This is all minor stuff: unreachable debug code (that should be commented-out
instead of in an 'if False:' block), unnecessary 'pass' and 'global'
statements, redundantly-initialized variables. No behavior changes. Nothing
here was actually broken, it just looked suspicious to the static analysis at
https://lgtm.com/projects/g/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/alerts/?mode=list .
This delegates the construction of the server Endpoint object to the i2p/tor
Provider, which can use the i2p/tor section of the config file to add options
which would be awkward to express as text in an endpoint descriptor string.
refs ticket:2889 (but note this merely makes room for a function to be
written that can process I2CP options, it does not actually handle such
options, so it does not close this ticket yet)
We use it for two things: to create the foolscap connection handler, and
to possibly start an .onion listener at startup.
This also updates node._common_config_sections to accept the new tor
settings written by create-node/create-introducer.
This enables an I2P-only node, which disables TCP entirely (instead of
mapping TCP to Tor, which was the only other option that
reveal-IP-address=False would allow).
closes ticket:2824
We now use::
tub.port = disabled
tub.location = disabled
instead of using an empty value (but the key still being present, since
if the key is missing entirely, that means "be automatic").
closes ticket:2816
This adds a safety flag named `[node] reveal-IP-address`, for which the
default value is True. When this is set to False, any configuration that
might reveal the node's IP address (to servers, or the external network)
will cause a PrivacyError to be raised at startup, terminating the node
before it gets a chance to betray the user's privacy. It also adds docs
and tests.
refs ticket:1010
This only catches txtorcon not being installed (which should be fixed by
doing `pip install tahoe-lafs[tor]`). It doesn't notice that the Tor
daemon is not running (which we can't detect during startup, only
afterwards, when it's harder to notify the user), in which case Tor
connections (and all connections when "tcp = tor" is enabled) will just
fail silently.
This introduces a py.test-based integration suite (currently just
containing magic-folder end-to-end tests). Also adds a tox environment
("integration") to run them.
The test setup is:
- a "flogtool gather" instance
- an Introducer
- five Storage nodes
- Alice and Bob client nodes
- Alice and Bob have paired magic-folders
Updated config docs. Added errors if we're not listening but were told
to enable storage, helper, or if we're the Introducer server.
closes ticket:2816
"gifts" are third-party references (where Alice sends Bob a reference to
Carol, and Carol lives in a different Tub than either Alice or Bob).
Tahoe doesn't currently use these, and they make it possible for e.g. a
server to provoke a client into making a connection to an IP address of
the server's choosing. If the client isn't configured otherwise, this
would use raw TCP (revealing the client's IP address) even if the
connection to the server used Tor.
A connection policy of `tcp: tor` would block this, but it seems like a
good idea to disable gifts entirely.
closes ticket:2810
Foolscap has limitations that prevent us from accepting anything but a
TCP endpoint, but that will change in the future, so make the tahoe.cfg
syntax accept an endpoint, but then reject non-TCP ones. See the ticket
for details: refs ticket:2813.
This depends upon the new `foolscap.connections.tor.socks_port(host,
port)` API in foolscap-0.12.2, so it bumps the dependency to that (the
previous commit depended upon 0.12.1, but I hadn't gotten around to
updating the dep before now).
Note that many of the Foolscap handler-creation functions are still
stubbed out, so Tahoe won't be able to honor the full range of config
syntax until foolscap support is complete.
The node now attempts to create Tor/I2P connection handlers (if the
right libraries are available), and will use them for tor/i2p FURL hints
by default. For now it only creates default handlers: there is not yet
any code to interpret the `[tor]`/`[i2p]` sections of tahoe.cfg which
would let you override that process.
The node also parses the `[connections]` section, allowing `tcp: tor` to
use Tor for all outbound TCP connections. It defaults to `tcp: tcp`, of
course.
Static storage-server connections will now honor the `connections:`
overrides in `servers.yaml`, allowing specific servers to use TCP where
they would normally be restricted to Tor.
refs ticket:2788
refs ticket:517
This adds Node._create_tub(), which knows how to make a Tub with all the
right options and connection handlers that were specified in
tahoe.cfg (the connection handlers are disabled for now, but they'll get
implemented soon).
