Block Exchange Protocol v1
==========================
Introduction and Definitions
----------------------------
BEP is used between two or more _nodes_ thus forming a _cluster_. Each
node has one or more _repositories_ of files described by the _local
model_, containing metadata and block hashes. The local model is sent to
the other nodes in the cluster. The union of all files in the local
models, with files selected for highest change version, forms the
_global model_. Each node strives to get it's repositories in sync with
the global model by requesting missing or outdated blocks from the other
nodes in the cluster.
File data is described and transferred in units of _blocks_, each being
128 KiB (131072 bytes) in size.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL
NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
RFC 2119.
Transport and Authentication
----------------------------
BEP is deployed as the highest level in a protocol stack, with the lower
level protocols providing compression, encryption and authentication.
+-----------------------------|
| Block Exchange Protocol |
|-----------------------------|
| Compression (RFC 1951) |
|-----------------------------|
| Encryption & Auth (TLS 1.2) |
|-----------------------------|
| TCP |
|-----------------------------|
v ... v
Compression is started directly after a successful TLS handshake,
before the first message is sent. The compression is flushed at each
message boundary. Compression SHALL use the DEFLATE format as specified
in RFC 1951.
The encryption and authentication layer SHALL use TLS 1.2 or a higher
revision. A strong cipher suite SHALL be used, with "strong cipher
suite" being defined as being without known weaknesses and providing
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS). Examples of strong cipher suites are
given at the end of this document. This is not to be taken as an
exhaustive list of allowed cipher suites but represents best practices
at the time of writing.
The exact nature of the authentication is up to the application, however
it SHALL be based on the TLS certificate presented at the start of the
connection. Possibilities include certificates signed by a common
trusted CA, preshared certificates, preshared certificate fingerprints
or certificate pinning combined with some out of band first
verification. The reference implementation uses preshared certificate
fingerprints (SHA-256) referred to as "Node IDs".
There is no required order or synchronization among BEP messages except
as noted per message type - any message type may be sent at any time and
the sender need not await a response to one message before sending
another. Responses MUST however be sent in the same order as the
requests are received.
The underlying transport protocol MUST be TCP.
Messages
--------
Every message starts with one 32 bit word indicating the message
version, type and ID. The header is in network byte order, i.e. big
endian.
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Ver | Message ID | Type | Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
For BEP v1 the Version field is set to zero. Future versions with
incompatible message formats will increment the Version field. A message
with an unknown version is a protocol error and MUST result in the
connection being terminated. A client supporting multiple versions MAY
retry with a different protocol version upon disconnection.
The Message ID is set to a unique value for each transmitted request
message. In response messages it is set to the Message ID of the
corresponding request message. The uniqueness requirement implies that
no more than 4096 messages may be outstanding at any given moment. The
ordering requirement implies that a response to a given message ID also
means that all preceding messages have been received, specifically those
which do not otherwise demand a response. Hence their message ID:s may
be reused.
The Type field indicates the type of data following the message header
and is one of the integers defined below. A message of an unknown type
is a protocol error and MUST result in the connection being terminated.
All data following the message header MUST be in XDR (RFC 1014)
encoding. All fields shorter than 32 bits and all variable length data
MUST be padded to a multiple of 32 bits. The actual data types in use by
BEP, in XDR naming convention, are the following:
- (unsigned) int -- (unsigned) 32 bit integer
- (unsigned) hyper -- (unsigned) 64 bit integer
- opaque<> -- variable length opaque data
- string<> -- variable length string
The transmitted length of string and opaque data is the length of actual
data, excluding any added padding. The encoding of opaque<> and string<>
are identical, the distinction being solely one of interpretation.
Opaque data should not be interpreted but can be compared bytewise to
other opaque data. All strings MUST use the Unicode UTF-8 encoding,
normalization form C.
### Cluster Config (Type = 0)
This informational message provides information about the cluster
configuration as it pertains to the current connection. A Cluster Config
message MUST be the first message sent on a BEP connection. Additional
Cluster Config messages MUST NOT be sent after the initial exchange.

