| Summary: Parallel Internet measurement utility | |
Scamper is a program that is able to conduct Internet measurement tasks to large numbers of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, in parallel, to fill a specified packets-per-second rate. Currently, it supports the well-known ping and traceroute techniques, as well as MDA traceroute, alias resolution, some parts of tbit, sting, and neighbour discovery. Scamper can do ICMP-based Path MTU discovery. scamper starts with the outgoing interface's MTU and discovers the location of Path MTU bottlenecks. scamper performs a PMTUD search when an ICMP fragmentation required message is not returned to establish the PMTU to the next point in the network, followed by a TTL limited search to infer where the failure appears to occur.

* Mon Apr 25 2022 Dominique Leuenberger <dimstar@opensuse.org>
- Drop libscamperfile1 provides from the lib subpckage:
libscamperfile.so.2 is not a drop-in replacement for anything
that linked libscamperfile.so.1, and as such the provides is
invalid. The obsoletes is technically wrong, but is there to fix
the upgrade path of a wrongly-packaged libscamperfile.so.2 in a
libscamperfile1 package.
* Fri Feb 25 2022 Sebastian Wagner <sebix+novell.com@sebix.at>
- add provices/obsoletes for old libscamperfile1 sub-package.

probes (or sequence number in SYN packets). do not randomly
generate sequence and ack values for each TCP ping.
* rework options handling to allow for long long values.
* set the window size in TCP probes to 65535, instead of advertising a

rather than OpenSSL #defines that are not used consistently among
OpenSSL-like libraries.
* libscamperfile:
* don't crash on a zero length file, or other conditions where sf->type
is SCAMPER_FILE_NONE
sc_ally:
* fix example in manual page

* sc_ttlexp:
* add -O noreserved
* bugfix reading from stdin, file handling
* document updates in sc_ttlexp.1
* sc_uptime:
* add an optional -I interval parameter which controls how frequently
we want an address to be probed. add logic to exit early if we are
probing on with -I and there is a list of low-priority probing
that is not empty, so that sc_uptime can meet the probe interval.
* add the ability to expire addresses out of the database after they
have not been seen in traceroute for a while, and they do not
respond with an incrementing IPID value, with optional -E expiry
parameter.
* loading addresses into the state database is now a separate step (-a)
* add a -c option to create and initialise a database file
* add do-not-probe support
* replace import code that used a row for each sample with a blob that
stores multiple samples per blob.
* report some measure of progress on import
* build monotonic sequences which allow patterns in responses to be
more easily identified, so that reboots are not falsely inferred
in the cases of multiple counters, 16 bit counters, and routers
that start each sequence after a PTB with a new IPID.
* add an -O verbose to dump IPID sequences
* document updates in sc_uptime.1
* Sun May 06 2018 sebix+novell.com@sebix.at
- update to version 20180504:

* increase the size of a buffer in scamper's traceroute json
creation to reduce chance of truncation.
* print the number of probes sent by traceroute in the json
output.
* enforce a minimum firsthop value of 1 when reading a warts
traceroute object.
* sc_bdrmap:
* choose a static ICMP checksum value when using Paris traceroute
to reduce churn in observed topology in bdrmap output.

the file. This improvement affects sc_ally, sc_attach,
sc_bdrmap, sc_filterpolicy, sc_radargun, sc_speedtrap,
sc_tbitblind, sc_tbitpmtud, sc_uptime, sc_warts2text.

packets which could have come from an off-path attacker.
- sc_radargun:
* add -d 2 option, which dumps interface IP-ID behavior classifications.
* Thu Nov 30 2017 sebix+novell.com@sebix.at
- add patch new-openssl.patch to compile with new openssl versions

* replace recursive versions of some functions with iterative versions.
* add cycle-start and cycle-stop json record implementations.
* fix traceroute json record: the hop transmit time value it reported
was junk.
* add support for sending json over the control socket. use
"attach format json" to get this mode; "attach" by itself still
returns uuencoded warts. Initial patch supplied by Young Hyun.
* fix possible memory leaks detected with static analysis.
* quality assurance on research paper cites in manual pages.
* spelling errors noticed by Iain R. Learmonth.
sc_ally:
* add feature to dump inferred aliases from the collected data.
sc_speedtrap:

alias sets, if pthreads are detected at compilation time and
- -disable-threads configure option is not supplied.
sc_uptime:
* new scamper driver to infer IPv6 device reboot windows if the device
returns an incrementing identifier field in the IPv6 fragmentation
header. the driver is not built by default, as it expects sqlite3.
use --with-sc_uptime configure option to build.

* Thu Jun 22 2017 sebix+novell.com@sebix.at
- update to 20161204a
* More fixes to libscamperfile caught with fuzz testing. corrupt
warts files provided by Greg Ward of Dyn
* if targets or commands are specified in a file, and that file
ends after all probing of commands in that file has completed,
finish the source, allowing scamper to exit. this scenario is
most likely when stdin is the input file. Reported by Alex
Colvin of Dyn
* use select/poll/epoll/kqueue to look for read events on stdin files
* malloc enough memory for a prefix6_t in the prefixtree code. reported
by Sebastian Wagner via gcc7. only sc_bdrmap uses that code
* increase size of string buffers for some ping and trace fields for text
output to silence gcc7 warning.
* allow source IP address to be null when outputting a trace with json
* update sc_tbitblind.1 man page to show correct use of scamper's IPFW
firewall support, which changed in the 20161204 release
* fix unlikely unaligned access when computing checksums with IPv6
addresses
* Wed Jun 21 2017 sebix+novell.com@sebix.at
- update to 20161204
* add remote control socket support to scamper. scamper can be
configured to connect to a remote controller at run time to
allow remote systems to control a scamper instance. the
remote controller is handled by the sc_remoted utility, and
is documented in the sc_remoted manual page (see below).
* fixes to libscamperfile caught with fuzz testing. corrupt
warts data files provided by Greg Ward of Dyn.
* add a PATRICIA trie implementation based off Sedgewick's
Algorithms in C++ book. this improves the performance
of scamper compared to holding addresses in splaytrees.
* improve speed of warts(5) code.
* improve speed of scamper_writebuf by allocating pagesize blocks
at a time.
* begin to document ping warts records in warts(5).

be built in as long as --without-debugfile is not used.
backported to 20141211g.
* silence compiler warnings from Microsoft Visual Studio.
backported to 20141211g.
* sc_prefixscan:
* add a utility, sc_prefixscan, that provides a convenient
interface to scamper's prefixscan alias resolution method.
https://www.caida.org/tools/measurement/scamper/man/sc_prefixscan.1.pdf
* sc_radargun:
* add a utility, sc_radargun, that provides a convenient
interface to scamper's radargun implementation.
https://www.caida.org/tools/measurement/scamper/man/sc_radargun.1.pdf
* sc_remoted:
* add a utility, sc_remoted, that provides an interface to a
collection of remote scamper instances.

closure to save probes.
* allow inter-probe gaps of less than 1 second.
* sc_attach:
* add support for remote control sockets.
