Each interval computes: - Skew (mean−median): queuing delay buildup - Variance (MAD/mean): delay variability - Frequency (sign-change ratio): oscillation pattern - Loss rate from NAK counts Links are bottlenecked when skew > C_S AND (var > C_H OR loss > P_L), then grouped by delay statistics similarity using union-find. In EDPF mode, correlated links have effective capacity reduced by 0.7x.

While budget > 0 or the heuristic fires, the scheduler routes to the highest-quality link. The two signals are OR-combined so heuristic-only deployments (ffmpeg, libsrt) keep the existing behaviour while hint-aware encoders gain exact coverage of IDR / SPS / PPS frames that the 5-packet-burst heuristic misses. --- src/config.rs | 108 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/sender/mod.rs | 1 + src/sender/packet_handler.rs | 18 ++++-- 3 files changed, 122 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/config.rs b/src/config.rs index 28710ea..1fc4516 100644 --- a/src/config.rs +++ b/src/config.rs @@ -56,6 +56,14 @@ pub struct DynamicConfig { quality_enabled: Arc, exploration_enabled: Arc, rtt_delta_ms: Arc, + /// Packets still to be treated as critical, supplied out-of-band by an + /// encoder that knows which frames are IDR/SPS/PPS.

Machine clients (belacoder, future agents, exporters) need request/response correlation, typed errors, and schema-discoverable methods. One message per line, one JSON-RPC 2.0 envelope per message. Requests without an id are notifications, used for the hot-path mark_critical hint so encoders don't block on a round-trip when firing a keyframe. Methods: set_mode, set_quality, set_exploration, set_rtt_delta, get_status, get_stats, mark_critical. subscribe / unsubscribe names are reserved for a later streaming upgrade. Hand-rolled rather than pulling in jsonrpsee or jsonrpc-core: the spec is one page, srtla_send's control listener is a blocking std::thread (not tokio), and deps are intentionally lean here.

Swap to a dedicated UDP sidecar. The encoder sends a 5-byte datagram (magic byte + window_ms) that opens a deadline-based critical window. Loopback UDP shares the network stack with SRT data, so the window opens tightly ordered against the packets it protects. The scheduler OR-combines the window with the packet-size heuristic as before. Operator enables with --priority-bind ADDR:PORT. get_status exposes windows_received and malformed_datagrams counters. Full wire-format docs in docs/KEYFRAME_PRIORITY.md. BREAKING: mark_critical RPC removed from the JSON protocol. Encoders that wired the old hint-count API must switch to the UDP sidecar. --- docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md | 25 ++---- docs/KEYFRAME_PRIORITY.md | 55 ++++++++++++ src/config.rs | 97 ++++++++------------- src/control.rs | 63 ++++++-------- src/lib.rs | 1 + src/main.rs | 21 ++++- src/priority.rs | 159 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/sender/mod.rs | 3 +- src/sender/packet_handler.rs | 12 +-- 9 files changed, 308 insertions(+), 128 deletions(-) create mode 100644 docs/KEYFRAME_PRIORITY.md create mode 100644 src/priority.rs diff --git a/docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md b/docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md index da2ccfb..5cf6588 100644 --- a/docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md +++ b/docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md @@ -26,10 +26,10 @@ Error (standard JSON-RPC codes): ## Notifications -Requests without `id` are notifications. srtla_send processes them and sends no response.

Exposes per-link series (up, RTT, window, in_flight, NAKs, bitrate, quality_multiplier), aggregate counters, scheduling mode as a gauge, and priority-sidecar counters. Enabled via --metrics-bind ADDR:PORT. Hand-rolled over tokio::net::TcpListener with no axum/hyper/tower pulled in. Supports GET /metrics and GET / only; anything else 404s.

Subscriptions let a client register for a topic and receive server push events as JSON-RPC notifications on the same connection. Topics: - stats — StatsSnapshot pushed once per second alongside the existing housekeeping update - priority.window — pushed on each accepted sidecar datagram with at_ms, window_ms, deadline_ms The sync std::thread Unix-socket listener couldn't push unsolicited messages on the same connection. Replaced it with a tokio UnixListener whose per-connection task tokio::selects between reads and outbound push-channel writes. Stdin stays blocking — no subscription support there, subscribe/unsubscribe from stdin returns method not found. SubscriptionHub fans out by topic into per-connection mpsc senders; full channels drop events (backed-up subscriber never blocks the producer) and closed channels are pruned lazily.

charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit new module sender/selection/classifier.rs implementing a three-tier delay cascade with entering/leaving hysteresis (3x ratio). classifies each connection as weak based on: - rtt vs the chosen tier (best=40%, safe=50%, max=60% of estimated budget; budget = max(longest_rtt*3, 500ms) capped at 5s), - bandwidth share vs an enter/leave threshold pair derived from fair share (0.25/N enter, 0.75/N leave). constants picked conservative for first soak; real-world observation may suggest retuning. shadow mode: classifier runs on the housekeeping tick and surfaces weak/reason/share/threshold per link plus selected_delay_ms / estimated_max_delay_ms via the existing get_stats json. selection is unchanged — admission gate wires in after a soak window. --- src/sender/mod.rs | 21 +- src/sender/selection/classifier.rs | 369 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/sender/selection/mod.rs | 1 + src/stats.rs | 71 +++++- 4 files changed, 456 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/sender/selection/classifier.rs diff --git a/src/sender/mod.rs b/src/sender/mod.rs index 46dee34..e8d394d 100644 --- a/src/sender/mod.rs +++ b/src/sender/mod.rs @@ -30,7 +30,13 @@ use packet_handler::{ drain_packet_queue, flush_all_batches, handle_srt_packet, handle_uplink_packet, };

