* irmd: Revise IRMd internalsDimitri Staessens2024-02-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a full revision of the IRMd internal implementation. The registry is now a proper subcomponent managing its own internal lock (a single mutex). Some tests are added for the registry and its data structures. Some macros for tests are added in <ouroboros/test.h>. Flow allocation is now more symmetric between the client side (alloc) and server size (accept). Each will create a flow in pending state (ALLOC_PENDING/ACCEPT_PENDING) that is potentially fulfilled by an IPCP using respond_alloc and respond_accept primitives. Deallocation is split in flow_dealloc (application side) and ipcp_flow_dealloc (IPCP side) to get the flow in DEALLOC_PENDING and DEALLOCATED state. Cleanup of failed flow allocation is now properly handled instead of relying on the sanitizer thread. The new sanitizer only needs to monitor crashed processes. On shutdown, the IRMd will now detect hanging processes and SIGKILL them and clean up their fuse mountpoints if needed. A lot of other things have been cleaned up and shuffled around a bit.

* irmd: Add configuration file supportDimitri Staessens2023-03-081-5/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds initial support for configuration files using the C99 TOML parser (to be installed separately from https://github.com/cktan/tomlc99). The default location for the IRMd configuration file is /etc/ouroboros/irmd.conf. This is configurable at build time. An example file will be installed in the configuration directory with the name irmd.conf.example. Config file support can be disabled using the DISABLE_CONFIGFILE build option. There were some refactors and changes to the configuration messages and protobuf files. This works towards consolidation of protobuf C as an option for more generic handling of serialization/deserialization of various messages.

* build: Remove raptor IPCPDimitri Staessens2021-03-281-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | This removes the raptor IPCP. The code hasn't been updated for a while, and wouldn't compile. Raptor served its purpose as a PoC for Ouroboros-over-Ethernet-Layer-1, but giving the extreme niche hardware needed to run it, it's not worth maintaining this anymore.

* ipcpd: Single UDP port for the ipcpd-udp0.18.0Dimitri Staessens2021-01-031-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The UDP layer will now use a single (configurable) UDP port, default 3435. This makes it easer to allocate flows as a client from behind a NAT firewall without having to configure port forwarding rules. So basically, from now on Ouroboros traffic is transported over a bidirectional <src><port>:<dst><port> UDP tunnel. The reason for not using/allowing different client/server ports is that it would require reading from different sockets using select() or something similar, but since we need the EID anyway (mgmt packets arrive on the same server UDP port), there's not a lot of benefit in doing it. Now the operation is similar to the ipcpd-eth, with the port somewhat functioning as a "layer name", where in UDP, the Ethertype functions as a "layer name".

* ipcpd: Add congestion avoidance policiesDimitri Staessens2020-12-021-13/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds congestion avoidance policies to the unicast IPCP. The default policy is a multi-bit explicit congestion avoidance algorithm based on data-center TCP congestion avoidance (DCTCP) to relay information about the maximum queue depth that packets experienced to the receiver. There's also a "nop" policy to disable congestion avoidance for testing and benchmarking purposes. The (initial) API for congestion avoidance policies is: void * (* ctx_create)(void); void (* ctx_destroy)(void * ctx); These calls create / and or destroy a context for congestion control for a specific flow. Thread-safety of the context is the responsability of the flow allocator (operations on the ctx should be performed under a lock). ca_wnd_t (* ctx_update_snd)(void * ctx, size_t len); This is the sender call to update the context, and should be called for every packet that is sent on the flow. The len parameter in this API is the packet length, which allows calculating the bandwidth. It returns an opaque union type that is used for the call to check/wait if the congestion window is open or closed (and allowing to release locks before waiting). bool (* ctx_update_rcv)(void * ctx, size_t len, uint8_t ecn, uint16_t * ece); This is the call to update the flow congestion context on the receiver side. It should be called for every received packet. It gets the ecn value from the packet and its length, and returns the ECE (explicit congestion experienced) value to be sent to the sender in case of congestion. The boolean returned signals whether or not a congestion update needs to be sent. void (* ctx_update_ece)(void * ctx, uint16_t ece); This is the call for the sending side top update the context when it receives an ECE update from the receiver. void (* wnd_wait)(ca_wnd_t wnd); This is a (blocking) call that waits for the congestion window to clear. It should be stateless (to avoid waiting under locks). This may change later on if passing the context is needed for different algorithms. uint8_t (* calc_ecn)(int fd, size_t len); This is the call that intermediate IPCPs(routers) should use to update the ECN field on passing packets. The multi-bit ECN policy bases the value for the ECN field on the depth of the rbuff queue packets will be sent on. I created another call to grab the queue depth as fccntl is write-locking the application. We can further optimize this to avoid most locking on the rbuff.

