This commit adds a new `StartupStep` interface and its factory
`ApplicationStartup`. Such steps are created, tagged with metadata and
thir execution time can be recorded - in order to collect metrics about
the application startup.
The default implementation is a "no-op" variant and has no side-effect.
Other implementations can record and collect events in a dedicated
metrics system or profiling tools. We provide here an implementation for
recording and storing steps with Java Flight Recorder.
This commit also instruments the Spring application context to gather
metrics about various phases of the application context, such as:
* context refresh phase
* bean definition registry post-processing
* bean factory post-processing
* beans instantiation and post-processing
Third part libraries involved in the Spring application context can
reuse the same infrastructure to record similar metrics.

Prior to this commit, The "auto grow" feature in SpEL expressions only
worked for element types with a default constructor. For example, auto
grow did not work for a list of BigDecimal elements.
This commit inserts a null value in the list when no default
constructor can be found for the element type.
Closes gh-25367
Because of security and broader industry support, support for several
remoting technologies is now deprecated and scheduled for removal in
Spring Framework 6.0.
This commit deprecates the following remoting technologies:
* HTTPInvoker
* RMI
* Hessian
* JMS remoting
Other remoting technologies like EJB or JAXWS might be deprecated in the
future depending on industry support.
Closes gh-25379
This commit introduces support for R2DBC ("Reactive Relational Database
Connectivity") with custom ConnectionFactory implementations, a
functional DatabaseClient for SQL execution, transaction management, a
bind marker abstraction database initialization utilities, and
exception translation.
Closes gh-25065
This commit introduces a change in reactive transaction semantics for
cancel signals. Canceling a subscription now rolls back a reactive transaction
to achieve a deterministic transaction outcome.
Previously, cancel signals committed a transaction which could
cause partially committed transactions depending on when the cancel happened.
Prior to this commit (and the previous one), the `AntPathStringMatcher`
(inner class of `AntPathmatcher`) would compile `Pattern` instances and
use regex matching even for static patterns such as `"/home"`.
This change introduces a shortcut in the string matcher algorithm to
skip the `Pattern` creation and uses `String` equality instead.
Static patterns are quite common in applications and this change can
bring performance improvements, depending on the mix of patterns
configured in the web application.
In benchmarks (added with this commit), we're seeing +20% throughput
and -40% allocation. This of course can vary depending on the number of
static patterns configured in the application.
Closes gh-24887
Prior to this commit, the Spring Framework test suite would rely only on
"Performance" tests associated with a specific CI build. As outlined in
gh-24830, the way they're built and executed is not working well
anymore.
This commit introduces a new JMH benchmark infrastructure in the build.
The goal here is not to run those benchmarks as part of a CI build, but
rather provide a proper infrastructure for writing and locally running
micro-benchmarks when working on specific optimizations.
This commit adds and configures a Gradle JMH plugin to allow for JMH
benchmark classes in Spring Framework modules (in `src/jmh/java` of each
`spring-*` module). It's also relaxing the checkstyle rules for JMH
classes, especially around Javadoc rules: this code is not meant to
have Javadocs.
Finally, this commit links to a new Wiki page on the project GitHub
repository documenting the infrastructure and helping contributors to
run and design benchmarks.
