Summary

The hand-written unsafe that a received datagram reaches in moq-sock and moq-uring, their control-message (cmsg) walks, now has invariant fuzz targets and runs under Miri. This finishes Peer-reachable unsafe and deletes the quest.

  • sock_cmsg (rs/moq-sock/src/udp/fuzz.rs, shim in rs/moq-sock/fuzz/): builds well-formed control messages from the input, laid out as the kernel lays them (header, payload, CMSG_SPACE padding). It can then append a malformed end: a header whose length is too short, a length that runs past the buffer (up to usize::MAX), or fewer bytes than a header, followed by arbitrary bytes. It walks both buffers through decode_recv (cmsg::Iter plus ControlMetadata::decode) and as an error-queue read (LinuxError::decode, whose offender address an ICMP sender chooses). It asserts each walk equals a reference model that reads every field at its byte offset rather than through the C structs, and that the stride is never zero.
  • uring_cmsg (rs/moq-uring/src/udp/fuzz.rs): checks RecvMeta::parse the same way, against its own model. moq-uring's semantics differ: a recognized but invalid message clears its field. It reuses moq-sock's input format and seeds (moq_sock::udp::fuzz::Control), so one input replays against both walks.
  • Miri: sh/rs/miri.sh adds moq-sock and moq-uring to the strict pass (Stacked Borrows plus the leak check). The pass covers the cmsg unit tests, the error-queue decode test, moq-uring's parse tests, and each crate's seeds_pass, which drives every seed's message kinds and malformed ends through the unsafe walk.
  • Wiring: both targets get a row in Nightly's fuzz matrix. The two *-fuzz crates are added to the workspace and to the fuzz-crate exclude lists in rs/justfile, sh/rs/select.sh, sh/rs/coverage.sh, and their tests. They also go into the hakari excludes, and nix/Cargo.nix is regenerated. Each crate's fuzz::tests::regressions replays fuzz/regressions/ on stable in just check.
  • Bug fix: moq-sock kept a zero (or, cast to usize, a huge negative) UDP_GRO size as RecvMeta::stride. moq-tokio's endpoint splits a GRO batch with split_to(meta.stride.min(len)) (rs/moq-tokio/src/quic/driver/endpoint.rs:961), which never ends on a zero stride. moq-sock now keeps the datagram's length unless the size is positive, which matches moq-uring. The kernel does not send a zero today, so this is defensive.
  • Windows: the same zero-stride guard applies to UDP_COALESCED_INFO in rs/moq-sock/src/udp/windows.rs, so the positive-stride guarantee holds on every platform.
  • Incidental fix: sh/rs/select.sh sorted the required features with the host's locale, so the order differed from its Python test's off the C locale. It now sorts with LC_ALL=C.

Public API: moq-sock and moq-uring each gain a fuzz feature and a udp::fuzz module, documented as test support that tracks internals (moq-sock's on 64-bit Linux only, moq-uring's on 64-bit). Nothing changes without the feature. Wire: none.

Decisions

Taken by the agent under /quest-afk, for the maintainer's review:

  • moq-c is out of scope. This follows the newer Plan in moq-dev/moq#8637: moq-c's unsafe is the C ABI, which its C caller reaches, not a peer. Rejected: fuzzing moq-c's FFI surface here, which tests caller misuse rather than peer input.
  • One input format for both targets, owned by moq-sock. moq-uring already depends on moq-sock; its fuzz feature enables moq-sock/fuzz. Rejected: a copy of the builder in each crate (about 150 duplicated lines, and the formats could drift apart).
  • The error-queue decode is in sock_cmsg. It shares cmsg::Iter, and an ICMP sender picks its offender address. Rejected: leaving it out (unsafe that peer packets reach, with no target) or giving it a separate target (same buffers, same walk).
  • Fix the zero stride in moq-sock rather than in moq-tokio's split loop, so every RecvMeta consumer gets a positive stride, as moq-uring's already do.
  • Miri runs the seeds, not the regression files. Miri's isolation refuses file reads, so regressions is cfg_attr(miri, ignore). Rejected: -Zmiri-disable-isolation for the whole pass.
  • Decided 2026-11-14 (maintainer, /quest-complete): ✅ merge with these decisions (rejected: skip, delete).

Validation

  • just check passes.
  • Stable: cargo test -p moq-sock --lib udp:: (15 pass) and cargo test -p moq-uring --lib udp:: (20 pass).
  • Miri (fenix nightly 2026-11-13): sh/rs/miri.sh -E 'package(moq-sock) | package(moq-uring)' ran 12 tests with 12 passing in the strict pass.
  • Fuzzing: cargo fuzz run for 300 s each, with -timeout=10. sock_cmsg: 2.88M runs, cov 352, ft 1277, no finding. uring_cmsg: 3.51M runs, cov 259, ft 1096, no finding.
  • Mutation check that the invariants catch bugs that don't panic, 120 s each, both reverted afterward:
    • With the zero-stride fix reverted, sock_cmsg failed the model comparison on the 2-byte input ACk= (stride: 0 vs 1500).
    • With moq-uring's walk changed to skip a malformed header instead of stopping, uring_cmsg failed the model comparison (the junk after the header set ecn).
  • After merging main: just check passes. The Windows guard is not compiled locally (no Windows std on this host); Windows builds nightly in platform.yml.
  • just rs fuzz itself needs rustup, which this host lacks, so I ran cargo fuzz directly with the README's environment prefix. The fuzz-seeds examples were run directly (42 seeds each).

