hperf is unusable on IPv6-only clusters. Three separate places assume IPv4.

1. Server cannot bind an IPv6 address

Fiber v2 defaults to NetworkTCP4, and server/server.go never set Network:

$ hperf server --address '[2607:...:79ee]:9010' --real-ip 2607:...:79ee
failed to listen: listen tcp4: address 2607:...:79ee: no suitable address found

--address '[::]:9010' started but silently bound 0.0.0.0 only, so [::1]:9010 and the node's v6 address refused connections. Fixed with Network: fiber.NetworkTCP.

2. Client mangles IPv6 literals

client/client.go built the websocket URL as host + ":" + port:

$ hperf latency --hosts 2607:...:c2fa --port 9010
ERROR:  dial tcp: address 2607:...:c2fa:9010: too many colons in address

Fixed with net.JoinHostPort. Pre-bracketing --hosts is not a workaround — the server already uses JoinHostPort for the inter-node URLs, so brackets would double up there.

3. Table renders every IPv6 host as 2601

client/table.go stripped the port with strings.Split(addr, ":")[0], which cuts an IPv6 literal at its first colon:

Created  Local           Remote
23:57:32 2601            [2601

The stored data was always correct (download/analyze files hold full addresses) — this was display only. Now uses net.SplitHostPort, and the Local/Remote columns grow to fit the widest address so the header stays aligned. IPv4 output is unchanged (width stays 15, port still stripped from Remote).

Verification

Two servers on two global IPv6 addresses, plus an IPv4 pair as a regression check:

Check Result
bind [<v6>]:9010 LISTEN [2601:...:a94c]:9010
bind [::]:9010 LISTEN *:9010 (dual-stack, was 0.0.0.0)
latency over v6, 2 nodes pass, full addresses in table
bandwidth over v6, 2 nodes pass, 915 MB/s peak, 0 errors
list, download, analyze over v6 pass
listen over v6 attaches; identical to IPv4 (see below)
IPv4 two-node latency + table unchanged
gofmt / go vet / go test ./... clean

hperf latency --print-all over IPv6 after the fix:

Created  Local                                  Remote                                 RMS(high) ...
00:07:34 2601:647:4482:a340:cee9:697f:cce:da4   2601:647:4482:a340:ebb8:537c:5b7f:a94c 2         ...

Not addressed

  • hperf listen prints no data points. Measured on both families against a live test: v6 and v4 both attach and stay attached with zero output. Pre-existing and unrelated to the address family.
  • server/server.go:389 self-filters with strings.Contains(joinedHostPort, realIP). On IPv6 this prefix-collides — --real-ip fd00::1 matches [fd00::10]:9010 and silently drops a legitimate peer. It also misses when --real-ip and --hosts spell the same address differently (expanded vs compressed). Short ULAs from a Helm values file would hit this; long SLAAC addresses will not.

Reported against v5.0.6 (quay.io/minio/hperf:v5.0.6), linux/arm64, hostNetwork on IPv6-only Kubernetes nodes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added IPv4/IPv6 selection with the --ip-family option.
    • Added configurable DNS resolution through --dns-server.
    • Improved IPv6 support, including host parsing, URL construction, and scoped addresses.
    • Live performance tables now adjust host columns for longer IPv6 values.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved host matching to prevent incorrect partial or self-host matches.
    • Added clearer handling for server binding failures and address formats.
  • Documentation

    • Updated usage, configuration, IPv6, DNS, and troubleshooting guidance.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for host normalization, matching, parsing, IPv6 formatting, and table display.

Fiber v2 defaults to NetworkTCP4, so `--address '[<v6>]:9010'` failed with
"listen tcp4: ... no suitable address found" and `[::]:9010` silently bound
0.0.0.0 only. Set Network to tcp for dual-stack listeners.

The client built its websocket URL by concatenating host, ":" and port, which
produced "too many colons in address" for IPv6 hosts. Use net.JoinHostPort.

The table stripped the port with strings.Split(addr, ":")[0], which cut IPv6
addresses at their first colon and rendered every host as "2601". Strip the
port with net.SplitHostPort and grow the Local/Remote columns to fit the
widest address, leaving IPv4 output unchanged.

