Worker-side log_forwarder tails the local RFC 5424 log file and ships
each line as an octet-counted frame to the master over mTLS. Offset is
persisted in a tiny local SQLite so master outages never cause loss or
duplication — reconnect resumes from the exact byte where the previous
session left off. Impostor workers (cert not signed by DECNET CA) are
rejected at TLS handshake.
Master-side log_listener terminates mTLS on 0.0.0.0:6514, validates the
client cert, extracts the peer CN as authoritative worker provenance,
and appends each frame to the master's ingest log files. Attacker-
controlled syslog HOSTNAME field is ignored — the CA-controlled CN is
the only source of provenance.
7 tests added covering framing codec, offset persistence across
reopens, end-to-end mTLS delivery, crash-resilience (offset survives
restart, no duplicate shipping), and impostor-CA rejection.
DECNET_SWARM_SYSLOG_PORT / DECNET_SWARM_MASTER_HOST env bindings
added.
