“黑洞”的路径。而undertow中，引入了xnio库。

xnio创建channel的代码：

后出现报错信息：Exception in thread “main” java.io.IOException: Invalid file path。

解决方案

在 jvm 参数中，添加-Djdk.io.File.enableADS=true即可。

原因分析

首先介绍NUL: 这种形式，是Windows下特有的，被称为：alternative data streams (ADS)。ADS的解释如下：

  Since NT 3.1, the NTFS file system has supported multiple data-streams for files. There has never been built-in support for viewing or manipulating these additional streams, but the Windows API functions include support for them with a special file syntax: Filename.ext:StreamName. Even Win9x machines can access the alternative data streams of files on any NTFS volume they have access to, e.g., through a mapped drive. Because the Scripting.FileSystemObject and many other libraries call the CreateFile API behind the scenes, even scripts have been able to access alternative streams quite easily (although enumerating the existing streams has always been tricky).

通过查看jdk源码后，发现在java.io.File中，有判断文件是否合法的函数：isInvalid()，当前版本的源
码如下：

if (isInvalid()) {
    throw new IOException("Invalid file path");
}

final boolean isInvalid() {
    PathStatus s = status;
    if (s == null) {
        s = (this.path.indexOf('\u0000') < 0) ? PathStatus.CHECKED:PathStatus.INVALID;
    }
    return s == PathStatus.INVALID;
}

切换JDK至Oracle或DragonWell后，不会报错。因此猜想是该函数在各JDK中的实现不一致。
Oraclejdk11的判定规则，参考以下isInvalid()。（corretto-11在 commit 8278356: Improve file 之前也是如此实现的）

corretto-11在 commit 8278356: Improve file 之后，isInvalid()源码如下：

/**
     * The FileSystem object representing the platform's local file system.
     */
private static final FileSystem fs = DefaultFileSystem.getFileSystem();

final boolean isInvalid() {
    PathStatus s = status;
    if (s == null) {
        // 委托给FileSystem的实现来判定是否合法
        s = fs.isInvalid(this) ? PathStatus.INVALID : PathStatus.CHECKED;
        status = s;
    }
    return s == PathStatus.INVALID;
}

@Override
public boolean isInvalid(File f) {
    if (f.getPath().indexOf('\u0000') >= 0)
        return true;

    // 本次分析的关键点
    if (ENABLE_ADS)
        return false;

    // Invalid if there is a ":" at a position greater than 1, or if there
    // is a ":" at position 1 and the first character is not a letter
    String pathname = f.getPath();
    int lastColon = pathname.lastIndexOf(":");

    // Valid if there is no ":" present or if the last ":" present is
    // at index 1 and the first character is a latter
    if (lastColon < 0 ||
        (lastColon == 1 && isLetter(pathname.charAt(0))))
        return false;

    // Invalid if path creation fails
    Path path = null;
    try {
        path = sun.nio.fs.DefaultFileSystemProvider.theFileSystem().getPath(pathname);
        return false;
    } catch (InvalidPathException ignored) {
    }

    return true;
}

从corretto-11 项目的测试用例 OpenNUL.java 来看，NUL:此种ADS的路径格式是否合法，是与WinNTFileSystem#_ENABLE_ADS_这个标识有关的，以下为源码中对_ENABLE_ADS_标识的说明：

// Whether to enable alternative data streams (ADS) by suppressing
// checking the path for invalid characters, in particular ":".
// ADS support will be enabled if and only if the property is set and
// is the empty string or is equal, ignoring case, to the string "true".
// By default ADS support is disabled.
private static final boolean ENABLE_ADS;
static {
    String enableADS = GetPropertyAction.privilegedGetProperty("jdk.io.File.enableADS");
    if (enableADS != null) {
        ENABLE_ADS = "".equals(enableADS) || Boolean.parseBoolean(enableADS);
    } else {
        ENABLE_ADS = false;
    }
}