Several ideas were prototyped and then removed before they reached this branch tip; those are listed under "Explored and removed" so the commit history makes sense. The version in `Cargo.toml` is still `3.0.0`, so this work is unreleased. + +## Scheduling and link selection + +The runtime still has exactly two scheduling modes: `classic` (capacity based, matches the original C behaviour) and `enhanced` (quality aware, the default). Enhanced selection gained an admission gate on top of its quality scoring: + +* **Weak-link admission gate.** A classifier (`sender/selection/classifier.rs`) marks a link weak when its RTT busts the chosen delay tier or its throughput share falls below an entering threshold, with enter/leave hysteresis. Enhanced selection excludes weak links from ranking when at least one healthy link can carry the packet, and falls back to the full pool when every link is weak (better to send on a weak link than drop the packet). +* **Congestion-aware skip.** Each connection carries a `cc_backing_off` flag set by the per-link CC controller. Enhanced selection treats a backing-off link as an extra weak signal and skips it under the same fallback rule. +* **Critical-packet priority.** During a keyframe (IDR / SPS / PPS) the scheduler routes packets to the highest-quality link. Two triggers feed this: a heuristic burst detector (`sender/keyframe.rs`, which declares a burst after 5 consecutive max-MTU 1316-byte packets), and an explicit critical window opened by an upstream encoder (see the priority sidecar below). + +## RTT estimation + +* **Kalman filter as the primary RTT estimator.** `RttTracker` now uses a 2-state Kalman filter (value, velocity) as its smooth RTT source, replacing the old smooth/fast EWMA pair. The filter tracks trends naturally, so its velocity term doubles as spike detection. A new `kalman.rs` module holds the filter and its RTT preset. +* **Dual-window minimum tracking and a sample filter.** RTT keeps a fast and a slow minimum window plus a small min-sample filter for stability, exposed through `LinkStats`. +* EWMA is retained only for the symmetric `rtt_avg_delta`. The asymmetric (fast-down, slow-up) EWMA variant exists in the tree but is `#[cfg(test)]` only, so it does not compile into the production binary. + +## Per-link congestion control + +* **`link_cc` controller** (`sender/selection/link_cc.rs`). A per-connection state machine (`CcState`: Bootstrap, Climbing, Holding, BackingOff, Drain) with a `ClimbMode` sub-state (Hai, FastRecovery, Normal) that produces a `target_bps` soft cap from age-bucketed RTT EWMA, RTT variance, a sliding-window loss permille, and observed bitrate. +* **Current wiring.** Only the `BackingOff` state influences selection today (via the `cc_backing_off` flag described above). The `target_bps` soft cap is computed and exported for telemetry but is not yet applied as a rate cap in the data path. + +## Transport and egress + +* **Pluggable uplink binder.** A new `UplinkBinder` trait makes egress steering injectable. `SourceIpBinder` keeps the existing source-IP bind (Linux source routing); a callback binder lets a library consumer steer the raw fd (for example Android `Network.bindSocket`) while keeping `IpAddr` as the uplink identity. The binder is threaded through sender startup, connection creation, and reconnect so the same binding is re-applied on reconnect. +* **Adaptive batch-send regimes.** `batch_send.rs` picks a batch threshold per connection from observed bitrate: LowActivity (under 500 kbps, threshold 4), Normal (500 kbps to 5 Mbps, threshold 16), HighLoad (above 5 Mbps, threshold 32). The 15ms flush interval is unchanged. The regime is recomputed once per housekeeping tick. + +## Configuration, control, and observability + +* **TOML config file.** A `--config` flag loads tunable constants from TOML (`toml_config.rs`), falling back to defaults on error, reloaded on SIGHUP. +* **Dynamic runtime config.** `DynamicConfig` replaces the old `DynamicToggles`, holding the scheduling mode and toggles behind atomics for thread-safe runtime changes over stdin and a control socket. +* **JSON-RPC control socket.** A Unix-socket control plane (`control.rs`, `control_socket.rs`, `--control-socket`) supports `set_mode` (classic or enhanced), `set_quality`, `set_exploration`, `get_status`, `get_stats`, and `subscribe` / `unsubscribe` to the `stats` and `priority.window` topics. Documented in `docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md`. +* **Critical-packet priority sidecar.** A dedicated UDP socket (`priority.rs`, `--priority-bind`) takes a 5-byte datagram from an encoder to open a critical window of N milliseconds. Loopback UDP shares the data path's network stack, so the hint stays tightly ordered against the packets it describes (tighter than the out-of-band JSON-RPC channel). Overlapping windows extend the deadline monotonically. Documented in `docs/KEYFRAME_PRIORITY.md`. +* **Prometheus metrics endpoint.** A hand-rolled `/metrics` HTTP server (`metrics.rs`, `--metrics-bind`, no axum/hyper dependency) exports per-link and aggregate gauges plus the current mode.

CC's loss path was dormant. new LinkCongestionState::observe_traffic(bytes_sent_total, nak_total, now_ms) computes per-tick deltas against a previous-call baseline and forwards them to record_loss. first call stashes a baseline without sampling. byte delta is converted to a packet count using the standard SRT payload (1316 B); the ratio is invariant under uniform packet-size assumptions so the approximation is fine for the loss permille EWMA.

cc_backing_off still drives the cc controller's own bitrate backoff, it just no longer gates routing. gate the classifier's delay signals (HighRtt/QueueBuilding) behind a 2-consecutive-tick (~2s) streak latch. neither slows reaction to a genuine collapse (those hold the signal for many seconds) and the gate never removes a link, so a bonded-cellular rig can't be starved. also correct the stale shadow-mode comments: the classifier and cc soft cap have been live in selection, not telemetry-only. --- src/connection/mod.rs | 17 +++++--- src/sender/mod.rs | 6 ++- src/sender/selection/classifier.rs | 65 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------ src/sender/selection/enhanced.rs | 34 +++++++++------- src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs | 12 +++--- src/stats.rs | 16 ++++---- src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 36 +++++++++++++++-- 7 files changed, 134 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/connection/mod.rs b/src/connection/mod.rs index e685edf..39ef310 100644 --- a/src/connection/mod.rs +++ b/src/connection/mod.rs @@ -185,9 +185,11 @@ pub struct SrtlaConnection { /// tick from `WeakLinkFilter::classify`.

