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.

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.

It is an auxiliary key in the routing table, not a route attribute.

2021-10-13fixup! Multipage allocationMaria Matejka
2021-10-13Multipage allocationMaria Matejka
We can also quite simply allocate bigger blocks. Anyway, we need these blocks to be aligned to their size which needs one mmap() two times bigger and then two munmap()s returning the unaligned parts. The user can specify -B <N> on startup when <N> is the exponent of 2, setting the block size to 2^N. On most systems, N is 12, anyway if you know that your configuration is going to eat gigabytes of RAM, you are almost forced to raise your block size as you may easily get into memory fragmentation issues or you have to raise your maximum mapping count, e.g. "sysctl vm.max_map_count=(number)".
