Negotiate new TCP sessions even when the peer epoch is known, and let the retry timer send reciprocal challenges to avoid feedback loops when confirmations are lost.
Cover peer restarts, simultaneous connects, REALITY, confirmation loss, second links, stale confirmations and deadlines. Remove forced client resets and count only validated test payloads in the UDP reconnect test.
Validation: 149 tests passed; proxy, burst and load integration tests passed; Android assembleDebug succeeded.
- u_async.c: process immediate_queue BEFORE epoll_wait in uasync_poll
- stcp_link.c: defensive NULL etcp_conn/etcp_link in stcp_link_close
- utun_instance.c: move stcp_server_list_destroy_all to Phase J (before ETCP),
add deferred drain in both Phase J and L
- stcp.h/c: STCP_HS_ENC_CLIENT 6→38, STCP_HS_ENC_SERVER 7→39,
exchange ed25519_pubkey in both handshake directions
- etcp_connections.c: copy peer_ed25519 from STCP to ETCP_CONN in
etcp_link_enter_ready_tcp; guard link->etcp in tcp_link_close_cb
- chat_sync.c: fix lk->conn NULL dereference for TCP links
- test_stcp.c: update stcp_server_create/stcp_client_connect callsites
- tools/chat_tcp_test: change transport udp→tcp
- member_sync apply_items: empty payload is normal sync completion, not error
- topo_node_sqlite node_load: no addresses is normal for stub/seed nodes
- conn_mgr_core: node skipped when not in routing (normal for nodes w/o addrs)
- topo_group send_nodeinfo: downgrade ERROR→WARN in DEBUG category
- db_sync INIT_RESP: protocol details belong in DEBUG, not INFO
- etcp_conn_reset: queue_resume_callback after clear_queue (input_queue,
input_send_q, input_wait_ack) to prevent suspended callback deadlock
- is_connection_established: check conn->initialized (reliable across
reinit) instead of link->initialized (never cleared on reinit)
- test: force etcp_conn_reinit after server recreation so conn_ok
waits for fresh INIT handshake
- test: guard send_packets() with is_connection_established in reconnect
phases to avoid sending data while conn is down
- etcp_link_update_inflight_lim: self-contained method with clamping,
send_blocked_inflight check, loadbalancer_link_ready on cwnd increase
- etcp_conn_on_inflight_lim_changed: recalc optimal_inflight + resume input
- etcp_ack_recv: use etcp_link_update_inflight_lim instead of manual set
- etcp_request_pkt: fix line 928 check old link (inf_pkt->last_link) not new
- etcp_link_close: recalc optimal_inflight on link removal (both branches)
- etcp_socket_remove: fix dangling pointer loop (nullify after close)
- uasync_print_resources: show timer names, remain time, deleted entries
- diagnostics in utun_instance_destroy and test_etcp_reconnect
- etcp_conn_reset: cancel retrans_timer/ack_resp_timer via uasync_cancel_timeout
before nulling (was leaking timer handles, confirmed by 'Timer leak: diff')
- etcp_connections: cancel link->init_timer explicitly when link_state becomes 3
on both client and server INIT_RESPONSE paths (prevents spurious INIT after
connection is established that could trigger cascading reinits)
- etcp_connections: remove duplicate conn->session_id assignment in new conn path
(session_id is set later via conn_reinit flow)
- pkt_normalizer: resume output queue callback after pn_reset
- Add test_etcp_reconnect with reinit detection — monitors conn->reinit_count
and restarts data transfer if reinit occurs during active phase
- Add etcp_dump.c/h — ETCP connection state dump utility for debugging
