iOS Iroh: bounded dials, hint-refresh fallback, fail-open credential refresh - #10739
lawrencecchen wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
…fallbacks Behavior the client transport must have but does not yet (red on this commit, fixed in the next): - CmxIrohClientSession: an admission barrier that never answers must fail at the dial bound and be superseded by the next attempt (cmux#9724 16.2s dial, cmux#8531 silent redial hang). - CmxIrohRegistryContextProvider: when the staleness-forced discovery refresh fails, dial with the last verified snapshot instead of refusing to dial. - CmxIrohRelayPolicyService.restore: a recently-expired last-good policy must keep its routes dialable instead of publishing a zero-route managed profile (cmux#10375). - CmxIrohRelayCredentialCoordinator.refreshIfNeeded: a failed mint with a last-good installed credential must not throw; the bounded retry loop continues in the background (cmux#10375).
…failure, fail open on credential refresh Three client-transport behavior changes for iOS dialing (cmux#9724, cmux#8531, cmux#10375): 1. Bounded dials. The admission barrier after QUIC connect (control stream open, admission frames, NAT-traversal authorize, server ready) was unbounded; a half-ready Mac that accepts the connection and never answers admission produced the 16.2s hang in the #9724 trace. The barrier now runs under the same bounded race as the connect phases and fails typed as dialTimedOut, so the redial machinery supersedes it. The per-phase deadline is injected end to end: CmxIrohClientRuntimeConfiguration.dialPhaseTimeout (default 5s) -> CmxConnectivityEngine -> every CmxIrohClientSession. 2. Hint refresh fallback. A failed or timed-out dial already marks the peer's discovery stale and forces a broker refetch on the next attempt. When that refetch itself fails, the provider now dials the last verified snapshot's hints instead of refusing to dial; the staleness mark survives so a later attempt still refetches. Broker cooldowns still propagate unchanged when no last-good snapshot exists. 3. Fail-open credential refresh. CmxIrohRelayPolicyService.restore grants a bounded expired-policy reuse grace (default 6h, injectable): the cache re-verifies the record at its final valid instant, so signature, rollback, and claim checks run unweakened and only the expiry gate is graced; the graced state reports .policyExpired without zeroing routes. Beyond the grace or on any verification rejection, restore still fails closed. CmxIrohRelayCredentialCoordinator.refreshIfNeeded no longer throws on a failed mint while a last-good credential is installed; the bounded backoff retry loop keeps refreshing in the background and the relay stays the authority on token validity.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe transport adds configurable dial-phase timeouts, bounds admission exchanges, and preserves verified discovery, credentials, and recently expired relay policies during selected refresh failures. Tests cover timeout cleanup, stale discovery recovery, credential retention, and policy verification. ChangesTransport resilience
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR bounds stalled dials and improves recovery during discovery, credential, and relay-policy failures, but the current implementation can still remove working relay connectivity before replacement credentials are available, while key timing tests remain dependent on fixed sleeps and two configuration/fallback concerns are unresolved. Merge should wait for these issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Greptile SummaryThe PR bounds Iroh connection and admission phases and adds last-good fallbacks for discovery, relay policy, and credential refresh.
Confidence Score: 4/5The PR is not yet safe to merge because foreground credential refresh can still report success after replacement fails while the installed credential is already expired. The previously reported credential-refresh defect remains: the new branch tests only for a non-nil installed credential, so expired credentials suppress permanent mint failures and allow activation to continue with relay credentials that cannot establish connectivity.

Expired credential errors are suppressed
When foreground activation finds an expired installed credential and minting its replacement fails permanently, this branch returns success solely because installedCredential is non-nil. Dialing then proceeds with an unusable credential that the relay rejects, while the background loop repeatedly retries an error that requires an authentication or authorization state change.

Inject the dial-phase clock and remove fixed-time test gates.
boundedByDialPhase uses ContinuousClock for both endpoint dialing and admission. The tests therefore depend on a 40-millisecond timeout, a 2-second watchdog, and cancellable 1-hour sleeps in the hanging endpoint and receive-stream stubs. Inject a clock or scheduler, advance it in the tests, and replace the watchdog and long sleeps with completion signals.