* Add equal-cost multipath routing policyDimitri Staessens2020-02-161-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | This adds an equal-cost multipath routing policy to Ouroboros, based on Nick Aerts' code. When selected, flows will send packets over all paths with equal cost (hop count).

* ipcpd: Configure PFF from routing policyDimitri Staessens2020-02-161-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | The Packet Forwarding Function (PFF) was user-configurable using the irm tool. However, this isn't really wanted since the PFF is dictated by the routing algorithm. This moves the responsability for selecting the correct PFF from the network admin to the unicast IPCP implementation. Each routing policy now has to specify which PFF it will use.

* ipcpd: Revise UDP IPCPDimitri Staessens2019-03-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | The UDP IPCP now uses a fixed server UDP port (default 3435) for all communications. This allows passing firewalls more easily since only a single port needs to be opened. The client port can be fixed as well if needed (default random). It uses an internal eid, so the MTU of the UDP layer is reduced by 4 bytes, similar to the Ethernet IPCPs.

* ipcpd: Add IPCP over DIX EthernetDimitri Staessens2018-03-101-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an IPC Process that uses DIX Ethernet with an Ethertype that is configurable at bootstrap. This allows parallel DIX layers over the same Ethernet network with different Ethertypes (and one LLC layer). It allows jumbo frames in the future, and should avoid the problems we have with some routers not handling LLC traffic very well. The destination endpoint ID is sent as a 16 bit integer, so the maximum payload is 1498 bytes in standard Ethernet, and 8998 bytes when Jumbo frames are used. The implementation is very similar to the Ethernet LLC IPCP, so it is implemented using preprocessor macros in the single source instead of duplicating code.

* ipcpd: Use the term "layer" and deprecate "shim"Dimitri Staessens2017-12-191-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the terminology to use layer instead of DIF and deprecate the word "shim" for the IPCPs that attach to Ethernet LLC and UDP .The terminology has not yet been changed in the variable names etc. This reflects the design choices in Ouroboros to make IPCPs pure resource allocators instead of also providing an "IPC service". The Ouroboros IPCPs that attach to Ethernet and UDP implement the allocator and are thus not really shims.

* ipcpd: Deprecate gam as autonomous componentdimitri staessens2017-08-281-11/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The graph adjacency manager has been deprecated in favor of providing an external interface into the connectivity manager so that adjacencies can be controlled from the command line, user scripts or user applications. The gam and its associated policies were removed from the normal IPCP and the IRM configuration tools. The "/members" part of the RIB was deprecated. Removal of the gam means that initial connectivity based on changes in the RIB can't be provided, so some changes were required throughout the normal IPCP. The enrollment procedure was revised to establish its own connectivity. First, it gets boot information from a peer by establishing a connection to the remote enrollment component and downloading the IPCP configuratoin. This is now done using its own protocol buffers message in anticipation of deprecation of the RIB and CDAP for communication within a DIF. After the boot information is downloaded, it establishes a data transfer flow for enrolling the directory (DHT). After the DHT has enrolled, it signals the peer to that enrollment is done, and the data transfer connection is torn down. Signaling connections is done via the nbs struct, which is now passed to the connmgr, which enables control of the connectivity graph from external sources.

* build, lib, ipcpd, irmd: Add support for libgcryptdimitri staessens2017-08-091-10/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for libgcrypt. If at least version 1.7.0 of libgcrypt is present, it may be used for secure random number generation and is used for hashing in the irmd/ipcp. The hash definitions are moved to the internal hash.h header, and defined independently of the hashes that are defined as part of the directory policy for the normal IPCP. The translation is moved from the IRMd to ipcpd/ipcp.h. The bootstrap call from the IRMd expects the IPCP to return the correct hash algorithm with a dif_info struct, which is in line with the behavior of the enroll call. This also improves how some platform checks in the build system are handled.
