irmd: Add flow authentication

2025-08-18T18:57:23+00:00

This adds initial implementation of peer authentication as part of flow allocation. If credentials are not provided, this will be accepted and logged as info that the flow is not authenticated. Certificates and keys are passed as .pem files. The key file should not be encrypted, else the IRMd will open a prompt for the password. The default location for these .pem files is in /etc/ouroboros/security. It is strongly recommended to make this directory only accessible to root. ├── security │ ├── cacert │ │ └── ca.root.o7s.crt.pem │ ├── client │ │ ├── │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── | | ├──... | | │ ├── server │ │ ├── │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── | | ├── ... | | │ └── untrusted │ └── sign.root.o7s.crt.pem Trusted root CA certificates go in the /cacert directory, untrusted certificates for signature verification go in the /untrusted directory. The IRMd will load these certificates at boot. The IRMd will look for certificates in the /client and /server directories. For each name a subdirectory can be added and the credentials in that directory are used to sign the OAP header for flows at flow_alloc() on the client side and flow_accept() on the server side. These defaults can be changed at build time using the following variables (in alphabetical order): OUROBOROS_CA_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/cacert OUROBOROS_CLI_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/client OUROBOROS_SECURITY_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security OUROBOROS_SRV_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/server OUROBOROS_UNTRUSTED_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/untrusted The directories for the names can also be configured at IRMd boot using the configuraton file and at runtime when a name is created using the "irm name create" CLI tool. The user needs to have permissions to access the keyfile and certificate when specifying the paths with the "irm name create" CLI tool. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens

lib: Rename ipcp_info to ipcp_list_info

2023-11-29T08:57:29+00:00

The ipcp_info struct / message contains information only used for listing IPCPs, and I will reuse the ipcp_info name for general IPCP information common to all IPCPs such as name and type. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

irm: Revise naming API

2020-03-15T13:20:38+00:00

This revises the naming API to treat names (or reg_name in the source) as first-class citizens of the architecture. This is more in line with the way they are described in the article. Operations have been added to create/destroy names independently of registering. This was previously done only as part of register, and there was no way to delete a name from the IRMd. The create call now allows specifying a policy for load-balancing incoming flows for a name. The default is the new round-robin load-balancer, the previous behaviour is still available as a spillover load-balancer. The register calls will still create a name if it doesn't exist, with the default round-robin load-balancer. The tools now have a "name" section, so the format is now irm name ...
