aioquic multiplexing qlog showed:
t=31424: still receiving STREAM frames
t=31493: PTO timer expired
t=31507: connection_closed (owner: local)
We were still actively transferring when our 30s timeout fired. The
multiplexing testcase generates many small files (3431 sim packets
captured for the run) and download throughput on Mac+Rosetta is
dominated by per-write filesystem overhead in the Docker volume mount.
60s gives enough headroom without making fast-completing tests slower.
Doesn't fix any real protocol issue — just lets the test budget match
the workload.
If multiplexing still fails after this, the next investigation is the
sequential `.map { it.await() }` pattern in runTransferTest: a single
hung stream blocks the await chain even though others completed.

aioquic still 0/7 after the close-race fix because there's a deeper
issue. QlogWriter.writeLineLocked() called writer.flush() on every
event. On macOS Docker Desktop the filesystem is virtualized and
per-event flush is multi-millisecond. The qlog hooks fire from
QuicConnectionWriter.drainOutbound() which runs INSIDE
conn.lock.withLock { ... } on the send loop. Every flush stalls
that lock; the receive loop blocks indefinitely trying to acquire
it for feedDatagram().
Symptom matched: client.sqlog showed our ClientHello packet_sent
at t=400ms, then NOTHING for the rest of the test — no
packet_received (server's response never decoded), no PTO probe
(send loop stuck behind disk IO).
Fix: remove per-event flush. close() flushes once at the end of
the run, which gives us the trace for everything except a hard
JVM kill mid-test (acceptable trade). BufferedWriter still buffers
in-memory; we don't lose events, just don't sync them to disk
synchronously.
Should restore aioquic to 5/7. picoquic was already 5/7 because
its server-response timing apparently let our send loop drain
between flushes; aioquic's faster turnaround tripped the lock more
reliably.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
aioquic full-matrix run came back 0/7 with stack traces:
java.io.IOException: Stream closed
at QlogWriter.writeLineLocked(QlogWriter.kt:289)
at QlogWriter.onPacketSent(QlogWriter.kt:126)
at QuicConnectionWriter.emitQlogSent(...)
The send loop runs concurrently with InteropClient's teardown sequence:
1. driver.close() — launches CLOSING → CLOSED async
2. qlogWriter?.close() — closes the file
3. delay(50)
4. scope.cancel() — kills coroutines
Between (2) and (4), the send loop is still alive and emits
packet_sent for the CONNECTION_CLOSE Initial. QlogWriter.writeLineLocked
threw IOException into the send loop, propagated up, took down the
connection — including connections that had completed transfer
successfully.
Fix: QlogWriter swallows post-close IOExceptions silently. An observer
must NOT break the connection it's observing — that's the whole NoOp
contract. Adds @Volatile closed flag, latches it both on explicit
close() and on the first IOException; subsequent emits short-circuit.
picoquic was 5/7 (predictable: M + S still open) so the regression was
specifically aioquic-timing-sensitive. With this fix aioquic should
return to 5/7 too.

Agent B's QlogWriter previously lived only in :quic's jvmTest scope,
hooked into the standalone InteropRunner. Brings it into :quic-interop
proper:
- QlogWriter.kt + QlogWriterTest.kt copied into :quic-interop with
package com.vitorpamplona.quic.interop.runner.
- Jackson dep added to :quic-interop's build.gradle.kts.
- InteropClient reads $QLOGDIR (the runner sets it inside the
container per docker-compose.yml). When set, opens a QlogWriter
at <QLOGDIR>/client.sqlog, passes as QuicConnection.qlogObserver,
closes on every exit path (handshake_failed / udp_failed /
transfer_timeout / ok).
- QUIC_INTEROP_DEBUG=1 now prints qlogdir alongside the other env
fields.
Net effect: any future runner-driven test failure dumps a structured
qlog file the user can drag straight into qvis (qvis.quictools.info)
to see frame-by-frame what the client decided to do. The retry test
failure on aioquic + picoquic that we still need to debug now produces
a usable artifact.
NOTE: the QlogWriter copy in :quic's jvmTest stays in place as the
helper for the standalone InteropRunner main(). Slight duplication;
acceptable while :quic-interop is its own module.

Two corrections from the user's just-completed run:
1. The runner does not have a 'versionnegotiation' testcase. Available
list output: handshake, transfer, longrtt, chacha20, multiplexing,
retry, resumption, zerortt, http3, blackhole, keyupdate, ecn,
amplificationlimit, handshakeloss, transferloss, handshakecorruption,
transfercorruption, ipv6, v2, rebind-port, rebind-addr,
connectionmigration. (`v2` exists but tests QUIC v2 protocol
support — we're v1-only, so it would correctly fail.)
The :quic-side VN code from agent A stays as defensive support for
any future server that throws a VN at us; just no testcase wires
it up.
