* packaging(aur): fix namcap issues in PKGBUILD
Changes made to fix namcap issues:
1. Added `dbus` to dependencies - the fips binary links against
libdbus-1.so.3, so dbus must be listed as a runtime dependency.
2. Disabled split debug package - added `!debug` to options to prevent
creating a broken -debug package. The debug package was generating
symlinks with incorrect paths, causing namcap errors.
3. Made config file world-readable - changed fips.yaml permissions from
0600 to 0644.
Remaining namcap warnings (can be ignored):
- "Unused shared library '/usr/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2'" - False
positive. The dynamic linker is required for the binary to run.
- "Dependency libgcc detected and implicitly satisfied" / "gcc-libs
may not be needed" - These are contradictory. The binaries do link
to libgcc_s.so.1, and gcc-libs provides it. Keeping an explicit
dependency is correct.

In-memory time-series history on the daemon: fast ring (1s × 3600)
plus slow ring (1m × 1440) per metric, covering node-level gauges
(mesh size, tree depth, peer count, active sessions), counters
(parent switches, aggregate bytes/packets in/out), loss rate, and
seven per-peer metrics keyed by NodeAddr (srtt_ms, loss_rate,
bytes_in/out, packets_in/out, ecn_ce). The slow ring is produced by
downsampling the fast ring on minute boundaries with Last / Sum /
Mean aggregation chosen per metric type.
Missing data is first-class. New peers back-fill NaN so every ring
shares a time axis with the node rings; peers absent from a tick
sample NaN (keeps alignment, shows as a visible gap); counter metrics
emit NaN on decrease (new link_stats baseline after reconnect) so
deltas aren't polluted. Peers are evicted 24h after last contact.
Downsampling is NaN-aware: mean skips NaN, all-NaN slow windows stay
NaN. Each history window always returns its full span at the chosen
density (1m / 10m / 1h / 24h), front-padded with NaN when the ring
hasn't yet accumulated enough samples, so switching between windows
feels like zooming in or out rather than clipping to whatever has
arrived. NaN serializes to JSON null via a custom serializer.
Control socket queries:
- show_stats_list enumerates registered metrics plus scope field and
peer_retention_seconds.
- show_stats_history returns one metric's series for a given window
and granularity; accepts optional peer (npub) for per-peer metrics.
- show_stats_all_history returns every metric in a single round trip;
accepts optional peer to fetch all seven per-peer metrics.
- show_stats_peers enumerates tracked peers with lifecycle metadata.
- show_stats_history_all_peers returns one metric across all peers
for grid rendering.
- show_status carries short sparkline windows for the dashboard so
the client can render without extra fetches.
fipsctl gains `stats list`, `stats peers`, and `stats history
<metric>` with `--peer` (hostname or npub) and `--plot` for a Unicode
block sparkline. Plot header reports sample count, granularity,
window, and gap count; NaN renders as a blank cell.
fipstop dashboard grows inline sparklines (peer count, mesh size,
aggregate bytes in/out). A new Graphs tab stacks every metric as an
independent mini plot with its own autoscaled range; each plot uses
btop's braille 2×4 filled-area algorithm (25-entry lookup table
packing two samples per character, per-row gradient coloring for the
characteristic btop vertical-band look, rounded borders with embedded
titles). Three modes are cycled with `m`: Node (node-level stack),
MetricByPeer (small-multiples grid, 1 / 2 / 3 columns by terminal
width), PeerByMetric (existing stack scoped to one peer). `n` / `N`
cycles the mode-specific selector (metric or peer), a selector row
shows the current choice, and Graphs-tab refreshes re-fetch
show_stats_peers so selectors track peer churn. Up / Down scrolls
the stack, Left / Right cycles the window, `g` jumps to the tab.
Implements IDEA-0084 (TASK-2026-0062).
Extend the fipsctl control query interface with visibility into internal
state critical for protocol security auditing, mesh troubleshooting, and
operational monitoring.
New command:
fipsctl show identity-cache
Lists every node identity cached by the daemon (learned from DNS
resolution, peer handshakes, sessions, and static config). Shows
npub, IPv6 address, display name, and LRU age alongside the
configured cache capacity.