The new Node.create_main_tub() calls it. This main Tub is used:
* to connect to the Introducer
* to host the Helper (if enabled)
* to host the Storage Server (if enabled)
Node._create_tub() is also passed into the StorageFarmBroker, which
passes it into each NativeStorageServer, to create the (separate) Tub
for each server connection. _create_tub knows about the options, and
NativeStorageServer can override the connection handlers. This way we
don't need to pass tub options or default handlers into Client,
StorageFarmBroker, or NativeStorageServer.
A number of tests create NativeStorageServer objects: these were updated
to match the new arguments. test_storage_client was simplified because
we no longer need to mock out the Tub() constructor.
This also removes the tahoe.cfg keys that would have configured the
control-port. And it deletes the logport.furl file before asking the Tub
to re-create it, because we're now using an ephemeral Tub (so we're not
persisting the private key, so the tubid will change each time).
closes ticket:2794
This can be done synchronously because we now know the port number
earlier. This still uses get_local_addresses_sync() (not _async) to do
automatic IP-address detection if the config file didn't set
tub.location or used the special word "AUTO" in it.
The new implementation slightly changes the mapping from tub.location to
the assigned location string. The old code removed all instances of
"AUTO" from the location and then extended the hints with the local
ones (so "hint1:AUTO:hint2" turns into "hint1:hint2:auto1:auto2"). The
new code exactly replaces each "AUTO" with the local hints (so that
example turns into "hint1:auto1:auto2:hint2", and a silly
"hint1:AUTO:AUTO" would turn into "hint1:auto1:auto2:auto1:auto2"). This
is unlikely to affect anybody.
This is the first step towards making node startup be synchronous: the
tub.port is entirely determined (including any TCP port allocation that
might be necessary) before creating the Tub, so the portnumber part of
FURLs can be determined earlier.
This little-used debugging feature allowed you to SSH or Telnet "into" a
Tahoe node, and get an interactive Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL) that
executed inside the context of the running process. The SSH
authentication code used a deprecated feature of Twisted, this code had
no unit-test coverage, and I haven't personally used it in at least 6
years (despite writing it in the first place). Time to go.
Also experiment with a Twisted-style "topfiles/" directory of NEWS
fragments. The idea is that we require all user-visible changes to
include a file or two (named as $TICKETNUM.$TYPE), and then run a script
to generate NEWS during the release process, instead of having a human
scan the commit logs and summarize the changes long after they landed.

I want mode="w" (i.e. text, with newline conversion) for code that
writes newline-terminated strings (which should also be human readable)
to files. I like to use things like "cat .tahoe/permutation-seed"
without seeing the seed jammed together with the next command prompt.
Previously, test_runner sometimes fails because the _node_has_started()
poller fires after the portnum file has been opened, but before it has
actually been filled, allowing the test process to observe an empty file,
which flunks the test.
This adds a new fileutil.write_atomically() function (using the usual
write-to-.tmp-then-rename approach), and uses it for both node.url and
client.port . These files are written a bit before the node is really up and
running, but they're late enough for test_runner's purposes, which is to know
when it's safe to read client.port and use 'tahoe restart' (and therefore
SIGINT) to restart the node.
The current node/client code doesn't offer any better "are you really done
with startup" indicator.. the ideal approach would be to either watch the
logfile, or connect to its flogport, but both are a hassle. Changing the node
to write out a new "all done" file would be intrusive for regular
operations.
This introduces new client and server halves to the Introducer (renaming the
old one with a _V1 suffix). Both have fallbacks to accomodate talking to a
different version: the publishing client switches on whether the server's
.get_version() advertises V2 support, the server switches on which
subscription method was invoked by the subscribing client.
The V2 protocol sends a three-tuple of (serialized announcement dictionary,
signature, pubkey) for each announcement. The V2 server dispatches messages
to subscribers according to the service-name, and throws errors for invalid
signatures, but does not otherwise examine the messages. The V2 receiver's
subscription callback will receive a (serverid, ann_dict) pair. The
'serverid' will be equal to the pubkey if all of the following are true:
the originating client is V2, and was told a privkey to use
the announcement went through a V2 server
the signature is valid
If not, 'serverid' will be equal to the tubid portion of the announced FURL,
as was the case for V1 receivers.
