* lib: Bypass assertion in shm_rdrbuff0.18.1Dimitri Staessens2021-06-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This assert() causes ipcpd and subsequent irmd abort() when shutting down debug builds. Should be fixed some day when other components are more robust (frct retransmissions and routing).

* ipcpd: Move RIB initialization to common groundDimitri Staessens2021-06-211-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves Resource Information Base (RIB) initialization into the ipcp_init() function, so all IPCPs initialize a RIB. The RIB not shows some common IPCP information, such as the IPCP name, IPCP state and the layer name if the IPCP is part of a layer. The initialization of the hash algorithm and layer name was moved out of the common ipcp source because IPCPs may only know this information after enrollment. Some IPCPs were not even storing this information. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <[email protected]>
* build: Remove raptor IPCPDimitri Staessens2021-03-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This removes the raptor IPCP. The code hasn't been updated for a while, and wouldn't compile. Raptor served its purpose as a PoC for Ouroboros-over-Ethernet-Layer-1, but giving the extreme niche hardware needed to run it, it's not worth maintaining this anymore.

* ipcpd: Single UDP port for the ipcpd-udp0.18.0Dimitri Staessens2021-01-032-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The UDP layer will now use a single (configurable) UDP port, default 3435. This makes it easer to allocate flows as a client from behind a NAT firewall without having to configure port forwarding rules. So basically, from now on Ouroboros traffic is transported over a bidirectional <src><port>:<dst><port> UDP tunnel. The reason for not using/allowing different client/server ports is that it would require reading from different sockets using select() or something similar, but since we need the EID anyway (mgmt packets arrive on the same server UDP port), there's not a lot of benefit in doing it. Now the operation is similar to the ipcpd-eth, with the port somewhat functioning as a "layer name", where in UDP, the Ethertype functions as a "layer name".

* ipcpd: Add congestion avoidance policiesDimitri Staessens2020-12-023-6/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds congestion avoidance policies to the unicast IPCP. The default policy is a multi-bit explicit congestion avoidance algorithm based on data-center TCP congestion avoidance (DCTCP) to relay information about the maximum queue depth that packets experienced to the receiver. There's also a "nop" policy to disable congestion avoidance for testing and benchmarking purposes. The (initial) API for congestion avoidance policies is: void * (* ctx_create)(void); void (* ctx_destroy)(void * ctx); These calls create / and or destroy a context for congestion control for a specific flow. Thread-safety of the context is the responsability of the flow allocator (operations on the ctx should be performed under a lock). ca_wnd_t (* ctx_update_snd)(void * ctx, size_t len); This is the sender call to update the context, and should be called for every packet that is sent on the flow. The len parameter in this API is the packet length, which allows calculating the bandwidth. It returns an opaque union type that is used for the call to check/wait if the congestion window is open or closed (and allowing to release locks before waiting). bool (* ctx_update_rcv)(void * ctx, size_t len, uint8_t ecn, uint16_t * ece); This is the call to update the flow congestion context on the receiver side. It should be called for every received packet. It gets the ecn value from the packet and its length, and returns the ECE (explicit congestion experienced) value to be sent to the sender in case of congestion. The boolean returned signals whether or not a congestion update needs to be sent. void (* ctx_update_ece)(void * ctx, uint16_t ece); This is the call for the sending side top update the context when it receives an ECE update from the receiver. void (* wnd_wait)(ca_wnd_t wnd); This is a (blocking) call that waits for the congestion window to clear. It should be stateless (to avoid waiting under locks). This may change later on if passing the context is needed for different algorithms. uint8_t (* calc_ecn)(int fd, size_t len); This is the call that intermediate IPCPs(routers) should use to update the ECN field on passing packets. The multi-bit ECN policy bases the value for the ECN field on the depth of the rbuff queue packets will be sent on. I created another call to grab the queue depth as fccntl is write-locking the application. We can further optimize this to avoid most locking on the rbuff.

* lib: Reduce timerwheel CPU consumptionDimitri Staessens2020-11-252-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | The timerwheel is checked during IPC calls (fevent, flow_read), causing huge load on CPU consumption in IPCPs, since they have a lot of fevent() threads for QoS. The timerwheel will need further optimization), but for now I reduced the default tick time to 5 ms and added a boolean to check that the wheel is actually used.

* lib: Add Rendez-Vous mechanism for flow controlDimitri Staessens2020-10-113-31/+130
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the rendez-vous mechanism to handle the case where the sending window is closed and window updates get lost. If the sending window is closed, the sender side will send an RDVS every DELT_RDV time (100ms), and give up after MAX_RDV time (1 second). Upon reception of a RDVS packet, a window update is sent immediately. We can make this much more configurable later on (build options for defaults, fccntl for runtime tuning).

