The patch implements long-lived graceful restart for BGP, namely
draft-uttaro-idr-bgp-persistence-03.
|
|
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also removed during the reconfiguration), the route is not withdrawn.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.

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().
|

This supersedes the EAP_* constants.

Multiple definitions of same channels are forbidden, but inherited
channel can be redefined. In such case channel options are merged.

Date/time output (e.g. in logs, show commands) can use %f to specify
subsecond time. By default, millisecond precision is used in output.

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.

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.

Integrated and extensible BGP with generalized AFI handling,
support for IPv4+IPv6 AFI and unicast+multicast SAFI.

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.

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.

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.
|
|
|
|
The patch adds support for channels, structures connecting protocols and
tables and handling most interactions between them. The documentation is
missing yet.
|
|
Kernel option 'merge paths' allows to merge routes exported to kernel
protocol (currently BGP and static routes) to multipath routes.
|
|
|
|
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.

Now it compiles and mostly works.

|
They have different behavior w.r.t. filtered routes that are kept.
|
|
|
|
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.

Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for many suggestions.

Based on the patch from Alexander V. Chernikov.
Extended to support almost all protocols.
Uses 'protocol bgp NAME from TEMPLATE { ... }' syntax.

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.