Preserve retry directives from fallback resolution.
Lines 203-216 suppress every non-cancellation error from resolveContext. If discovery fails with connectivity and pair-grant issuance from lastGood returns rateLimited, this branch discards the retry floor. The outer branch then returns the discovery connectivity error or an offline result. The reconnect owner cannot honor the broker retry delay and can reissue discovery on each foreground dial.
Propagate retry-directive errors from resolveContext. Suppress only errors that show that lastGood cannot authorize this peer.

…rsession spares established sessions Field dogfood on tag ibdl reported established-then-cancelled sessions (~250-300ms after establishment, ~5s after dial start) and suspected a dial-phase deadline that stays armed after its phase completes. These two behavior tests pin the required semantics and PASS against the current bounded-dial implementation, refuting that hypothesis at the client-session layer: - establishment just inside the deadline survives past the deadline (the timeout child is cancelled when the phase completes) - a superseded timed-out attempt cannot kill the next established session They stay as regression coverage while the field investigation moves to other layers.

Remove real-time synchronization from these tests.
The fixed sleeps make the expected ordering depend on CI scheduling. A delayed executor can move the delayed admission past its intended dial deadline. The fixed post-connect waits can also fail to prove the required lifecycle ordering.
Inject a controllable dial clock or a deterministic admission-completion signal. Advance that clock or signal explicitly before each assertion.
As per coding guidelines, “Test code must avoid real wall-clock dependencies” and must use an injected virtual clock or a real completion signal.

P2: The new lastGood fallback runs for every error thrown by sharedDiscover, while the two fallbacks just below it are gated on `Self.isConnectivity` (and broker cooldown). For a hard, non-connectivity failure (incompatibleContract, relayFleetMismatch, or a discovery that fails the resolver's verification), the provider now silently fails open to a stale lastGood snapshot and drops the resolver error instead of surfacing it, masking broker-declared contract or authorization changes.</violation>
<violation number="2" location="Packages/Shared/CmuxIrohTransport/Sources/CmuxIrohTransport/CmxIrohRegistryContextProvider.swift:208">
P2: The lastGood fallback reads `authoritativeDiscovery` with no age check, bypassing the 30s reuse bound enforced by `takeVerifiedDiscovery` (maximumVerifiedDiscoveryReuseAge = 30). Once a healthy-plan dial's 30s window has expired and the fresh fetch fails, the provider dials with an arbitrarily-old snapshot, weakening the documented bounded-reuse/revocation-visibility guarantee.</violation>

P1: When the authority sync returns a reset or inconsistent revision, `sharedDiscover` throws `.invalidResponse`, but this catch falls back to `authoritativeDiscovery` anyway.

<violation number="1" location="Packages/Shared/CmuxIrohTransport/Sources/CmuxIrohTransport/CmxIrohClientSession.swift:438">
P2: The admission bound only fires if the underlying operation terminates when its task is cancelled. `boundedByDialPhase` uses `withThrowingTaskGroup`, which on timeout calls `cancelAll()` and then blocks at scope exit until every child task actually completes, so a non-cooperative `RecvStream.read` (IrohLib `CmxIrohLibReceiveStream.receive` → `driver.read(sizeLimit:)`) would keep the whole phase hung — the same unbounded-admission hang this PR is meant to fix. The dial path already relied on this pattern, but extending it to the admission barrier is a new dependence on `RecvStream.read` honoring Swift task cancellation. The new tests cannot catch this: `TestHangingIrohReceiveStream`/`SlowIrohReceiveStream` hang on `Task.sleep`, which is trivially cancellable, unlike the real FFI stream. Consider verifying that IrohLib's `RecvStream.read` aborts on task cancellation (or wrapping it in a `withTaskCancellationHandler`/`try Task.checkCancellation()`-aware guard) before relying on this bound in production.</violation>
<violation number="2" location="Packages/Shared/CmuxIrohTransport/Sources/CmuxIrohTransport/CmxIrohClientSession.swift:529">
P1: When the native admission read does not cooperatively cancel, this timeout does not bound the dial: structured task-group teardown waits for `performAdmissionBarrier` after `group.cancelAll()`, so the connection is never closed and recovery cannot start. Cancel or close the underlying connection/receive stream on the timeout path rather than relying only on task cancellation.</violation>

P3: The test comment asserts the staleness mark survives so a later attempt refetches once the broker recovers, but the test never verifies it. After the fallback assertion, clear the broker error, call context(for:) again, and assert discoveryRequestCount == 2 and publicPaths == [relay]. Without it the test cannot catch the opposite regression where the provider keeps reusing the stale snapshot and never refetches on recovery.</violation>