Client URLs and host-column rendering
client/client.go, client/table.go, client/table_test.go
Builds escaped WebSocket URLs, uses semantic self-host checks, selects live rendering, and expands table columns for IPv6 hosts.
Server binding and self-host filtering
server/server.go, server/self_test.go
Uses explicit TCP networking, returns listener errors, compares self hosts semantically, and uses URL-formatted request addresses.
Go 1.26 toolchain and CI updates
go.mod, .github/workflows/*
Targets Go 1.26, updates dependencies, and adds formatting, build, vet, and race-test CI checks.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8069b

The PR enables IPv6 server binding, client connections, and address display, but the current head still has bounded correctness issues for scoped IPv6 literals and live table alignment, and adds a CI workflow with excessive token/credential exposure and mutable action references. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Comment thread client/client.go Outdated
Comment thread client/table.go Outdated
Applies two review findings from PR #28.

A scoped IPv6 address such as fe80::1%eth0 made url.Parse fail with
`invalid URL escape "%et"`, so both the client websocket dial and the
server's inter-node requests were rejected before reaching the network.
shared.URLHostPort percent-encodes the zone delimiter as RFC 6874
requires, and both callers use it. The server keeps the unencoded
address for stats and error messages.

growHostColumns now reports whether it widened a column, so the live
table reprints its header instead of emitting rows wider than the
header above them.

Adds tests for URLHostPort, hostColumnValue and growHostColumns.

Review feedback addressed

Both findings were valid. Applied in 7ff8d28.

1. Scoped IPv6 zones (client/client.go) — confirmed on go1.26.6:

ERROR:  parse "ws://[fe80::980c:7a3a:48de:58b%wlp0s20f3]:9010/ws/...": invalid URL escape "%wl"

The same construction exists in server/server.go (proto+r.addr+route), so a client-only fix would have left zoned hosts failing on the inter-node requests. Added shared.URLHostPort, which percent-encodes the zone delimiter per RFC 6874, and used it on both sides; the server keeps the unencoded address for stats and error messages. A zoned link-local host now completes the websocket handshake where it previously errored out.

2. Header refresh when host columns grow (client/table.go)growHostColumns now returns whether it widened a column, and praseDataPoint reprints the header when it did, instead of emitting rows wider than the header above them.

Tests added (first in the repo): shared/url_test.go covers URLHostPort across IPv4, hostname, bare IPv6, ::1 and scoped IPv6, asserting each result round-trips through url.Parse back to the original hostname. client/table_test.go covers hostColumnValue and growHostColumns.

Files changed: shared/shared.go, client/client.go, client/table.go, server/server.go, plus the two test files.

Verified: go vet ./... and go test ./... pass; two-node IPv6 and IPv4 mesh runs of latency and bandwidth still pass with 0 errors, and list/download work over IPv6.

Host entries reached the wire in whatever spelling the operator typed, and
every comparison on them was a substring match.

ParseHosts now pushes each entry through shared.NormalizeHost, which drops the
brackets around an IPv6 literal and canonicalizes IP literals, so
[2001:db8::1], 2001:db8::1 and 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 are one
host from there on. Bracketed hosts used to work for the websocket only
commands and started failing with `invalid URL escape "%5B"` once URLHostPort
percent encoded them; they work again, in every command.

shared.SameHost replaces the substring comparisons. --host-filter 10.0.0.1 no
longer also returns 10.0.0.11, and filtering on fd00::1 no longer returns
fd00::10. shared.HostOnly replaces the local port stripping in the table.

--dns-server was only logged, never used: hostnames were resolved through the
system resolver and the first address won. It now builds a resolver that
queries the given server, and the new --ip-family (auto, 4 or 6) selects the
family, which is what an IPv6 only cluster addressed by name needs.
The self filter matched --real-ip as a substring of the peer address, so a
server dropped every peer whose address extended its own. On a four node mesh
with 10.89.7.2, 10.89.7.20, 10.89.7.21 and 10.89.7.200 that means the .2 node
tested nothing and .20 skipped .200: 8 of 12 directed pairs measured, one line
of output about it, exit status 0. IPv6 collides the same way, fd00::1 against
fd00::10. isSelfHost compares addresses through shared.SameHost instead, and
treats a wildcard bind as no information about our own identity.

A failed bind was printed from inside a goroutine while the main loop kept
running, so a server that could not listen stayed up and refused every
connection - a container in that state reports Up and a pod reports Ready. The
listener error is now returned, and the process exits non zero.
The Stats handler was wired to the collect only path, which left the printing
path orphaned and made `hperf listen` attach to a test and then sit silent.
Attached clients now print each data point as it arrives, which is also what
makes the header refresh on a grown column useful. Running tests keep printing
their own aggregate table.

filterSelf compares hosts through shared.SameHost, and the debug lines join
host and port instead of concatenating them.
The only workflow was govulncheck, so nothing built the code or ran the tests
on a pull request. Adds a workflow that checks formatting, builds, vets and
runs the tests with -race.

