Thomas Eizinger de35bb067e fix(telemetry): don't embed errors values in telemetry_event! (#7366)
Due to https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-rust/issues/702, errors which
are embedded as `tracing::Value` unfortunately get silently discarded
when reported as part of Sentry "Event"s and not "Exception"s.

The design idea of these telemetry events is that they aren't fatal
errors so we don't need to treat them with the highest priority. They
may also appear quite often, so to save performance and bandwidth, we
sample them at a rate of 1% at creation time.

In order to not lose the context of these errors, we instead format them
into the message. This makes them completely identical to the `debug!`
logs which we have on every call-site of `telemetry_event!` which
prompted me to make that implicit as part of creating the
`telemetry_event!`.

Resolves: #7343.

gateway

This crate houses the Firezone gateway.

Building

You can build the gateway using: cargo build --release --bin firezone-gateway

You should then find a binary in target/release/firezone-gateway.

Running

The Firezone Gateway supports Linux only. To run the Gateway binary on your Linux host:

  1. Generate a new Gateway token from the "Gateways" section of the admin portal and save it in your secrets manager.
  2. Ensure the FIREZONE_TOKEN=<gateway_token> environment variable is set securely in your Gateway's shell environment. The Gateway requires this variable at startup.
  3. Set FIREZONE_ID to a unique string to identify this gateway in the portal, e.g. export FIREZONE_ID=$(uuidgen). The Gateway requires this variable at startup.
  4. Now, you can start the Gateway with:
firezone-gateway

If you're running as a non-root user, you'll need the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to open /dev/net/tun. You can add this to the gateway binary with:

sudo setcap 'cap_net_admin+eip' /path/to/firezone-gateway

Ports

The gateway requires no open ports. Connections automatically traverse NAT with STUN/TURN via the relay.
