When AutoConnect is enabled tinc tries to connect to other nodes picking them at random.
This may be sane default behavior but it may take ages if only few nodes have
defined Address in thier config.
Proposed solution to this problem:
- Filter out nodes without known address in periodic_handler
I have added new node->status.has_known_address bool
- On update_node_udp() update this flag
In some cases - mostly when e->to == myself the prevedge is set to NULL,
causing invalid memory access. In rare cases this may lead to malformed mst
or segfaults.
If ADD_EDGE came from tinc version 1.0.x local_address.sa.sa_family is set to 0.
If it came from tinc version 1.1.x forwarded for older verion it will be 255 - AF_UNKNOWN.
When tinc gets ADD_EDGE from older versions it will allocate
new edge in protocol_edge.c:189 due to missed case in lines 149-171 where
local_address is not defined.
The information is of grate value when monitoring multiple
nodes in one window. Without it the user is forced to quit top, exit tinc
and go back to shell to refresh his memory about which node is in
what window.
When tincd setups it's network device some operating systems send router
solicitation packets from local scope ip addresses. tincd forwards it
then to his neighbors then those nodes follow the same routine fowarding it
to the next hops. I may happen that an loop will occur consuming large amount
of bandwith. Constrains: Mode = Router, Broadcast = mst.
Reproduction: ping6 -c 1 ff02::2%<tincd interface>
Sending one packet will, depending on your setup, generate about 3k packets.
Proposed solution in this commit: enable StrictSubnets, tincd will reject such
packets due to unknown subnet.
Future work: check scope of the ip address and make decisions about forwarding
based on Mode tincd is configured to work.
For some reason the edges ware removed in one direction resulting in e->reverse
point into invalid memory.
Do not insert edge into edge_weight_tree if not needed.