2. run-matrix.sh is NOT safe to run concurrently. The runner's
docker-compose.yml hardcodes container_name: sim/server/client —
Docker enforces those globally regardless of COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME.
Documented the limitation + the recommended sequential loop in
the script's comments.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Two integrations from overnight agents:
1. agent C — peer-uni-stream drainer for the H3 multiplexing fix.
Http3GetClient.init() now takes a CoroutineScope and calls
conn.drainPeerInitiatedUniStreamsIntoBlackHole(scope) to consume +
discard the server's three uni streams (control, qpack-encoder,
qpack-decoder). RFC 9114 §6.2 mandates the client read these;
pre-fix their bytes accumulated in 64-chunk per-stream channels
until parser overflow tore down the connection with INTERNAL_ERROR
~4.5s into a multiplexing run.
2. agent A — versionnegotiation testcase wired into dispatch.
Adds the testcase to the runTransferTest route and threads
QuicVersion.FORCE_VERSION_NEGOTIATION as the initial version when
testcase=='versionnegotiation'. The QuicConnection's RFC 9000 §6
VN flow (applyVersionNegotiation) takes over from there, retrying
with v1 once the server replies with its supported list.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
The previous commit (e5bbf8509) switched ALPN per testcase based on
quic-interop-runner convention (h3 for http3/multiplexing, hq-interop
otherwise). That broke picoquic, which had been 4/4 green: picoquic-qns
strictly registers h3 ALPN and rejects hq-interop. Different servers
disagree on which ALPN they configure for the same testcase:
- quic-go-qns — strictly hq-interop for non-http3
- aioquic-qns — accepts either
- picoquic-qns — strictly h3 for all testcases
There's no per-testcase convention all peers honor. Right move is the
TLS-spec-supported one: offer BOTH h3 and hq-interop in the ClientHello,
let the server pick whichever matches its config, then dispatch the GET
client by `tls.negotiatedAlpn` after the handshake completes. http3 and
multiplexing still restrict to h3 only since they exercise H3 framing.
Brings picoquic back to fully green and should unblock quic-go for the
non-http3 testcases.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Two more testcases now dispatched through runTransferTest:
- retry — exercises the RFC 9000 §17.2.5 + RFC 9001 §5.8 Retry
handling that landed in d03e17981 / 671f9c705 (DCID swap,
integrity-tag verify, key re-derivation, token threading).
- ipv6 — same flow over an IPv6 socket. JDK's DatagramChannel.connect
handles the v6 address resolution natively; if anything
breaks it'll be an actual bug worth surfacing.
Plan doc updated to reflect Phase 3 landings (ALPN per testcase,
HqInteropGetClient, multi-stream FIN delivery fix) and the current
validation matrix across aioquic / picoquic / quic-go.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
quic-go-qns interop revealed two coupled gaps in our endpoint:
1. ALPN per testcase. The runner convention (followed strictly by
quic-go-qns, lazily by aioquic / picoquic) is:
- testcase 'http3' / 'multiplexing' → ALPN 'h3' (full HTTP/3)
- everything else → ALPN 'hq-interop'
(HTTP/0.9 over QUIC)
We had hardcoded 'h3'. quic-go closed every non-http3 connection
with CRYPTO_ERROR 0x178 (TLS no_application_protocol).
2. We had no HQ-interop client. HQ is dead simple: open bidi, send
`GET /path\r\n` raw, FIN, read body verbatim until server FINs.
No framing, no QPACK, no control stream.
This commit adds:
- GetClient interface + GetResponse data class extracted from
Http3GetClient so the runner code dispatches uniformly.
- HqInteropGetClient — the 30-line HQ-interop GET implementation.
- Alpn enum (H3, HQ_INTEROP) wired through main() → runTransferTest
→ QuicConnection.alpnList. Picked from the testcase name per the
convention above.
Validated locally: :quic-interop:test green; :quic-interop:installDist
clean. Will need a real run against quic-go to confirm the fix.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
The runner aggregates container stderr verbatim, which gave us a
~50-line block of routing setup, NIC checksum offload toggles,
container lifecycle messages, and the long Command: WAITFORSERVER=...
line for every single testcase. Useful once for triage; pure noise
across a multi-test matrix run.
Two changes:
- run-matrix.sh pipes the runner output through a grep -Ev filter
that drops the boilerplate while keeping outcomes (Test: ... took /
status, the summary table, server's Starting server, sim scenario
+ capture lines, and any Python tracebacks). VERBOSE=1 bypasses
the filter for debugging.
- InteropClient drops its own pre-test header dump unless
QUIC_INTEROP_DEBUG=1 is set; the per-GET success line goes silent
too — failures still print as before.
Net result: a passing test reduces from ~50 noise lines to ~5
meaningful lines (test name, time, status, summary table).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Two coupled bugs in our endpoint that the runner just surfaced:
1. The runner mounts \$CLIENT_DOWNLOADS to /downloads as a Docker volume
(per quic-interop-runner's docker-compose.yml `client.volumes`).
