* ipcpd: Add flow-update relayDimitri Staessens2 days2-0/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds an ipcp_flow_update() call to relay opaque messages between the two IRMds (carried by FLOW_IRM_UPDATE messages), which passes it back up to the peer IRMd via ipcp_flow_update_arr(). The broadcast layer does not implement this. Needed for periodic re-keying of encrypted flows via OAP.

* lib: Harden symmetric-key rotationDimitri Staessens2 days1-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Flow crypto signalled rotation with a single phase-parity bit, so a loss burst that hid an even number of rotations went unnoticed and wedged the flow for good. Each packet now carries a small cleartext selector naming its key directly, so a receiver that falls behind recovers on the next packet instead of getting stuck. The selector also serves as the AEAD nonce and is authenticated as associated data (AAD). Key rotation moves into a new backend-agnostic keyrot module that rotates sub-keys to bound AEAD usage while preserving forward secrecy.

* irmd: Bound the OAP replay cacheDimitri Staessens2 days3-54/+263
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the linked-list cache with three timestamp-generation hash buckets, each capped at OAP_REPLAY_MAX entries. A bucket is an open-addressed hash set whose slots count as live only while slot.gen equals the bucket generation, so a stale bucket clears in O(1) by bumping its generation instead of being scanned and pruned. On overflow the cache fails closed - it rejects the header rather than evicting the oldest entry. Under flood, dropping a genuine entry would let that header be replayed, so refusing new entries is the safer degradation than evict-oldest (fail-open) behaviour.

* irmd: Add issuer and digest pinning to OAPDimitri Staessens2 days11-39/+338
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A peer certificate that verifies against the CA store could have been issued by any trusted CA, and a peer could pick any supported digest for its signature. Tighten the authentication contract with two local policies. cacert= pins the issuing CA: a peer certificate, if presented, must chain through the pinned CA. Whether a certificate is mandatory at all remains controlled by auth= alone. digest= now also pins the signature digest: a classical peer must sign with the locally configured digest, and may not omit the digest NID to fall back to the key's default digest. PQC signatures (ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) have an intrinsic digest and may be NID_undef. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>
* irmd: Specify peer authentication contractDimitri Staessens2 days7-2/+155
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OAP accepted requests and responses without a certificate even when the peer was expected to authenticate. An on-path attacker could strip the certificate and signature from a flow allocation response and substitute its own key exchange, silently downgrading the handshake to unauthenticated. Add an auth=required|optional policy to enc.conf, enforced per role: a client config requires the server to present a valid certificate, a server config requires the same from the client. Default is required for client side (https), optional server side. The client side default can be changed via OAP_CLIENT_AUTH_DEFAULT for testing. Replace the bare 'none' keyword with encryption=none, which disables encryption only: the digest and the authentication policy are kept, so authenticated but unencrypted flows can be configured. Configs using bare 'none' are now rejected. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

