This reverts commit 7144c9ca46f092da33a4e051bbce8f973a3bd8c4.
The onlink attribute implementation collides with the nexthop attribute
behavior in v3; keeping it aside until finding out how to reimplement it
correctly.

On large configurations, too many threads would spawn with one thread
per loop. Therefore, threads may now run multiple loops at once. The
thread count is configurable and may be changed during run. All threads
are spawned on startup.
This change helps with memory bloating. BIRD filters need large
temporary memory blocks to store their stack and also memory management
keeps its hot page storage per-thread.
Known bugs:
* Thread autobalancing is not yet implemented.
* Low latency loops are executed together with standard loops.

If no channel is flushing, table prune doesn't walk over routes in nets
and also doesn't walk over importing channel lists. This helps to
alleviate the memory caching burdens a lot.

Some CLI actions, notably "show route", are run by queuing an event
somewhere else. If the user closes the socket, in case such an action is
being executed, the CLI must free the socket immediately from the error
hook but the pool must remain until the asynchronous event finishes and
cleans everything up.

Add static route attribute to set onlink flag for route next hop. Can be
used to build a dynamically routed IP-in-IP overlay network. Usage:
ifname = "tunl0";
onlink = true;
gw = bgp_next_hop;
|

The usage pattern implemented in allocator seems to be incompatible with
transparent huge pages, as memory released using madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
with regular page size and alignment does not seem to trigger demotion
of huge pages back to regular pages, even when significant number of
pages is released. Even if demotion is triggered when system memory
is low, it still breaks memory accounting.

Add support for kernel route metric/priority, exported as krt_metric
attribute, like in Linux. This should also fix issues with overwriting
or removing system routes.

Log message before aborting due to watchdog timeout. We have to use
async-safe write to debug log, as it is done in signal handler.

Most branching instructions (FI_CONDITION, FI_AND, FI_OR) linearize its
branches in a recursive way, while FI_SWITCH branches are linearized
from parser even before the switch instruction is allocated.
Change linearization of FI_SWITCH branches to make it similar to other
branching instructions. This also fixes an issue with constant
switch evaluation, where linearized branch is mistaken for
non-linearized during switch construction.
Thanks to Jiten Kumar Pathy for the bugreport.

Some of these new BGP role keywords use generic names that collides with
user-defined symbols. Allow them to be redefined. Also remove duplicit
keyword definition for 'prefer'.

During backporting attribute changes from 3.0-branch, some internal
attributes (RIP iface and Babel seqno) leaked to 'show route all' output.
Allow protocols to hide specific attributes with GA_HIDDEN value.
Thanks to Nigel Kukard for the bugreport.

In some cases 16-way tries are too memory-heavy, while 4-way are
almost as efficient as the original 2-way ones.

There were some confusion about validity and usage of pflags, which
caused incorrect usage after some flags from (now removed) protocol-
specific area were moved to pflags.
We state that pflags:
- Are secondary data used by protocol-specific hooks
- Can be changed on an existing route (in contrast to copy-on-write
for primary data)
- Are irrelevant for propagation (not propagated when changed)
- Are specific to a routing table (not propagated by pipe)
The patch did these fixes:
- Do not compare pflags in rte_same(), as they may keep cached values
like BGP_REF_STALE, causing spurious propagation.
- Initialize pflags to zero in rte_get_temp(), avoid initialization in
protocol code, fixing at least two forgotten initializations (krt
and one case in babel).
- Improve documentation about pflags

The seqno request retransmission handling was tracking the destination
that a forwarded request was being sent to and always retransmitting to
that same destination. This is unnecessary because we only need to
retransmit requests we originate ourselves, not those we forward on
behalf of others; in fact retransmitting on behalf of others can lead to
exponential multiplication of requests, which would be bad.
So rework the seqno request tracking so that instead of storing the
destination of a request, we just track whether it was a request that we
forwarded on behalf of another node, or if it was a request we originated
ourselves. Forwarded requests are not retransmitted, they are only used
for duplicate suppression, and for triggering an update when satisfied.
If we end up originating a request that we previously forwarded, we
"upgrade" the old request and restart the retransmit counter.
One complication with this is that requests sent in response to unfeasible
updates (section 3.8.2.2 of the RFC) have to be sent as unicast to a
particular peer. However, we don't really need to retransmit those as
there's no starvation when sending such a request; so we just change
such requests to be one-off unicast requests that are not subject to
retransmission or duplicate suppression. This is the same behaviour as
babeld has for such requests.

Use symlinks to linux/netlink* to avoid limitations of our buildsystem.

FreeBSD 13.0 added some safechecks for syscalls, rejecting sockaddrs that
are too small, later versions loosen up the check.

Thanks Johannes Moos for the suggestion.

When there is a continuos stream of CLI commands, cli_get_command()
always returns 1 (there is a new command). Anyway, the socket receive
buffer was reset only when there was no command at all, leading to a
strange behavior: after a while, the CLI receive buffer came to its end,
then read() was called with zero size buffer, it returned 0 which was
interpreted as EOF.
The patch fixes that by resetting the buffer position after each command
and moving remaining data at the beginning of buffer.
Thanks to Maria Matejka for examining the bug and for the original bugfix.

The import table does not work reliably together with re-evaluation of
routes due to recursive next hops or flowspec validation. We will at
least document that here, as import tables are completely redesigned and
this issue is fixed in BIRD 3.x branch.

Netlink support was added to FreeBSD recently. It is not as full-featured
as its Linux counterpart yet, however the added subset is enough to make
a routing daemon work. Specifically, it supports multiple tables,
multipath, nexthops and nexthops groups. No MPLS support yet.
The attached change adds 'bsd-netlink’ sysconf target, allowing to build
both netlink & rtsock versions on FreeBSD.

The effective keepalive time now scales relative to the negotiated
hold time, to maintain proportion between the keepalive time and the
hold time. This avoids issues when both keepalive and hold times
were configured, the hold time was negotiated to a smaller value,
but the keepalive time stayed the same.
Add new options 'min hold time' and 'min keepalive time', which reject
session attempts with too small hold time.
Improve validation of config options an their documentation.
Thanks to Alexander Zubkov and Sergei Goriunov for suggestions.

When filtered routes (enabled by 'import keep filtered' option) are
updated, they trigger announcements by rte_announce(). For regular
channels (e.g. type RA_OPTIMAL or RA_ANY) such announcement is just
ignored, but in case of RA_ACCEPTED (BGP peer with 'secondary' option)
it just reannounces the old (and still valid) best route.
The patch ensures that such no-change is ignored even for these channels.