Extended queries:
show peers — Noise session counters (send_counter, highest received
counter) for rekey urgency assessment. Per-peer replay suppression
and consecutive decrypt failure counts for active attack detection.
Session index visibility for hijack analysis. Rekey lifecycle
state (in_progress, draining, K-bit epoch).
show sessions — Handshake resend count during establishment for
connectivity debugging. Rekey and session health fields
(session_start, K-bit, coords warmup, drain state) when
established.
show cache — Individual coordinate cache entries with tree
coordinates, depth, path MTU, and age. Enables route-level
debugging by showing exactly which destinations have cached
routes and via what tree path. Renames the top-level count
field from "entries" to "count" for clarity.
show routing — Pending discovery lookups expanded from count to
per-target detail (attempt number, age, last sent). Pending
TUN packet queue depth for backpressure visibility. Connection
retry state per peer (retry count, next attempt, auto-reconnect
flag).
Updates fipstop to match the revised show_cache and show_routing
response schemas. Updates README monitoring section with the complete
fipsctl command list.

- Correct the transport matrix: UDP, TCP, and Tor work on Windows
(previously shown as unsupported). Add an OpenWrt column with BLE
disabled due to missing libdbus on the target.
- Mention the `.fips` DNS resolver and outbound LAN gateway in the
Features list, and add the gateway bullet under What works today.
- Reframe the Linux DNS resolver setup: the `.deb` package now
auto-configures the available backend; the manual resolvectl
snippet is shown for tarball and manual installs.
- Expand the Examples section to list all three example deployments
(Nostr relay sidecar, K8s sidecar, macOS WireGuard sidecar) rather
than only the macOS one.
- Refresh Project Structure to include the `fips-gateway` binary,
the full packaging list (macOS .pkg, Windows ZIP, OpenWrt ipk, AUR
in addition to Debian and systemd tarball), and the examples
directory.
- Mention macOS `.pkg` and Windows ZIP/service packaging in the
packaging line of What works today.
Adds entries for master-only work since 0.2.0 that wasn't captured
yet: Windows and macOS platform support, the outbound LAN gateway
and its packaging, the macOS WireGuard sidecar example, multi-backend
.fips DNS configuration, the node.log_level config, the Nostr UDP
hole punch protocol proposal doc, the MMP report interval retune,
the info-to-debug log demotion, the rekey msg1 gate fix, and the
fipstop ratatui try_init change.
Fixed entries only cover bugs present in 0.2.0. Fixes against
master-only code (BLE reliability work, new sidecar port mapping)
are rolled into their respective Added entries rather than listed
as Fixed, per Keep a Changelog conventions.
Captures three fixes landed on maint since 0.2.0 that were not yet
recorded: the bloom-filter greedy-tree fallback fix, auto-connect
reconnect on graceful disconnect (#60), and fipsctl mesh-address
rejection (#61).
When a user passes an fd00::/8 address as the endpoint for a udp,
tcp, or ethernet transport, the CLI previously echoed success while
the daemon silently failed the bind with EAFNOSUPPORT. Mesh ULAs are
destinations inside the mesh, not reachable transport endpoints.
fipsctl now validates the address up front and prints a clear error
with examples, exiting 1 before the control socket call. Other
transports (tor) are not inspected since they legitimately accept
non-IP endpoints.
Covered by inline tests for bare/bracketed/with-port ULA syntaxes,
non-ULA IPv6, IPv4, hostnames, and the transport filter.
Fixes#61.
handle_disconnect() called remove_active_peer without scheduling a
reconnect, orphaning auto-connect peers on a clean upstream shutdown.
Mirror the pattern from the other three peer-removal paths (link-dead,
decrypt failure, peer restart) which all schedule reconnect after
removal.
Adds test_disconnect_schedules_reconnect regression test that verifies
handle_disconnect populates retry_pending for an auto-connect peer.
Visibility of handle_disconnect bumped to pub(in crate::node) for
direct unit-test access.
Fixes#60.
