Add handle_session_datagram handler replacing the 0x40 dispatch stub.
Transit nodes now decode the datagram envelope, enforce hop limits,
warm coordinate caches from SessionSetup/SessionAck/DataPacket payloads,
route via find_next_hop, and generate CoordsRequired/PathBroken error
signals on routing failure.
14 new tests covering decode errors, hop limit enforcement, local
delivery, cache warming for all session message types, single-hop and
multi-hop forwarding through live node chains, error signal generation,
and cache warming enabling subsequent routing. 375 tests pass.
Add src_addr to SessionDatagram envelope (34-byte header: msg_type +
src_addr + dest_addr + hop_limit) so transit routers can route error
signals back to the packet's originator.
Reclassify CoordsRequired/PathBroken as link-layer error signals
(plaintext inside SessionDatagram) rather than e2e encrypted session
messages. Transit routers generate these when forwarding fails and
route them to src_addr; if source is also unreachable, drop silently.
Remove redundant src_addr/dest_addr/hop_limit from SessionSetup,
SessionAck, and DataPacket (now in envelope). DataPacket header
reduced from 36 to 4 bytes. Remove PathBroken.original_src.
Fix routing loop vulnerability: gate bloom filter path on having
cached dest_coords to prevent blind forwarding between peers.
Simplify select_best_candidate() to require coordinates.
Fix gossip protocol type codes (0x11->0x20, 0x12->0x30, 0x13->0x31)
for consistency across all design docs.
All 5 design docs updated and cross-checked for consistency.
335 tests pass, zero warnings.
Add the full next-hop routing algorithm to Node::find_next_hop():
- Local delivery, direct peer, bloom filter candidates, greedy tree
routing fallback, with (link_cost, tree_distance, node_addr) ordering
- select_best_candidate() scores by peer→dest distance (not us→peer)
with self-distance check to prevent routing loops
- TreeState::find_next_hop() for greedy tree routing with progress
guarantee
- ActivePeer::link_cost() placeholder (constant 1.0) for future link
quality metrics
Add routing tests including 100-node all-pairs reachability simulation
(9900/9900 delivered, 0 loops, avg 4.0 hops, max 8).
Update fips-routing.md to reflect bloom filter routing as the primary
forwarding mechanism, with greedy tree routing as fallback during
convergence windows.
Split handlers.rs (986 lines) into handlers/ with 5 subfiles organized
by responsibility: rx_loop, encrypted, handshake, dispatch, timeout.
Split tests.rs (2350 lines) into tests/ with 4 subfiles: unit tests,
handshake integration, spanning tree convergence, and bloom filter tests.
Shared test helpers extracted to tests/mod.rs.
Visibility adjusted from pub(super) to pub(in crate::node) for handler
methods now two levels deep. Unused imports cleaned up in node/mod.rs.
All 316 tests pass, zero warnings.
When both nodes simultaneously initiate connections, each promotes its
inbound handshake first, leaving both sides with mismatched Noise sessions
and session indices. Resolve this in handle_msg2 using the existing
tie-breaker (smaller node_addr's outbound wins):
- Winner (smaller node): swaps ActivePeer to outbound session + indices
via new replace_session() method
- Loser (larger node): keeps inbound session and original their_index
(already references winner's outbound our_index from msg1)
Key insight: the loser must NOT update their_index from msg2, because the
msg2 sender_idx carries the winner's inbound index which becomes stale
after the winner swaps.
Defer outbound connection cleanup from promote_connection() to handle_msg2()
so outbound session state is available for the swap.
Verified with live two-node test over UDP in network namespaces: both nodes
connect, exchange TreeAnnounce, and converge to spanning tree within ~2s.
Multi-node integration test infrastructure with 100-node random topology
convergence test (5 topology variants). Two-phase drain loop processes
Noise IK handshakes and TreeAnnounce cascades over live UDP until
quiescence.
Fix parent ancestry propagation in handle_tree_announce: when a node's
current parent updates its tree state (e.g., learning a new root from
upstream), coordinates must be recomputed even though the parent itself
didn't change. Without this, chains longer than 2 hops fail to converge.
Fix promote_connection() to detect and clean up pending outbound
handshakes to the same peer, not just already-promoted peers. Previously,
when an inbound handshake completed while an outbound was still pending,
the outbound would linger until the 30s timeout.
Add auto-retry for failed outbound connections to auto-connect peers:
- New RetryState struct and node/retry.rs module
- Exponential backoff (default 5s base, max 5 attempts)
- Config: node.max_retries, node.base_retry_interval_secs
- check_timeouts() schedules retries, rx loop processes them
- promote_connection() clears retry state on success
- Remove unused PeerConnection retry fields (state now at Node level)
Move cleanup_stale_connection() logging to callers for context-appropriate
messages.
289 tests pass, clean build.
Noise IK parity fix:
- Pre-message hash normalizes responder static key to even parity (0x02)
so initiator and responder hash chains match regardless of actual parity
- ECDH uses shared_secret_point() + SHA-256(x-only) instead of
SharedSecret::new() which includes a parity-dependent version byte
- Fixes handshake failure for ~50% of keys when initiator has only npub
Graceful disconnect protocol (link message 0x50):
- DisconnectReason enum with 8 reason codes
- Disconnect struct with encode/decode
- send_encrypted_link_message() reusable helper
- handle_disconnect() with immediate peer removal
- send_disconnect_to_all_peers() called during Node::stop()
Cross-connection fix in handle_msg1():
- addr_to_link check now distinguishes inbound duplicates (reject) from
outbound links (cross-connection, allow and resolve via tie-breaker)
- remove_link() only clears addr_to_link if entry maps to same link_id
- Link cleanup and addr_to_link restoration in cross-connection branches
Handshake timeout cleanup:
- RX loop uses tokio::select! with 1-second interval tick
- check_timeouts() scans for stale (>30s) and failed connections
- cleanup_stale_connection() removes all associated state
Tests: 279 passing (4 new: cross-connection, stale cleanup, failed
cleanup, odd-parity handshake)
Split 2,597-line node.rs into four files under src/node/:
- mod.rs: types, struct definition, constructors, accessors, Debug impl
- lifecycle.rs: start(), stop(), peer connection initiation
- handlers.rs: RX loop, packet dispatch, message handlers, promote_connection
- tests.rs: full test suite (35 tests including integration tests)
No functional changes. All 267 tests pass, no new clippy warnings.