#### Fields
The ClientName and ClientVersion fields identify the implementation. The
values SHOULD be simple strings identifying the implementation name, as
a user would expect to see it, and the version string in the same
manner. An example ClientName is "syncthing" and an example
ClientVersion is "v0.7.2". The ClientVersion field SHOULD follow the
patterns laid out in the [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/)
standard.
The Repositories field lists all repositories that will be synchronized
over the current connection. Each repository has a list of participating
Nodes. Each node has an associated Flags field to indicate the sharing
mode of that node for the repository in question. See the discussion on
Sharing Modes.
The Node Flags field contains the following single bit flags:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Reserved |Pri| Reserved |R|T|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
- Bit 31 ("T", Trusted) is set for nodes that participate in trusted
mode.
- Bit 30 ("R", Read Only) is set for nodes that participate in read
only mode.
- Bits 16 through 28 are reserved and MUST be set to zero.
- Bits 14-15 ("Pri) indicate the node's upload priority for this
repository. Possible values are:
- 00: The default. Normal priority.
- 01: High priority. Other nodes SHOULD favour requesting files from
this node over nodes with normal or low priority.
- 10: Low priority. Other nodes SHOULD avoid requesting files from
this node when they are available from other nodes.
- 11: Sharing disabled. Other nodes SHOULD NOT request files from
this node.
- Bits 0 through 14 are reserved and MUST be set to zero.
Exactly one of the T, R or S bits MUST be set.
The Options field contain option values to be used in an implementation
specific manner. The options list is conceptually a map of Key => Value
items, although it is transmitted in the form of a list of (Key, Value)
pairs, both of string type. Key ID:s are implementation specific. An
implementation MUST ignore unknown keys. An implementation MAY impose
limits on the length keys and values. The options list may be used to
inform nodes of relevant local configuration options such as rate
limiting or make recommendations about request parallelism, node
priorities, etc. An empty options list is valid for nodes not having any
such information to share. Nodes MAY NOT make any assumptions about
peers acting in a specific manner as a result of sent options.

### Index (Type = 1)
The Index message defines the contents of the senders repository. An
Index message MUST be sent for each repository mentioned in the Cluster
Config message. An Index message for a repository MUST be sent before
any other message referring to that repository. A node with no data to
advertise MUST send an empty Index message (a file list of zero length).
If the repository contents change from non-empty to empty, an empty
Index message MUST be sent. There is no response to the Index message.

#### Fields
The Repository field identifies the repository that the index message
pertains to. For single repository implementations the node MAY send an
empty repository ID or use the string "default".
The Name is the file name path relative to the repository root. Like all
strings in BEP, the Name is always in UTF-8 NFC regardless of operating
system or file system specific conventions. The Name field uses the
slash character ("/") as path separator, regardless of the
implementation's operating system conventions. The combination of
Repository and Name uniquely identifies each file in a cluster.
The Version field is the value of a cluster wide Lamport clock
indicating when the change was detected. The clock ticks on every
detected and received change. The combination of Repository, Name and
Version uniquely identifies the contents of a file at a given point in
time.
The Flags field is made up of the following single bit flags:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Reserved |P|I|D| Unix Perm. & Mode |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
- The lower 12 bits hold the common Unix permission and mode bits. An
implementation MAY ignore or interpret these as is suitable on the host
operating system.
- Bit 19 ("D") is set when the file has been deleted. The block list
SHALL be of length zero and the modification time indicates the time
of deletion or, if the time of deletion is not reliably determinable,
the last known modification time.
- Bit 18 ("I") is set when the file is invalid and unavailable for
synchronization. A peer MAY set this bit to indicate that it can
temporarily not serve data for the file.
- Bit 17 ("P") is set when there is no permission information for the
file. This is the case when it originates on a non-permission-
supporting file system. Changes to only permission bits SHOULD be
disregarded on files with this bit set. The permissions bits MUST be
set to the octal value 0666.
- Bit 0 through 16 are reserved for future use and SHALL be set to
zero.
The hash algorithm is implied by the Hash length. Currently, the hash
MUST be 32 bytes long and computed by SHA256.
The Modified time is expressed as the number of seconds since the Unix
Epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC).
In the rare occasion that a file is simultaneously and independently
modified by two nodes in the same cluster and thus end up on the same
Version number after modification, the Modified field is used as a tie
breaker (higher being better), followed by the hash values of the file
blocks (lower being better).
The Blocks list contains the size and hash for each block in the file.
Each block represents a 128 KiB slice of the file, except for the last
block which may represent a smaller amount of data.

