Three infrastructure bugs fixed: - DNS resolution never populated the identity cache because Docker overwrites /etc/resolv.conf at container start. Fix: bind-mount resolv.conf in the chaos compose template, matching the static and sidecar test configs. - Traffic generator used config-time npubs for iperf3 targets, but ephemeral nodes generate fresh keypairs at startup. Fix: share the peer churn manager's runtime npub cache with the traffic manager. - Log analysis had no discovery counters and used wrong patterns. Fix: add discovery section with correct log message matching. Also adds timestamped output directories (YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS-scenario), coord_ttl_secs override in maelstrom.yaml, FIPS_SIM_OUTPUT env var support, and maelstrom-sparse scenario for sparse topology testing.
FIPS Testing
Integration and simulation test harnesses for FIPS, using Docker containers running the full protocol stack.
Test Harnesses
static/ -- Static Docker Network
Fixed topologies with manual scripts for building, config generation, connectivity tests (ping, iperf), and network impairment (netem). Useful for deterministic debugging and validating specific topology configurations.
| Topology | Nodes | Transport | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| mesh | 5 | UDP | Sparse mesh, 6 links, multi-hop |
| chain | 5 | UDP | Linear chain, max 4-hop paths |
| mesh-public | 5+1 | UDP | Mesh with external public node |
| tcp-chain | 3 | TCP | Linear chain over TCP (port 8443) |
| rekey | 5 | UDP | Rekey integration test topology |
tor/ -- Tor Transport Integration
End-to-end Tor transport testing with Docker containers running real Tor daemons. Requires internet access for Tor bootstrapping.
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| socks5-outbound | Outbound SOCKS5 connections through Tor to clearnet peer |
| directory-mode | Inbound via HiddenServiceDir onion service (co-located) |
chaos/ -- Stochastic Simulation
Automated network testing with configurable node counts, topology algorithms (random geometric, Erdos-Renyi, chain, explicit), and fault injection (netem mutation, link flaps, traffic generation, node churn). 20 scenarios covering general stress testing, cost-based parent selection, mixed link technologies (fiber/Bluetooth/WiFi), transport-specific validation (UDP, TCP, Ethernet), and ECN/congestion testing. Scenarios are defined in YAML and executed via a Python harness that manages the full lifecycle: topology generation, Docker orchestration, fault scheduling, log collection, and analysis.
