Corrects the architecture on two points raised in review, while the project is still small enough to change cheaply. 1. Control and data are separated *logically*, not physically. The old reading — "nothing but control may ride on iroh" — threw away iroh's whole value and would have forced the data plane to reimplement STUN, ICE and a relay. Now both planes ride on iroh with different ALPNs and different connections, so the data plane inherits hole punching and relay fallback, while proto/ still knows nothing about packets and dataplane/ knows nothing about the control protocol. New boundary: PacketTransport / PacketLink, an authenticated unreliable datagram channel per (network, peer, protocol). tsunagi/data/1 runs the same membership handshake, then DataOpen/DataOpenAck, then QUIC datagrams. Only the smaller endpoint id dials, so exactly one link exists per pair. A plugin is handed links and never learns reachability, so the WireGuard announcement shrank to a public key: there is no address left to lie about. 2. WireGuard now runs in userspace, on boringtun's protocol state machine. No kernel module, no wg tool, no ip shell-out, no loopback proxy: the wgtool, backend and bridge modules are gone. Only creating a TUN device needs privileges, and that sits behind TunFactory, so the entire data plane — handshake, encryption, routing, address ownership — is tested with none. Address ownership is enforced rather than believed: outbound packets go to the owner of the destination address, inbound packets are dropped unless their source is the address derived for the peer that sent them. 3. A `tsunagi` binary: secret, doctor, id, up. It owns the runtime, the logging subscriber and Ctrl-C, which the library still refuses to. Also fixes a reference cycle where IrohTransport held Arc<Inner>, which kept the databases open and the directory lock held after shutdown; two storage tests caught it once the cycle existed. 81 tests pass offline with no privileges, including real IPv6 packets crossing a real WireGuard tunnel over real iroh connections. Verified by hand: two CLI processes forming a mesh both on loopback and via n0 discovery using only an endpoint id. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Testing
|
|
|
|
How to run everything is in [../README.md](../README.md). Rules for writing
|
|
tests are in [../AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md).
|
|
|
|
## Ground rules
|
|
|
|
Tests use real iroh endpoints on loopback, real handshakes, real SQLite in
|
|
per-test temporary directories, and independent agent instances. Discovery is
|
|
substitutable; **iroh, authentication, message passing and persistent storage
|
|
are not**.
|
|
|
|
The suite runs with no internet, no DHT, no public relay, no administrator
|
|
rights and no changes to OS network settings: endpoints bind `127.0.0.1:0` and
|
|
`[::1]:0`, relays are disabled, address lookup is cleared, port mapping is
|
|
disabled, and net-report probing is reduced to its minimum.
|
|
|
|
Synchronisation is always "wait for a specific event or condition under one
|
|
overall deadline" (`wait_event`, `wait_until`, 30 s). `settle()` exists only
|
|
for asserting that something did *not* happen. Ports are dynamic and
|
|
directories are isolated, so tests run in parallel.
|
|
|
|
Several library instances in one process is exactly that. It is **not** a test
|
|
of several system processes, and is not presented as one.
|
|
|
|
## What is covered
|
|
|
|
| # | scenario | file |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| 1 | deterministic identity: same name + secret ⇒ same space on different devices; a changed name or secret changes it; hostname, device key and restart do not | `tests/identity.rs` |
|
|
| 2 | four agents find each other, authenticate for real and exchange distinguishable messages; a late joiner is picked up; opaque plugin capabilities cross the control plane | `tests/multi_peer.rs` |
|
|
| 3 | an attacker who knows the address and the correct public `NetworkId` but not the secret is rejected at the handshake | `tests/authentication.rs` |
|
|
| 4 | one agent in two networks: statuses and messages do not mix; a session authenticated for one network cannot speak for the other; deactivating one leaves the other running | `tests/network_isolation.rs` |
|
|
| 5 | full stop and recreation from the same database: identity and settings survive, sessions come back automatically, a new local UDP port does not break recovery | `tests/restart.rs` |
|
|
| 6 | changing the secret through the library API: device identity survives, old sessions and messages get no access to the new space, and the retired space stays retired across a restart | `tests/restart.rs` |
|
|
| 7 | missing, corrupt and stale cache do not prevent connecting; a corrupt mandatory store is a clear error and never a fresh identity; a newer schema is refused; secrets stay out of status and `Debug` | `tests/cache_and_state.rs` |
|
|
| 8 | a dead candidate and a vanished peer do not block the others; retries are bounded and stop when the network is deactivated | `tests/resilience.rs` |
|
|
| 9 | wrong version, a message before authentication, a proof replayed on another connection, an oversized frame and a `Hello` for an inactive network are all rejected without taking the agent down | `tests/authentication.rs` |
|
|
| 10 | a second agent on the same state directory gets a clear error; after a clean stop the directory reopens; shutdown ends background tasks and refuses further work; independent agents coexist in one process | `tests/resilience.rs` |
|
|
|
|
`tests/wireguard.rs` drives the WireGuard data plane over real iroh
|
|
connections. Everything is real except the packet interface: real agents, real
|
|
control plane, real data links, real WireGuard handshakes and encryption from
|
|
boringtun, with an in-memory TUN device so none of it needs privileges. It
|
|
covers real IPv6 packets travelling both ways through a tunnel, a three-agent
|
|
mesh, a peer that sends from an address it does not own being dropped, packets
|
|
for unowned addresses being counted rather than broadcast, a departing peer
|
|
losing its tunnel, two networks keeping separate interfaces and keys, restart
|
|
keeping the WireGuard identity, shutdown removing every interface, a forged
|
|
overlay claim being rejected, and the core carrying the payload without
|
|
interpreting it.
|
|
|
|
`tests/discovery.rs` covers the discovery contract itself: a static bootstrap
|
|
candidate is enough to join, several backends compose, entries are withdrawn
|
|
when a network stops, and a forgotten network stays forgotten across a restart.
|
|
|
|
Unit tests in `src/proto/handshake.rs` cover the transcript construction
|
|
itself: role separation, channel binding, identity and network binding,
|
|
unambiguous encoding, and rejection under the wrong key.
|
|
|
|
Unit tests in `src/dataplane/wireguard/` cover key clamping against the RFC
|
|
7748 vector, overlay derivation, announcement validation including the
|
|
address-hijack attempt, interface naming, and IP header parsing against
|
|
truncated and nonsense input.
|
|
|
|
`tests/end_to_end.rs` is the vertical slice: persistent identity → network
|
|
space → discovery → iroh → authentication → message exchange.
|
|
|
|
What the default suite does **not** cover is the real TUN interface, because
|
|
that needs `CAP_NET_ADMIN`. Everything above it does run.
|
|
|
|
## Not covered, and not claimed to be
|
|
|
|
Listed in [sync-model.md](sync-model.md#future-tests): snapshots, revocations,
|
|
long partitions, hostname renames, recovery of a returning participant, NAT
|
|
traversal, relay fallback, and multi-process or multi-host deployment. None of
|
|
these are implemented, and none are marked as passing.
|
|
|
|
## Debugging a test
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
TSUNAGI_TEST_LOG=tsunagi=debug cargo test --test multi_peer -- --nocapture
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The library never installs a global subscriber; the harness opts in only when
|
|
that variable is set.
