This updates our logging framework from legacy freetext strings using
the `log` package to structured log entries using `log/slog`. I have
updated all INFO or higher level entries, but not yet DEBUG (😓)... So,
at a high level:
There is a slight change in log levels, effectively adding a new warning
level:
- DEBUG is still debug (ideally not for users but developers, though
this is something we need to work on)
- INFO is still info, though I've added more data here, effectively
making Syncthing more verbose by default (more on this below)
- WARNING is a new log level that is different from the _old_ WARNING
(more below)
- ERROR is what was WARNING before -- problems that must be dealt with,
and also bubbled as a popup in the GUI.
A new feature is that the logging level can be set per package to
something other than just debug or info, and hence I feel that we can
add a bit more things into INFO while moving some (in fact, most)
current INFO level warnings into WARNING. For example, I think it's
justified to get a log of synced files in INFO and sync failures in
WARNING. These are things that have historically been tricky to debug
properly, and having more information by default will be useful to many,
while still making it possible get close to told level of inscrutability
by setting the log level to WARNING. I'd like to get to a stage where
DEBUG is never necessary to just figure out what's going on, as opposed
to trying to narrow down a likely bug.
Code wise:
- Our logging object, generally known as `l` in each package, is now a
new adapter object that provides the old API on top of the newer one.
(This should go away once all old log entries are migrated.) This is
only for `l.Debugln` and `l.Debugf`.
- There is a new level tracker that keeps the log level for each
package.
- There is a nested setup of handlers, since the structure mandated by
`log/slog` is slightly convoluted (imho). We do this because we need to
do formatting at a "medium" level internally so we can buffer log lines
in text format but with separate timestamp and log level for the API/GUI
to consume.
- The `debug` API call becomes a `loglevels` API call, which can set the
log level to `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING` or `ERROR` per package. The GUI
is updated to handle this.
- Our custom `sync` package provided some debugging of mutexes quite
strongly integrated into the old logging framework, only turned on when
`STTRACE` was set to certain values at startup, etc. It's been a long
time since this has been useful; I removed it.
- The `STTRACE` env var remains and can be used the same way as before,
while additionally permitting specific log levels to be specified,
`STTRACE=model:WARN,scanner:DEBUG`.
- There is a new command line option `--log-level=INFO` to set the
default log level.
- The command line options `--log-flags` and `--verbose` go away, but
are currently retained as hidden & ignored options since we set them by
default in some of our startup examples and Syncthing would otherwise
fail to start.

