Constants

const (
	// HopLen is the size of a HopField in bytes.
	HopLen = 12
	// MacLen is the size of the MAC of each HopField.
	MacLen = 6
)

const InfoLen = 8

InfoLen is the size of an InfoField in bytes.

Functions

func ExpTimeToDuration

func ExpTimeToDuration(expTime uint8) time.Duration

ExpTimeToDuration calculates the relative expiration time in seconds. Note that for a 0 value ExpTime, the minimal duration is expTimeUnit.

func FullMAC

func FullMAC(h hash.Hash, info InfoField, hf HopField, buffer []byte) []byte

FullMAC calculates the HopField MAC according to https://scion.docs.anapaya.net/en/latest/protocols/scion-header.html#hop-field-mac-computation this method does not modify info or hf. Modifying the provided buffer after calling this function may change the returned HopField MAC. In contrast to MAC(), FullMAC returns all the 16 bytes instead of only 6 bytes of the MAC.

func MAC

func MAC(h hash.Hash, info InfoField, hf HopField, buffer []byte) [MacLen]byte

MAC calculates the HopField MAC according to https://scion.docs.anapaya.net/en/latest/protocols/scion-header.html#hop-field-mac-computation this method does not modify info or hf. Modifying the provided buffer after calling this function may change the returned HopField MAC.

func MACInput

func MACInput(segID uint16, timestamp uint32, expTime uint8,
	consIngress, consEgress uint16, buffer []byte)

MACInput returns the MAC input data block with the following layout:

 0                   1                   2                   3

func RegisterPath

func RegisterPath(pathMeta Metadata)

RegisterPath registers a new SCION path type globally. The PathType passed in must be unique, or a runtime panic will occur.

func StrictDecoding

func StrictDecoding(strict bool)

StrictDecoding enables or disables strict path decoding. If enabled, unknown path types fail to decode. If disabled, unknown path types are decoded into a raw path that keeps the encoded path around for re-serialization.

Strict parsing is enabled by default.

Experimental: This function is experimental and might be subject to change.

Types

type HopField

type HopField struct {
	// IngressRouterAlert flag. If the IngressRouterAlert is set, the ingress router (in
	// construction direction) will process the L4 payload in the packet.
	IngressRouterAlert bool
	// EgressRouterAlert flag. If the EgressRouterAlert is set, the egress router (in
	// construction direction) will process the L4 payload in the packet.
	EgressRouterAlert bool
	// Exptime is the expiry time of a HopField. The field is 1-byte long, thus there are 256
	// different values available to express an expiration time. The expiration time expressed by
	// the value of this field is relative, and an absolute expiration time in seconds is computed
	// in combination with the timestamp field (from the corresponding info field) as follows
	//
	// Timestamp + (1 + ExpTime) * (24*60*60)/256
	ExpTime uint8
	// ConsIngress is the ingress interface ID in construction direction.
	ConsIngress uint16
	// ConsEgress is the egress interface ID in construction direction.
	ConsEgress uint16
	// Mac is the 6-byte Message Authentication Code to authenticate the HopField.
	Mac [MacLen]byte
}

HopField is the HopField used in the SCION and OneHop path types.