Documents the IPv6 host and bind forms, --ip-family and --dns-server, and the
fact that a wildcard bind now accepts both address families: with
fiber.NetworkTCP, --address 0.0.0.0:9010 listens on IPv6 as well, which
matters for an unauthenticated API.

GitHub Actions workflow syntax permissions GITHUB_TOKEN default repository organization settings pull_request contents read documentation

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, the GITHUB_TOKEN is a unique, automatically generated secret used to authenticate workflows [1]. You can control its permissions using the permissions key in your workflow YAML file, which allows you to define granular, least-privilege access for the entire workflow or individual jobs [2][3]. Default Permissions The default permissions for the GITHUB_TOKEN are determined by settings configured at the enterprise, organization, or repository level [2][4]. Administrators can choose between two main options: - Read and write permissions: The GITHUB_TOKEN is granted broad access. - Read repository contents and packages permissions: The GITHUB_TOKEN is restricted to read-only access for these specific scopes [5][4]. If an organization or enterprise enforces a restrictive default, individual repositories cannot override it to be more permissive [5][6]. Conversely, regardless of the repository or organization default, any user with write access to the repository can use the permissions key in a workflow file to further restrict or adjust the token's access for specific jobs [5][7]. Special Cases for Pull Requests - Pull Requests from Forks: For security reasons, workflows triggered by pull_request events from forked repositories are always granted a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN, regardless of the configured repository or organization settings [2][8][9]. - Write Tokens: If you need a workflow to perform write operations (such as pushing code or commenting) on a pull request, you may need to use the pull_request_target event instead, provided the workflow context is trusted [9]. Additionally, there is a setting, Send write tokens to workflows from pull requests, which, if enabled, affects how permissions are applied; if this is not selected, write permissions are downgraded to read-only for pull requests [2][8]. Principle of Least Privilege It is a recommended security practice to explicitly define the permissions for every workflow using the permissions key, rather than relying on default settings [3][10]. By setting unused permissions to none, you reduce the risk of unauthorized access if a workflow or action is compromised [11][10]. Syntax Example To set permissions, add a permissions block to your workflow file: permissions: contents: read issues: write pull-requests: none

actions/checkout v4 persist-credentials default true local git config official README

💡 Result:

In actions/checkout v4, the persist-credentials input defaults to true [1][2][3]. When this setting is enabled (the default), the action automatically persists the GitHub Actions authentication token in the local git configuration [1][4]. This allows your workflow scripts to run authenticated git commands (e.g., git push or git fetch) without requiring additional configuration [1][4]. The action ensures this token is removed during the post-job cleanup process [1][4]. If you wish to disable this behavior for security reasons or if you are using a different authentication method, you can opt out by setting persist-credentials to false in your workflow file [1][4]: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 with: persist-credentials: false

Disable checkout credential persistence. Subsequent steps execute repository-controlled Go code. Set persist-credentials: false so actions/checkout does not leave the checkout token in the local Git configuration.

Comment on lines +121 to +134
Servers need a listener on an IPv6 address:

```bash
# Dual-stack: accepts IPv4 and IPv6 on every interface
./hperf server --address '[::]:9010'

# A single IPv6 address, with the same address reported in results
./hperf server --address '[2001:db8::1]:9010' --real-ip 2001:db8::1
```

Note that a wildcard bind (`0.0.0.0:9010` or `[::]:9010`, including the
default) listens for both address families. Bind a specific address if you
need to restrict the server to one family. The server API is unauthenticated,
so this matters when the port is reachable from untrusted networks.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Qualify the wildcard-listener explanation in both documentation locations. Fiber's NetworkTCP maps to Go's tcp; wildcard listeners may be dual-stack when IPv4-mapped IPv6 is supported, but can fall back to family-specific behavior on platforms that do not support it. Document both possible outcomes rather than implying that either wildcard form is always family-specific or always dual-stack.

In `@README.md` around lines 121 - 134, Update the wildcard-bind explanation in
the server networking documentation to reflect Fiber’s NetworkTCP “tcp”
behavior: both 0.0.0.0:9010 and [::]:9010 may accept IPv4 and IPv6 through

IPv4-mapped IPv6 is unavailable. Keep the guidance about binding a specific
address to restrict the server’s address family.

**Symptom**: Unusually high throughput or low latency results
**Solution**: Ensure `--real-ip` matches the external IP used for inter-server communication
