- Add TUN interface detection on startup, delete existing before create
- Add proper interface deletion on shutdown via netlink
- Add TUN packet reader in separate thread with DEBUG logging
- Add graceful shutdown handling for expected "Bad address" error
- Add take_tun_device() to Node for reader ownership transfer
- Add shutdown_tun_interface() public function for cleanup by name
- Add tokio signal feature for Ctrl+C handling
- Add --wait / -w command-line flag for debugger attachment
- When --wait is set, daemon blocks after init with thread::park()
- Add ip link show output after TUN device creation for debugging
Add 7 new modules with all core data types for the mesh routing protocol:
- tree.rs: ParentDeclaration, TreeCoordinate, TreeState
- bloom.rs: BloomFilter (4KB/7 hash), BloomState with debouncing
- transport.rs: TransportId, LinkId, Link, Transport trait, LinkStats
- protocol.rs: Auth messages, TreeAnnounce, FilterAnnounce, LookupRequest/Response, SessionSetup, DataPacket
- cache.rs: CoordCache, RouteCache with LRU eviction and TTL expiry
- peer.rs: Peer lifecycle states, filter tracking, UpstreamPeer
- node.rs: Node container with resource limits
All entities have constructors, error types, and comprehensive tests (161 total).
Stub methods with todo!() for behavior to be implemented later.
No state machine logic, protocol handlers, or async code yet.
Create comprehensive architecture document covering:
- Core entities: Node, Transport, Link, Peer hierarchy
- Transport vs Link distinction (interface vs connection)
- State machines for Transport, Link, and Peer lifecycles
- Reference transport types: UDP/IP, Ethernet, WiFi, Tor
- Spanning tree and Bloom filter state requirements
- Self-healing protocol design (no ack/retry needed)
- Leaf-only operation for constrained devices
- Comprehensive sysctl-style configuration reference
Also add architecture review document capturing identified
issues to resolve before implementation begins.
Create fips-routing.md covering the complete routing architecture:
- Bloom filter design: 4KB filters, K=2 scope, event-driven updates
- Discovery protocol: LookupRequest/Response with signed proofs
- Greedy tree routing using coordinates from discovery
- Session establishment model for minimal data packet overhead
- Router coordinate caching with LRU eviction
Key design decisions:
- Leaf-only mode for constrained devices (single peer handles routing)
- Separation of discovery (find destination) from routing (deliver packets)
- Session setup pays coordinate cost once; data packets carry only addresses
- 36-byte data packet header comparable to IPv6
Update design docs README to include new document.
Move design documents from working directory into source tree:
- fips-design.md - Full protocol design specification
- spanning-tree-dynamics.md - Spanning tree protocol dynamics study
Add README index files for docs/ and docs/design/.
Implements FIPS Identity System (Section 1 of design doc):
- NodeId: 32-byte SHA-256 hash of npub, with Ord for root election
- FipsAddress: 128-bit IPv6-compatible address (0xfd prefix)
- Identity: keypair holder with sign/verify methods
- AuthChallenge/AuthResponse: challenge-response authentication
All 11 tests passing.
