This report covers weekly developments in the moby/vpnkit, mirage/ocaml-dns, mirage/ocaml-hvsock, djs55/ocaml-osx-dnssd and mirage/mirage-tcpip repositories.
TL;DR: There were more DNS fixes around the handling of localhost, to address bugs
reported downstream by Docker for Mac users. This involved disabling the use of multicast DNS on macOS.
- Do not attempt to look up
localhost.localvia mDNS (moby/vpnkit#211), and then entirely disable mDNS on macOS (moby/vpnkit#213 @djs55). - Rename the project from the
docker/org to themoby/organisation (moby/vpnkit#212 @djs55).
The Lwt 3.0.0 release features several deprecated functions and a rearrangement of the packages to be more consistent. Several of the VPNKit packages are being updated to use the recommended interfaces and remain backwards compatible with older Lwt releases (mirage/ocaml-dns#136 mirage/mirage-tcpip#308 @aantron @djs55 @yomimono).
The effort to add HTTP proxy support has stalled until upstream packages such as Cohttp integrated some improvements (moby/vpnkit#20 @dave-tucker [@avsm]). Help welcome in this space; contact @djs55 if interested!
