For any other downstream users who need mplex, how would they go about using go-libp2p with it ? From what I understand we will be unable to update Prysm to the next go-libp2p release which contains this PR as we are still required to support mplex.

@nisdas I'm not aware of past conversations regarding this, so apologies if this is incorrect.
The removed package(github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p/p2p/muxer/mplex) looks self contained to me. Can you maintain a fork of that specific package?

@sukunrt That would require me to maintain a separate fork of go-libp2p. I would like to avoid maintaining a fork of go-libp2p if possible here

I haven't looked at this closely, but this should be possible:

  1. Copy the files in package github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p/p2p/muxer/mplex to a new repo.
  2. Rename the package to the repo path.
  3. Pass in the new package mplex muxer to libp2p option func Muxer(name string, muxer network.Multiplexer) Option

So you should be able to only fork the package and not entire go-libp2p.

@sukunrt is right. We built libp2p in such a way that it’s modular: you can bring your own muxer implementation without the need to upstream it.

If that doesn’t work, we did something wrong.

Thank you @sukunrt @marten-seemann , I will take a look at including mplex separately then in a separate repo/package

@nisdas
we've moved this package to https://github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-mplex/
you can just change your import path for the muxer.

Perfect, thanks a lot ! @sukunrt

This change is primarily intended to support go 1.21, but as a
side-effect requires updating libp2p, which in turn triggers an update
of golang.org/x/exp which creates quite a bit of (simple) churn in the
slice sorting.

This change introduces a new `cmp.Compare` function which can be used to
return an integer satisfying the compare interface for slice sorting.

In order to continue to support mplex for libp2p, the change references
github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-mplex instead.  Please see the PR at
libp2p/go-libp2p#2498 for the official usptream
comment that indicates official support for mplex being moved to this
location.
