* lib: Complete retransmission logicDimitri Staessens2020-09-255-383/+667
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This completes the retransmission (automated repeat-request, ARQ) logic, sending (delayed) ACK messages when needed. On deallocation, flows will ACK try to retransmit any remaining unacknowledged messages (unless the FRCTFLINGER flag is turned off; this is on by default). Applications can safely shut down as soon as everything is ACK'd (i.e. the current Delta-t run is done). The activity timeout is now passed to the IPCP for it to sleep before completing deallocation (and releasing the flow_id). That should be moved to the IRMd in due time. The timerwheel is revised to be multi-level to reduce memory consumption. The resolution bumps by a factor of 1 << RXMQ_BUMP (16) and each level has RXMQ_SLOTS (1 << 8) slots. The lowest level has a resolution of (1 << RXMQ_RES) (20) ns, which is roughly a millisecond. Currently, 3 levels are defined, so the largest delay we can schedule at each level is: Level 0: 256ms Level 1: 4s Level 2: about a minute.

* lib: Allow pure acknowledgment packets in FRCTDimitri Staessens2020-06-063-150/+297
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the logic to send a pure acknowledgment packet without any data to send. This needed the event filter for the fqueue, as these non-data packets should not trigger application PKT events. The default timeout is now 10ms, until we have FRCP tuning as part of fccntl. Karn's algorithm seems to be very unstable with low (sub-ms) RTT estimates. Doubling RTO (every RTO) seems still too slow to prevent rtx storms when the measured rtt suddenly spikes several orders of magnitude. Just assuming the ACK'd packet is the last one transmitted seems to be a lot more stable. It can lead to temporary underestimation, but this is not a throughput-killer in FRCP. Changes most time units to nanoseconds for faster computation. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>

* lib: Refactor FRCTDimitri Staessens2020-05-042-72/+59
| | | | | | | | | | This is a small refactor of FRCT because I found some things a bit hard to read. I tried to refactor frcti_rcv to always queue the packet, but that causes unnecessarily retaking the lock when calling queued_pdu and thus returning idx is a tiny bit faster.

* lib: Fix retransmission DRF updateDimitri Staessens2020-05-021-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The retransmission was always disabling the DRF flag. This caused problems with the loss of the first packet, which of course needs a DRF flag set. The retransmitted packet will now contain a the original DRF flag and an updated ack number.

* lib: Create an rxmwheel per flowDimitri Staessens2020-05-024-128/+149
| | | | | | | | | The single retransmission wheel caused locking headaches as the calls for different flows could block on the same rxmwheel.

* lib: Fix updating retransmission wheelDimitri Staessens2020-05-014-23/+28
| | | | | | | | | | Fixes infinite rescheduling with RTO getting lower than the timerwheel resolution. For very low RTO values we'd need a big packet buffer with the current memory allocator implementation (rdrbuff). Setting a (configurable) minimum RTO (250 us) reduces this need.

| | | | | | | | | | | There were a bunch of bugs in FRCP that urgently needed fixing. Now data QoS is usable even with heavy packet loss (within some parameters). The current RTT estimator is the IETF one. It should be updated to the improved one used in the Linux kernel once the A-timer (ACKs without data) and graceful shutdown are implemented.

* irm: Revise naming APIDimitri Staessens2020-03-152-21/+146
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This revises the naming API to treat names (or reg_name in the source) as first-class citizens of the architecture. This is more in line with the way they are described in the article. Operations have been added to create/destroy names independently of registering. This was previously done only as part of register, and there was no way to delete a name from the IRMd. The create call now allows specifying a policy for load-balancing incoming flows for a name. The default is the new round-robin load-balancer, the previous behaviour is still available as a spillover load-balancer. The register calls will still create a name if it doesn't exist, with the default round-robin load-balancer. The tools now have a "name" section, so the format is now irm name <operation> <name> ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | The client and server side were swapped.

* lib: Add per-message encryption with OpenSSLDimitri Staessens2019-08-035-17/+605
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a per-message symmetric encryption using the OpenSSL library. At flow allocation, an Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman exchange is performed to derive a shared secret, which is then hashed using SHA3-256 to be used as a key for symmetric AES-256 encryption. Each message on an encrypted flow adds a small crypto header that includes a random 128-bit Initialization Vector (IV). If the server does not have OpenSSL enabled, the flow allocation will fail with an -ECRYPT error. Future optimizations are to piggyback the public keys on the flow allocation message, and to enable per-flow encryption that maintains the context of the encryption over multiple packets and doesn't require sending IVs.

| | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a simple round-trip time estimator to FRCT. The estimate is a weighted average with deviation. The retransmission is scheduled after rtt + 2 times the deviation.
