Roadmap for future

• Near future
• • Finish fast performance research (with full end-to-end speeds, hopefully above 2Gbps)
• Next
• • Finish newloop based on the new performance research
• • Release stable fast version (newloop)
• • GUI peer settings (whitelist/blacklist, autoconnect, using seeds)
• • Seed servers (public internet)
• After that
• • Score counting
• • Route finding
• • Various usecases regarding small or big mesh
• • GUI official releases
• Later
• • Tokens
• • Support in GUI for all this functions

• More Multi-Threading tuning
• • Written lots of current and older results on this Wiki, especially NetworkSpeedThreads NetworkSpeedCrypto and older NetworkSpeed10Gb
• • Tests on affinity - results
• • Tests on crypto - various automated tests re optimial threads / message size
• • Keeping use of TSAN/ASAN sanitizers
• • RPC remote test, and python script to automate it (to tell other computer to spam us at given MTU size)
• • scripting some graphs for crypto, crypto vs mtu, crypto vs threads
• 10 Gbps tests
• • On Linux
• • On Windows
• GUI - peer menu, add peer window, icons, RPC works, stub of few command (add, del, ban; draft for: unban, discover)

Done 2017-10-16

• Tools for Multi-Threading

• • TSAN, ASAN sanitizers more integrated
• • Debugged few MT mistakes/UBs, created utils to work on them (e.g. to trigger tsan - socket + variable; socket+strand)
• • mutex vs strand tests
• • threads count, affinity, tests

• GUI

• • Can connect RPC, change RPC target
• • Add Peers / Del Peer
• • works on MacOS X, and on Windows

• RPC

• • JSON protocol extending (events, id, re)
• • Add Peer / Del Peer

• Security

• • process CAP flags / set UID - Linux - we now properly drop root ASAP, and retain only needed privileges and drop then a bit later too

• Fast multi-threaded Wire (p2p) and TUN support

• • tools to research speeds (send/receive, net model, bench)
• • setting thread affinity
• • researching speeds, settings - https://github.com/yedinocommunity/galaxy42/wiki/NetworkSpeed

• Supporting stable network (other prefix, fd43...)

• Various fixes

• Platforms

• • Windows - MSVC update
• • Supporting Kali Linux

• Internal and tests

• • Community wiki on github - https://github.com/yedinocommunity/galaxy42/wiki
• • own Rocketchat https://chat.meshnet.pl/ - also via Yedino - https://g.chat.meshnet.pl
• • Testing with 10gbps LAN - TestDevicesNX3031_HP
