- Enhance error handling for invalid listen addresses in metrics setup.
- Implemented a mechanism to log unknown datacenter indices with a distinct limit to avoid excessive logging.
- Introduced tests to ensure that logging is deduplicated per datacenter index and respects the distinct limit.

feat(proxy): add authentication probe throttling
- Added a pre-authentication probe throttling mechanism to limit the rate of invalid TLS and MTProto handshake attempts.
- Introduced a backoff strategy for repeated failures and ensured that successful handshakes reset the failure count.
- Implemented tests to validate the behavior of the authentication probe under various conditions.
fix(proxy): ensure proper flushing of masked writes
- Added a flush operation after writing initial data to the mask writer to ensure data integrity.
refactor(proxy): optimize desynchronization deduplication
- Replaced the Mutex-based deduplication structure with a DashMap for improved concurrency and performance.
- Implemented a bounded cache for deduplication to limit memory usage and prevent stale entries from persisting.
test(proxy): enhance security tests for middle relay and handshake
- Added comprehensive tests for the middle relay and handshake processes, including scenarios for deduplication and authentication probe behavior.
- Ensured that the tests cover edge cases and validate the expected behavior of the system under load.
- Introduced `BOOT_TIME_MAX_SECS` constant to define the maximum accepted boot-time timestamp.
- Updated `validate_tls_handshake_at_time` to utilize the new boot time constant for timestamp validation.
- Enhanced `extract_sni_from_client_hello` to validate SNI hostnames against specified criteria, rejecting invalid hostnames.
- Added tests to ensure proper handling of boot time timestamps and SNI validation.
feat(handshake): improve user secret decoding and ALPN enforcement
- Refactored user secret decoding to provide better error handling and logging for invalid secrets.
- Added tests for concurrent identical handshakes to ensure replay protection works as expected.
- Implemented ALPN enforcement in handshake processing, rejecting unsupported protocols and allowing valid ones.
fix(masking): implement timeout handling for masking operations
- Added timeout handling for writing proxy headers and consuming client data in masking.
- Adjusted timeout durations for testing to ensure faster feedback during unit tests.
- Introduced tests to verify behavior when masking is disabled and when proxy header writes exceed the timeout.
test(masking): add tests for slowloris connections and proxy header timeouts
- Created tests to validate that slowloris connections are closed by consume timeout when masking is disabled.
- Added a test for proxy header write timeout to ensure it returns false when the write operation does not complete.
- Enforce TLS record length constraints in client handling to comply with RFC 8446, rejecting records outside the range of 512 to 16,384 bytes.
- Update security tests to validate behavior for oversized and undersized TLS records, ensuring they are correctly masked or rejected.
- Introduce new tests to verify the handling of TLS records in both generic and client handler pipelines.
- Refactor handshake logic to enforce mode restrictions based on transport type, preventing misuse of secure tags.
- Add tests for nonce generation and encryption consistency, ensuring correct behavior for different configurations.
- Improve masking tests to ensure proper logging and detection of client types, including SSH and unknown probes.
- forward valid-TLS/invalid-MTProto clients to mask backend in both client paths\n- harden TLS validation against timing and clock edge cases\n- move replay tracking behind successful authentication to avoid cache pollution\n- tighten secret decoding and key-material handling paths\n- add dedicated security test modules for tls/client/handshake/masking\n- include production-path regression for ClientHandler fallback behavior
This commit adds support for configuring the data path via a
configuration file or command-line option. This may be useful
on systems without systemd, such as OpenWrt or Alpine Linux.

Added new endpoints:
- GET /v1/system/info
- GET /v1/runtime/gates
- GET /v1/limits/effective
- GET /v1/security/posture
Added API runtime state without impacting the hot path:
- config_reload_count
- last_config_reload_epoch_secs
- admission_open
- process_started_at_epoch_secs
Added background watcher tasks in api::serve:
- configuration reload tracking
- admission gate state tracking
- Per-user ad_tag in [access.user_ad_tags], global fallback in general.ad_tag
- User tag overrides global; if no user tag, general.ad_tag is used
- Both general.ad_tag and user_ad_tags support hot-reload (no restart)
When mask_unix_sock is configured, mask_proxy_protocol was silently
ignored and no PROXY protocol header was sent to the backend. Apply
the same header-building logic as the TCP path in both masking relay
and TLS fetcher (raw and rustls).
Previously handle_bad_client used stream.local_addr() (the ephemeral
socket to the mask backend) as the dst in the outgoing PROXY protocol
header. This is wrong: the dst should be the address telemt is listening
on, or the dst from the incoming PROXY protocol header if one was present.
- handle_bad_client now receives local_addr from the caller
- handle_client_stream resolves local_addr from PROXY protocol info.dst_addr
or falls back to a synthetic address based on config.server.port
- RunningClientHandler.do_handshake resolves local_addr from stream.local_addr()
overridden by PROXY protocol info.dst_addr when present, and passes it
down to handle_tls_client / handle_direct_client
- masking.rs uses the caller-supplied local_addr directly, eliminating the
stream.local_addr() call
