Hello Kexianbin,<br>
<br>
This is an UNOFFICIAL response to your question. (But I think the<br>
official developers may have similar answers.)<br>
<br>
Wireguard probably will not accept an official integration to udp2raw.<br>
The reasons are:<br>
<br>
1) Wireguard wants to keep their kernel part code minimized, therefore<br>
easy for security auditing, and less bugs.The UDP protocol is actually<br>
very simple and straightforward. (By the way, if you intended to use<br>
Wireguard in China, be informed that this is a protocol that is very<br>
easy to block by the ISP.)<br>
<br>
2) I have read the source code of udp2raw. To be frank, the code is of<br>
very low quality. For this reason, I don't think udp2raw would be<br>
integrated into Wireguard unless it's rewritten.<br>
<br>
3) Udp2raw is not suitable for everyone or for every country. For<br>
example udp2raw may have problems passing middleboxes, which is common<br>
among satellite ISPs in Oceania. Middleboxes break and resemble TCP<br>
segments thus make udp2raw literally unusable. Also it is not<br>
congestion friendly (by design), so a massive deployment may affect<br>
the global Internet ecology.<br>
<br>
However the good news is, Wireguard provides an open control interface<br>
(see <a href="https://www.wireguard.com/xplatform/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wireguard.com/xpla<wbr>tform/</a> ). By utilizing this<br>
interface, we can develop an alternate frontend application other than<br>
the official command "wg", that automatically sets up the kernel<br>
Wireguard kernel part and a userland udp2raw part, packaged as one<br>
application.<br>
<br>
<br>
My words for Wireguard developers:<br>
<br>
1) In case you may not know the udp2raw protocol, here is a<br>
description. Some ISPs in certain countries have strange QoS strategy<br>
that deprioritize UDP packets during network congestion, resulting a<br>
50% loss rate or more for UDP. The udp2raw protocol simulates a<br>
three-way TCP handshake and add TCP header to UDP packets so they will<br>
not be dropped. This protocol does not do congestion control or rate<br>
control, neither does it understand any TCP semantics. It's a dirty<br>
hack for dirty ISP, not suitable for everyone, but overwhelmingly<br>
useful in certain countries.<br>
<br>
2) Wireguard currently does not support binding to localhost. This is<br>
required for any third-party plugins upon Wireguard to work. We might<br>
need to consider binding to localhost an important feature to go in<br>
the near future.<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
StarBrilliant<br>