### Request (Type = 2)
The Request message expresses the desire to receive a data block
corresponding to a part of a certain file in the peer's repository.

#### Fields
The Repository and Name fields are as documented for the Index message.
The Offset and Size fields specify the region of the file to be
transferred. This SHOULD equate to exactly one block as seen in an Index
message.
#### XDR
struct RequestMessage {
string Repository<>;
string Name<>;
unsigned hyper Offset;
unsigned int Size;
}
### Response (Type = 3)
The Response message is sent in response to a Request message.

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
#### Fields
The Data field contains either a full 128 KiB block, a shorter block in
the case of the last block in a file, or is empty (zero length) if the
requested block is not available.
#### XDR
struct ResponseMessage {
opaque Data<>
}
### Ping (Type = 4)
The Ping message is used to determine that a connection is alive, and to
keep connections alive through state tracking network elements such as
firewalls and NAT gateways. The Ping message has no contents.
### Pong (Type = 5)
The Pong message is sent in response to a Ping. The Pong message has no
contents, but copies the Message ID from the Ping.
### Index Update (Type = 6)
This message has exactly the same structure as the Index message.
However instead of replacing the contents of the repository in the
model, the Index Update merely amends it with new or updated file
information. Any files not mentioned in an Index Update are left
unchanged.
Sharing Modes
-------------
### Trusted
Trusted mode is the default sharing mode. Updates are exchanged in both
directions.
+------------+ Updates /---------\
| | -----------> / \
| Node | | Cluster |
| | <----------- \ /
+------------+ Updates \---------/
### Read Only
In read only mode a node does not synchronize the local repository to
the cluster, but publishes changes to it's local repository contents as
usual. The local repository can be seen as a "master copy" that is never
affected by the actions of other cluster nodes.
+------------+ Updates /---------\
| | -----------> / \
| Node | | Cluster |
| | \ /
+------------+ \---------/
Message Limits
--------------
An implementation MAY impose reasonable limits on the length of message
fields to aid robustness in the face of corruption or broken
implementations. These limits, if imposed, SHOULD NOT be more
restrictive than the following:
### Index and Index Update Messages
- Repository: 64 bytes
- Number of Files: 1.000.000
- Name: 1024 bytes
- Number of Blocks: 100.000
- Hash: 64 bytes
### Request Messages
- Repository: 64 bytes
- Name: 1024 bytes
### Response Messages
- Data: 256 KiB
### Options Message
- Number of Options: 64
- Key: 64 bytes
- Value: 1024 bytes
Example Exchange
----------------

2. Request->
3. Request->
4. Request->
5. Request->
6. <-Response
7. <-Response
8. <-Response
9. <-Response
10. Index Update->
...
11. Ping->
12. <-Pong
The connection is established and at 1. both peers send Index records.
The Index records are received and both peers recompute their knowledge
of the data in the cluster. In this example, peer A has four missing or
outdated blocks. At 2 through 5 peer A sends requests for these blocks.
The requests are received by peer B, who retrieves the data from the
repository and transmits Response records (6 through 9). Node A updates
their repository contents and transmits an Index Update message (10).
Both peers enter idle state after 10. At some later time 11, peer A
determines that it has not seen data from B for some time and sends a
Ping request. A response is sent at 12.
