Markers now follow exactly the same apply pattern as packet filters:
state lives in Link._markers, application goes through NIO
(update() -> PUT /nio -> _ubridge_apply_markers). The former
immediate-apply REST endpoints (/markers/start, /markers/stop on
the compute side) and the per-node start_marker/stop_marker methods
are removed — they were a legacy of the original capture-inspired
design and have been superseded by the NIO flow.
Changes:
- controller/udp_link: start_marker/stop_marker/update_marker now
set _markers state + call self.update() (mirrors update_filters).
Removed _marker_capture_nodes runtime dict and its helpers.
- controller/project: _create_link_from_topology_data restores
_markers directly from persisted data (with BPF validation,
like filter reload). No long calls start_marker during load.
- compute: _ubridge_apply_markers swallows BPF compile errors
(warn+skip), matching _ubridge_apply_filters behaviour so a
single bad expression cannot break link creation / node restart.
- Removed: /markers/start,stop endpoints (6 handlers across
vpcs/qemu/docker route files), node start_marker/stop_marker
methods (3 VM files), _ubridge_delete_marker_filter,
_marker_capture_nodes, MarkerDelete schema.
Net: ~280 lines of dead code removed; marker and packet filter now
share a single, unified apply path via the NIO.
Mirror the packet-filter lifecycle: marker specs now live on the NIO
(next to filters), ride in link_data from controller to compute on
every NIO create/update, and are reapplied by _ubridge_apply_markers
in add_ubridge_udp_connection (bridge creation / node restart) and
update_ubridge_udp_connection (NIO update — following the preceding
reset_packet_filters so markers survive filter changes).
Changes:
- NIO / NIOUDP: _markers property + asdict
- schemas/compute/nios.py: UDPNIO.markers field
- base_manager.create_nio: nio.markers from settings
- PUT /nio routes (vpcs/qemu/docker): nio.markers update
- base_node: _ubridge_apply_markers(bridge_name, nio) iterates
nio.markers, computes pcap path, calls _ubridge_add_marker_filter
+ MarkerManager.register; called after _ubridge_apply_filters
- controller udp_link: _get_node_markers + _markers_for_node (route
by capture_node_id); markers in create() and update() link_data
- /markers/start,stop endpoints: mirror spec onto nio.markers so
the marker survives a subsequent node stop/start without a PUT
- tests: add markers field to NIO data expectations
This covers:
- Node restart: NIO persists, add_ubridge_udp_connection re-applies
- Filter update: reset wipes markers, _ubridge_apply_markers re-adds
- Project reload: create() carries markers in link_data → create_nio
- Immediate create: endpoint sets nio.markers immediately
