Thomas Eizinger 36dfee2c42 refactor(connlib): explicitly enable/disable Internet Resource (#10507)
Instead of the generic "disable any kind of resource"-functionality that
connlib currently exposes, we now provide an API to only enable /
disable the Internet Resource. This is a lot simpler to deal with and
reason about than the previous system, especially when it comes to the
proptests. Those need to model connlib's behaviour correctly across its
entire API surface which makes them unnecessarily complex if we only
ever use the `set_disabled_resources` API with a single resource.

In preparation for #4789, I want to extend the proptests to cover
traffic filters (#7126). This will make them a fair bit more
complicated, so any prior removal of complexity is appreciated.

Simplifying the implementation here is also a good starting point to fix
#10255. Not implicitly enabling the Internet Resource when it gets added
should be quite simple after this change.

Finally, resolving #8885 should also be quite easy. We just need to
store the state of the Internet Resource once per API URL instead of
globally.

Resolves: #8404

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.

Reading Client logs

The Client logs are written as JSONL for machine-readability.

To make them more human-friendly, pipe them through jq like this:

cd path/to/logs  # e.g. `$HOME/.cache/dev.firezone.client/data/logs` on Linux
cat *.log | jq -r '"\(.time) \(.severity) \(.message)"'

Resulting in, e.g.

2024-04-01T18:25:47.237661392Z INFO started log
2024-04-01T18:25:47.238193266Z INFO GIT_VERSION = 1.0.0-pre.11-35-gcc0d43531
2024-04-01T18:25:48.295243016Z INFO No token / actor_name on disk, starting in signed-out state
2024-04-01T18:25:48.295360641Z INFO null

Benchmarking on Linux

The recommended way for benchmarking any of the Rust components is Linux' perf utility. For example, to attach to a running application, do:

  1. Ensure the binary you are profiling is compiled with the release profile.
  2. sudo perf record -g --freq 10000 --pid $(pgrep <your-binary>).
  3. Run the speed test or whatever load-inducing task you want to measure.
  4. sudo perf script > profile.perf
  5. Open profiler.firefox.com and load profile.perf

Instead of attaching to a process with --pid, you can also specify the path to executable directly. That is useful if you want to capture perf data for a test or a micro-benchmark.
