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design and have been superseded by the NIO flow.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
When a Docker node is deleted, the compute node's DELETE endpoint only calls
node.delete() which removes the working directory but does not remove the node
object from the project's self._nodes collection. This causes ghost nodes to
remain in memory.
When project variables are updated, the code iterates through ALL nodes in
memory and calls update() on them. For ghost nodes with VNC configuration, this
triggers VNC startup attempts, resulting in 60-second timeouts waiting for X11
socket files that don't exist.
The fix adds await node.project.remove_node(node) to ensure the node object is
removed from the project's node collection when deleted, matching the behavior
of other node types that use manager.delete_node() which already calls
project.remove_node().
This resolves the issue where updating project variables after deleting a VNC
Docker container would timeout with: 'x11 socket file "/tmp/.X11-unix/X100"
does not exist'
Fixes issue #2755
Remove all SPICE WebSocket-related code due to frontend dependency issues
with spice-html5 library (missing RSAKey/BigInteger implementations).
Changes:
- Remove start_spice_websocket_console() from BaseNode
- Remove SPICE WebSocket endpoints from QEMU and Docker compute APIs
- Remove SPICE WebSocket proxy endpoint from controller API
- Remove WebSocket subprotocol handling from authentication layers
- Remove SPICE documentation
The SPICE console type remains functional for direct connections,
but WebSocket proxy support has been removed.

Add WebSocket-based console support for SPICE protocol, enabling
browser-based graphical console access with enhanced features
like clipboard sharing, USB redirection, and audio streaming.
Changes:
- Add start_spice_websocket_console() method in BaseNode for SPICE
WebSocket to TCP bridging with bidirectional binary forwarding
- Add /console/spice WebSocket endpoints in QEMU and Docker compute APIs
- Add /console/spice WebSocket proxy endpoint in controller API
- Add comprehensive API documentation in docs/features/
Supported console types:
- spice: Basic SPICE protocol support
- spice+agent: SPICE with spice-vdagent for enhanced features
Architecture:
- Browser WebSocket → Controller (JWT + RBAC) → Compute (Basic Auth)
- No external websockify processes required
- Consistent with existing VNC WebSocket implementation
Add VNC console WebSocket endpoints for Docker and QEMU nodes:
- Add /console/vnc WebSocket endpoint to compute API (Docker & QEMU)
- Add /console/vnc WebSocket endpoint to controller API
- Implement start_vnc_websocket_console() in BaseNode
- Forward VNC WebSocket traffic between controller and compute layers
The implementation provides bidirectional WebSocket to TCP forwarding
for VNC protocol (RFB) connections, allowing browser-based VNC console
access to containers and VMs.