This is extracted from PR #9175. This deduplicates `SetPassword` calls
and makes `postAdjustGui` a single place where PR #9175 can add
another adjustment step for sanitizing changes to WebAuthn
credentials.
This also adds tests to validate that the refactored logic was not
broken.
These refactorizations were made in [PR #9175][1] to accommodate a few
new variants of authentication method and body content. On request from
reviewers, this PR extracts it as a smaller refactorization to review in
isolation.
### Purpose
This extracts a shared `httpRequest` base function from `httpGet` and
`httpPost`, which will be used in PR #9175 for new helper functions
`httpGetCsrf` (hiding all optional parameters except the CSRF token),
`httpPostCsrf` (same) and `httpPostCsrfAuth` (hiding basic auth
parameters). A `getSessionCookie` function is also extracted from
`hasSessionCookie` and will be used to test that concurrent WebAuthn
authentications result in separate sessions (indicated by different
session cookies).
At a high level, this is what I've done and why:
- I'm moving the protobuf generation for the `protocol`, `discovery` and
`db` packages to the modern alternatives, and using `buf` to generate
because it's nice and simple.
- After trying various approaches on how to integrate the new types with
the existing code, I opted for splitting off our own data model types
from the on-the-wire generated types. This means we can have a
`FileInfo` type with nicer ergonomics and lots of methods, while the
protobuf generated type stays clean and close to the wire protocol. It
does mean copying between the two when required, which certainly adds a
small amount of inefficiency. If we want to walk this back in the future
and use the raw generated type throughout, that's possible, this however
makes the refactor smaller (!) as it doesn't change everything about the
type for everyone at the same time.
- I have simply removed in cold blood a significant number of old
database migrations. These depended on previous generations of generated
messages of various kinds and were annoying to support in the new
fashion. The oldest supported database version now is the one from
Syncthing 1.9.0 from Sep 7, 2020.
- I changed config structs to be regular manually defined structs.
For the sake of discussion, some things I tried that turned out not to
work...
### Embedding / wrapping
Embedding the protobuf generated structs in our existing types as a data
container and keeping our methods and stuff:
```
package protocol
type FileInfo struct {
*generated.FileInfo
}
```
This generates a lot of problems because the internal shape of the
generated struct is quite different (different names, different types,
more pointers), because initializing it doesn't work like you'd expect
(i.e., you end up with an embedded nil pointer and a panic), and because
the types of child types don't get wrapped. That is, even if we also
have a similar wrapper around a `Vector`, that's not the type you get
when accessing `someFileInfo.Version`, you get the `*generated.Vector`
that doesn't have methods, etc.
### Aliasing
```
package protocol
type FileInfo = generated.FileInfo
```
Doesn't help because you can't attach methods to it, plus all the above.
### Generating the types into the target package like we do now and
attaching methods
This fails because of the different shape of the generated type (as in
the embedding case above) plus the generated struct already has a bunch
of methods that we can't necessarily override properly (like `String()`
and a bunch of getters).
### Methods to functions
I considered just moving all the methods we attach to functions in a
specific package, so that for example
```
package protocol
func (f FileInfo) Equal(other FileInfo) bool
```
would become
```
package fileinfos
func Equal(a, b *generated.FileInfo) bool
```
and this would mostly work, but becomes quite verbose and cumbersome,
and somewhat limits discoverability (you can't see what methods are
available on the type in auto completions, etc). In the end I did this
in some cases, like in the database layer where a lot of things like
`func (fv *FileVersion) IsEmpty() bool` becomes `func fvIsEmpty(fv
*generated.FileVersion)` because they were anyway just internal methods.
Fixes#8247
This is an extract from PR #9175, which can be reviewed in isolation to
reduce the volume of changes to review all at once in #9175. There are
about to be several services and API handlers that read and set cookies
and session state, so this abstraction will prove helpful.
In particular a motivating cause for this is that with the current
architecture in PR #9175, in `api.go` the [`webauthnService` needs to
access the
session](https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/9175/files#diff-e2e14f22d818b8e635572ef0ee7718dee875c365e07225d760a6faae8be7772dR309-R310)
for authentication purposes but needs to be instantiated before the
`configMuxBuilder` for config purposes, because the WebAuthn additions
to config management need to perform WebAuthn registration ceremonies,
but currently the session management is embedded in the
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` which is [instantiated much
later](https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/9175/files#diff-e2e14f22d818b8e635572ef0ee7718dee875c365e07225d760a6faae8be7772dL371-R380)
and only if authentication is enabled in `guiCfg`. This refactorization
extracts the session management out from `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware`
so that `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` and `webauthnService` can both
use the same shared session management service to perform session
management logic.
### Testing
This is a refactorization intended to not change any externally
observable behaviour, so existing tests (e.g., `api_auth_test.go`)
should cover this where appropriate. I have manually verified that:
- Appending `+ "foo"` to the cookie name in `createSession` causes
`TestHtmlFormLogin/invalid_URL_returns_403_before_auth_and_404_after_auth`
and `TestHtmlFormLogin/UTF-8_auth_works` to fail
- Inverting the return value of `hasValidSession` cases a whole bunch of
tests in `TestHTTPLogin` and `TestHtmlFormLogin` to fail
- (Fixed) Changing the cookie to `MaxAge: 1000` in `destroySession` does
NOT cause any tests to fail!
- Added tests `TestHtmlFormLogin/Logout_removes_the_session_cookie`,
`TestHTTPLogin/*/Logout_removes_the_session_cookie`,
`TestHtmlFormLogin/Session_cookie_is_invalid_after_logout` and
`TestHTTPLogin/200_path#01/Session_cookie_is_invalid_after_logout` to
cover this.
- Manually verified that these tests pass both before and after the
changes in this PR, and that changing the cookie to `MaxAge: 1000` or
not calling `m.tokens.Delete(cookie.Value)` in `destroySession` makes
the respective pair of tests fail.
Somewhere along the way, the non-parallel test became parallel, and at
that point, timeouts occurred. Parallel is better, so increase the
timeout on the offending call a bit...
This adds a "token manager" which handles storing and checking expired
tokens, used for both sessions and CSRF tokens. It removes the old,
corresponding functionality for CSRFs which saved things in a file. The
result is less crap in the state directory, and active login sessions
now survive a Syncthing restart (this really annoyed me).
It also adds a boolean on login to create a longer-lived session cookie,
which is now possible and useful. Thus we can remain logged in over
browser restarts, which was also annoying... :)