Exposed by the rustfmt toolchain-pin fix now that rustfmt runs under
the pinned 1.94.1 toolchain in CI. Mechanical formatting changes:
- src/node/mod.rs: collapse EthernetTransport::new let-binding onto
one line (fits within width limit)
- src/node/tests/handshake.rs: reorder imports (super::* after
specific import) and expand two assert_eq! calls to multi-line form
CI format check was failing because the pinned toolchain
rust-toolchain.toml overrides the `dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable +
rustfmt` action installation — rustup installs rustfmt onto the
stable channel, but when cargo fmt runs inside the repo, rustup
honors the 1.94.1 pin and does an on-demand install that pulls only
rustc/cargo/rust-std.
Declaring components in rust-toolchain.toml ensures the on-demand
install of the pinned toolchain includes rustfmt.
Replace the resolvectl-only fips-dns.service with a detection script
that configures whichever DNS resolver is available:
1. systemd dns-delegate (systemd >= 258, declarative drop-in)
2. systemd-resolved via resolvectl (most systemd distros)
3. dnsmasq (standalone)
4. NetworkManager with dnsmasq plugin
5. Warning with manual instructions if none found
Service reloads are non-fatal — config is written and the backend
is recorded even if the reload fails, preventing state file cleanup
issues under set -e.
Teardown reads the recorded backend from /run/fips/dns-backend and
reverses the configuration, or cleans up all possible backends if
the state file is missing.
Includes a Docker-based test harness (testing/dns-resolver/test.sh)
covering all five backends across Debian 12, Debian 13, Fedora,
and bare systems.
Fixes#52.
Gate platform-specific code behind cfg attributes and add full Windows
support: TUN device via wintun, TCP control socket on localhost:21210,
Windows Service lifecycle (--install-service/--uninstall-service/--service),
CI build and test matrix, and packaging with ZIP builder and PowerShell
service management scripts.
Key changes:
- Cargo.toml: move tun/libc/rtnetlink behind cfg(unix); add wintun and
windows-service dependencies for Windows
- upper/tun.rs: wintun-based TUN implementation with netsh configuration
for IPv6 address, MTU, and fd00::/8 routing
- control/mod.rs: split into unix_impl/windows_impl; Windows uses TCP on
localhost:21210 with shared connection handler
- bin/fips.rs: refactor main() into run_daemon() accepting a shutdown
signal; add Windows Service support via windows-service crate
- transport/udp/socket.rs: platform-gated modules; Windows uses
tokio::net::UdpSocket (kernel drop count unavailable, returns 0)
- transport/ethernet: gate to cfg(unix); add Windows stub types
- config: platform-conditional default paths (socket, hosts) for Windows
- CI: add windows-latest to build matrix and test-windows job with
cargo-nextest
- packaging/windows: build-zip.ps1, install-service.ps1,
uninstall-service.ps1, and package-windows.yml workflow
- README/docs: Windows build instructions, service management, and
control socket platform differences
Linux and macOS behavior is unchanged.
The log analysis matched "proof verified, caching route" but the
actual log message is "Discovery succeeded, proof verified, route
cached", causing discovery succeeded to show 0 in all sim runs.
Replace fixed 1KB bloom filters with variable-size filters (512B-32KB)
that adapt to each node's position in the spanning tree.
Core changes:
- Internal storage: Vec<u8> → Vec<u64> for word-level operations
- Delta compression: XOR diff with word-level RLE, sequence-based
NACK protocol for full retransmit recovery
- Size conversion: fold (large→small) and duplicate (small→large)
with auto-converting merge for mixed-size filter combination
- Native-size storage: peer filters stored at advertised size for
full-resolution routing queries, converted only for outgoing filter
- Adaptive sizing: outgoing fill ratio drives step-up/step-down
between size classes with hysteresis (20%/5% thresholds)
- Filter size decoupled from FMP negotiation: announced dynamically
in filter updates, bit 7 and TLV field 1 removed from handshake
Wire format: FilterAnnounce gains flags byte (delta bit), base_seq
field, RLE-compressed payload. New FilterNack message (0x21) for
out-of-sequence delta recovery.