Keyframe detection is authoritative upstream: the encoder front-end (gst-app) parses NAL units and opens the critical window over the priority sidecar.

pure selection penalty that never touches liveness or re-registration. adapted from CERALIVE/srtla-send-rs 131cd6a79, improved three ways: - folds "stalled" into the existing admission-gate idiom (transient stall_gated flag) instead of the fork's connected/last_received mask-then-restore hack - no blind reprobe timer: recovery is liveness-proven, a gated link keeps sending keepalives and its next keepalive-rtt sample un-gates it - a link with no delivery proof yet (sample == 0) is never classed as stalled, so a fresh burst is not mistaken for a black hole opt out with --no-stall-deselect; tune via --stall-min-in-flight / --stall-ack-stale-ms; toggle at runtime with the set_stall_deselect json-rpc method. still unvalidated on real bond hardware. --- README.md | 12 ++ src/config.rs | 74 ++++++++++- src/connection/ack_nak.rs | 6 + src/connection/mod.rs | 37 ++++++ src/connection/packet_io.rs | 6 + src/control.rs | 13 ++ src/main.rs | 24 +++- src/sender/selection/classic.rs | 4 +- src/sender/selection/enhanced.rs | 9 +- src/sender/selection/mod.rs | 41 ++++++ src/stats.rs | 1 + src/test_helpers.rs | 2 + src/tests/config_tests.rs | 22 +++- src/tests/mod.rs | 3 + src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 17 +++ src/tests/stall_deselect_tests.rs | 206 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/toml_config.rs | 9 ++ 17 files changed, 477 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/tests/stall_deselect_tests.rs diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 0bbfe7f..1197930 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -52,6 +52,15 @@ The sender supports two mutually exclusive scheduling modes: - **Enable via**: `--exploration` flag or the `set_exploration` JSON-RPC method - **Use Case**: More aggressive connection testing in unstable network conditions +### Stalled-Link Deselect (On by Default) + +- **What it does**: Temporarily excludes a link that is holding a large in-flight backlog while producing no fresh delivery proof (no earned ACK and no keepalive round-trip within the staleness window), as long as a healthier link can carry the traffic. +- **Independent liveness signal**: The staleness clock is stamped only on an earned ACK or a completed keepalive round-trip, never on generic inbound bytes, so a link that merely echoes traffic while its data path is dead still goes stale. +- **Self-recovering**: A deselected link keeps sending keepalives.

Measured on the netem testbed, every send was a single-packet sendto: 26827 calls for 26827 packets. The queue was buying no syscall reduction at all, only up to FLUSH_INTERVAL_MS of added latency. Add BatchUdpSocket::send_batch, backed by sendmmsg on Linux. sendmmsg can accept fewer datagrams than offered once the socket buffer fills, so try_send_batch reports a short send and flush loops until the queue drains, keeping the existing partial-failure bookkeeping so a mid-batch error never duplicates packets. EINTR before any datagram is queued is retried rather than failing the link. Non-Linux keeps a send_batch that loops send() and reports the same short-send semantics, so flush is platform-agnostic and behaviour off Linux is unchanged. Same workload after: 6073 calls for 27976 packets (4.4x fewer send syscalls, mean batch 4.61).

Batches are per-connection: each SrtlaConnection owns a BatchSender that drains in one sendmmsg on its own size threshold or 15ms timer, so interleaved routing simply fills several per-link batches concurrently. The flush was never needed, and it made every switch emit a one-packet batch. That cost is what MIN_SWITCH_INTERVAL_MS exists to suppress: it pins the scheduler to one link for 15ms so batches stay contiguous. get_score() deliberately counts queued-but-unflushed packets as in-flight so that routing a packet immediately de-prioritises its own link, which makes selection a closed loop that bounds queue depth per link. Freezing that decision opens the loop. Removing the flush costs 4.5% of mean batch size (4.61 -> 4.40 packets per sendmmsg), because with real batching it is the time flush, not switch contiguity, that ends a batch. --- src/sender/packet_handler.rs | 23 ++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/sender/packet_handler.rs b/src/sender/packet_handler.rs index 4d39c46..07c4974 100644 --- a/src/sender/packet_handler.rs +++ b/src/sender/packet_handler.rs @@ -348,15 +348,20 @@ pub async fn forward_via_connection( if *last_selected_idx != Some(sel_idx) { if let Some(prev_idx) = *last_selected_idx { if prev_idx < connections.len() { - // Flush the previous connection's batch before switching - if connections[prev_idx].has_queued_packets() - && let Err(e) = connections[prev_idx].flush_batch().await - { - warn!( - "{}: batch flush on switch failed: {}", - connections[prev_idx].label, e - ); - } + // Deliberately does not flush the previous link's batch.

That is roughly 24 packets at the rate this sender actually pushes. get_score() counts a link's queued-but-unflushed packets as in-flight specifically so that routing a packet immediately de-prioritises its own link. Selection is therefore a closed feedback loop whose job is to bound queue depth per link. Freezing the decision for 15ms opens that loop: in-flight runs away on whichever link the timer parked on, those packets arrive past the SRT latency budget, and TLPKTDROP discards them. Measured under saturation, enhanced piled 215 packets in flight on one link while the other sat at 58, and skewed traffic toward the *weaker* link (64% of bytes onto a 1000kbit link while a 2000kbit one idled). The cooldown was never a scheduling policy. It existed to stop forward_via_connection from flushing a one-packet batch on every switch; that flush is gone (previous commit) and batches now leave in a single sendmmsg on their own threshold/timer, so switching costs nothing. netem testbed, receiver held at BELABOX srtla_rec, warm start, 30s, n=5, interleaved, idle host. Delivery %: scenario classic enhanced(stock) enhanced(this) tight 83.0 65.2 83.7 tight_asym 84.2 70.3 83.7 +14.6 pts on tight (t=15.2) and +12.8 on tight_asym (t=4.4), restoring parity with classic and with the BELABOX C reference. Removing the batch flush alone does not recover it: with the cooldown still in place, enhanced remains ~14 points down. Score hysteresis (SWITCH_THRESHOLD, 10%) is kept. Damping in score space resists noise-driven flip-flopping without opening the loop; damping in time does not. --- src/sender/mod.rs | 4 +- src/sender/packet_handler.rs | 7 +- src/sender/selection/enhanced.rs | 120 +++++++------ src/sender/selection/mod.rs | 99 +++++------ src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 287 +++++++++++++++++++------------ 5 files changed, 288 insertions(+), 229 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/sender/mod.rs b/src/sender/mod.rs index aa471f3..751dfc7 100644 --- a/src/sender/mod.rs +++ b/src/sender/mod.rs @@ -43,6 +43,8 @@ pub use selection::link_cc::{CcState, ClimbMode, LinkCcSnapshot}; // `super::selection::select_connection_idx` path.