Caused by

No single PR: the zero UDP_GRO stride is quinn-udp's behavior, carried since the import in moq-dev/moq#4913.

… them under Miri

moq-sock's `sock_cmsg` and moq-uring's `uring_cmsg` targets build well-formed
control messages from the input, lay them out as the kernel does, optionally
append a malformed header and junk, and assert each walk reads exactly what a
byte-level reference model reads from the well-formed messages. The moq-sock
target also walks the buffer as an error-queue read (`LinuxError::decode`).
Both crates' walk tests and seeds join `just rs miri`, and both targets join
Nightly's fuzz matrix.

moq-sock kept a zero or negative `UDP_GRO` size as the stride, which would spin
moq-tokio's GRO split forever; it now keeps the datagram's length, as
moq-uring already did.

Reviewed changes

This review covers the new invariant fuzz targets for the receive control-message walks, the zero-stride fix, and the CI, Miri, and workspace wiring around them.

  • sock_cmsg target: Control::parse builds kernel-laid-out control buffers with optional malformed ends. sock_cmsg checks decode_recv and LinuxError::decode against a model that reads fields at their byte offsets. I compared the model's offsets and length gates against ControlMetadata::decode and LinuxError::decode, and they match.
  • uring_cmsg target: checks RecvMeta::parse against its own model, using the rule that an invalid message clears its field. It reuses moq-sock's input format and seeds through moq-uring's fuzz = ["moq-sock/fuzz"] feature and a dev-dependency.
  • Zero UDP_GRO stride: ControlMetadata::decode now keeps the datagram length unless the size is positive. Before, a zero stall split_to(meta.stride.min(len)) in moq-tokio's endpoint.
  • Miri: sh/rs/miri.sh now runs the cmsg, error-queue, and udp::fuzz tests for both crates in the strict pass. I confirmed that every test name the filter matches exists.
  • Wiring: adds workspace members, hakari and no_fuzz excludes (with their Python tests), a regenerated nix/Cargo.nix, Nightly fuzz-matrix rows, and fuzz-seeds examples that sh/rs/fuzz.sh finds by shim path. It also makes select.sh sort with LC_ALL=C.

Walkthrough

The change adds fuzz targets for UDP control-message parsing in moq-sock and moq-uring. It adds input generation, reference models, seed export, and regression replay. GRO stride decoding now rejects zero, negative, or unconvertible values. Workspace, coverage, Miri, and Nightly configuration includes the new fuzz packages and targets. Related quest documentation and links are updated.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 52021

This adds fuzzing and Miri coverage for the UDP control-message parsing and fixes a zero or negative GRO size being kept as the receive stride. Production impact is limited to that small fix. Two minor follow-ups remain: a README command that fails on a fresh checkout, and the libfuzzer-sys dependency declaration that does not follow the workspace convention.

Explanation

The title "test(sock,uring): fuzz the receive cmsg walks against a model and run them under Miri" names the main change. The PR adds fuzz targets for the moq-sock and moq-uring control-message walks, checks them against reference models, and adds both crates to the Miri pass. The title does not mention the UDP_GRO stride fix, but that is a secondary change, so the title is specific and accurate.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description states the PR makes the hand-written unsafe in moq-sock and moq-uring cmsg walks covered by invariant fuzz targets and Miri, and it lists the concrete changes: the sock_cmsg and uring_cmsg targets, the Miri script update, Nightly matrix wiring, the zero UDP_GRO stride fix, and the select.sh locale fix. These match the changeset and the objectives, so the description is clearly related and specific.

Inherit libfuzzer-sys from the workspace.

This external dependency declares its version locally. Add libfuzzer-sys = "0.4" to [workspace.dependencies], then use { workspace = true } here. This keeps the fuzz dependency under the required workspace ownership. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

✅ No new issues found. The Windows zero-stride gap from the prior review is closed.

Reviewed changes

This review covers the commits since the prior Pullfrog review at 5202103: a merge from main and one fix commit.

  • Windows UDP_COALESCED_INFO guard: rs/moq-sock/src/udp/windows.rs now sets stride = segment only when segment > 0. Otherwise it keeps the datagram's own length, as the unix UDP_GRO arm and moq-uring already do. With this, every RecvMeta consumer gets a positive stride on all platforms.
  • Fuzz README regression step: both fuzz READMEs now run mkdir -p rs/<crate>/fuzz/regressions/<target> before copying a crash input, so the documented step also works in a fresh checkout.
  • Merge from main: the quest cross-links now point at quest/m5/errqueue-truncation.md and quest/m5/crossbeam-pin-fence.md. The remaining range-diff noise in the deleted wire-fuzz-coverage.md comes from the rebase.

Reviewed changes

This review covers the commits since the prior Pullfrog review at 10ff9ed. That is one merge from main, which changes none of this PR's own lines.

  • Merged main: the only differences are on the base side. rs send-depth left Nightly's recipe list, and the quic-sim link in quest/m1/README.md now reads "(landed)". The PR's fuzz targets, the zero-stride guards on Unix and Windows, the Miri wiring, and its quest edits are unchanged.