* lib: Update FRCP implementationDimitri Staessens2026-05-203-8/+8

It provides reliability, in-order delivery, flow control, and liveness. Note that congestion avoidance is orthogonal to FRCP and handled in the IPCP. A fixed 16-octet header, network byte order, is prefixed to every FRCP packet: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | flags | hcs | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | window | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | seqno | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | ackno | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | payload (variable) ... +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ hcs is a CRC-16-CCITT-FALSE checksum over the PCI (and the stream extension when present), verified before any flag-driven dispatch. A single packet can simultaneously carry DATA + ACK + FC + RXM by OR-ing flag bits. An optional CRC trailer covers the body on DATA when qs.ber == 0, and on every SACK packet; an optional AEAD wrap (per-flow keys) sits outermost. Flag bits (MSB-first; bits 13..15 reserved, MUST be zero): +------+--------+--------+----------------------------------------+ | Bit | Mask | Name | Meaning | +------+--------+--------+----------------------------------------+ | 0 | 0x8000 | DATA | Carries caller payload | | 1 | 0x4000 | DRF | Start of a fresh data run | | 2 | 0x2000 | ACK | ackno field valid | | 3 | 0x1000 | NACK | Pre-DRF nudge (seqno informational) | | 4 | 0x0800 | FC | window field valid (rwe advertisement) | | 5 | 0x0400 | RDVS | Rendezvous probe (window-closed) | | 6 | 0x0200 | FFGM | First Fragment of a multi-fragment SDU | | 7 | 0x0100 | LFGM | Last Fragment of a multi-fragment SDU | | 8 | 0x0080 | RXM | Retransmission | | 9 | 0x0040 | SACK | Block list follows in payload | | 10 | 0x0020 | RTTP | RTT probe / echo (payload follows) | | 11 | 0x0010 | KA | Keepalive | | 12 | 0x0008 | FIN | End of stream marker | | 13-15| -- | -- | Reserved (MUST be zero) | +------+--------+--------+----------------------------------------+ (FFGM, LFGM) encodes the fragment role of a DATA packet (SCTP-style B/E): 11=SOLE, 10=FIRST, 00=MID, 01=LAST. Each fragment carries its own seqno; Retransmission recovers fragments individually, reassembly runs at consume time. In stream mode FFGM/LFGM are unused; per-byte position is carried by the stream extension below and end-of-stream is signalled by FIN on a 0-byte DATA packet. SACK payload (FRCT_ACK | FRCT_FC | FRCT_SACK): 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | n_blocks | padding (2 octets) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | start[0] | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | end[0] | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ... n_blocks pairs total ... Each block describes a *present* (received) range strictly above the cumulative ACK in the PCI ackno. D-SACK (RFC 2883) is signalled in-band as block[0] - no flag bit, no extra framing - and consumed by the RACK reo_wnd_mult scaler (RFC 8985 sec. 7.2). RTTP payload (FRCT_RTTP only; 24 octets): 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | probe_id | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | echo_id | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | + nonce (16 octets, echoed verbatim) + | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Stream PCI extension (in_order == STREAM only; 8 octets after the base PCI on every DATA packet): 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | start | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | end | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ start, end are monotonic 32-bit byte offsets; end - start equals the on-wire payload length. Stream mode is negotiated at flow allocation; the extension is present iff stream mode is in use, never on a per-packet basis. Service modes are an orthogonal (in_order, loss, ber) vector selected at flow_alloc; the cubes above map to the axes: +----------------+---------+------+-----+-----------------------+ | Cube | in_order| loss | ber | Engaged | +----------------+---------+------+-----+-----------------------+ | qos_raw | 0 | 1 | 1 | Raw passthrough | | qos_raw_safe | 0 | 1 | 0 | Raw + CRC trailer | | qos_rt | 1 | 1 | 1 | FRCP, no FRTX, no CRC | | qos_rt_safe | 1 | 1 | 0 | FRCP, no FRTX, CRC | | qos_msg | 1 | 0 | 0 | FRCP + FRTX | | qos_stream | 2 | 0 | 0 | FRCP + FRTX, stream | +----------------+---------+------+-----+-----------------------+ in_order=0 sends raw datagrams with no PCI (UDP-equivalent); in_order=1 engages FRCP with SDU framing; in_order=2 (stream) requires loss=0 and is rejected otherwise. loss=0 engages the FRTX retransmit machinery. ber=0 appends the CRC-32 trailer; QOS_DISABLE_CRC at build time forces ber=1 for development. Encryption is a separate per-flow attribute layered as an AEAD wrap outside the FRCP packet. Heritage: delta-t (Watson 1981) supplies timer-based connection management - no SYN/FIN handshake, the DRF marker, the t_mpl / t_a / t_r timers. RINA (Day 2008) supplies the unified flow_alloc(name, qos, ...) primitive and the orthogonal QoS-cube axes. Loss detection follows TCP/QUIC practice (RFCs 2018, 2883, 6582, 6298, 8985); RTT probing is nonce-authenticated like QUIC PATH_CHALLENGE. Adds oftp, a minimal file-transfer tool over an FRCP stream flow. The client reads from stdin or --in FILE and writes through a flow_alloc(qos_stream); the server (--listen) calls flow_accept and writes to stdout or --out FILE. Both sides compute a CRC-64/NVMe over the bytes they handle and print the result. The server rejects flows whose negotiated qs.in_order != STREAM. Two FRCP knobs are exposed via env vars on either side: OFTP_FRCT_RTO_MIN fccntl FRCTSRTOMIN (ns) OFTP_FRCT_STREAM_RING_SZ fccntl FRCTSRRINGSZ (octets) The ocbr_client gains an OCBR_QOS env var to pick the cube the client uses for flow_alloc; recognised values are raw, safe, rt, rt_safe, msg, stream. Unknown values fall back to raw with a warning on stderr. Without the env set behaviour is unchanged.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A duplicating link could deliver the same alloc request twice. OAP detected the replay but still replied over the wire, so the requester saw a second flow_alloc_reply on an already-allocated flow and reg_respond_alloc tripped its PENDING-state assertion. Add EREPLAY so the OAP server can signal replays distinctly; flow_accept drops them silently. As a safety net, reg_respond_alloc warn-drops late replies instead of asserting.

