We refactor our continuous integration workflow with the following goals in mind:
- Run as few jobs as possible
- Have the jobs finish as fast as possible
- Have the jobs redo as little work as possible
There are only so many jobs that GitHub Actions will run in parallel.
Thus, it makes sense to not create massive matrices but instead group
things together meaningfully.
The new `test` job will:
- Run once for each crate
- Ensure that the crate compiles on its specified MSRV
- Ensure that the tests pass
- Ensure that there are no semver violations
This is an improvement to before because we are running all of these
in parallel which speeds up execution and highlights more errors at
once. Previously, tests run later in the pipeline would not get run
at all until you make sure the "first" one passes.
We also previously did not verify the MSRV of each crate, making the
setting in the `Cargo.toml` rather pointless.
The new `cross` job supersedes the existing `wasm` job.
This is an improvement because we now also compile the crate for
windows and MacOS. Something that wasn't checked before.
We assume that checking MSRV and the tests under Linux is good enough.
Hence, this job only checks for compile-errors.
The new `feature_matrix` ensures we compile correctly with certain feature combinations.
`libp2p` exposes a fair few feature-flags. Some of the combinations
are worth checking independently. For the moment, this concerns only
the executor related transports together with the executor flags but
this list can easily be extended.
The new `clippy` job runs for `stable` and `beta` rust.
Clippy gets continuously extended with new lints. Up until now, we would only
learn about those as soon as a new version of Rust is released and CI would
run the new lints. This leads to unrelated failures in CI. Running clippy on with `beta`
Rust gives us a heads-up of 6 weeks before these lints land on stable.
Fixes#2951.
Remove the concept of individual `Transport::Listener` streams from `Transport`.
Instead the `Transport` is polled directly via `Transport::poll`. The
`Transport` is now responsible for driving its listeners.
Optionally only perform dial-backs on peers that are observed at a global ip-address.
This is relevant when multiple peers are in the same local network, in which case a peer could incorrectly assume themself to be public because a peer in the same local network was able to dial them. Thus servers should reject dial-back requests from clients with a non-global IP address, and at the same time clients should only pick connected peers as servers if they are global.
Behind a config flag (enabled by default) to also allow use-cases where AutoNAT is needed within a private network.
A `ProtocolsHandler`, now `ConnectionHandler`, handels a connection, not
a protocol. Thus the name `CONNECTIONHandler` is more appropriate.
Next to the rename of `ProtocolsHandler` this commit renames the `mod
protocols_handler` to `mod handler`. Finally all combinators (e.g.
`ProtocolsHandlerSelect`) are renamed appropriately.
Allows `NetworkBehaviour` implementations to dial a peer, but instruct
the dialed connection to be upgraded as if it were the listening
endpoint.
This is needed when establishing direct connections through NATs and/or
Firewalls (hole punching). When hole punching via TCP (QUIC is different
but similar) both ends dial the other at the same time resulting in a
simultaneously opened TCP connection. To disambiguate who is the dialer
and who the listener there are two options:
1. Use the Simultaneous Open Extension of Multistream Select. See
[sim-open] specification and [sim-open-rust] Rust implementation.
2. Disambiguate the role (dialer or listener) based on the role within
the DCUtR [dcutr] protocol. More specifically the node initiating the
DCUtR process will act as a listener and the other as a dialer.
This commit enables (2), i.e. enables the DCUtR protocol to specify the
role used once the connection is established.
While on the positive side (2) requires one round trip less than (1), on
the negative side (2) only works for coordinated simultaneous dials.
I.e. when a simultaneous dial happens by chance, and not coordinated via
DCUtR, the connection attempt fails when only (2) is in place.

This commit adds a behaviour protocol that implements the AutoNAT specification.
It enables users to detect whether they are behind a NAT. The Autonat Protocol
implements a Codec for the Request-Response protocol, and wraps it in a new
Network Behaviour with some additional functionality.
