"""Validate the semantic consistency of a parsed topology.
This module implements the validation stage of the topology pipeline.
The parser answers:
"Can this JSON be represented by the topology grammar?"
The validator answers:
"Does the parsed topology describe a coherent network?"
Validation is intentionally independent of Mininet. It does not create
interfaces, execute commands, print diagnostics, or modify network state.
Instead, it collects semantic issues and raises a TopologyValidationError when
validation fails.

_build_node_index() retains the first declaration for each nonempty name

Link and service checks consult duplicate_names before resolving a known

Args:
nodes: First declaration for each distinct nonempty node name.
duplicate_names: Node names that were declared more than once.
Example:
Suppose the source list contains three Node objects:
topology.nodes = [first_h1, s1, second_h1]
first_h1.name = "h1"
s1.name = "s1"
second_h1.name = "h1"
The resulting lookup has this shape:
node_index = _NodeIndex(
nodes={"h1": first_h1, "s1": s1},
duplicate_names={"h1"},
)
Dictionary keys are logical node names, and values reference the
original Node objects, not copies or positions in the source list.
node_index.nodes["s1"] therefore gives the s1 object directly.
The duplicate set contains names only; it is empty for unique names.
Membership in nodes means a declaration exists, not that it is unique.
Although nodes["h1"] retains first_h1, duplicate_names marks that
reference as ambiguous so link and service checks skip resolving it.
The original topology.nodes list still contains both h1 declarations.
Empty names are reported as issues and excluded from both collections.

"""Validate the semantic consistency of a parsed topology.
Args:
topology: Parsed topology produced by topology_parser.parse_topology().
Returns:
None when no semantic issues are found.
Example:
Input constructed through the public parser:
topology = parse_topology({
"nodes": [{"name": "h1", "type": "host"}],
})
Output:
result = validate(topology)
result is None
Invalid input:
topology = parse_topology({
"nodes": [
{"name": "h1", "type": "host"},
{"name": "h1", "type": "host"},
],
})
validate(topology) raises TopologyValidationError instead of returning.
The exception's issues tuple contains one ValidationIssue with
location="nodes[1].name" and a duplicate-node-name message.
When multiple issues are discovered, they share one exception.
Raises:
TopologyValidationError: If one or more semantic consistency errors are
discovered.
Notes:
Validation is non-destructive and does not invoke Mininet or execute
Linux networking commands. All discovered semantic issues are
collected before the exception is raised.
