Rename the program to sww and its deciding daemon to discriminator
The program is now sww, built from cmd/sww, with two modes: sww rproxy and
sww discriminator. servewaf becomes discriminator everywhere it names that
daemon: the package (internal/discriminator), its types, functions, files, the
discriminator_line log field, and its docs and tests.

smallwebwaf is left only where sneak's directive allows it: the documents'
product name, the git.eeqj.de/sneak/smallwebwaf URLs, and the Go module path
sneak.berlin/go/smallwebwaf. Everywhere else a name containing it takes the sww
form: the package (internal/sww), metric names (sww_*), the X-Sww-* headers,
the /_sww/ admin endpoints, the OS user, and the state and rules directories.
The SWWAF_ environment variables take the SWW_ form.

No logic changes. make check passes.

What the image holds

The contents of the smallwebwaf image, and how each part is pinned. The image runs rproxy by default, or discriminator with SWW_COMMAND=discriminator. "Deployment" in SPEC.md says why each part is there and why it is pinned that way.

Contents

  • Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, pinned by digest.
  • ca-certificates, nix-bin and runit from Ubuntu's archive.
  • Nix, with nixpkgs nixos-26.05.11045.774debe7a0d1 set up for root as nixpkgs. No Nix daemon; build-users-group = in /etc/nix/nix.conf. Root's Nix profile, /nix/var/nix/profiles/default/bin, last on the PATH. Unpacked, nixpkgs takes about 500 MiB.
  • runsvinit as the entrypoint, built from github.com/peterbourgon/runsvinit at a fixed commit hash.
  • The sww binary, and the user sww (uid and gid 65532).
  • The service directory /etc/service/sww, with the run script share/sww.run.
  • /var/lib/sww for discriminator's state files, and /etc/sww/rules.d with the default rule file share/rules.d/00-default.rules.
  • EXPOSE 8080, and the HEALTHCHECK that runs sww healthcheck.

Pins

  • Ubuntu's packages are not pinned: they come from the live archive, whose packages change with every update.
  • nixpkgs: the release file nixexprs.tar.xz of nixos-26.05.11045.774debe7a0d1 on releases.nixos.org, named with its SHA-256 hash.
  • runsvinit: the archived repository, unchanged since 2015, at its last commit (b4b2c78, eight commits after v2.0.0), by commit hash, with a go.mod the build writes.
  • The Go image that builds sww: by digest.
