ipcpd: Skip vertices with empty forwarding lists

2026-02-22T15:05:00+00:00

Fixes ECMP routing table to skip unreachable vertices with empty forwarding lists, avoiding uninitialized nhop access. Replace inner vertex list walk with bounded index loop instead of using a list_for_each to track indices (which confuses the static analyzer as it seems it can't prove the index remains valid). Remove spurious free(*dist) on ECMP success path (caller frees). Extract edge cleanup into free_edges helper in del_vertex to avoid a static analyzer false positive.

ipcpd: Fix lsdb being renamed to lspb

2026-02-18T07:00:14+00:00

A recent bulk rename of sdb -> spb (shm du buff to shm pkt buff) unintentionally renamed the lsdb. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Add struct llist for lists tracking len

2026-02-18T06:58:21+00:00

The DHT uses a struct {struct list_head, size_t len} pattern, which is also useful in the registry and other places. Having a struct llist (defined in list.h) with consistent macros for addition/deletion etc removes a lot of duplication and boilerplate and reduces the risk of inconsistent updates. The list management is now a macro-only implementation. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Refactor CMake back to in-tree CMakeLists

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

This moves the build definitions back to src/ subdirectories (CMakeLists.txt per component). Configuration and dependencies are kept out of tree. Configuration options are bundled into cmake/config/ modules. Dependencies are grouped by component (system/, crypt/, eth/, coverage/, etc.). It now consistently uses target-based commands (target_include_directories, target_link_libraries) instead of global include_directories(). Proper PRIVATE/PUBLIC visibility for executable link libraries. CONFIG_OUROBOROS_DEBUG now properly set based on being a valid debug config (not just checking the string name). It also adds OuroborosTargets export for find_package() support and CMake package config files (OuroborosConfig.cmake) for easier integration with CMake projects. The build logic now follows more idiomatic CMake practices with configuration separated from target definitions. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Replace rdrbuff with a proper slab allocator

2026-01-26T06:50:33+00:00

This is a first step towards the Secure Shared Memory (SSM) infrastructure for Ouroboros, which will allow proper resource separation for non-privileged processes. This replaces the rdrbuff (random-deletion ring buffer) PoC allocator with a sharded slab allocator for the packet buffer pool to avoid the head-of-line blocking behaviour of the rdrb and reduce lock contention in multi-process scenarios. Each size class contains multiple independent shards, allowing parallel allocations without blocking. - Configurable shard count per size class (default: 4, set via SSM_POOL_SHARDS in CMake). The configured number of blocks are spread over the number of shards. As an example: SSM_POOL_512_BLOCKS = 768 blocks total These 768 blocks are shared among 4 shards (not 768 × 4 = 3072 blocks) - Lazy block distribution: all blocks initially reside in shard 0 and naturally migrate to process-local shards upon first allocation and subsequent free operations - Fallback with work stealing: processes attempt allocation from their local shard (pid % SSM_POOL_SHARDS) first, then steal from other shards if local is exhausted, eliminating fragmentation while maintaining low contention - Round-robin condvar signaling: blocking allocations cycle through all shard condition variables to ensure fairness - Blocks freed to allocator's shard: uses allocator_pid to determine target shard, enabling natural load balancing as process allocation patterns stabilize over time Maintains existing robust mutex semantics including EOWNERDEAD handling for dead process recovery. Internal structures exposed in ssm.h for testing purposes. Adds some tests (pool_test, pool_sharding_test.c. etc) verifying lazy distribution, migration, fallback stealing, and multiprocess behavior. Updates the ring buffer (rbuff) to use relaxed/acquire/release ordering on atomic indices. The ring buffer requires the (robust) mutex to ensure cross-structure synchronization between pool buffer writes and ring buffer index publication.

lib: Add post-quantum cryptography support

2026-01-19T07:29:29+00:00

This adds initial support for runtime-configurable encryption and post-quantum Key Encapsulation Mechanisms (KEMs) and authentication (ML-DSA). Supported key exchange algorithms: ECDH: prime256v1, secp384r1, secp521r1, X25519, X448 Finite Field DH: ffdhe2048, ffdhe3072, ffdhe4096 ML-KEM (FIPS 203): ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024 Hybrid KEMs: X25519MLKEM768, X448MLKEM1024 Supported ciphers: AEAD: aes-128-gcm, aes-192-gcm, aes-256-gcm, chacha20-poly1305 CTR: aes-128-ctr, aes-192-ctr, aes-256-ctr Supported HKDFs: sha256, sha384, sha512, sha3-256, sha3-384, sha3-512, blake2b512, blake2s256 Supported Digests for DSA: sha256, sha384, sha512, sha3-256, sha3-384, sha3-512, blake2b512, blake2s256 PQC support requires OpenSSL 3.4.0+ and is detected automatically via CMake. A DISABLE_PQC option allows building without PQC even when available. KEMs differ from traditional DH in that they require asymmetric roles: one party encapsulates to the other's public key. This creates a coordination problem during simultaneous reconnection attempts. The kem_mode configuration parameter resolves this by pre-assigning roles: kem_mode=server # Server encapsulates (1-RTT, full forward secrecy) kem_mode=client # Client encapsulates (0-RTT, cached server key) The enc.conf file format supports: kex= # Key exchange algorithm cipher= # Symmetric cipher kdf= # Key derivation function digest= # Digest for DSA kem_mode= # Server (default) or client none # Disable encryption The OAP protocol is extended to negotiate algorithms and exchange KEX data. All KEX messages are signed using existing authentication infrastructure for integrity and replay protection. Tests are split into base and _pqc variants to handle conditional PQC compilation (kex_test.c/kex_test_pqc.c, oap_test.c/oap_test_pqc.c). Bumped minimum required OpenSSL version for encryption to 3.0 (required for HKDF API). 1.1.1 is long time EOL. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Add option to toggle Ouroboros logging in tests

2026-01-19T07:14:55+00:00

The test output is a bit polluted with logs originating fomr the logging system, e.g.: 23: test_bind_prog started. 23: ==16636== reg/name(DB): Add prog reg_test to name testname. 23: ==16636== reg(EE): Removing from names. 23: test_bind_prog succeeded. This adds a flag DISABLE_TEST_LOGGING that suppresses log_* output in tests to keep them clean: 23: test_bind_prog started. 23: test_bind_prog succeeded. The status is printed in CMake output: -- Ouroboros logging in test output disabled -- Ouroboros logging in test output enabled By default the flag is ON (clean test output).

build: Refactor CMake modules

2026-01-07T09:00:06+00:00

This moves the CMake build logic out of the source tree and splits it up into a more modular form. The tests now have a CMakeLists.txt file in their respective source directory. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Add build_tests target

2025-11-21T07:21:38+00:00

This intermediate target only builds all the tests, it doesn't run them. It is added for clarifying the different steps involved in testing. The 'check' target still builds AND runs the tests as before. Signed-off-by: Thijs Paelman Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders
