2018-05-30Nest: Removing separate tmpa from route propagationJan Maria Matejka
This is a fundamental change of an original (1999) concept of route processing inside BIRD. During import/export, there was a temporary ea_list created which was to be used instead of the another one inside the route itself. This led to some confusion, quirks, and strange filter code that handled extended route attributes. Dropping it now. The protocol interface has changed in an uniform way -- the `struct ea_list *attrs` argument has been removed from store_tmp_attrs(), import_control(), rt_notify() and get_route_info().
2018-05-29Protocol: Introducing an enum protocol_classJan Maria Matejka
This supersedes the EAP_* constants.

2017-12-07Timers: Parse and format functions for microsecond timesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Date/time output (e.g. in logs, show commands) can use %f to specify subsecond time. By default, millisecond precision is used in output.
2017-09-19BGP: Shutdown communication (RFC 8203)Ondrej Zajicek (work)
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.

2017-09-06Basic VRF supportOndrej Zajicek (work)
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.
2017-05-15Nest: split route show into separate fileJan Moskyto Matejka
2017-04-25Nest: Update of show route cmdOndrej Zajicek (work)
Some code cleanup, multiple bugfixes, allows to specify also channel for 'show route export'. Interesting how such apparenty simple thing like show route cmd has plenty of ugly corner cases.

2016-12-07BGP redesignOndrej Zajicek (work)
Integrated and extensible BGP with generalized AFI handling, support for IPv4+IPv6 AFI and unicast+multicast SAFI.
2016-12-07RPKI protocol with one cache server per protocolPavel Tvrdík
The RPKI protocol (RFC 6810) using the RTRLib (http://rpki.realmv6.org/) that is integrated inside the BIRD's code. Implemeted transports are: - unprotected transport over TCP - secure transport over SSHv2 Example configuration of bird.conf: ... roa4 table r4; roa6 table r6; protocol rpki { debug all; # Import both IPv4 and IPv6 ROAs roa4 { table r4; }; roa6 { table r6; }; # Set cache server (validator) address, # overwrite default port 323 remote "rpki-validator.realmv6.org" port 8282; # Overwrite default time intervals retry 10; # Default 600 seconds refresh 60; # Default 3600 seconds expire 600; # Default 7200 seconds } protocol rpki { debug all; # Import only IPv4 routes roa4 { table r4; }; # Set cache server address to localhost, # use default ports tcp => 323 or ssh => 22 remote 127.0.0.1; # Use SSH transport instead of unprotected transport over TCP ssh encryption { bird private key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/id_rsa"; remote public key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/known_hosts"; user "birdgeek"; }; } ...

Also removed the lib-dir merging with sysdep. Updated #include's accordingly. Fixed make doc on recent Debian together with moving generated doc into objdir. Moved Makefile.in into root dir Retired all.o and birdlib.a Linking the final binaries directly from all the .o files.
2016-04-28Add the Babel routing protocol (RFC 6126)Ondrej Zajicek (work)
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.
2016-04-08Route update: move table lookup from protocols into rte_update2().Jan Moskyto Matejka
Many protocols do almost the same when creating a rte_update request before calling rte_update2(). This commit should simplify the protocol side of the route-creation routine.
2016-04-07Channelize: rt_notify arg conversion table -> channelJan Moskyto Matejka
2016-02-01Channels - explicit links between protocols and tablesOndrej Zajicek (work)
The patch adds support for channels, structures connecting protocols and tables and handling most interactions between them. The documentation is missing yet.
2015-06-08BGP multipath supportOndrej Zajicek
Kernel option 'merge paths' allows to merge routes exported to kernel protocol (currently BGP and static routes) to multipath routes.

2013-09-16BFD work in progress.Ondrej Zajicek
Now it compiles and mostly works.
2013-01-10Separate import and receive limits.Ondrej Zajicek
They have different behavior w.r.t. filtered routes that are kept.
2012-11-15Changes 'rejected' to 'filtered' in one of the last patches.Ondrej Zajicek
2012-11-10Allows rejected routes to be kept and examined.Ondrej Zajicek
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'.
2012-08-14Implements ADD-PATH extension for BGP.Ondrej Zajicek
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.

2012-03-28Fixes responsiveness for protocol shutdown.Ondrej Zajicek
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.
2012-03-15Better support for multitable protocols.Ondrej Zajicek
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.

2011-03-13Implements Router Advertisement protocol.Ondrej Zajicek
2010-07-05Implements hostcache and recursive next hops.Ondrej Zajicek
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.
2010-04-07Implements BGP 'show protocols' info details.Ondrej Zajicek
2010-02-26Many changes in (mainly) kernel syncers.Ondrej Zajicek
- 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
