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.

The eth and udp layer management frames/packets contain some unused
fields which were not cleared after malloc. In a future update, the
unused fields will be removed from the packets, but for now, we can
just zero these after malloc.

This removes the flow encryption option (cypher_s) from the qosspec.
The configuration file is configured in the security options (default
/etc/ouroboros/security/). For this poc, encryption can be disabled
client or server side by putting an enc.cfg file. If that file is
present in the client folder, the client will require encryption. If
that file is present on the server side, the server will require
encryption and reject non-encrypted flows.
Encryption is now configured outside of any application control.
Example: /etc/ouroboros/security/client/oping/enc.cfg exists:
irmd(II): Encryption enabled for oping.
irmd(DB): File /etc/ouroboros/security/client/oping/crt.pem does not exist.
irmd(II): No security info for oping.
irmd(DB): Generated ephemeral keys for 87474.

The server side will pass the ECRYPT to the client:
$ oping -l
Ouroboros ping server started.
Failed to accept flow: -1008
$ oping -n oping -c 1
Failed to allocate flow: -1008.
Encryption on flows can now be changed at runtime without needing to
touch/reconfigure/restart the process.
Note: The ECRYPT result is passed on via the flow allocator responses
through the IPCP (discovered/fixed some endianness issues), but the
reason for rejecting the flow can be considered N+1 information... We
may move that information up into the OAP header at some point.

This adds an IPCP that runs over UDP/IPv6. It's structured like the
eth-dix and eth-llc in that it builds two separate binaries:
ipcpd-udp4 and ipcpd-udp6. The IRM CLI is backwards compatible in that
type 'udp' will resolve to type 'udp4'.
