Instead of propagating interface updates as they are loaded from kernel,
they are enqueued and all the notifications are called from a
protocol-specific event. This change allows to break the locking loop
between protocols and interfaces.
Anyway, this change is based on v2 branch to keep the changes between v2
and v3 smaller.

This makes for safer and faster pruning and notifying as protocol now on
its shutdown prunes only its neighbors and nothing else.
|
|
The interface list must be flushed when device protocol is stopped. This
was done in a hardcoded specific hook inside generic protocol routines.
The cleanup hook was originally used for table reference counting late
cleanup, yet it can be also simply used for prettier interface list flush.

Notably, it's in a corked state and also when refeed is pending.

It is useful to distinguish whehter channel config returned from
channel_config_get() was allocated new, or existing from template.
Caller may want to initialize new ones.
|
|
In principle, the channel list is a list of parent struct proto and can
contain general structures of type struct channel, That is useful e.g.
for adding MPLS channels to BGP.

There are performance reasons for this, mostly that we don't want to
ping the table service routine with every import.
|
|
By this, the requesting channels do the timers in their own loops,
avoiding unnecessary synchronization when the central timer went off.
This is of course less effective for now, yet it allows to easily
implement selective reloads in future.

This allows for setting default table values at the beginning of config
file before "master4" and "master6" tables are initialized.

In multithreaded environment, we need to pass messages between workers.
This is done by queuing events to their respective queues. The
double-linked list is not really useful for that as it needs locking
everywhere.
This commit rewrites the event subsystem to use a single-linked list
where events are enqueued by a single atomic instruction and the queue
is processed after atomically moving the whole queue aside.

There were more conflicts that I'd like to see, most notably in route
export. If a bisect identifies this commit with something related, it
may be simply true that this commit introduces that bug. Let's hope it
doesn't happen.

For BGP LLGR purposes, there was an API allowing a protocol to directly
modify their stale routes in table before flushing them. This API was
called by the table prune routine which violates the future locking
requirements.
Instead of this, BGP now requests a special route export and reimports
these routes into the table, allowing for asynchronous execution without
locking the table on export.
|
|
Until now, if export table was enabled, Nest was storing exactly the
route before rt_notify() was called on it. This was quite sloppy and
spooky and it also wasn't reflecting the changes BGP does before
sending. And as BGP is storing the routes to be sent anyway, we are
simply keeping the already-sent routes in there to better rule out
unneeded reexports.
Some of the route attributes (IGP metric, preference) make no sense in
BGP, therefore these will be probably replaced by something sensible.
Also the nexthop shown in the short output is the BGP nexthop.

Added an option for export filter to allow for prefiltering based on the
prefix. Routes outside the given prefix are completely ignored. Config
is simple:
export in <net> <filter>;
|
|
|
|
The separate import tables were too memory-greedy, there is no need for
them being stored as full-sized tables.

Changes in internal API:
* Every route attribute must be defined as struct ea_class somewhere.
* Registration of route attributes known at startup must be done by
ea_register_init() from protocol build functions.
* Every attribute has now its symbol registered in a global symbol table
defined as SYM_ATTRIBUTE
* All attribute ID's are dynamically allocated.
* Attribute value custom formatting hook is defined in the ea_class.
* Attribute names are the same for display and filters, always prefixed
by protocol name.
Also added some unit testing code for filters with route attributes.