Keepalives prove liveness (that is how stall_deselect un-gates itself) but cannot prove capacity. Only data can. The old implementation did not do that. It probed second-best -- usually a healthy link that is already earning its own ACKs and needs no probe -- it fired every 30s whether or not anything was wrong, and it had no budget: it diverted roughly half of all traffic for as long as its trigger held, which can be seconds. It stayed survivable only because the switch cooldown happened to rate limit it, and that cooldown is now gone. Replace it with a bounded probe: - targets only starved links (weak, loss_degraded, or over the in-flight cap), never a healthy runner-up - one packet per link per PROBE_INTERVAL_MS (200ms), so a persistently bad link cannot bleed throughput - only when an un-gated link is schedulable: a probe is paid for out of spare capacity, and when nothing is healthy every packet is needed for the stream - data packets only, since a control packet earns no ACK and steering SRT's own control traffic onto a degraded link would delay its control loop for nothing - stall_gated links are excluded: a suspected black hole already has its own liveness-proven recovery path, so aiming data at it only adds latency Still opt-in behind --exploration (exploration_enabled defaults false); this changes what that flag does, not the default path. elapsed_ms/STARTUP_INSTANT go with it -- the deleted 30s periodic trigger was their only caller. --- src/connection/mod.rs | 7 ++ src/sender/selection/exploration.rs | 141 ++++++++++++++++++---------- src/test_helpers.rs | 1 + src/tests/stall_deselect_tests.rs | 12 +-- src/utils.rs | 14 --- 5 files changed, 106 insertions(+), 69 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/connection/mod.rs b/src/connection/mod.rs index f84bf58..c1ad18a 100644 --- a/src/connection/mod.rs +++ b/src/connection/mod.rs @@ -220,6 +220,11 @@ pub struct SrtlaConnection { /// `is_timed_out`/`CONN_TIMEOUT`); a gated link keeps a trickle of /// traffic so the loss EWMA can recover and clear the latch. pub(crate) loss_degraded: bool, + /// When this link last received an exploration probe packet + /// (`sender::selection::exploration`). `0` means never probed. + /// Rate-limits probing so a persistently starved link cannot bleed + /// throughput one diverted packet at a time. + pub(crate) last_probe_ms: u64, /// Strategy for steering this uplink's socket onto its egress path. /// Retained so reconnects re-apply the same binding (source IP on Linux, /// host `Network.bindSocket` callback on Android). @@ -272,6 +277,7 @@ impl SrtlaConnection { cc_backing_off: false, cc_target_bps: 0, loss_degraded: false, + last_probe_ms: 0, binder, }) } @@ -616,6 +622,7 @@ impl SrtlaConnection { // not classed as stalled the instant it reconnects with a backlog. self.last_ack_or_rtt_sample_ms = 0; self.stall_gated = false; + self.last_probe_ms = 0; } /// Mark connection for recovery (C-style), similar to setting last_rcvd = 1. diff --git a/src/sender/selection/exploration.rs b/src/sender/selection/exploration.rs index 87c83c4..7ee3861 100644 --- a/src/sender/selection/exploration.rs +++ b/src/sender/selection/exploration.rs @@ -1,61 +1,104 @@ -//!

At go-live every link is warming, which empties the candidate pool: select_connection returns None, packet_handler logs "no available connection to forward packet", and the stream is dropped until the first link is promoted -- either by two keepalive RTT probes or, against a receiver that does not return them promptly, by the 5s WARMING_TIMEOUT_MS fallback. That contradicts the rule the rest of this scheduler follows, and that the phase machine was ported from: a phase weights a link's score, it never removes the link. `weak` and `loss_degraded` crush a score but keep the link rankable (GATED_LINK_PENALTY); `stall_gated` only fires when a healthier link exists. Warming was the one gate with no such escape hatch. Warming now scores at 0.8 instead of being excluded. The de-rating still expresses what the phase is for -- a link whose RTT baseline is one keepalive old should not take a full share while a characterised link is available -- but when every link is warming they are de-rated equally, the relative ranking is unchanged, and traffic flows immediately. Registering remains the sole hard exclusion. That is a protocol constraint, not a quality judgement: without REG3 the receiver discards the data. --- src/connection/mod.rs | 48 +++++++++++++++-- src/sender/selection/enhanced.rs | 6 ++- src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 92 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 141 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/connection/mod.rs b/src/connection/mod.rs index c1ad18a..2495e4a 100644 --- a/src/connection/mod.rs +++ b/src/connection/mod.rs @@ -42,14 +42,29 @@ const WARMING_TIMEOUT_MS: u64 = 5_000; /// Link lifecycle phase. /// -/// Drives which links the scheduler may use and prevents early NAK bursts -/// from newly-connected links from polluting quality scores. +/// A phase *weights* a link's score; it does not remove the link. `Registering` +/// is the sole exception, and it is not a quality judgement: the receiver has +/// not returned REG3, so data sent on that link would be discarded by the +/// protocol itself. +/// +/// This mirrors the model the phase machine was ported from, where the +/// scheduler multiplies a link's score by a per-phase weight and only a dead +/// link is filtered out.

Fixing those exposed a further layer of unix-only code that only ever compiled because nothing downstream of it did. Each item is gated where it is genuinely unix-bound, rather than silenced: - CallbackBinder binds a socket by raw fd. It exists for Android, where the host steers a socket onto a radio via Network.bindSocket. Windows has no fd and no such integration, so the binder (and its re-export) is unix-only. SourceIpBinder, which the CLI actually uses, is unaffected. - analyze_ip_reload is the SIGHUP entry point, and ReloadRefusal::NotFound is reachable only from it. Windows has no SIGHUP. Startup parsing goes through analyze_ip_reload_text on every platform, so IP-list handling is unchanged. - The async control surface (dispatch_async, SubscriptionContext, handle_subscribe/unsubscribe) serves the Unix-domain control socket and nothing else. The sync dispatch path used by config.rs stays on every platform. - SubscriptionHub::{subscribe,unsubscribe,len} are reachable only from that socket. publish() stays: on windows the hub publishes to nobody, because there is no way to subscribe. Also drops dispatch_inner's _subscription_ctx parameter, which was never read. cargo check --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu now succeeds.

