2014-02-06Many changes in I/O and OSPF sockets and packet handling.Ondrej Zajicek
I/O: - BSD: specify src addr on IP sockets by IP_HDRINCL - BSD: specify src addr on UDP sockets by IP_SENDSRCADDR - Linux: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IP_PKTINFO - IPv6: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IPV6_PKTINFO - Alternative SKF_BIND flag for binding to IP address - Allows IP/UDP sockets without tx_hook, on these sockets a packet is discarded when TX queue is full - Use consistently SOL_ for socket layer values. OSPF: - Packet src addr is always explicitly set - Support for secondary addresses in BSD - Dynamic RX/TX buffers - Fixes some minor buffer overruns - Interface option 'tx length' - Names for vlink pseudoifaces (vlinkX) - Vlinks use separate socket for TX - Vlinks do not use fixed associated iface - Fixes TTL for direct unicast packets - Fixes DONTROUTE for OSPF sockets - Use ifa->ifname instead of ifa->iface->name

2013-04-23Merge branch 'birdcl'Ondrej Zajicek
2013-04-23Restructures birdc and birdcl to merge duplicated code.Ondrej Zajicek
The BIRD client code is restructured that most of the code (including main function) is shared in client.c, while birdc.c and birdcl.c contain just I/O-specific callbacks. This removes all duplicated code from variant-specific files.
2013-04-17Fixes a compatibility issue in OSPFv2 PtP links.Ondrej Zajicek
BIRD used zero netmask in hello packets on all PtP links, not just on unnumbered ones. This patch fixes it and adds option 'ptp netmask' for overriding the default behavior. Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for the original patch.
2013-04-16Implements 'next hop keep' option for BGP.Ondrej Zajicek
This option allows to keep the received next hop even in cases when the route is sent to an interface with a different subnet.
2013-04-16Better handling of global addresses as configured NBMA neighbors in OSPFv3.Ondrej Zajicek
Configured NBMA neighbors in OSPFv3 should be link-local addresses, old behavior was to silently ignore global ones. The patch allows BIRD to accept global ones, but adds a warning and a documentation notice. Thanks to Wilco Baan Hofman for the bugreport.

2013-01-10Separate import and receive limits.Ondrej Zajicek
They have different behavior w.r.t. filtered routes that are kept.
2012-12-27Implements interface masks for choosing router id.Ondrej Zajicek
Router ID could be automatically determined based of subset of ifaces/addresses specified by 'router id from' option. The patch also does some minor changes related to router ID reconfiguration. Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for most of the work.
2012-12-26Implements undo command and optional timeout for configurationOndrej Zajicek
Several new configure command variants: configure undo - undo last reconfiguration configure timeout - configure with scheduled undo if not confirmed in timeout configure confirm - confirm last configuration configure check - just parse and validate config file
2012-11-27Changes static route targets drop/reject to blackhole/unreachable.Ondrej Zajicek
To be consistent with rest of BIRD and Linux. Old names are also allowed for compatibility.