* lib: Block on closed flow control windowDimitri Staessens2020-10-112-18/+129
| | | | | | | | | | | If the sending window for flow control is closed, the sending application will now block until the window opens. Beware that until the rendez-vous mechanism is implemented, shutting down a server while the client is sending (with non-timed-out blocking write) will cause the client to hang indefinitely because its window will close.

* lib: Add compiler configuration for FRCPDimitri Staessens2020-10-115-93/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows configuring some parameters for FRCP at compile time, such as default values for Delta-t and configuration of the timerwheel. The timerwheel will now reschedule when it fails to create a packet, instead of setting the flow down immediately. Some new things added are options to store packets for retransmission on the heap, and using non-blocking calls for retransmission. The defaults do not change the current behaviour.

* lib: Complete retransmission logicDimitri Staessens2020-09-255-383/+667
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This completes the retransmission (automated repeat-request, ARQ) logic, sending (delayed) ACK messages when needed. On deallocation, flows will ACK try to retransmit any remaining unacknowledged messages (unless the FRCTFLINGER flag is turned off; this is on by default). Applications can safely shut down as soon as everything is ACK'd (i.e. the current Delta-t run is done). The activity timeout is now passed to the IPCP for it to sleep before completing deallocation (and releasing the flow_id). That should be moved to the IRMd in due time. The timerwheel is revised to be multi-level to reduce memory consumption. The resolution bumps by a factor of 1 << RXMQ_BUMP (16) and each level has RXMQ_SLOTS (1 << 8) slots. The lowest level has a resolution of (1 << RXMQ_RES) (20) ns, which is roughly a millisecond. Currently, 3 levels are defined, so the largest delay we can schedule at each level is: Level 0: 256ms Level 1: 4s Level 2: about a minute.

* lib: Allow pure acknowledgment packets in FRCTDimitri Staessens2020-06-063-150/+297
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the logic to send a pure acknowledgment packet without any data to send. This needed the event filter for the fqueue, as these non-data packets should not trigger application PKT events. The default timeout is now 10ms, until we have FRCP tuning as part of fccntl. Karn's algorithm seems to be very unstable with low (sub-ms) RTT estimates. Doubling RTO (every RTO) seems still too slow to prevent rtx storms when the measured rtt suddenly spikes several orders of magnitude. Just assuming the ACK'd packet is the last one transmitted seems to be a lot more stable. It can lead to temporary underestimation, but this is not a throughput-killer in FRCP. Changes most time units to nanoseconds for faster computation. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <[email protected]>

| | | | | | | | | | This is a small refactor of FRCT because I found some things a bit hard to read. I tried to refactor frcti_rcv to always queue the packet, but that causes unnecessarily retaking the lock when calling queued_pdu and thus returning idx is a tiny bit faster.

* lib: Fix retransmission DRF updateDimitri Staessens2020-05-021-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The retransmission was always disabling the DRF flag. This caused problems with the loss of the first packet, which of course needs a DRF flag set.

* lib: Create an rxmwheel per flowDimitri Staessens2020-05-024-128/+149

| | | | | | | | | | Fixes infinite rescheduling with RTO getting lower than the timerwheel resolution.

* irm: Revise naming APIDimitri Staessens2020-03-152-21/+146
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This revises the naming API to treat names (or reg_name in the source) as first-class citizens of the architecture. This is more in line with the way they are described in the article. Operations have been added to create/destroy names independently of registering. This was previously done only as part of register, and there was no way to delete a name from the IRMd. The create call now allows specifying a policy for load-balancing incoming flows for a name. The default is the new round-robin load-balancer, the previous behaviour is still available as a spillover load-balancer. The register calls will still create a name if it doesn't exist, with the default round-robin load-balancer. The tools now have a "name" section, so the format is now irm name <operation> <name> ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a per-message symmetric encryption using the OpenSSL library. At flow allocation, an Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman exchange is performed to derive a shared secret, which is then hashed using SHA3-256 to be used as a key for symmetric AES-256 encryption. Each message on an encrypted flow adds a small crypto header that includes a random 128-bit Initialization Vector (IV). If the server does not have OpenSSL enabled, the flow allocation will fail with an -ECRYPT error. Future optimizations are to piggyback the public keys on the flow allocation message, and to enable per-flow encryption that maintains the context of the encryption over multiple packets and doesn't require sending IVs.