It probed second-best, which is normally a healthy link already earning its own ACKs and needing no probe; it fired every 30s whether or not anything was wrong; and it had no budget, so it diverted roughly half of all traffic for as long as its trigger held, which can be seconds. It survived only because the switch cooldown incidentally rate limited it, and that cooldown is gone. I rewrote it as a bounded probe of starved links (one data packet per link per 200ms, only when a healthy link exists) and then measured it on the netem testbed against the exact scenario it exists for: link1 gated to 0.00 Mbps by a 70% loss burst, silently healed, then needed when link0 collapsed to 600kbit. probe off: 98.3 +/- 3.9 median 99.2 runs<95%: 1/15 probe on: 99.0 +/- 0.3 median 99.1 runs<95%: 0/15 diff 0.76 pts, Welch t=0.75, n=15 per arm No effect. The starvation lock is real (I watched a link sit at 0.00 Mbps for ~7s after it silently healed) but it is self-clearing: GATED_LINK_PENALTY keeps a gated link rankable rather than excluded, so it retains a 0.2-0.5 Mbps trickle and earns the samples that clear the gate. The classifier's probation re-test covers the share-starvation latch on top of that. The probe was redundant twice over. Keeping an off-by-default knob that cannot be shown to help is how the switch cooldown got here: a mechanism kept because it sounded principled, which then acquired a workaround, which then broke the scheduler. If a real failure mode later shows the trickle is insufficient, that calls for a measurement, not a resurrected flag. --- CHANGELOG.md | 3 +- README.md | 18 +- docs/CONTROL_PROTOCOL.md | 7 - src/config.rs | 30 +--- src/connection/mod.rs | 7 - src/control.rs | 12 -- src/main.rs | 4 - src/mode.rs | 7 - src/sender/mod.rs | 2 - src/sender/packet_handler.rs | 1 - src/sender/selection/classic.rs | 1 - src/sender/selection/classifier.rs | 4 +- src/sender/selection/enhanced.rs | 41 +---- src/sender/selection/exploration.rs | 104 ----------- src/sender/selection/mod.rs | 21 +-- src/sender/status.rs | 11 +- src/stats.rs | 1 - src/test_helpers.rs | 1 - src/tests/config_tests.rs | 11 +- src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 265 +++++----------------------- src/tests/stall_deselect_tests.rs | 12 +- src/toml_config.rs | 4 - 22 files changed, 72 insertions(+), 495 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 src/sender/selection/exploration.rs diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 925bddf..c0cf206 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ The runtime still has exactly two scheduling modes: `classic` (capacity based, m * **TOML config file.** A `--config` flag loads tunable constants from TOML (`toml_config.rs`), falling back to defaults on error, reloaded on SIGHUP. * **Dynamic runtime config.** `DynamicConfig` replaces the old `DynamicToggles`, holding the scheduling mode and toggles behind atomics for thread-safe runtime changes over stdin and a control socket. -* **JSON-RPC control socket.** A Unix-socket control plane (`control.rs`, `control_socket.rs`, `--control-socket`) supports `set_mode` (classic or enhanced), `set_quality`, `set_exploration`, `get_status`, `get_stats`, and `subscribe` / `unsubscribe` to the `stats` and `priority.window` topics.

The link stays demoted because it is demoted. -//! `GATED_LINK_PENALTY` softens this by keeping a gated link *rankable* rather -//! than excluded, but a crushed score still loses every comparison against a -//! healthy link, so in practice the trickle never arrives. -//! -//! Keepalives do flow on every link regardless of selection, and their RTT -//! samples prove liveness — that is what lets `stall_deselect` un-gate itself. -//! What a keepalive cannot prove is *capacity*: whether the link can carry data -//! without losing it. Only data can answer that. -//! -//! So this module answers exactly one question: which starved link, if any, -//! should receive a single data packet right now, in order to earn the ACK or -//! NAK that will let the scoring layer re-evaluate it? -//! -//! The probe is deliberately small and rare: -//! -//! - **One packet at a time.** Selection is re-run per packet, so the packet -//! after a probe already sees the probe queued (`get_score()` counts queued -//! packets as in-flight) and routes normally. A probe is a single diversion, -//! not a mode the scheduler enters. -//! - **Rate-limited per link** ([`PROBE_INTERVAL_MS`]), so a persistently bad -//! link cannot bleed throughput. At 200ms and a typical 1600 pkt/s, one -//! starved link costs well under 0.1% of packets. -//! - **Only when a healthy link exists.** Probing is a luxury paid for out of -//! spare capacity; if nothing healthy is schedulable, every packet is needed -//! for the stream and normal scoring already routes to the least-bad link. -//! - **Only starved links.** A link that is already winning traffic is -//! generating its own ACKs and needs no probe. -//! -//! This replaces an earlier design that probed the *second-best* link (usually -//! healthy, and already carrying traffic) on a 30-second periodic timer, with -//! no budget — it diverted roughly half of all traffic for as long as its -//! trigger held, and leaned on the scheduler's switch cooldown as an accidental -//! rate limiter. - -use tracing::debug; - -use super::enhanced::in_flight_cap_exceeded; -use crate::connection::SrtlaConnection; - -/// Minimum time between probe packets sent to the same starved link. -/// -/// Long enough that a probe costs a negligible share of the stream, short -/// enough that a link which recovers is noticed within a few hundred -/// milliseconds rather than after a stall the viewer would see. -pub const PROBE_INTERVAL_MS: u64 = 200; - -/// Is this link starved — demoted by a quality gate such that it wins no -/// traffic, and therefore cannot earn the samples that would clear the gate? -/// -/// `stall_gated` is deliberately excluded: a stalled link is a suspected black -/// hole with a healthy alternative already carrying the stream, and it has its -/// own liveness-proven recovery path (a keepalive RTT sample clears it).

