The new MRT protocol is responsible for periodic RIB table dumps in the
MRT format (RFC 6396). Also the existing code for BGP4MP MRT dumps is
refactored and splitted between BGP to MRT protocols, will be more
integrated into MRT in the future.
Example:
protocol mrt {
table "*";
filename "%N_%F_%T.mrt";
period 60;
}
It is partially based on the old MRT code from Pavel Tvrdik.

If export filter is changed during reconfiguration and a route disappears
between reconfiguration and refeed (e.g., if the route is a static route
also removed during the reconfiguration), the route is not withdrawn.
The patch fixes that by adding tx reconfiguration timestamp.

The patch implements BGP Administrative Shutdown Communication (RFC 8203)
allowing BGP operators to pass messages related to BGP session
administrative shutdown/restart. It handles both transmit and receive of
shutdown messages. Messages are logged and may be displayed by show
protocol all command.
Thanks to Job Snijders for the basic patch.

Add basic VRF (virtual routing and forwarding) support. Protocols can be
associated with VRFs, such protocols will be restricted to interfaces
assigned to the VRF (as reported by Linux kernel) and will use sockets
bound to the VRF. E.g., different multihop BGP instances can use diffent
kernel routing tables to handle BGP TCP connections.
The VRF support is preliminary, currently there are several limitations:
- Recent Linux kernels (4.11) do not handle correctly sockets bound
to interaces that are part of VRF, so most protocols other than multihop
BGP do not work. This will be fixed by future kernel versions.
- Neighbor cache ignores VRFs. Breaks config with the same prefix on
local interfaces in different VRFs. Not much problem as single hop
protocols do not work anyways.
- Olock code ignores VRFs. Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the
same IP address in different VRFs.
- Incoming BGP connections are not dispatched according to VRFs.
Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the same IP address in
different VRFs. Perhaps we would need some kernel API to read VRF of
incoming connection? Or probably use multiple listening sockets in
int-new branch.
- We should handle master VRF interface up/down events and perhaps
disable associated protocols when VRF goes down. Or at least disable
associated interfaces.
- Also we should check if the master iface is really VRF iface and
not some other kind of master iface.
- BFD session request dispatch should be aware of VRFs.
- Perhaps kernel protocol should read default kernel table ID from VRF
iface so it is not necessary to configure it.
- Perhaps we should have per-VRF default table.

This patch implements the IPv6 subset of the Babel routing protocol.
Based on the patch from Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen, with some heavy
modifications and bugfixes.
Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the original patch.

Counter exp_routes is increased during initial route feed after GR
recovery, so it has to start with zero, otherwise BIRD will end with
double value in exp_routes.
|
|
Symbol lookup by cf_find_symbol() not only did the lookup but also added
new void symbols allocated from cfg_mem linpool, which gets broken when
lookups are done outside of config parsing, which may lead to crashes
during reconfiguration.
The patch separates lookup-only cf_find_symbol() and config-modifying
cf_get_symbol(), while the later is called only during parsing. Also
new_config and cfg_mem global variables are NULLed outside of parsing.

Also hook feed_done is renamed to feed_end.
|
|
Make proto_config_new() use this info instead of supplied size.
Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for the patch.

Also significant core protocol state changes needed for that,
global graceful restart recovery state and kernel proto support
for recovery.
|
|
|
|
And not core state change, which is not much relevant
(e.g. refeed in BGP).

Supports OSPF and BGP and also statically configured sessions.
|

|
|
Now it compiles and mostly works.

When route was propagated to another rtable through a pipe and then the
pipe was reconfigured softly in such a way that any subsequent route
updates are filtered, then the source protocol shutdown didn't clean up
the route in the second rtable which caused stale routes and potential
crashes.
|
|
They have different behavior w.r.t. filtered routes that are kept.
|
|
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.
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
When 'import keep rejected' protocol option is activated, routes
rejected by the import filter are kept in the routing table, but they
are hidden and not propagated to other protocols. It is possible to
examine them using 'show route rejected'.
|
|
Allows to send and receive multiple routes for one network by one BGP
session. Also contains necessary core changes to support this (routing
tables accepting several routes for one network from one protocol).
It needs some more cleanup before merging to the master branch.
|
|
|
|
And also fixes some minor bugs in limits.

When a protocol went down, all its routes were flushed in one step, that
may block BIRD for too much time. The patch fixes that by limiting
maximum number of routes flushed in one step.

The nest-protocol interaction is changed to better handle multitable
protocols. Multitable protocols now declare that by 'multitable' field,
which tells nest that a protocol handles things related to proto-rtable
interaction (table locking, announce hook adding, reconfiguration of
filters) itself.
Filters and stats are moved to announce hooks, a protocol could have
different filters and stats to different tables.
The patch is based on one from Alexander V. Chernikov, thanks.

The patch from Alexander V. Chernikov.

Based on the patch from Alexander V. Chernikov.
Extended to support almost all protocols.
Uses 'protocol bgp NAME from TEMPLATE { ... }' syntax.
|
|
When a protocol was enabled interactively (but disabled in the config
file), then reconfigure in some cases forgets to disable it.

Hostcache is a structure for monitoring changes in a routing table that
is used for routes with dynamic/recursive next hops. This is needed for
proper iBGP next hop handling.
|

When device protocol goes down, interfaces should be flushed
asynchronously (in the same way like routes from protocols are flushed),
when protocol goes to DOWN/HUNGRY.
This fixes the problem with static routes staying in kernel routing
table after BIRD shutdown.

- BSD kernel syncer is now self-conscious and can learn alien routes
- important bugfix in BSD kernel syncer (crash after protocol restart)
- many minor changes and bugfixes in kernel syncers and neighbor cache
- direct protocol does not generate host and link local routes
- min_scope check is removed, all routes have SCOPE_UNIVERSE by default
- also fixes some remaining compiler warnings
