Probably due to a merge, the try_harder() function had duplicated the
rate-limiting code for detecting the sender node based on the HMAC of the
packet. This prevented this detection from running at all. The function is now
identical again to that in the 1.0 branch.
Because we don't want to keep track of that, and this will cause the node
structure from being relinked into the node tree, which results in myself
pointing to an invalid address.
When a UDP packet was received with an unknown source address/port, and if it
failed a HMAC check against known keys, it could still incorrectly assign that
UDP address to another node. This would temporarily cause outgoing UDP packets
to go to the wrong destination address, until packets from the correct address
were received again.
Before, if MTU probes failed, tinc would stop sending probes until the next
time keys were regenerated (by default, once every hour). Now it continues to
send them every PingInterval, so it recovers faster from temporary failures.
When we got a key request for or from a node we don't know, we disconnected the
node that forwarded us that request. However, especially in TunnelServer mode,
disconnecting does not help. We now ignore such requests, but since there is no
way of telling the original sender that the request was dropped, we now retry
sending REQ_KEY requests when we don't get an ANS_KEY back.
This wasn't working at all, since we didn't do HMAC but just a plain hash.
Also, verification of packets failed because it was checking the whole packet,
not the packet minus the HMAC.
If MTU probing discovered a node was not reachable via UDP, packets for it were
forwarded to the next hop, but always via TCP, even if the next hop was
reachable via UDP. This is now fixed by retrying to send the packet using
send_packet() if the destination is not the same as the nexthop.
This keeps NAT mappings for UDP alive, and will also detect when a node is not
reachable via UDP anymore or if the path MTU is decreasing. Tinc will fall back
to TCP if the node has become unreachable.
If UDP communication is impossible, we stop sending probes, but we retry if it
changes its keys.
We also decouple the UDP and TCP ping mechanisms completely, to ensure tinc
properly detects failure of either method.
This feature is not necessary anymore since we have tools like valgrind today
that can catch stack overflow errors before they make a backtrace in gdb
impossible.
During the path MTU discovery phase, we might not know the maximum MTU yet, but
we do know a safe minimum. If we encounter a packet that is larger than that
the minimum, we now send it via TCP instead to ensure it arrives. We also
allow large packets that we cannot fragment or create ICMP replies for to be
sent via TCP.
We used both rand() and random() in our code. Since it returns an int, we have
to use %x in our format strings instead of %lx. This fixes a crash under
Windows when cross-compiling tinc with a recent version of MinGW.
