2022-08-02Revert "Split route table event into separate events"Maria Matejka
This reverts commit 445eeaf3df126af2c7b61e71c4f08a583eb4fa60.
2022-08-02Revert "Table cork: Stop creating updates when there are too many pending."Maria Matejka
This reverts commit 3b20722a1fc777c27ab2e0451d0ea3fee7fa81a2.
2021-11-22Table cork: Stop creating updates when there are too many pending.Maria Matejka
The corked procedure gets a callback when uncorked. Supported by table maintenance routines and also BGP.
2021-11-22Split route table event into separate eventsMaria Matejka
The former rt_event is dropped in favour of separate table events. This allows for selective corking of NHU and prune.
2021-11-22Adding a generic cork mechanism for eventsMaria Matejka
2021-11-22Converting the former BFD loop to a universal IO loop and protocol loop.Maria Matejka
There is a simple universal IO loop, taking care of events, timers and sockets. Primarily, one instance of a protocol should use exactly one IO loop to do all its work, as is now done in BFD. Contrary to previous versions, the loop is now launched and cleaned by the nest/proto.c code, allowing for a protocol to just request its own loop by setting the loop's lock order in config higher than the_bird. It is not supported nor checked if any protocol changed the requested lock order in reconfigure. No protocol should do it at all.
2021-11-22Moved BFD IO loop out of BFD as we want to use it as socket-io coroutineMaria Matejka
2021-11-22Unified time for whole BIRDMaria Matejka
In previous versions, every thread used its own time structures, effectively leading to different time in every thread and strange logging messages. The time processing code now uses global atomic variables to keep current time available for fast concurrent reading and safe updates.
2021-11-22Debug messages with timestamps.Maria Matejka
On most of current hardware, getting monotonic clock is fast enough to get it and write for each debug message.

2021-11-22Type checking in SKIP_BACK macroMaria Matejka
2021-11-22Route export is now asynchronous.Maria Matejka
To allow for multithreaded execution, we need to break the import-export chain and buffer the exports before actually processing them.
2021-11-22Better profylaction recursive route loopsMaria Matejka
In some specific configurations, it was possible to send BIRD into an infinite loop of recursive next hop resolution. This was caused by route priority inversion. To prevent priority inversions affecting other next hops, we simply refuse to resolve any next hop if the best route for the matching prefix is recursive or any other route with the same preference is recursive. Next hop resolution doesn't change route priority, therefore it is perfectly OK to resolve BGP next hops e.g. by an OSPF route, yet if the same (or covering) prefix is also announced by iBGP, by retraction of the OSPF route we would get a possible priority inversion.
2021-11-22Special table hooks rectified.Maria Matejka
* internal tables are now more standalone, having their own import and export hooks * route refresh/reload uses stale counter instead of stale flag, allowing to drop walking the table at the beginning * route modify (by BGP LLGR) is now done by a special refeed hook, reimporting the modified routes directly without filters
2021-11-22Table import and export are now explicit hooks.Maria Matejka
Channels have now included rt_import_req and rt_export_req to hook into the table instead of just one list node. This will (in future) allow for: * channel import and export bound to different tables * more efficient pipe code (dropping most of the channel code) * conversion of 'show route' to a special kind of export * temporary static routes from CLI The import / export states are also updated to the new algorithms.

2021-11-09Route export: rejected by filter bitmapMaria Matejka
If a route has been rejected by filter, store that information to avoid repeated export filter runs on rejected routes.

2021-11-09Split route data structure to storage (ro) / manipulation (rw) structures.Maria Matejka
Routes are now allocated only when they are just to be inserted to the table. Updating a route needs a locally allocated route structure. Ownership of the attributes is also now not transfered from protocols to tables and vice versa but just borrowed which should be easier to handle in a multithreaded environment.

2021-10-13IGP metric getter refactoring to protocol callbackMaria Matejka
Direct protocol hooks for IGP metric inside nest/rt-table.c make the protocol API unnecessarily complex. Instead, we use a proper callback.
2021-10-13Route: moved rte_src pointer from rta to rteMaria Matejka
It is an auxiliary key in the routing table, not a route attribute.

This is needed to provide the protocols the full old route after filters when export table is enabled.