A cellular link sitting at an ordinary 1-2% of wire loss therefore had its soft cap decayed 15% a second regardless of how lightly it was loaded: ~21 seconds from 3 Mbps to the 100 kbps floor, where the BDP in-flight cap deselects it. Steady radio loss threw away a link that was carrying real traffic, and since the loss never cleared, the link never came back. Note Drain already avoided exactly this by being one-shot, and says so: "applying the cut every tick compounds it, collapsing target_bps to the floor within ~11 ticks". The same was true of BackingOff, which compounded anyway. Two guards, covering different halves of the problem: - BACKOFF_MIN_LOAD_PERMILLE gates entry. A link we are barely feeding cannot be the cause of its own loss. This covers the starved link. - BACKOFF_EFFICACY_TICKS bounds the descent on a link we really are driving hard, by asking whether cutting is working at all: congestive loss responds to a lower offered rate, wire loss does not. If a ~39% cut has not moved the loss, stop attributing it to ourselves and let the link climb again. Neither suffices alone. The load gate does not converge by itself, since each cut lowers the target and so raises load, holding the gate open all the way down. The efficacy test cannot protect a starved link, since a link carrying nothing has no throughput to judge a cut against. The loss decrease stays compounding, unlike Drain's one-shot: rtt_min is windowed, so RTT inflation fades as a signal once congestion outlives the window, leaving loss as the only backstop able to walk the cap down to real capacity. --- src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs | 373 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 349 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs b/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs index aaa7c96..d63a38b 100644 --- a/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs +++ b/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs @@ -11,18 +11,54 @@ //! //!

BREAKING: the get_stats JSON field bitrate_bps is now bitrate_bytes_per_sec, and the Prometheus gauge srtla_send_link_bitrate_bps is now srtla_send_link_bitrate_bytes_per_second. --- README.md | 2 +- src/metrics.rs | 11 +++++++---- src/stats.rs | 12 +++++++++--- 3 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 47808ca..0160141 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -241,7 +241,7 @@ srtla_send --metrics-bind 127.0.0.1:9099 \ curl -s 127.0.0.1:9099/metrics ``` -Exposed series include `srtla_send_link_up`, `srtla_send_link_rtt_ms`, `srtla_send_link_window`, `srtla_send_link_in_flight`, `srtla_send_link_nak_total`, `srtla_send_link_bitrate_bps`, `srtla_send_link_quality_multiplier`, plus aggregate `srtla_send_active_links`, `srtla_send_total_window`, `srtla_send_critical_windows_total`, and the current `srtla_send_mode` as a numeric gauge. +Exposed series include `srtla_send_link_up`, `srtla_send_link_rtt_ms`, `srtla_send_link_window`, `srtla_send_link_in_flight`, `srtla_send_link_nak_total`, `srtla_send_link_bitrate_bytes_per_second`, `srtla_send_link_quality_multiplier`, plus aggregate `srtla_send_active_links`, `srtla_send_total_window`, `srtla_send_critical_windows_total`, and the current `srtla_send_mode` as a numeric gauge. ### Connection Selection Algorithm Details diff --git a/src/metrics.rs b/src/metrics.rs index 39d6159..591e714 100644 --- a/src/metrics.rs +++ b/src/metrics.rs @@ -126,17 +126,20 @@ pub fn render(stats: &SharedStats, config: &DynamicConfig, cw: &CriticalWindow) .ok(); } + // Renamed from srtla_send_link_bitrate_bps, which reported bytes/sec + // under a bits/sec name.

They inject raw zero bytes into srtla_send's listener, which never completes an SRT handshake at the far end, so no ACKs or NAKs ever come back and LinkCongestionState never leaves Bootstrap. That is why they only assert "did not panic" -- there was nothing else to assert. test_loss_triggers_window_reduction cannot be testing what its name says. Add the missing pieces to network-sim: - start_srt_caller() puts a real srt-live-transmit caller in front of srtla_send, so a genuine SRT session runs through the bond and the listener's ACK/NAK stream drives the real feedback path. - get_stats() queries srtla_send's control socket for per-link cc_state, cc_target_bps and nak_count. It runs as root inside the namespace, since the socket is root-owned. - spawn_udp_stream() returns while traffic flows, so a test can sample a control loop under load rather than only after it. - The stream injector takes a payload size and paces against a wall-clock deadline. At 188 bytes a datagram, megabit rates need sub-millisecond sleeps that Python cannot hold, so the pump quietly became the bottleneck instead of the network. netns_wire_loss asserts the fix in ace481b end to end: 2% netem loss on a roomy 8 Mbps link, against a clean link deliberately too small (1.5 Mbps) to carry the stream alone, so the scheduler is forced to use the lossy one while nothing we send can congest it. It checks that the CC target never collapses toward the floor, that the lossy link keeps carrying real traffic, and that the bond aggregates past what the clean link could do by itself. It also asserts NAKs actually reached the sender, and separately that any data crossed the bond, so a broken harness fails loudly instead of passing vacuously. Unverified: netns tests need passwordless sudo, which is unavailable here, so this skips rather than runs. --- Cargo.lock | 5 +- crates/network-sim/Cargo.toml | 1 + crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs | 157 +++++++++++++++-- crates/network-sim/src/lib.rs | 5 +- tests/common/mod.rs | 1 + tests/netns_wire_loss.rs | 271 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 6 files changed, 424 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/netns_wire_loss.rs diff --git a/Cargo.lock b/Cargo.lock index 0f9cdeb..18a7479 100644 --- a/Cargo.lock +++ b/Cargo.lock @@ -392,6 +392,7 @@ version = "0.1.0" dependencies = [ "anyhow", "rand 0.10.0", + "serde_json", "tempfile", "tracing", ] @@ -641,9 +642,9 @@ dependencies = [ [[package]] name = "serde_json" -version = "1.0.149" +version = "1.0.150" source = "registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index" -checksum = "83fc039473c5595ace860d8c4fafa220ff474b3fc6bfdb4293327f1a37e94d86" +checksum = "e8014e44b4736ed0538adeecded0fce2a272f22dc9578a7eb6b2d9993c74cfb9" dependencies = [ "itoa", "memchr", diff --git a/crates/network-sim/Cargo.toml b/crates/network-sim/Cargo.toml index 7d4c747..50f18cf 100644 --- a/crates/network-sim/Cargo.toml +++ b/crates/network-sim/Cargo.toml @@ -10,3 +10,4 @@ anyhow = "1.0" tracing = "0.1" rand = "0.10" tempfile = "3" +serde_json = "1.0.150" diff --git a/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs b/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs index a05c884..3c758f5 100644 --- a/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs +++ b/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs @@ -398,9 +398,13 @@ pub struct SrtlaTestStack { srt_server: Option, srtla_rec: Option, srtla_send: Option, + srt_caller: Option, _ip_list_path: PathBuf, } +/// UDP port the SRT caller ingests from, when one is started. +pub const SRT_CALLER_INGEST_PORT: u16 = 6000; + /// Output collected from all processes after stopping the stack. pub struct StackOutput { pub srt_server_stdout: Vec, @@ -409,6 +413,8 @@ pub struct StackOutput { pub srtla_rec_stderr: Vec, pub srtla_send_stdout: Vec, pub srtla_send_stderr: Vec, + pub srt_caller_stdout: Vec, + pub srt_caller_stderr: Vec, } /// Ports used by the test stack. @@ -499,10 +505,83 @@ impl SrtlaTestStack { srt_server: Some(srt_server), srtla_rec: Some(srtla_rec), srtla_send: Some(srtla_send), + srt_caller: None, _ip_list_path: ip_list_path, }) } + /// Start a real SRT caller in the sender namespace, in front of + /// srtla_send. + /// + /// Without this the stack carries no SRT session: injecting raw UDP + /// into srtla_send's listener gets it proxied over the bond, but the + /// far end never completes a handshake, so it never returns ACKs or + /// NAKs.

