3 - trust: need *fast* way to check/update trust in peers
4 (async peerinfo would not be right; certainly not with the current API)
6 - If the topology daemon crashes, peers that were put on the
7 blacklist with transport will never be removed from it (until
8 transport service dies); we should use the blacklist notification
9 API to learn about the exact set of blacklisted peers at all times
10 (FIXME: the transport_api implementation of blacklisting
11 also does not work nicely for this since it won't let us know about
12 disconnect-reconnect events and the implicit whitelisting
13 that might happen here; that's not so bad since we will
14 re-blacklist on pre-connect attempts anyway, so this is
15 a minor issue; OTOH, we might want to be more explicit about
16 allowing/forbidding connects on pre-connect to avoid
17 entering connect attempts to just be blacklisted shortly afterwards).
18 - needs more testing (especially F2F topology)
20 - support recursive download even if filename is NULL and we hence
21 do not generate files on disk (use temp_filename)
22 - bound parallelism (# fs downloads)
23 - distinguish in performance tracking and event signalling between
24 downloads that are actually running and those that are merely in the queue
25 - persistence support (publish, unindex, search, download)
26 - active migration support (in fs or in datastore or new daemon?)
27 - gnunet-service-fs (hot-path routing, load-based routing, nitpicks)
28 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:208]: member 'LocalGetContext::results_bf_size' is never used
29 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:501]: member 'PendingRequest::used_pids_size' is never used
30 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:654]: member 'ConnectedPeer::last_client_replies' is never used
31 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:669]: member 'ConnectedPeer::avg_delay' is never used
32 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:675]: member 'ConnectedPeer::avg_priority' is never used
33 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:688]: member 'ConnectedPeer::pending_requests' is never used
34 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:694]: member 'ConnectedPeer::last_p2p_replies_woff' is never used
35 - [gnunet-service-fs.c:700]: member 'ConnectedPeer::last_client_replies_woff' is never used
37 + active reply route caching design & implementation of service; gap extension!
39 - good to have for transport/DV evaluation!
41 - write DV API (need to move declarations from dv_api.c to gnunet_dv_service.h!)
42 - implement DV service
43 - implement DV library (looks done)
44 - implement DV transport plugin
46 - implement performance tests
48 - only connect() sockets that are ready (select()) [Nils]
49 [On W32, we need to select after calling socket before doing connect etc.]
51 - use g_main_context_set_poll_func to integrate GTK with GNUnet Scheduler!? (YUCK!)
52 - OR: add scheduler API to enable integration with GTK main loop instead of doing our own select
53 - use g_main_context_pending, g_main_context_query / g_main_context_check / g_main_context_dispatch
54 and NEVER g_main_loop_run (can this be done? might be the clean way to do this! But how
55 to integrate this with "gtk_main"? Docu says:
56 "It's OK to use the GLib main loop directly instead of gtk_main(), though it involves
57 slightly more typing. See GMainLoop in the GLib documentation."
58 => so maybe it "just works"?
60 - design & implement new setup tool
64 - good to have for DV/DHT evaluation!
66 - implement DHT service
68 - implement performance tests
72 - need to get rid of synchronous API for service starts (cause all kinds of problems)
73 [=> eliminate for need to tell ARM about service starts most of the time!] [Safey]
74 - better tracking of which config changes actually need to cause process restarts by ARM.
75 - listen for requests to discover dependencies between services (and avoid
76 having to explicitly program start requests)
77 - better crash management (attach debugging support, capture and analyze
78 debug output, detect random vs. deterministic crashes)
81 - datastore reservation (publishing)
82 - search: availability probes
83 - location URIs (publish, search, download)
84 - non-anonymous FS service (needs DHT)
85 + DHT integration for search
86 + CS-DHT-functions (DHT-put of LOC)
87 + P2P-functions (DHT-get)
88 - collection API & tests
89 + gnunet-pseudonym (collection support)
90 - implement FS performance tests
97 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
99 - modify configuration to allow controlling connections for non-local starts
100 - testbed creation with topology (needs working F2F topology)
102 - implement testcases for distributed testing
103 - test basic peer re-configure
104 - test topology creation
105 - test churn generation
106 - consider changing API for peer-group termination to
107 call continuation when done
109 - finalize API design
112 - integration with transport service
113 * MYSQL database backends: [CG]
119 - expand bibliography
120 - convert documentation pages to books
121 - update books (especially for developers)
122 - create good Drupal theme for GNUnet
123 - make a NICE download page and figure out how to
124 enable developers to publish TGZs nicely
125 - port "contact" page
126 - add content type for "todo" items?
127 * POSTGRES database backends: [CG]
130 * Determine RC bugs and fix those!
134 - SMTP transport backend
135 - HTTPS transport backend
136 + improved HTTPS support in MHD
138 - Implement method of learning our external addresses from
139 other peers; need some kind of threshold-based
140 scheme, limiting both the total number of addresses that we accept
141 this way as well as requiring multiple confirmations; also, we
142 should possibly try to confirm that the given address works for
143 us ourselves (loopback-style) before adding it to the list
144 + we may be able to simplify WELCOME messages (no need to add
145 addresses there anymore, but may help to learn them there anyway...).
146 + we probably want some kind of voting/counting for learning IP addresses
147 (maybe including IP addresses in ads proportional to how often others
148 report them? we at least need some protection against >64k HELLOs!),
149 + provide a way to give the user a list of "learned" IP addresses and
150 a way to easily "veto" addresses off the list!
151 => If MiM attacker uses vetoed address, blacklist the specific IP for
152 the presumed neighbour!
153 - implement gnunet-transport (transport configurator / tester)
154 - UPnP-based IP detection
155 (Note: build library always, build service when libxml2/etc. are available)
157 - Remove KBlocks in gnunet-unindex (see discussion with Kenneth Almquist on gnunet-devs in 9/2009)
158 - Allow checking of presence of search results and/or content via command-line tools
159 (add options to gnunet-search / gnunet-download to limit search to local peer)
161 - expire 'ancient' HELLOs (those without valid addresses AND that
162 we have not 'used' (for their public keys) in a while; need a way
163 to track actual 'use')
164 - make sue we also trigger notifications whenever HELLOs expire
171 - should use hash map to look up sessions
173 - should use BIO instead of mmap
175 - need to periodically probe latency/transport cost changes & possibly switch transport
176 - instantly filter addresses from *other* peers that
177 are *equal* to our own address + port (i.e., localhost:2086). We
178 no longer filter those for outgoing (helps with loopback testing
179 and keeps the code clean), but we should filter strictly *impossible*
180 incoming addresses! This is for efficiency, not correctness.
181 - should use hash map to look up Neighbours
183 - 'server' uses 'GNUNET_PEERINFO_iterate', should probably switch to notification API
184 (for more instant / up-to-date hostlists at lower cost)
186 - check for duplicates on insertion (currently, same content is frequently
187 stored again [seen with KBLOCKS and SBLOCKS]!)
191 - repeatedly resolve hostname and look up interfaces to determine our own IP
192 - [./transport/plugin_transport_tcp.c:391]: (style) struct or union member 'Plugin::address_update_task' is never used (related to issue above)
194 - [./transport/gnunet-service-transport.c:173]: (style) struct or union member 'TransportPlugin::rebuild' is never used (related to TCP not refreshing external addresses?)
196 - add stats (# bytes available, # bytes used, # PUTs, # GETs, # GETs satisfied)
198 - support inline data in directories for recursive file downloads (fs_download)