Servers will create a keypair if one does not exist yet, stored in
private/server.privkey .
The signed announcement dictionary puts the server FURL in a key named
"anonymous-storage-FURL", which anticipates upcoming Accounting-related
changes in the server advertisements. It also provides a key named
"permutation-seed-base32" to tell clients what permutation seed to use. This
is computed at startup, using tubid if there are existing shares, otherwise
the pubkey, to retain share-order compatibility for existing servers.
Check for the existence of any of them and if any are found raise exception which will abort the startup of the node.
This is a backwards-incompatible change for anyone who is still using old-style configuration files.
fixes#1385
both peter and I independently tried to do the same thing to eliminate the
authorized_keys file which was causing problems with the broken mac build
(c.f. #522) namely mv authorized_keys.8223{,.bak} but the node is, ahem,
let's say 'intolerant' of the trailing .bak - rather than disable the
manhole as one might expect, it instead causes the node to explode on
startup. this patch makes it skip over anything that doesn't pass the
'parse this trailing stuff as an int' test.
1. changed the node's exit-on-error behaviour. rather than logging debug and
then delegating to self for _abort_process() instead simply delegate to self
_service_startup_failed(failure) to report failures in the startup deferred
chain. subclasses then have complete control of handling and reporting any
failures in node startup.
2. replace the convoluted wx.PostEvent() glue for posting an event into the
gui thread with the simpler expedient of wx.CallAfter() which is much like
foolscap's eventually() but also thread safe for inducing a call back on the
gui thread.
in certain cases (e.g. the node.pem changed but old .furls are in private/)
the node will abort upon startup. previously it used os.abort() which in these
cases caused the mac gui app to crash on startup with no explanation.
this changes that behaviour from calling os.abort() to calling
node._abort_process(failure) which by default calls os.abort(). this allows
that method to be overridden in subclasses.
the mac app now provides and uses such a subclass of Client, so that failures
are reported to the user in a message dialog before the process exits.
this uses wx.PostEvent() with a custom event type to signal from the reactor
thread into the gui thread.
* use new decentralized directories everywhere instead of old centralized directories
* provide UI to them through the web server
* provide UI to them through the CLI
* update unit tests to simulate decentralized mutable directories in order to test other components that rely on them
* remove the notion of a "vdrive server" and a client thereof
* remove the notion of a "public vdrive", which was a directory that was centrally published/subscribed automatically by the tahoe node (you can accomplish this manually by making a directory and posting the URL to it on your web site, for example)
* add a notion of "wait_for_numpeers" when you need to publish data to peers, which is how many peers should be attached before you start. The default is 1.
* add __repr__ for filesystem nodes (note: these reprs contain a few bits of the secret key!)
* fix a few bugs where we used to equate "mutable" with "not read-only". Nowadays all directories are mutable, but some might be read-only (to you).
* fix a few bugs where code wasn't aware of the new general-purpose metadata dict the comes with each filesystem edge
* sundry fixes to unit tests to adjust to the new directories, e.g. don't assume that every share on disk belongs to a chk file.
This creates a Referenceable object that will eventually be able to publish
log events to a remote subscriber (at present all it can do is provide
version information). The FURL for this logport is written to 'logport.furl'.
In addition, if a file named 'log_gatherer.furl' is present, the given target
will be contacted and offered access to the logport. This can be used by a
centralized logging agent to subscribe to logs, e.g. from all the nodes in a
centrally-maintained storage grid. (think syslog -r, but with all the
security properties of FURLs, and permitting non-printable strings and
structured data).
Once this framework matures a bit, it will be moved into Foolscap.
The unit tests on Windows fail because trial is attempting to remove its own
log observer during teardown. This patch customizes the extant log observer
object by replacing its formatTime method with our own.
I first tried the approach of storing their log observer object and putting it
back during teardown, but it didn't work (perhaps because our node object
doesn't get a chance to do its deferred stopService behavior in time), and
anyway I generally prefer the "fail-safe", or "crash-only" design.
Rather than use separate client.pem and introducer.pem files, use 'node.pem'
for all nodes regardless of what type it is. This is slightly cleaner, but
introduces a compatibility. Users who upgrade to this change should do
'mv client.pem node.pem' to avoid generating a new certificate and thus
changing their TubID.
