Bump rand (0.8→0.10), rtnetlink (0.14→0.20), tun (0.7→0.8),
simple-dns (0.9→0.11), socket2 (0.5→0.6), and criterion (0.5→0.8).
Migrate all rand call sites: thread_rng()→rng(), gen()→random(),
gen_range()→random_range(), RngCore→Rng trait. Work around secp256k1
0.30 requiring rand 0.8 by generating random bytes directly and
constructing SecretKey from slice.
Migrate rtnetlink to builder-based API: LinkSetRequest replaced with
LinkUnspec builder + change(), RouteAddRequest replaced with
RouteMessageBuilder.
Remove bloom benchmark (criterion 0.8 incompatible with old harness
config).
Add a Unix domain socket interface for querying node state at runtime.
A spawned tokio task accepts connections and communicates with the main
event loop via mpsc/oneshot channels, keeping all Node access
single-threaded.
Includes:
- src/control/ module with socket lifecycle, JSON protocol, and 11
query handlers (status, peers, links, tree, sessions, bloom, mmp,
cache, connections, transports, routing)
- Separate fipsctl binary for CLI queries (fipsctl show <command>)
- ControlConfig in node configuration (enabled, socket_path)
- Integration into the main select! event loop
Under high-throughput forwarding, the kernel default 212KB receive
buffer overflows, silently dropping ~11% of UDP datagrams at transit
nodes. Add configurable recv_buf_size and send_buf_size to UdpConfig
(default 2MB each) using socket2 for pre-bind buffer configuration.
Startup log now reports actual buffer sizes granted by the kernel.
Requires net.core.rmem_max >= 2097152 on the host for the full 2MB
to take effect; otherwise the kernel silently clamps.
Add DNS responder that resolves <npub>.fips queries to FipsAddress IPv6
addresses. Resolution is pure computation (npub → NodeAddr → IPv6) with
identity cache priming as a side effect, enabling subsequent TUN packet
routing to non-peer destinations.
- New dns.rs module: resolve_fips_query(), handle_dns_packet() using
simple-dns crate, run_dns_responder() async UDP server loop
- DnsConfig in config.rs: enabled, bind_addr (127.0.0.1), port (5354)
- Fourth select! arm in RX event loop for DNS identity channel
- DNS task spawn/abort in node lifecycle
- 10 new tests (420 total)
Add examples/two-node-udp/ with standalone walkthrough for testing two
FIPS nodes in Linux network namespaces over a veth pair. Includes
network diagram, config files, DNS routing setup, and troubleshooting.
- Convert transport.rs to module directory (transport/mod.rs + transport/udp.rs)
- Add packet channel types for transport→Node communication:
- ReceivedPacket struct with transport_id, remote_addr, data, timestamp
- PacketTx/PacketRx type aliases for tokio mpsc channels
- packet_channel() constructor function
- Add UdpConfig to config.rs (enabled, bind_addr, mtu)
- Implement UdpTransport with async lifecycle:
- start_async(): binds socket, spawns receive loop
- stop_async(): aborts receive task, closes socket
- send_async(): sends packet with MTU validation
- discover(): returns empty (peer config is node-level)
- Update lib.rs with new re-exports
- Add tokio net and time features to Cargo.toml
All 185 tests pass.
- New icmp.rs module: builds RFC 4443 compliant ICMPv6 Type 1 Code 0
responses with proper checksum and packet validation
- TUN reader/writer separation: fd duplication allows independent I/O
on separate threads
- TunWriter services mpsc queue for multiple future packet sources
- Reader now sends ICMPv6 errors for unroutable packets instead of
silently dropping them
- 171 tests passing
- 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
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.
