Bump VERSION to 1.0.0 and cut the first tagged release of vpp-maglev.
Also in this commit:
- maglevc: MAGLEV_SERVER env var as an alternative to the --server
flag, matching the MAGLEV_CONFIG / MAGLEV_GRPC_ADDR convention on
the other binaries. The flag takes precedence when both are set.
- Rename cmd/maglevd -> cmd/server and cmd/maglevc -> cmd/client so
the source directory names are decoupled from binary names (the
frontend and tester commands already followed this convention).
Build outputs and the Debian packages are unchanged.
Rename the web dashboard binary to maglevd-frontend and move it to
/usr/sbin (it's a daemon and belongs with maglevd). The systemd unit
name stays vpp-maglev-frontend.service since that prefix is the
package name. Manpage, README, user-guide, and debian packaging all
updated in lockstep; bump to 0.9.1 for the first real release.
All frontend env vars are now prefixed MAGLEV_FRONTEND_ so a single
/etc/default/vpp-maglev can be shared with maglevd without collisions.
Every flag has an env equivalent for Docker use. MAGLEV_FRONTEND_USER
and MAGLEV_FRONTEND_PASSWORD still gate the /admin surface.
VPPInfoPanel now pulses "API: ↑↓" indicators in the zippy title
whenever a vpp-api-send / vpp-api-recv log event arrives on the SSE
stream for the scoped maglevd — 250ms blue flash, re-triggerable,
with the two arrows tightly kerned via negative letter-spacing.
New feature: per-VIP / per-backend runtime counters
* New GetVPPLBCounters RPC serving an in-process snapshot refreshed
by a 5s scrape loop (internal/vpp/lbstats.go). Each cycle pulls
the LB plugin's four SimpleCounters (next, first, untracked,
no-server) plus the FIB /net/route/to CombinedCounter for every
VIP and every backend host prefix via a single DumpStats call.
* FIB stats-index discovery via ip_route_lookup (internal/vpp/
fibstats.go); per-worker reduction happens in the collector.
* Prometheus collector exports vip_packets_total (kind label),
vip_route_{packets,bytes}_total, and backend_route_{packets,
bytes}_total. Metrics source interface extended with VIPStats /
BackendRouteStats; vpp.Client publishes snapshots via
atomic.Pointer and clears them on disconnect.
* New 'show vpp lb counters' CLI command. The 'show vpp lbstate'
and 'sync vpp lbstate' commands are restructured under 'show
vpp lb {state,counters}' / 'sync vpp lb state' to make room
for the new verb.
New feature: src-ip-sticky frontends
* New frontend YAML key 'src-ip-sticky' (bool). Plumbed through
config.Frontend, desiredVIP, and the lb_add_del_vip_v2 call.
* Reflected in gRPC FrontendInfo.src_ip_sticky and VPPLBVIP.
src_ip_sticky, and shown in 'show vpp lb state' output.
* Scraped back from VPP by parsing 'show lb vips verbose' through
cli_inband — lb_vip_details does not expose the flag. The same
scrape also recovers the LB pool index for each VIP, which the
stats-segment counters are keyed on. This is a documented
temporary workaround until VPP ships an lb_vip_v2_dump.
* src_ip_sticky cannot be mutated on a live VIP, so a flipped flag
triggers a tear-down-and-recreate in reconcileVIP (ASes deleted
with flush, VIP deleted, then re-added). Flip is logged.
New feature: frontend state aggregation and events
* New health.FrontendState (unknown/up/down) and FrontendTransition
types. A frontend is 'up' iff at least one backend has a nonzero
effective weight, 'unknown' iff no backend has real state yet,
and 'down' otherwise.
* Checker tracks per-frontend aggregate state, recomputing after
each backend transition and emitting a frontend-transition Event
on change. Reload drops entries for removed frontends.
* checker.Event gains an optional FrontendTransition pointer;
backend- vs. frontend-transition events are demultiplexed on
that field.
* WatchEvents now sends an initial snapshot of frontend state on
connect (mirroring the existing backend snapshot), subscribes
once to the checker stream, and fans out to backend/frontend
handlers based on the client's filter flags. The proto
FrontendEvent message grows name + transition fields.
* New Checker.FrontendState accessor.
Refactor: pure health helpers
* Moved the priority-failover selector and the (pool idx, active
pool, state, cfg weight) → (vpp weight, flush) mapping out of
internal/vpp/lbsync.go into a new internal/health/weights.go so
the checker can reuse them for frontend-state computation
without importing internal/vpp.
