This PR improves the NetBird client's status checking mechanism by implementing earlier detection of client state changes and better handling of connection lifecycle management. The key improvements focus on:
• Enhanced status detection - Added waitForReady option to StatusRequest for improved client status handling
• Better connection management - Improved context handling for signal and management gRPC connections• Reduced connection timeouts - Increased gRPC dial timeout from 3 to 10 seconds for better reliability
• Cleaner error handling - Enhanced error propagation and context cancellation in retry loops
Key Changes
Core Status Improvements:
- Added waitForReady optional field to StatusRequest proto (daemon.proto:190)
- Enhanced status checking logic to detect client state changes earlier in the connection process
- Improved handling of client permanent exit scenarios from retry loops
Connection & Context Management:
- Fixed context cancellation in management and signal client retry mechanisms
- Added proper context propagation for Login operations
- Enhanced gRPC connection handling with better timeout management
Error Handling & Cleanup:
- Moved feedback channels to upper layers for better separation of concerns
- Improved error handling patterns throughout the client server implementation
- Fixed synchronization issues and removed debug logging
- Move `util/grpc` and `util/net` to `client` so `internal` packages can be accessed
- Add methods to return the next best interface after the NetBird interface.
- Use `IP_UNICAST_IF` sock opt to force the outgoing interface for the NetBird `net.Dialer` and `net.ListenerConfig` to avoid routing loops. The interface is picked by the new route lookup method.
- Some refactoring to avoid import cycles
- Old behavior is available through `NB_USE_LEGACY_ROUTING=true` env var