Cipher and KDF use strongest-wins: the server compares ranks and selects the stronger of client vs server config. The negotiated values are sent in the response header. The client verifies the server's response meets its own minimum, which prevents downgrade attacks on the wire. KEX uses a minimum-floor check: the server extracts the client's algorithm from its public key and rejects if it ranks below the server's configured algorithm. A server configured with ML-KEM will reject all classical algorithms. Special case: for client-encap KEM, the client has already derived its key using its KDF, so the server must use the same KDF and can only reject if it is too weak. The supported_nids arrays are ordered weakest to strongest and serve as the single source of truth for ranking. Cipher ranking (weakest to strongest): aes-128-ctr, aes-192-ctr, aes-256-ctr, aes-128-gcm, aes-192-gcm, aes-256-gcm, chacha20-poly1305 KDF ranking (weakest to strongest): blake2s256, sha256, sha3-256, sha384, sha3-384, blake2b512, sha512, sha3-512 KEX ranking (weakest to strongest): ffdhe2048, prime256v1, X25519, ffdhe3072, secp384r1, ffdhe4096, X448, secp521r1, ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024, X25519MLKEM768, X448MLKEM1024 Negotiation outcomes: strong srv cipher + weak cli cipher -> use strongest weak srv cipher + strong cli cipher -> use strongest srv encryption + cli none -> server rejects srv none + cli encryption -> use client's strong srv KEX + weak cli KEX -> server rejects weak srv KEX + strong cli KEX -> succeeds wire tamper to weaker cipher -> client rejects Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

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 IRMd will now check the user UID and GID for privileged access, avoiding unprivileged users being able to disrupt all IPC (e.g. by shm_open the single pool and corrupting its metadata). Non-privileged users are now limited to a PUP (per-user pool) for sending/receiving packets. It is still created by the IRMd, but owned by the user (uid) with 600 permissions. It does not add additional copies for local IPC between their own processes (i.e. over the local IPCP), but packets between processes owned by a different user or destined over the network (other IPCPs) will incur a copy when crossing the PUP / PUP or the PUP / GSPP boundary. Privileged users and users in the ouroboros group still have direct access to the GSPP (globally shared private pool) for packet transfer that will avoid additional copies when processing packets between processes owned by different users and to the network.

* lib: Fix OpenSSL includes and explicit_bzero on OSXDimitri Staessens2026-02-132-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The include headers and NIDs are different on macOS X. It also doesn't have explicit_bzero. The crypt.h includes are now guarded to work on OS X (trying to avoid the includes by defining the OpenSSL mac header guard led to a whole list of other issues). The explicit zero'ing of buffers temporarily holding secrets has now been abstracted in a crypt_secure_clear() function defaulting to OpenSSL_cleanse, explicit_bzero (if present) or a best-effort option using a volatile pointer.

* lib: Replace rdrbuff with a proper slab allocatorDimitri Staessens2026-01-267-39/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 supportDimitri Staessens2026-01-1928-1067/+5215
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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=<algorithm> # Key exchange algorithm cipher=<algorithm> # Symmetric cipher kdf=<KDF> # Key derivation function digest=<digest> # Digest for DSA kem_mode=<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.