There is no DOWNLOADS env var. Our endpoint was reading \$DOWNLOADS,
getting null, and (for handshake/chacha20) skipping any download path.
Hard-code /downloads.
2. The handshake / chacha20 / handshakeloss testcases don't just verify
the handshake completes — they also require the requested file at
/downloads/<basename>. The runner's _check_files validator
reported "Missing files: ['intense-tremendous-firefighter']" while
our client side reported `handshake ok`. Route handshake-flavor
testcases through runTransferTest so the full H3 GET pipeline runs.
`chacha20` keeps the cipher-suite override (ChaCha20-only ClientHello);
`handshakeloss` reuses the same H3 flow against a lossy sim.
Also drops the now-dead runHandshakeTest + parseFirstTarget helpers.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
The quic-interop-runner exposes several testcases that drive the same
client logic but vary the network conditions injected by the ns-3 sim.
These don't need new client code on our side — they exercise the
existing handshake / transfer paths under loss / corruption / high-RTT /
cross-traffic, which is exactly the bug-finding signal we want.
Aliases added:
- transferloss, transfercorruption, longrtt, goodput, crosstraffic
→ transfer (H3 GET against varying sim configs)
- handshakeloss → handshake
Plan doc now lists every standard testcase and either marks it landed,
aliased, or explicitly unsupported with a written reason — so anyone
returning to this knows what's left and why each gap exists. Unsupported
set covers: versionnegotiation (writer hard-codes V1), resumption /
zerortt (no session ticket / 0-RTT), keyupdate (no KEY_PHASE handling),
retry (parser exists but not wired to feed-loop), rebinding-* (no client
migration), amplificationlimit (server-side), blackhole (inverse test),
ipv6 (UdpSocket v6 path unverified).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Adds a minimal Http3GetClient (in :quic-interop, NOT :quic — interop-test
surface, not a production HTTP/3 client) that opens the three required
client uni streams (control + QPACK encoder + QPACK decoder per RFC 9114
§6.2.1), sends an empty SETTINGS, and per request opens a bidi stream,
encodes the four pseudo-headers via the existing literal-only QpackEncoder,
FINs, and reassembles HEADERS+DATA frames from the response.
Wires three testcases:
- transfer: GET each REQUESTS URL sequentially, write body to
\$DOWNLOADS/<basename>. status != 200 fails.
- http3: identical to transfer.
- multiplexing: same fetches but issued in parallel via
coroutineScope { async { … } } so request streams genuinely
overlap on the wire (what tshark verifies).
Out-of-scope (deliberate): GOAWAY, PUSH_PROMISE, dynamic QPACK table,
trailers, priority — none are required by these testcases.
Unit-tests round-trip the request encoding through the existing
Http3FrameReader + QpackDecoder so the wire format is verified without
needing a real peer.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Refactors SslKeyLogger to take the ClientHello random at flush() time
(removes the lookup-lambda + bindConnection ceremony) so the formatter
is testable without spinning up a real QuicConnection. Adds three
unit tests covering: the four NSS Key Log lines emitted in the right
order, flush idempotency, and lower-case hex encoding.
Also drops a checked-in implementations.json snippet
(quic-interop-runner-snippet.json) so a sibling clone of the runner
can be registered with one jq merge instead of hand-edited JSON.
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Adds two debugging hooks to :quic so the interop endpoint can produce
artifacts that make the runner actually useful for finding bugs:
- TlsClient.clientRandom: capture and expose the 32-byte ClientHello
random so a SSLKEYLOG line can correlate to this connection.
- QuicConnection.extraSecretsListener: optional chained secrets
listener (default null, no-op for production callers). Fires
alongside the connection's own key-installation listener at every
encryption-level transition.
- QuicConnection.cipherSuites: knob to override the offered TLS
cipher suites in ClientHello.
InteropClient now:
- Writes NSS Key Log Format lines to $SSLKEYLOGFILE when set, so
Wireshark can decrypt the sim's pcap captures.
- Implements the `chacha20` testcase by offering only
TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 — exercises the ChaCha20 AEAD path
end-to-end against a peer.
Defers QLOGDIR (needs qlog observer infrastructure across packet/
frame/recovery layers — own design doc) and `versionnegotiation`
(needs the writer to accept a configurable initial QUIC version).
https://claude.ai/code/session_01HcvfQq1ttPV9PkRoJb4nyT
Adds :quic-interop, a JVM-only module at quic/interop/ that implements
the quic-interop-runner Docker contract so we can drive matrix tests
against aioquic / quiche / picoquic / msquic / ngtcp2 / etc. as a
bug-finding harness.
Phase 0 supports only the `handshake` testcase; everything else returns
127 so the runner skips rather than fails. SSLKEYLOGFILE / QLOGDIR
plumbing is deferred to Phase 1.
