+ * LSA entry life cycle
+ *
+ * LSA entries are created by ospf_originate_lsa() (for locally originated LSAs)
+ * or ospf_install_lsa() (for LSAs received from neighbors). A regular (like
+ * newly originated) LSA entry has defined lsa_body nad lsa.age < %LSA_MAXAGE.
+ * When the LSA is requested to be flushed by ospf_flush_lsa(), the lsa.age is
+ * set to %LSA_MAXAGE and flooded. Flush process is finished asynchronously,
+ * when (at least) flooding is acknowledged by neighbors. This is detected in
+ * ospf_update_lsadb(), then ospf_clear_lsa() is called to free the LSA body but
+ * the LSA entry is kept. Such LSA does not formally exist, we keep an empty
+ * entry (until regular timeout) to know inst_time and lsa.sn in the case of
+ * later reorigination. After the timeout, LSA is removed by ospf_remove_lsa().
+ *
+ * When LSA origination is requested (by ospf_originate_lsa()). but it is not
+ * possible to do that immediately (because of MinLSInterval or because the
+ * sequence number is wrapping), The new LSA is scheduled for later origination
+ * in next_lsa_* fields of the LSA entry. The later origination is handled by
+ * ospf_originate_next_lsa() called from ospf_update_lsadb(). We can see that
+ * both real origination and final flush is asynchronous to ospf_originate_lsa()
+ * and ospf_flush_lsa().
+ *
+ * LSA entry therefore could be in three basic states:
+ * R - regular (lsa.age < %LSA_MAXAGE, lsa_body != NULL)
+ * F - flushing (lsa.age == %LSA_MAXAGE, lsa_body != NULL)
+ * E - empty (lsa.age == %LSA_MAXAGE, lsa_body == NULL)
+ *
+ * And these states are doubled based on whether the next LSA is scheduled
+ * (next_lsa_body != NULL, -n suffix) or not (next_lsa_body == NULL). We also
+ * use X for a state of non-existentce. We have this basic state graph
+ * (transitions from any state to R are omitted for clarity):
+ *
+ * X --> R ---> F ---> E --> X
+ * | \ / | |
+ * | \/ | |
+ * | /\ | |
+ * | / \ | |
+ * Rn --> Fn --> En
+ *
+ * The transitions are:
+ *
+ * any state -> R - new LSA origination requested and executed
+ * R -> Rn, F -> Fn, E -> En - new LSA origination requested and postponed
+ * R -> Fn - new LSA origination requested, seqnum wrapping
+ * Rn,Fn,En -> R - postponed LSA finally originated
+ * R -> R - LSA refresh done
+ * R -> Fn - LSA refresh with seqnum wrapping
+ * R -> F, Rn -> Fn - LSA age timeout
+ * R,Rn,Fn -> F, En -> E - LSA flush requested
+ * F -> E, Fn -> En - LSA flush done (acknowledged)
+ * E -> X - LSA real age timeout (or immediate for received LSA)
+ *
+ * The 'origination requested' and 'flush requested' transitions are triggered
+ * and done by ospf_originate_lsa() and ospf_flush_lsa(), the rest is handled
+ * asynchronously by ospf_update_lsadb().
+ *
+ * The situation is significantly simpler for non-local (received) LSAs - there
+ * is no postponed origination and after flushing is done, LSAs are immediately
+ * removed, so it is just X -> R -> F -> X, or X -> F -> X (when MaxAge LSA is
+ * received).
+ *
+ * There are also some special cases related to handling of received unknown
+ * self-originated LSAs in ospf_advance_lsa():
+ * X -> F - LSA is received and immediately flushed
+ * R,Rn -> Fn - LSA with MaxSeqNo received and flushed, current LSA scheduled

+ * LSA entry modes:
+ *
+ * LSA_M_BASIC - The LSA is explicitly originated using ospf_originate_lsa() and
+ * explicitly flushed using ospf_flush_lsa(). When the LSA is changed, the
+ * routing table calculation is scheduled. This is also the mode used for LSAs
+ * received from neighbors. Example: Router-LSAs, Network-LSAs.
+ *
+ * LSA_M_EXPORT - like LSA_M_BASIC, but the routing table calculation does not
+ * depend on the LSA. Therefore, the calculation is not scheduled when the LSA
+ * is changed. Example: AS-external-LSAs for exported routes.
+ *
+ * LSA_M_RTCALC - The LSA has to be requested using ospf_originate_lsa() during
+ * each routing table calculation, otherwise it is flushed automatically at the
+ * end of the calculation. The LSA is a result of the calculation and not a
+ * source for it. Therefore, the calculation is not scheduled when the LSA is
+ * changed. Example: Summary-LSAs.
+ *
+ * LSA_M_STALE - Temporary state for LSA_M_RTCALC that is not requested during
+ * the current routing table calculation.
+ *
+ *
+ * Note that we do not schedule the routing table calculation when the age of
+ * LSA_M_BASIC LSA is changed to MaxAge because of the sequence number wrapping,
+ * As it will be switched back to a regular one ASAP.
