Thomas Eizinger de2ccbf833 fix(snownet): invalidate host candidates on reconnect (#4755)
As part of testing #4750, @jamilbk ran into an interesting but unrelated
bug. Currently, we never invalidate host candidates. However, because we
rebind our sockets, we get new ports and thus our old host candidates
are always invalid. Thus, if you have a setup where your gateway and
client are on the same subnet they end up settling on a host-host
connection. If the client then roams to a different network, we get a
new srflx IP but because we don't invalidate the host candidate, we run
into an ICE timeout and never switch over the connection.

We actually have a unit test for this but it wasn't caught because of a
bug in str0m (https://github.com/algesten/str0m/pull/504): Candidates
with the same IP but different kind were incorrectly invalidated. In our
test, we don't have a NAT and thus host == srflx candidate. Thus, in the
roaming test, we invalidated the host candidate based on the new srflx
candidate which made the connection migration work.

With the patch included, the reconnect unit test actually fails to send
the packet, confirming this theory. By invalidating all host candidates
on `reconnect`, we fix this bug.

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