Two reasons, and the second invalidates a premise of the first attempt. The RTT escape nullified the latch. Clearing loss_uncongestive whenever rtt_inflation exceeded RTT_HOLD_FACTOR re-opened the backoff path on every inflated tick, so the controller alternated BackingOff -> Drain -> BackingOff and cut on nearly all of them. The latch might as well not have existed. Congestion visible in RTT is already answered by Drain and Holding; the loss path does not need to double up on it. The verdict now expires on a timer (LOSS_UNCONGESTIVE_RETEST_TICKS) so it is still re-tested rather than trusted forever. target_bps does not pace. It steers the scheduler between links; it does not throttle one. So cutting it does not reduce what the link sends, and measured throughput does not follow the cap down -- the repro shows the link flat at ~4.1 Mbps while its cap collapsed to 100 kbps. The efficacy test had assumed a cut reduces offered load, and the delivered floor was dropped earlier on the reasoning that "observed follows target down". It does not, and cannot. So restore the floor, for the reason that actually holds: never cap a link below the rate it is visibly sustaining. Such a cap is not a conservative estimate, it is a wrong one, and nothing about it self-corrects. It still converges under real congestion, where cutting a link's cap steers traffic off it, throughput genuinely falls, and the floor follows it down. Clamped to prev so a backoff can never raise the cap. Repro after: cap holds at 1000000 through the loss episode instead of sawtoothing to 100000. The netem test still cannot run here (needs passwordless sudo), and it now also dumps any srtla_send panic and fails loudly if the stats snapshot stops changing -- a wedged housekeeping task otherwise reads as a suspiciously stable control loop. --- src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs | 220 ++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- tests/netns_wire_loss.rs | 42 +++++- 2 files changed, 209 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs b/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs index d63a38b..4b506a3 100644 --- a/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs +++ b/src/sender/selection/link_cc.rs @@ -33,31 +33,42 @@ //! the cap to the floor, where the BDP in-flight cap deselects a link //! that was carrying real traffic. //! -//!

A piped child whose output nobody reads blocks in write() once the 64 KiB pipe buffer fills, and the harness runs srtla_send with RUST_LOG=debug, which at a few Mbps fills that in about a second. The task that does the logging is srtla_send's main select loop, so the sender wedges there while its control socket -- a separate task that logs almost nothing -- carries on answering. The netem run therefore reported a stats snapshot frozen at the values it held one second in, byte for byte, for the rest of the run. That reads like an impossibly stable control loop rather than a deadlocked one, and it is not a measurement of anything. Reproduced outside netns: the same loopback stack that runs clean with stderr redirected to a file freezes from t+1 the moment stderr is a pipe nobody reads and RUST_LOG=debug is set. Drain both pipes on background threads from spawn. stdout_lines and stderr_lines now return a snapshot and are safe to call while the process is still running.

Every uplink past the first was bound to a source on a different subnet, so its packets routed out link 0's veth and the receiver's strict rp_filter dropped them: the second uplink never registered, and a bonding test quietly ran on one link. The last netem run showed exactly this — link 1 sat in bootstrap with zero traffic the whole time. Model what SRTLA actually does: one receiver endpoint reached by N sender source IPs, each egressing its own interface. That needs per-source policy routing. - Receiver owns a service IP (10.99.0.1) on lo; every uplink connects there, and it is the value of receiver_ip now. - Sender gets a routing table per source IP (ip rule from lookup ) whose route to the service IP points out that uplink's veth, so binding a socket to the source pins its traffic to the link. - Receiver returns to each sender source with the service IP as source address, so the sender's connected UDP socket accepts the reply. - rp_filter disabled on both ends: the return path lives in a policy table outside main, which strict mode drops. Retune netns_wire_loss for a real bond: both links 6 Mbps, ~9 Mbps offered, so each carries ~4.5 Mbps -- below its own ceiling (the lossy link's 2% stays wire loss) yet more than one link can supply (both stay busy). Assertions now require the lossy AND the clean link to each carry more than a quarter of the offered rate, and the bond to exceed a single link, so a one-link result fails loudly instead of passing. Still needs passwordless sudo to run, so it skips here rather than executing; the routing is verified by reasoning and compilation only. --- crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs | 136 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- tests/netns_wire_loss.rs | 81 ++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 178 insertions(+), 39 deletions(-) diff --git a/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs b/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs index 35aa8cf..dcb88df 100644 --- a/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs +++ b/crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs @@ -324,16 +324,118 @@ impl SrtlaTestTopology { receiver_ifaces.push(r_iface); } - let receiver_ip = "10.10.1.2".to_string(); - - Ok(Self { + // One receiver endpoint reached over every uplink, which is how + // SRTLA actually bonds: N sender source IPs, one receiver + // address.

