lib: Check fchown result when creating ssm_pool

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

The result of fchown and fchmod weren't checked, causing some compilers to complain. Updated the test to create a PUP instead of "non-root" version of the GSPP. Removed the environment variable for the test suffix as this is not needed. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Refactor CMake back to in-tree CMakeLists

2026-02-13T08:22:29+00:00

This moves the build definitions back to src/ subdirectories (CMakeLists.txt per component). Configuration and dependencies are kept out of tree. Configuration options are bundled into cmake/config/ modules. Dependencies are grouped by component (system/, crypt/, eth/, coverage/, etc.). It now consistently uses target-based commands (target_include_directories, target_link_libraries) instead of global include_directories(). Proper PRIVATE/PUBLIC visibility for executable link libraries. CONFIG_OUROBOROS_DEBUG now properly set based on being a valid debug config (not just checking the string name). It also adds OuroborosTargets export for find_package() support and CMake package config files (OuroborosConfig.cmake) for easier integration with CMake projects. The build logic now follows more idiomatic CMake practices with configuration separated from target definitions. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Replace rdrbuff with a proper slab allocator

2026-01-26T06:50:33+00:00

This is a first step towards the Secure Shared Memory (SSM) infrastructure for Ouroboros, which will allow proper resource separation for non-privileged processes. This replaces the rdrbuff (random-deletion ring buffer) PoC allocator with a sharded slab allocator for the packet buffer pool to avoid the head-of-line blocking behaviour of the rdrb and reduce lock contention in multi-process scenarios. Each size class contains multiple independent shards, allowing parallel allocations without blocking. - Configurable shard count per size class (default: 4, set via SSM_POOL_SHARDS in CMake). The configured number of blocks are spread over the number of shards. As an example: SSM_POOL_512_BLOCKS = 768 blocks total These 768 blocks are shared among 4 shards (not 768 × 4 = 3072 blocks) - Lazy block distribution: all blocks initially reside in shard 0 and naturally migrate to process-local shards upon first allocation and subsequent free operations - Fallback with work stealing: processes attempt allocation from their local shard (pid % SSM_POOL_SHARDS) first, then steal from other shards if local is exhausted, eliminating fragmentation while maintaining low contention - Round-robin condvar signaling: blocking allocations cycle through all shard condition variables to ensure fairness - Blocks freed to allocator's shard: uses allocator_pid to determine target shard, enabling natural load balancing as process allocation patterns stabilize over time Maintains existing robust mutex semantics including EOWNERDEAD handling for dead process recovery. Internal structures exposed in ssm.h for testing purposes. Adds some tests (pool_test, pool_sharding_test.c. etc) verifying lazy distribution, migration, fallback stealing, and multiprocess behavior. Updates the ring buffer (rbuff) to use relaxed/acquire/release ordering on atomic indices. The ring buffer requires the (robust) mutex to ensure cross-structure synchronization between pool buffer writes and ring buffer index publication.
