This adds configurability for the initial round-trip time, which has a use-case for something like space-applications where a higher round-trip time might be expected. This is a first draft PR, an end-to-end test with other QUIC stacks still needs to be done.

@robamu it would be helpful it you could compile the PR and run the test suite locally, just to make sure that CI doesn't immediately fail.

I have problems running the tests currently..

I can check and build the project though and I have installed NSS v3.103 according to https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/nss.html .. is there something special I need to take care of when installing NSS from the sources for the neqo tests? I can not use the Ubuntu package provides NSS tools/libraries because the version is too old.

Are you sure you are linking against the LFS version of NSS you installed and not some other version? Check with ldd?

I suggest you follow what's in the readme, i.e., check out the sources and set the environment variables so that neqo will do the right thing.

Running ldd yields the following:

neqo on  main [$] is 📦 v0.8.2 via 🦀 v1.80.1

/usr/lib/libnss3.so: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnssutil3.so: version `NSSUTIL_3.101' not found (required by /usr/lib/libnss3.so)

so.. some problem with libnssutil3 oder some other missing library?

I also tried following the readme by setting NSS_DIR to the NSS sources path and then running a fresh build of neqo, but there seems to be some issue with the build.sh script of NSS.. I was only able to build NSS with make so far.

This looks like at least some of your installation is NSS 3.101 and not 3.103, which would explain the error when you try and run it. If you want to use the LFS-installed NSS, you need to make sure it's installed correctly in the system paths, and that no other (older) versions are lingering.

I also tried following the readme by setting NSS_DIR to the NSS sources path and then running a fresh build of neqo, but there seems to be some issue with the build.sh script of NSS.. I was only able to build NSS with make so far.

This looks like the environment is not set up correctly. You need to check out NSS and NSPR into a directory hierarchy like this:

/your/absolute/path
nss
├── nss
└── nspr

Your environment then should be:

export NSS_DIR=/your/absolute/path/nss/nss
export NSS_TARGET=Release
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH $NSS_DIR/../dist/$NSS_TARGET/lib

I see that there is a client & server test and the interoperability tests, should I try to make those work locally as well?

Are you running this in a VM or cloud instance? Because those have bad timer accuracy. IIRC there is either an environment variable or rust feature you can use to skip those timer tests.

Also, if cargo nextest run --no-fail-fast otherwise passes, i.e., if the timer test failure is the only failure, please update the PR and I'll have CI run.

Yes, in order for us to land this, CI needs to pass and test coverage needs to be there. (And we need some review approvals.)

The local tests passed except the timer test. I've added a very basic test for the configuration of the connection parameters so far. I did not see any unit tests for the client except one test for a qlog file. Do you need/want some tests for the new clap arguments in some shape or form, and if yes, where is the best place to add them?

Code under neqo-bin doesn't need tests, but all changes under neqo-transport do.

Suggest to use a multiple of INITIAL_RTT instead of hardcoding a value. (We may change INITIAL_RTT at some point.)

Is there a way to test whether the different initial RTT actually causes the desired behavior to happen?

Hmm, for that I guess I have to get more familiar with the main consumer of the configuration, Connection?

I had a look at how this parameter is used inside the Connection structure and I found some usages where I made adaptions. The changes are inside 7b6fe8c . The next step would be to find a way to verify that a different value actually leads to different behavior (on faulty behaviour?). I might have to get a little bit more familiar with QUIC in general before tackling this.
