This issue has a long history. In 2012, we changed data field for
unnumbered PtP links from iface id (specified by RFC) to IP address based
on reports of bugs in Quagga that required it, and we used out-of-band
information to distinquish unnumberred PtPs with the same local IP
address.
Then with OSPF graceful restart implementation, we found that we can no
longer use out-of-band information, and we need to use only LSAdb info
for routing table calculation, but i forgot to finish handling of this
case, so multiple unnumbered PtPs with the same local IP addresses were
broken.
Considering that even recent Mikrotik RouterOS has broken next hop
calculation that depends on IP address in PtP link data field, we
cannot just switch back to the iface id for unnumbered PtP links.
The patch makes two changes: First, it goes back to use out-of-band
(position) info for distinguishing local interfaces in SPF when graceful
restart is not enabled, while still uses LSAdb-only approach for SPF
calculation when graceful restart is enabled.
Second, it adds OSPF interface option 'ptp address', which controls
whether IP address or iface id is used in data field. It is enabled
by default except for unnumbered PtP links with enabled graceful
restart.
Thanks to Kenth Eriksson for the bugreport and Joakim Tjernlund for
suggestions.

There is nothing in RFCs specifying that id 0 is not allowed. Some
implementations does not support it, while some other use key id 0 by
default. We allow it but start with key id 1 by default.
Thanks to Kenth Eriksson for the bugreport.

Implement regex-like '+' operator in BGP path masks to match previous
path mask item multiple times. This is useful as ASNs may appear
multiple times in paths due to path prepending for traffic engineering
purposes.

No need for this debug filter command and it can be abused from CLI.

Allows to configure IPv4/IPv6-only or direct/multihop-only BFD protocol
instances.

This is optional check described in RFC 4271. Although this can be also
done by filters, it is widely implemented option in BGP implementations.
Thanks to Eugene Bogomazov for the original patch.

The patch implements optional internal export table to a channel and
hooks it to BGP so it can be used as Adj-RIB-Out. When enabled, all
exported (post-filtered) routes are stored there. An export table can be
examined using e.g. 'show route export table bgp1.ipv4'.

Add option to send solicited router advertisements as unicast directly
to soliciting nodes instead of as multicast to all-nodes group.

The command initiating planned graceful restart including bird shutdown
should be called 'graceful restart' instead of 'graceful down', as the
later should be reserved for graceful shutdown in style of RFC 8326.
|

|

|
When 'graceful down' command is entered, protocols are shut down
with regard to graceful restart. Namely Kernel protocol does
not remove routes and BGP protocol does not send notification,
just closes the connection.

Allow to specify just 'internal' or 'external' for remote neighbor
instead of specific ASN. In the second case that means BGP peers with
any non-local ASNs are accepted.
|
|
|
|
Allow to mark channel to be mandatory, and do not allow BGP sessions if
no common AFI/SAFI is established.

This protocol is highly experimental and nobody should use it in
production. Anyway it may help you getting some insight into what eats
so much time in filter processing.

Extend 'next hop keep' and 'next hop self' options to have boolean values
(enabled / disabled) and also values 'ibgp'/ 'ebgp' to restrict it to
routes received from IBGP / EBGP. This allows to have it enabled by
default in some cases, matches features of other implementations, and
allows to handle some strange cases like EBGP border router with 'next
hop self' also doing IBGP route reflecting.
Change default of 'next hop keep' to enabled for route servers, and
'ibgp' for route reflectors.
Update documentation for these options.

It reduces clutter in root and also avoid collision with doc dir on
case-insensitive filesystems when name back to Doc.

For local route marking purposes, local custom route attributes may be
defined. These attributes are seamlessly stripped after export filter to
every real protocol like Kernel, BGP or OSPF, they however pass through
pipes. We currently allow at most 256 custom attributes.
This should be much faster than currently used bgp communities
for marking routes.

The existing paths are valid for Debian, alternative paths are necessary
for Fedora and RHEL/CentOS.

The old behavior was that enabling debugging did many nontrivial changes
in BIRD behavior. The patch changes it that these changes are generally
independent. Compiling with --enable-debug now just enables compile-time
debug macros, but do not automatically activate debug mode (-d) nor local
mode (-l). Debug mode with output to file (-D) do not force foreground
mode (-f), therefore there is no need for backgroud option (-b), which is
removed. Also fixes a bug when the default log target in -D mode was
stderr instead of given debug file.

Allow to change an interface associated with a route by setting
ifname attribute. It will also change the route to a direct one.

Pipe mode was removed in 2.0, remove reference to it in the documentation.

The patch implements long-lived graceful restart for BGP, namely
draft-uttaro-idr-bgp-persistence-03.