Redesign shared-media transport framing now that XX replaces IK:
- Ethernet: unified 4-byte header [type][flags][length:2 LE] for all
frame types, effective MTU now if_mtu - 4
- Beacons: strip 32-byte pubkey (34 → 5 bytes), identity learned from
XX handshake msg2/msg3 instead of beacon
- BLE: remove pre-handshake pubkey_exchange() and cross-probe
tie-breaker, both unnecessary with XX
- Discovery: support anonymous connections (pubkey_hint: None) with
address-based dedup for shared-media transports
- Post-handshake identity hooks in handle_msg2/msg3 for self-detection
and future allow/deny list filtering (IDEA-0047)
Drop origin_coords from LookupRequest — unused since reverse-path
routing became primary. Saves 2+16*depth bytes per request.
Wire up min_mtu: populated from TUN MTU config (default 1280) at
origination. Transit nodes skip peers whose link MTU is below the
request's min_mtu requirement. path_mtu on LookupResponse was
already wired (transit min() applied).
Add TLV extension to LookupRequest (after min_mtu) and
LookupResponse (after proof). Uses same TlvEntry format as
negotiation. Transit nodes forward TLV bytes verbatim.
- Delete PROTOCOL_NAME_IK, PROTOCOL_NAME_XK and all IK/XK methods
- Remove Ik/Xk variants from NoisePattern enum
- Rename XX methods to drop xx_ prefix (sole pattern)
- Rename HandshakeMessageType variants from NoiseIKMsg1/NoiseIKMsg2
to Msg1/Msg2, add Msg3 variant (0x03) for XX 3-message flow
- Fix doc comments with correct XX message sizes and descriptions
- Fix stale SessionSetup/SessionAck handshake payload size comments
Replace the 3-message XK handshake with XX for FSP session establishment.
XX requires no prior knowledge of the peer's static key — the responder's
identity is revealed in msg2, the initiator's in msg3.
Key changes:
- session.rs: XX initiator/responder, post-handshake identity verification
using x-only key comparison (parity-independent for npub compatibility),
negotiation payload in msg2/msg3 (FSP version [0,0], features=0)
- Rekey: switched from XK to XX for FSP rekey handshake
- timeout.rs: suppress msg1 resends when target peer is already promoted,
preventing cross-connection session mismatch from duplicate handshakes
- Test template: discovery backoff 3s and handshake timeout 10s for
faster convergence in integration tests
- Integration test timeouts restored to 45s (ping) and 60s (rekey)
Squashed commits:
- Switch FSP handshake from Noise XK to XX
- Fix integration test convergence by reducing discovery backoff
- Fix cross-connection session mismatch from msg1 resend
- Fix FSP identity verification parity mismatch
Replace the 2-message IK handshake with a 3-message XX handshake for
FMP link establishment. XX requires no prior knowledge of the peer's
static key — both identities are revealed during the handshake
(responder in msg2, initiator in msg3). This is the foundation for
the forklift upgrade that enables rolling protocol upgrades.
Changes:
- Noise XX state machine alongside IK/XK (8 unit tests)
- Protocol negotiation payload codec: format byte, packed version
min/max, 64-bit feature bitfield, TLV extensions (11 unit tests)
- FMP wire format version 0→1, msg3 header/builder, TCP stream framing
- FMP handshake switched to XX: PeerConnection 3-message flow,
handle_msg1 simplified (no identity), handle_msg2 sends msg3 and
promotes initiator, new handle_msg3 promotes responder with
restart/rekey/cross-connection detection
- Rekey handshake switched to XX with negotiation payload hash chain
fix (decrypt-and-discard in complete_rekey_msg2/msg3)
- Negotiation payload in msg2/msg3 (FMP version [1,1], features=0)
- Debug logging for handshake promotion paths
- Integration test convergence timeouts adjusted for extra round-trip
Squashed commits:
- Add Noise XX state machine alongside IK/XK
- Add protocol negotiation payload codec
- FMP wire format prep: version 1, msg3 header support
- Switch FMP handshake from Noise IK to XX
- Increase convergence timeouts for XX 3-message handshake
- Fix negotiation hash chain desync in rekey handshake
Add a documented macOS sidecar setup under examples so gateway traffic can be routed through a local Docker WireGuard sidecar for development and testing. Generate persistent FIPS and WireGuard key material on first run and keep those local runtime artifacts out of version control.
