`SampleMode::Exact` retained exact samples for eight of the eleven public
timing metrics. Send call, timer error, and server processing always built
their `TimeMetric` with retention disabled, so a finite run reported no
median for them even though they are the same public `TimeStats` type and
appear in the same summary table with a Median column.
Derive one `retain_exact` decision from the sample mode in `CoreStats::new`
and apply it to every timing metric, so exact mode means the same thing for
all of them. Running-only mode is unchanged and still retains none of them.
The retention estimator counted eight exact sample streams per measurable
reply. Rename it to the eleven exact samples an ordinary successful probe
can retain and document the wider optional-measurement upper bound, which
raises the finite estimate on this target from 668 to 764 bytes per probe.
A test counts the metrics a fully measured probe actually retains and
compares it against that constant, so retention and its estimate cannot
drift apart unnoticed.
No new median-capability type was needed: `TimeStats::median_ns` already
distinguishes a retained median from an absent one, and an optional
measurement the server never supplied still produces no samples at all.
An audit of the server-reported receive window found no defect in the
statistics pipeline: the bitmap is decoded raw, stored raw, never
interpreted, and never feeds the directional loss estimates, which use
the cumulative server receive count.
The public rustdoc was silent on all of that, leaving consumers of
PacketCounts free to read a window of 0x1 as a 63-packet loss burst.
Document the field's contract, name the count as the only server input
to LossStats, and cover the window-only case with a regression test.
Allow one-way delay samples to represent negative values caused by wall-clock skew between client and server. Update CLI output and statistics collection to correctly handle and report these signed durations.
Hide internal fields to improve type safety and provide helper methods for unit conversions and negative value checks. Fix several feature-gated test compilation issues.
Simplify RttSample by merging signed and unsigned fields into a single SignedDuration for adjusted and effective RTT. This ensures accurate reporting and statistics when server processing time exceeds raw RTT.
Rename system_time_ns to unix_time_ns_after_epoch for better clarity on output behavior and update a continuous mode test case name to more accurately reflect its purpose.