Best viewed with whitespace-insensitive diff, as a bunch of the auth
functions became methods instead of closures which changed indentation.
This is motivated by the Android app:
https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-android/pull/1982#issuecomment-1752042554
The planned fix in response to basic auth behaviour changing in #8757
was to add the `Authorization` header when opening the WebView, but it
turns out the function used only applies the header to the initial page
load, not any subsequent script loads or AJAX calls. The
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` checks for no-auth exceptions before
checking the `Authorization` header, so the header has no effect on the
initial page load since the `/` path is a no-auth exception. Thus the
Android app fails to log in when opening the WebView.
This changes the order of checks in `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` so
that the `Authorization` header is always checked if present, and a
session cookie is set if it is valid. Only after that does the
middleware fall back to checking for no-auth exceptions.
`api_test.go` has been expanded with additional checks:
- Check that a session cookie is set whenever correct basic auth is
provided.
- Check that a session cookie is not set when basic auth is incorrect.
- Check that a session cookie is not set when authenticating with an API
token (either via `X-Api-Key` or `Authorization: Bearer`).
And an additional test case:
- Check that requests to `/` always succeed, but receive a session
cookie when correct basic auth is provided.
I have manually verified that
- The new assertions fail if the `createSession` call is removed in
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware`.
- The new test cases in e6e4df4d70 fail
before the change in 0e47d37e73 is
applied.
Currently, historically, we look for the `X-API-Key` header to
authenticate with an API key. There's nothing wrong with this, but in
some scenarios it's easier to produce an `Authorization` header with a
`Bearer $token` content, which is nowadays more common. This change adds
support for both, so that we will accept an API key either in our custom
header or as a bearer token.
This fixes various test issues with Go 1.20.
- Most tests rewritten to use fakefs where possible
- Some tests that were already skipped, or dubious (invasive,
unmaintainable, unclear what they even tested) have been removed
- Some actual code rewritten to better support testing in fakefs

all: Add package runtimeos for runtime.GOOS comparisons
I grew tired of hand written string comparisons. This adds generated
constants for the GOOS values, and predefined Is$OS constants that can
be iffed on. In a couple of places I rewrote trivial switch:es to if:s,
and added Illumos where we checked for Solaris (because they are
effectively the same, and if we're going to target one of them that
would be Illumos...).
An off-by-one error could cause tokens to be forgotten. Suppose
tokens := []string{"foo", "bar", "baz", "quux"}
i := 2
token := tokens[i] // token == "baz"
Then, after
copy(tokens[1:], tokens[:i+1])
tokens[0] = token
we have
tokens == []string{"baz", "foo", "bar", "baz"}
The short test actually relied on this bug.
This commit replaces `os.MkdirTemp` with `t.TempDir` in tests. The
directory created by `t.TempDir` is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.
Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using `os.MkdirTemp`
needs to be removed manually by calling `os.RemoveAll`, which is omitted
in some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
defer func() {
if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
}
is also tedious, but `t.TempDir` handles this for us nicely.

LoadOrGenerateCertificate() takes two file path arguments, but then
uses the locations package to determine the actual path. Fix that
with a minimally invasive change, by using the arguments instead.
Factor out GenerateCertificate().
The only caller of this function is cmd/syncthing, which passes the
same values, so this is technically a no-op.
* lib/tlsutil: Make storing generated certificate optional. Avoid
temporary cert and key files in tests, keep cert in memory.
* Trigger connection loop on config device addition (fixes#7600)
* Also check for device address equality
* Move EqualStrings from api_test to utils, and use in connections/service.go
* Make sure CommitConfiguration cannot block due on the deviceAddressesChanged channel
* Update lib/connections/service.go

This loosens the ‘is this localhost?’ check to include *.localhost host
names.
This allows for clearer (hence better) names to be used in browsers,
e.g. when accessing a remote syncthing instance ‘foo’ using a ssh port
forward, one can use foo.localhost to remind oneself which one is which.
💡 Without these changes, Syncthing shows a ‘Host check error’ when
pointing a browser at http://foo.localhost/, and with these changes, the
interface loads as usual.
The .localhost top level domain is a reserved top-level domain (RFC 2606):
> The ".localhost" TLD has traditionally been statically defined in
> host DNS implementations as having an A record pointing to the
> loop back IP address and is reserved for such use. Any other use
> would conflict with widely deployed code which assumes this use.
> – https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2606
As Wikipedia puts it:
> This allows the use of these names for either documentation purposes
or in local testing scenarios. – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.localhost
On Linux systems, systemd-resolved resolves *.localhost, on purpose:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-resolved.service.html
See also #4815, #4816.
Our authentication is based on device ID (certificate fingerprint) but
we also check the certificate name for ... historical extra security
reasons. (I don't think this adds anything but it is what it is.) Since
that check breaks in Go 1.15 this change does two things:
- Adds a manual check for the peer certificate CommonName, and if they
are equal we are happy and don't call the more advanced
VerifyHostname() function. This allows our old style certificates to
still pass the check.
- Adds the cert name "syncthing" as a DNS SAN when generating the
certificate. This is the correct way nowadays and makes VerifyHostname()
happy in Go 1.15 as well, even without the above patch.
Storing assets as []byte requires every compiled-in asset to be copied
into writable memory at program startup. That currently takes up 1.6MB
per syncthing process. Strings stay in the RODATA section and should be
shared between processes running the same binary.
- In the few places where we wrap errors, use the new Go 1.13 "%w"
construction instead of %s or %v.
- Where we create errors with constant strings, consistently use
errors.New and not fmt.Errorf.
- Remove capitalization from errors in the few places where we had that.