The entrypoint HTTP server was binding port 80 but gateway-test.sh
curls port 8000. Maint already had 8000; the wrong port was introduced
during a merge to master.
macOS platform:
- Platform-native TUN interface management with shutdown pipe
- Raw Ethernet transport with macOS socket backend (socket_macos.rs)
- EthernetTransport and TransportHandle::Ethernet ungated from Linux-only
- macOS .pkg packaging (build-pkg.sh, launchd plist, uninstall script)
- CI: macOS build and unit test jobs; x86_64 cross-compiled from
macos-latest via rustup target add x86_64-apple-darwin
Gateway feature flag:
- New opt-in `gateway` Cargo feature activates optional `rustables` dep
- `pub mod gateway` and `Config.gateway` gated behind the feature so
macOS builds never pull in Linux-only nftables bindings
- `fips-gateway` bin has `required-features = ["gateway"]`
- All Linux/OpenWrt/AUR packaging passes `--features gateway`
CI / packaging:
- package-linux, package-macos, package-openwrt now trigger on push to
master/maint/next and on pull requests; release uploads remain tag-gated
- Bloom filter routing fix: fall through to tree routing when no candidate
is strictly closer
- MMP intervals: raise MIN to 1s / MAX to 5s with 5-sample cold-start phase
Add fips-gateway binary to CI artifact and Docker build. Systemd
service unit with After=fips.service dependency and security
hardening. Debian and AUR package entries.
OpenWrt packaging: procd init script managing dnsmasq forwarding,
proxy NDP, RA route advertisements for the virtual IP pool, and a
global IPv6 prefix on br-lan to work around Android suppressing AAAA
queries on ULA-only networks. Sysctl config for IPv6 forwarding.
Gateway enabled by default in OpenWrt config. Ethernet transport
enabled by default.
Default gateway config section (commented out) in common fips.yaml.
Add fips-gateway binary: a separate daemon that allows unmodified LAN
hosts to reach FIPS mesh destinations via DNS-allocated virtual IPs
and kernel nftables NAT.
Gateway DNS resolver: forwarding proxy on [::]:53 that intercepts
.fips queries, forwards to daemon resolver (localhost:5354), allocates
virtual IPs from pool, returns AAAA records. Always sends AAAA upstream
regardless of client query type, returns proper NODATA for non-AAAA.
Virtual IP pool: fd01::/112 pool with state machine lifecycle
(Allocated → Active → Draining → Free), TTL-based reclamation,
conntrack integration for session tracking.
NAT manager: nftables DNAT/SNAT rules via rustables netlink API,
per-mapping rule lifecycle, fips0 masquerade for LAN client source
address rewriting.
Network setup: local pool route, proxy NDP for virtual IPs on LAN
interface, IPv6 forwarding validation.
Control socket at /run/fips/gateway.sock with show_gateway and
show_mappings queries. fipstop Gateway tab with pool summary gauge
and mappings table.
Gateway config section in fips.yaml with pool CIDR, LAN interface,
DNS upstream, TTL, and grace period settings.
Design doc at docs/design/fips-gateway.md.
Integration test (testing/static/scripts/gateway-test.sh): three
containers verifying DNS resolution, end-to-end HTTP, NAT state,
TTL expiration, SERVFAIL fallback, and clean shutdown.
The accept_connections gate in handle_msg1() was at the top of the
function, dropping all inbound msg1 packets on transports that don't
accept new connections (e.g. UDP holepunch). This blocked rekey
handshakes on established links, causing repeated "dual rekey
initiation" log floods.
Move the gate below the existing-peer classification so it only
blocks truly new inbound handshakes from unknown addresses. Rekey
and restart msg1s for established peers are now processed normally.