P2: The deadline tests rely on tight real-time margins (e.g. 250ms bound vs 180ms delay, 100ms bound vs 60ms delay). On a loaded CI, Task.sleep overrun or inter-await scheduling in performAdmissionBarrier can push admission completion past the bound, so `session.connect()` throws `.dialTimedOut` and the test flakes instead of passing. Consider widening the gap (larger bound, smaller delay) or making the delay configuration derive from the bound to keep the assertions meaningful but robust.</violation>

P1: When the native admission read does not cooperatively cancel, this timeout does not bound the dial: structured task-group teardown waits for performAdmissionBarrier after group.cancelAll(), so the connection is never closed and recovery cannot start. Cancel or close the underlying connection/receive stream on the timeout path rather than relying only on task cancellation.

P2: The admission bound only fires if the underlying operation terminates when its task is cancelled. boundedByDialPhase uses withThrowingTaskGroup, which on timeout calls cancelAll() and then blocks at scope exit until every child task actually completes, so a non-cooperative RecvStream.read (IrohLib CmxIrohLibReceiveStream.receive → driver.read(sizeLimit:)) would keep the whole phase hung — the same unbounded-admission hang this PR is meant to fix. The dial path already relied on this pattern, but extending it to the admission barrier is a new dependence on RecvStream.read honoring Swift task cancellation. The new tests cannot catch this: TestHangingIrohReceiveStream/SlowIrohReceiveStream hang on Task.sleep, which is trivially cancellable, unlike the real FFI stream. Consider verifying that IrohLib's RecvStream.read aborts on task cancellation (or wrapping it in a withTaskCancellationHandler/try Task.checkCancellation()-aware guard) before relying on this bound in production.

P2: The deadline tests rely on tight real-time margins (e.g. 250ms bound vs 180ms delay, 100ms bound vs 60ms delay). On a loaded CI, Task.sleep overrun or inter-await scheduling in performAdmissionBarrier can push admission completion past the bound, so session.connect() throws .dialTimedOut and the test flakes instead of passing. Consider widening the gap (larger bound, smaller delay) or making the delay configuration derive from the bound to keep the assertions meaningful but robust.

P2: The lastGood fallback reads authoritativeDiscovery with no age check, bypassing the 30s reuse bound enforced by takeVerifiedDiscovery (maximumVerifiedDiscoveryReuseAge = 30). Once a healthy-plan dial's 30s window has expired and the fresh fetch fails, the provider dials with an arbitrarily-old snapshot, weakening the documented bounded-reuse/revocation-visibility guarantee.

P2: The new lastGood fallback runs for every error thrown by sharedDiscover, while the two fallbacks just below it are gated on Self.isConnectivity (and broker cooldown). For a hard, non-connectivity failure (incompatibleContract, relayFleetMismatch, or a discovery that fails the resolver's verification), the provider now silently fails open to a stale lastGood snapshot and drops the resolver error instead of surfacing it, masking broker-declared contract or authorization changes.

P3: The test comment asserts the staleness mark survives so a later attempt refetches once the broker recovers, but the test never verifies it. After the fallback assertion, clear the broker error, call context(for:) again, and assert discoveryRequestCount == 2 and publicPaths == [relay]. Without it the test cannot catch the opposite regression where the provider keeps reusing the stale snapshot and never refetches on recovery.

