Currently, an error returned by `Tunnel::poll_next_event` is only logged. In other words, they are never fatal. This creates a tricky to understand relationship on what kind of errors should be returned from callbacks. Because connlib is used on multiple operating systems, it has no idea how fatal a particular error is. This PR removes all of these `Result` return values with the following consequences: - For Android, we now panic when a callback fails. This is a slight change in behaviour. I believe that previously, any exception thrown by a callback into Android was caught and returned as an error. Now, we panic because in the FFI layer, we don't have any information on how fatal the error is. For non-fatal errors, the Android app should simply not throw an exception. The panics will cause the connlib task to be shut down which triggers an `on_disconnect`. - For Swift, there is no behaviour change. The FFI layer already did not support `Result`s for those callbacks. I don't know how exceptions from Swift are translated across the FFI layer but there is no change to what we had before. - For the Tauri client: - I chose to log errors on ERROR level and continue gracefully for the DNS resolvers. - We panic in case the controller channel is full / closed. That should really never happen in practice though unless we are currently shutting down the app. Resolves: #4064.
Rust development guide
Firezone uses Rust for all data plane components. This directory contains the Linux and Windows clients, and low-level networking implementations related to STUN/TURN.
We target the last stable release of Rust using rust-toolchain.toml.
If you are using rustup, that is automatically handled for you.
Otherwise, ensure you have the latest stable version of Rust installed.
