* irmd: Add flow authenticationDimitri Staessens12 days1-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds initial implementation of peer authentication as part of flow allocation. If credentials are not provided, this will be accepted and logged as info that the flow is not authenticated. Certificates and keys are passed as .pem files. The key file should not be encrypted, else the IRMd will open a prompt for the password. The default location for these .pem files is in /etc/ouroboros/security. It is strongly recommended to make this directory only accessible to root. ├── security │ ├── cacert │ │ └── ca.root.o7s.crt.pem │ ├── client │ │ ├── <name> │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── <name> | | ├──... | | │ ├── server │ │ ├── <name> │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── <name> | | ├── ... | | │ └── untrusted │ └── sign.root.o7s.crt.pem Trusted root CA certificates go in the /cacert directory, untrusted certificates for signature verification go in the /untrusted directory. The IRMd will load these certificates at boot. The IRMd will look for certificates in the /client and /server directories. For each name a subdirectory can be added and the credentials in that directory are used to sign the OAP header for flows at flow_alloc() on the client side and flow_accept() on the server side. These defaults can be changed at build time using the following variables (in alphabetical order): OUROBOROS_CA_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/cacert OUROBOROS_CLI_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/client OUROBOROS_SECURITY_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security OUROBOROS_SRV_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/server OUROBOROS_UNTRUSTED_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/untrusted The directories for the names can also be configured at IRMd boot using the configuraton file and at runtime when a name is created using the "irm name create" CLI tool. The user needs to have permissions to access the keyfile and certificate when specifying the paths with the "irm name create" CLI tool. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks>
* irmd: Initial Flow Allocation Protocol HeaderDimitri Staessens2025-07-231-3/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the initial version for the flow allocation protocol header between IRMd instances. This is a step towards flow authentication. The header supports secure and authenticated flow allocation, supporting certificate-based authentication and ephemeral key exchange for end-to-end encryption. id: 128-bit identifier for the entity. timestamp: 64-bit timestamp (replay protection). certificate: Certificate for authentication. public key: ECDHE public key for key exchange. data: Application data. signature: Signature for integrity/authenticity. Authentication and encryption require OpenSSL to be installed. The IRMd compares the allocation request delay with the MPL of the Layer over which the flow allocation was sent. MPL is now reported by the Layer in ms instead of seconds. Time functions revised for consistency and adds some tests. The TPM can now print thread running times in Debug builds (TPM_DEBUG_REPORT_INTERVAL) and abort processes with hung threads (TPM_DEBUG_ABORT_TIMEOUT). Long running threads waiting for input should call tpm_wait_work() to avoid trigger a process abort.