Superseded by #10759, which carries the bounded-dial and cached-hint refresh work. |
Makes iOS Iroh dialing bounded and resilient (W2-A of the control-plane redesign). Evidence: the 43 s trace in #9724 (a dial hung 16.2 s with no bound), the 15+ min silent redial hang in #8531, and the zero-route dial-plan churn in #10375.
Mechanisms
1. Bounded dials.
CmxIrohClientSessionalready bounded the public and private connect phases at 5 s, but the admission barrier after QUIC connect (open control stream, admission frames, NAT-traversal authorize, server-ready) was unbounded. A half-ready Mac that accepts the connection and never answers admission is exactly the #9724 hang. The barrier now runs under the same generalizedboundedByDialPhaserace (injectedContinuousClockdeadline, task-group cancellation, typeddialTimedOut), so one dial attempt is bounded by at most three phases. A timed-out attempt closes its connection (admission_failed), clears the session's coalesced connect task, and the next attempt redials; the peer-session redial machinery already retires wedged dials at a 10 s settle bound, giving defense in depth against a non-cooperative loser. The timeout is injected end to end:CmxIrohClientRuntimeConfiguration.dialPhaseTimeout(default 5 s) ->CmxConnectivityEngine-> everyCmxIrohClientSession, so tests shrink it through the configuration object.2. Hint refresh between attempts. A failed or timed-out dial already marks the peer's discovery stale, and the next attempt refetches the address-hint catalog from the broker. What was missing: when that forced refetch itself failed (broker outage, cooldown), the dial threw and nothing was dialed at all.
CmxIrohRegistryContextProvider.context(for:)now falls back to the last verified in-memory snapshot (authoritativeDiscovery) and dials its hints; the staleness mark survives, so a later attempt still refetches once the broker recovers. The offline signed-policy cache remains the second fallback, and the broker cooldown still propagates unchanged when no last-good snapshot exists (the existing no-fetch-storm test is preserved).Path preference is left alone: the public dial leg already hands relay and direct hints together to one native
endpoint.connect, where iroh races them internally, so relay+direct racing exists today and a reordering would change native behavior for no measured gain.3. Fail-open credential refresh (#10375). Two seams:
CmxIrohRelayPolicyService.restore(the failed-refresh fallback path used by the iOS composition) previously published a zero-routemanagedUnavailableprofile the moment the cached signed policy was pastexp, which with 300 s policy TTLs was almost always. It now grants a bounded expired-policy reuse grace (defaultExpiredPolicyReuseGrace = 6 h, injectable):CmxIrohRelayPolicyCache.loadre-verifies the record at its final valid instant, so signature, rollback, and claim checks run unweakened and only the expiry gate is graced. The graced state keeps the catalog and routes and is reported as.policyExpiredin diagnostics. Beyond the grace, or on any signature/rollback rejection, restore still fails closed. Raise relay token and policy TTL from 300s to 3600s #10731 (token+policy TTL 300 s -> 3600 s) makes this reuse window rarely needed but the grace fixes the zero-route failure mode independently.CmxIrohRelayCredentialCoordinator.refreshIfNeeded(the foreground pre-dial catch-up) no longer throws on a failed mint while a last-good credential is installed on the endpoint; it schedules the existing bounded-backoff retry loop and returns. The relay stays the authority on token validity: nothing here ever un-installs a credential, and a relay rejection surfaces as a connection failure that drives redial plus background refresh.Known-red CI gate on main.
swift-package-testshas been red onmainsince at least Aug 19 (run 32212616081):CmxConnectivityPeerSessionTests.onePeerTraceUsesOneAliasAndOneEstablishedSessionEventawaits aGatedConnectivitySessionBuilderdial that no line ever releases, so the suite deadlocks into the 300 s per-suite timeout twice per run. The fix is split into #10741 so a revert of this feature PR cannot un-fix the gate; this PR'sswift-package-testsjob stays red on that inherited hang until #10741 merges. Locally, the full package (68 suites, 639 tests) passes with that fix applied on top of this branch.Principled or hacky
Changes 1 and 2 are principled: they extend existing bounded-race and staleness seams without new state machines. Change 3 is principled in mechanism (grace is time-bounded, verification is not weakened, diagnostics stay truthful) but the 6 h default is a judgment call; it trades bounded catalog staleness (worst case: dialing a decommissioned relay URL, which fails fast and falls to other paths) against launch-to-ready minutes lost to zero-route churn.

Config-default changes to note:CmxIrohClientRuntimeConfiguration.dialPhaseTimeout(new, default 5 s, previously an unwired per-session default) andCmxIrohRelayPolicyService.expiredPolicyReuseGrace(new, default 6 h, previously effectively 0). Reverting restores strict-expiry restore behavior and the unbounded admission barrier.Dictionary: admission barrier = the authenticated frame exchange after the QUIC connection that both peers must finish before application streams open; dial phase = one bounded leg of a dial attempt (public paths, private fallback, or admission); relay policy = the broker-signed catalog of managed relay URLs a build may use; relay token = the short-lived credential that authenticates this endpoint to those relays; grace = a bounded window after signed expiry in which the last verified value is still used.