* New functions: health.ActivePoolIndex, BackendEffectiveWeight,
EffectiveWeights, ComputeFrontendState. lbsync.go now calls
these directly; vpp.EffectiveWeights is a thin wrapper over
health.EffectiveWeights retained for the gRPC observability
path. Fully unit-tested in internal/health/weights_test.go.
maglevc polish
* --color default is now mode-aware: on in the interactive shell,
off in one-shot mode so piped output is script-safe. Explicit
--color=true/false still overrides.
* New stripHostMask helper drops /32 and /128 from VIP display;
non-host prefixes pass through unchanged.
* Counter table column order fixed (first before next) and
packets/bytes columns renamed to fib-packets/fib-bytes to
clarify they come from the FIB, not the LB plugin.
Docs
* config-guide: document src-ip-sticky, including the VIP
recreate-on-change caveat.
* user-guide, maglevc.1, maglevd.8: updated command tree, new
counters command, color defaults, and the src-ip-sticky field.
- Replaced flat `backends: [...]` list on frontends with an ordered `pools:`
list; each pool has a name and a map of backends with per-pool weights (0–100,
default 100). Pools express priority: first pool with a healthy backend wins.
- Removed global backend weight (was on the backend, now lives in the pool).
- Config validation enforces non-empty pools, non-empty pool names, weight
range, and consistent address families across all pools of a frontend.
- Added `PoolBackendInfo { name, weight }` and changed `PoolInfo.backends` from
`repeated string` to `repeated PoolBackendInfo` so weights are visible over
the API.
- Full interactive shell with readline, tab completion, and `?` inline help.
- Command tree parser (Walk) handles fixed keywords and dynamic slot nodes;
prefix matching with exact-match priority.
- Commands: `show version/frontends/frontend/backends/backend/healthchecks/
healthcheck`, `set backend <name> pause|resume`, `quit`/`exit`.
- `show frontend` output is hierarchical (pools → backends) with per-backend
weights and `[disabled]` notation; pool section uses fixed-width formatting
so ANSI color codes don't corrupt tabwriter alignment.
- `-color` flag (default true) wraps static field labels in dark-blue ANSI;
works correctly with tabwriter because all labels carry identical-length
escape sequences.
- `cmd/version.go` package holds `version`, `commit`, `date` vars set at build
time via `-ldflags -X`.
- `make build` / `make build-amd64` / `make build-arm64` all inject
`VERSION=0.1.1`, `COMMIT_HASH` (from `git rev-parse --short HEAD`), and
`DATE` (UTC ISO-8601).
- `maglevc` prints version on interactive startup and exposes `show version`.
- `maglevd` logs version/commit/date at startup; `-version` flag prints and exits.
- `doHTTPProbe` was building a `https://` target URL even though TLS was already
applied to the connection inside `inNetns`. `http.Transport` then wrapped the
connection in a second TLS layer, producing "http: server gave HTTP response
to HTTPS client". Fixed by always using `http://` in the target URL.
- Added `TestHTTPSProbe` using `httptest.NewTLSServer` to cover the full path.
- New `docs/user-guide.md`: maglevd flags/signals, maglevc commands, shell
completion, and command-tree parser walkthrough.
- New `docs/healthchecks.md`: state machine, rise/fall model, probe intervals,
all transition events with log examples.
- Updated `docs/config-guide.md`: pools design, removed global weight from
backends, updated all examples.
- Updated `README.md`: packaging table, build paths, corrected binary locations
(`/usr/sbin/maglevd`), config filename (`.yaml`).
- `debian/` directory contains `control.in`, `maglevd.service`, `default.maglev`,
`maglev.yaml` (example config), `conffiles`, `postinst`, `prerm`.
- `debian/build-deb.sh` stages a package tree and calls `dpkg-deb`; emits
`build/vpp-maglev_<version>~<commit>_<arch>.deb`.
- Cross-compiles for amd64 and arm64 in one `make pkg-deb` invocation.
- `maglevd` installed to `/usr/sbin/`, `maglevc` to `/usr/bin/`.
- Service reads `MAGLEV_CONFIG` from `/etc/default/maglev`
(default: `/etc/maglev/maglev.yaml`).
- Man pages `maglevd(8)` and `maglevc(1)` live in `docs/` and are gzip'd into
the package.
- All build output goes to `build/<arch>/`; `build/` is gitignored.
