* lib: Fix reading FUSE output on RaspbianDimitri Staessens2023-11-261-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch only fixed listing the contents on the fuse filesystem. Apparently files with st_blocks = 0 as seen as empty on Raspbian, and the FUSE read() function isn't invoked for such files. Setting st_blocks to 1 fixes that, but st_blksize is ignored for fuse. So, on raspbian the filesize is now a huge number, but at least reading the fuse filesystem works. Corrected the filesystem attributes for the IPCP output for systems that don't rely on st_blocks to assess filesize. Also set the file mode to 0644 as these are not executables.

* lib: Fix FUSE output on RaspbianDimitri Staessens2023-11-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | For some reason, 'ls' on raspbian invoked the fuse readdir() in a loop where the first call had fuse_file_info * info set to NULL and subsequent calls had info->nonseekable set to 1. Since we don't check the value the info struct, this caused an infinite loop when trying to list the contents of the fuse filesystem subdirectories of /tmp/ouroboros/.

* ipcpd: Move alloc race mitigation to common sourceDimitri Staessens2023-08-301-0/+77
| | | | | | | | | | All flow allocator code was duplicating the mitigation for a race where the IRMd response for the flow allocation with a new flow fd was arriving before the response to the flow_req_arr.

* icpdp: Fix layer information for ipcpd-udpDimitri Staessens2023-03-241-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The refactors removed the need to set the hash algorithm for the ipcpd-udp and the ipcpd-broadcast. However, the algorithm was not set at bootstrap, so the ipcpd-udp was trying to use an SHA3-256 instead of an MD5, causing flow allocation over the UDP to fail. The ipcpd-broadcast used the default, so there was no problem. Fixed by setting the correct algorithm for these ipcpds at bootstrap.

* irmd: Add configuration file supportDimitri Staessens2023-03-081-64/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ipcpd: Refactor main functionsDimitri Staessens2022-07-131-20/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The structure of main functions of the IPCPs was a bit strange with a ipcp_shutdown() call that combined waiting for a terminating signal with stopping the internal threads. This is now revised into a symmetrical design of ipcp_start(), which now includes the create response towards the IRMd. ipcp_sigwait(), which waits for a shutdown signal ipcp_stop() that then stops the internal threads. Now the main() functions of the IPCPs will make sense without checking what that ipcp_shutdown() functions actually does.

* lib: Add np1_flow_read and np1_flow_write callsDimitri Staessens2022-03-301-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reading/writing to (N + 1)-flows from the IPCP was using a raw QoS flow to bypass some functions in the ipcp_flow_read call. But this call was broken for keepalive packets. Fixing the ipcp_flow_read call for (N - 1) flows causes the IPCPs to drop 0-byte keepalive packets coming from (N + 1) client flows. >From now on, there is a dedicated call for (N + 1) reads/writes from the IPCPs that's more efficient and cleaner. The (N + 1) flow internal QoS is now also defaulted to a qos_np1 qosspec, instead of tampering with the qosspec requested by the (N + 1) client.

The address sanitizer is complaining about the the cleanup handlers in the acceptloops after the thread gets cancelled in the read(). I've tried to resolve it, but no avail.

* ipcpd: Move RIB initialization to common groundDimitri Staessens2021-06-211-5/+133
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves Resource Information Base (RIB) initialization into the ipcp_init() function, so all IPCPs initialize a RIB. The RIB not shows some common IPCP information, such as the IPCP name, IPCP state and the layer name if the IPCP is part of a layer. The initialization of the hash algorithm and layer name was moved out of the common ipcp source because IPCPs may only know this information after enrollment. Some IPCPs were not even storing this information. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>
* 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 Staessens2020-12-021-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* lib, ipcpd: piggyback ECDHE on flow allocationDimitri Staessens2020-02-251-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | The initial implementation for the ECDHE key exchange was doing the key exchange after a flow was established. The public keys are now sent allowg on the flow allocation messages, so that an encrypted tunnel can be created within 1 RTT. The flow allocation steps had to be extended to pass the opaque data ('piggybacking').

* ipcpd: Configure PFF from routing policyDimitri Staessens2020-02-161-1/+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 Staessens2019-03-181-16/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new flow_join operaiton for broadcast, which is a much safer solution than overloading destination name semantics. The internal API now also has a different IPCP_FLOW_JOIN operation. The IRMd doesn't need to query broadcasts IPCPs for the name, it can just check if an IPCP with the layer name exists.

* ipcpd: Add IPCP over DIX EthernetDimitri Staessens2018-03-101-1/+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.
