Currently, `tunnel_test` uses a rather naive approach when dispatching `Transmit`s. In particular, it checks client, gateway and relay separately whether they "want" a certain packet. In a real network, these packets are routed based on their IP. To mimic something similar, we introduce a `Host` abstraction that wraps each component: client, gateway and relay. Additionally, we introduce a `RoutingTable` where we can add and remove hosts. With these things in place, routing a `Transmit` is as easy as looking up the destination IP in the routing table and dispatching to the corresponding host. Our hosts are type-safe: client, gateway and relay have different types. Thus, we abstract over them using a `HostId` in order to know, which host a certain message is for. Following these patches, we can easily introduce multiple gateways and relays to this test by simply making more entries in this routing table. This will increase the test coverage of connlib. Lastly, this patch massively increases the performance of `tunnel_test`. It turns out that previously, we spent a lot of CPU cycles accessing "random" IPs from very large iterators. With this patch, we take a limited range of 100 IPs that we sample from, thus drastically increasing performance of this test. The configured 1000 testcases execute in 3s on my machine now (with opt-level 1 which is what we use in CI). --------- Signed-off-by: Thomas Eizinger <thomas@eizinger.io>
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.
