Deleting a marker while its node was stopped, then starting the node, recreated
an empty pcap. Root cause: delete_marker_capture removed the uBridge filter and
the pcap file but not the marker spec cached on the port NIO (nio.markers) —
the data source _ubridge_apply_markers reads on node start. The stale spec
reinstalled the marker when uBridge came up.
This was a regression from switching stop_marker off update() (which re-sent
the NIO and implicitly refreshed nio.markers) to the fine-grained
node.delete(/markers/{name}) path.
Fix: make the delete port-aware so the compute can locate the NIO. The DELETE
marker route becomes /adapters/{a}/ports/{p}/markers/{name} across all six
node types; the handler resolves the NIO via get_nio and passes it to
delete_marker_capture, which now pops the marker from nio.markers. get_nio
works regardless of uBridge state, so the stopped-node case is covered. The
controller's stop_marker targets the capture side's adapter/port.
_ubridge_apply_markers now installs only markers not already on the bridge
(uBridge's reset_packet_filters preserves mark filters), so an NIO update no
longer re-adds — and reopens — sibling markers' pcaps. _stop_ubridge clears
_marker_filter_bridges so a node restart re-installs everything (the map would
otherwise keep stale entries pointing at a fresh, empty uBridge).
Deleting or updating a marker no longer triggers a full NIO reapply
(reset_packet_filters + re-add), which closed/reopened every sibling
marker's pcap via uBridge. Instead operate on single filters:
- stop_marker: bridge delete_packet_filter + unlink the pcap (works with
the node stopped; filter removal is skipped, the file is still deleted).
- update_marker: bpf/tag/direction → rebuild just that filter (delete + add);
enabled → instant toggle; color/highlight_duration → stored only.
- compute delete_marker_capture / rebuild_marker_filter + per-node routes
(DELETE /markers/{name}, PUT /markers/{name}/rebuild) + MarkerRebuild schema.
IOU overrides _ubridge_delete_marker_filter for iol_bridge; rebuild reuses
the already-overridden add/delete/set, so IOU needs no rebuild override.
The _marker_filter_bridges dict was keyed by marker name alone, so when one
node hosted the same filter name on several links (IUOL-BRIDGE per node with
many bays/units, or a multi-interface router), successive apply calls
overwrote earlier entries. pause_marker_definition then toggled only the last
recorded bridge/location — other copies stayed active and kept emitting.
Key by (name, link_id) so each copy is independent, and iterate all matching
entries in _ubridge_set_marker_filter_state (both generic bridge and IOU
iol_bridge override). Toggle route existence checks also iterate matching
names. Tests updated.
- compute (test_base_node.py): set_marker_filter_state on/off command,
marker pause/resume command, and apply issues enable_packet_filter off
for a disabled marker (+ records the name->bridge map).
- controller (test_marker.py): _markers_for_node keeps disabled markers
and carries enabled; update_marker enabled-only hits the toggle route
(not NIO rebuild) while a bpf change still rebuilds; pause/resume fan
out to capture nodes.