Two causes, both fixed here. False-loss retransmit storm. The SRT caller ran at latency=200ms while the shaper buffers up to 1s (tc tbf latency 1s). A packet merely waiting its turn in the TBF aged past SRT's 200ms window and was retransmitted while the original was still queued, doubling offered load right when the bond was busiest. Raise the caller to latency=2000ms, above the buffer depth, so only genuinely lost packets are retransmitted. Too much load. Two equal links force an awkward squeeze: using both needs the offered rate above one link, i.e. above half the total, so the bond always runs hot. 9 Mbps on 12 was too hot. Back off to ~7 Mbps (665 pps) -- still over one link's 6 Mbps so both are used, but ~58% of total, close to the ~50% load the single-link run held stably.

That is inherent to SRT-over-loss near capacity, and taming it needs FEC or encoder-rate adaptation that srtla_send does not have. It is orthogonal to the wire-loss ratchet this test exists for. So stop asserting throughput. `sent_bps` counts bytes queued to a link, which under retransmission is a liveness signal, not a goodput one; the old per-link-share and aggregation assertions would have passed on retransmit noise and meant nothing. Assert instead what is both robust and meaningful, and what has held on every run so far, collapsed or not: the lossy link's CC target never ratchets toward MIN_TARGET_BPS (it has stayed in the 350k-1.4M band throughout, floor is 100k), and both links stay alive so the bond is really bonding.

Replace it, for tests that opt in, with an adaptive SRT sender: belacoder's congestion response minus the encoder. It generates dummy payload over a real SRT caller and lowers its bitrate when the SRT send buffer backs up or RTT inflates, so the offered rate tracks what the bonded path can carry. Dependency-light on purpose: libsrt only (already required by the whole srtla stack), no GStreamer and no patched encoder, so it stays portable where belacoder would not. The ~180-line C source is embedded via include_str! and compiled on demand with cc + pkg-config srt, gated by check_adaptive_sender_deps, so it never touches the normal cargo build and skips cleanly where the toolchain is absent. (It needs an explicit .gitignore exception because the repo blanket-ignores *.c reference files.) Verified on loopback, no root: against an unshaped 2% lossy path it settles at a stable ~4 Mbps with a shallow send buffer; against a rate-capped lossy relay (a local stand-in for the netns TBF) the RTT-based backoff keeps windows healthy and cuts NAKs ~5x versus buffer-only backoff. It does not make the run pristine — a real SRT session over a hard-capped lossy link still oscillates, since a clean steady state would need production-grade CC tuned for the path, out of scope here. So netns_wire_loss keeps its robust checks (lossy CC target never floors; both links carry a real share) and logs aggregate goodput without asserting on it. --- .gitignore | 3 + crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c | 197 +++++++++++++++++++++ crates/network-sim/src/harness.rs | 116 +++++++++++- crates/network-sim/src/lib.rs | 7 +- tests/netns_wire_loss.rs | 142 +++++++-------- 5 files changed, 385 insertions(+), 80 deletions(-) create mode 100644 crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index d64c123..152fb72 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -20,6 +20,9 @@ target/ # but don't want them in the repo *.c *.h +# ...except the harness's own C source, which is a real tracked file that +# the network-sim crate embeds via include_str! and compiles on demand. +!crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c bond-bunny-main/ moblin/ /.claude diff --git a/crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c b/crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6f1a6f4 --- /dev/null +++ b/crates/network-sim/src/adaptive_srt_send.c @@ -0,0 +1,197 @@ +// Adaptive-bitrate SRT sender for the netns harness. +// +// This is belacoder's congestion response with the encoder removed: an +// SRT caller that generates dummy payload and lowers its send rate when +// the SRT send buffer backs up, exactly the closed loop a real BELABOX +// deployment relies on.

Tests stop advancing tokio's virtual clock (which never moved now_ms anyway) and stamp explicit past timestamps instead, which is both deterministic and honest: the old fake_clock timeout tests were asserting against a clock the logic did not actually read. tokio::time::Instant remains only where it belongs, the event-loop interval timers and the BatchSender send-coalescing window. --- src/connection/mod.rs | 53 ++++++++++++------------- src/connection/packet_io.rs | 6 +-- src/sender/housekeeping.rs | 69 +++++++++++++++++---------------- src/sender/mod.rs | 4 +- src/sender/status.rs | 7 ++-- src/test_helpers.rs | 17 ++++---- src/tests/connection_tests.rs | 54 ++++++++++++++------------ src/tests/registration_tests.rs | 29 +++++++------- src/tests/sender_tests.rs | 6 +-- 9 files changed, 126 insertions(+), 119 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/connection/mod.rs b/src/connection/mod.rs index 7148230..411dfb8 100644 --- a/src/connection/mod.rs +++ b/src/connection/mod.rs @@ -28,7 +28,6 @@ use rustc_hash::FxHashMap; #[allow(unused_imports)] pub use socket::CallbackBinder; pub use socket::{SourceIpBinder, UplinkBinder, create_uplink_socket, resolve_remote}; -use tokio::time::Instant; use tracing::debug; use crate::protocol::*; @@ -179,15 +178,15 @@ pub struct SrtlaConnection { #[cfg(not(feature = "test-internals"))] pub(crate) highest_acked_seq: i32, #[cfg(feature = "test-internals")] - pub last_received: Option, + pub last_received: Option, #[cfg(not(feature = "test-internals"))] - pub(crate) last_received: Option, + pub(crate) last_received: Option, #[cfg(feature = "test-internals")] - pub last_sent: Option, + pub last_sent: Option, #[cfg(not(feature = "test-internals"))] - pub(crate) last_sent: Option, + pub(crate) last_sent: Option, /// Timestamp of the last keepalive sent (for periodic telemetry) - pub(crate) last_keepalive_sent: Option, + pub(crate) last_keepalive_sent: Option, /// `now_ms()` of this link's last delivery proof: an EARNED ACK (this link /// owned an acked seq) or a keepalive-RTT response.
