Also all loops have their basic resource pool for allocations which are
auto-freed when the loop is stopping.
|
|
|
|
Lots of time was spent locking when accessing route attribute cache.
This overhead should be now reduced to a minimum.
|
|
|
|
This basically means that:
* there are some more levels of indirection and asynchronicity, mostly
in cleanup procedures, requiring correct lock ordering
* all the internal table operations (prune, next hop update) are done
without blocking the other parts of BIRD
* the protocols may get their own loops very soon

To access route attribute cache from multiple threads at once, we have
to lock the cache on writing. The route attributes data structures are
safe to read unless somebody tries to tamper with the cache itself.

This commit prevents use-after-free of routes belonging to protocols
which have been already destroyed, delaying also all the protocols'
shutdown until all of their routes have been finally propagated through
all the pipes down to the appropriate exports.
The use-after-free was somehow hypothetic yet theoretically possible in
rare conditions, when one BGP protocol authors a lot of routes and the
user deletes that protocol by reconfiguring in the same time as next hop
update is requested, causing rte_better() to be called on a
not-yet-pruned network prefix while the owner protocol has been already
freed.
In parallel execution environments, this would happen an inter-thread
use-after-free, causing possible heisenbugs or other nasty problems.

The corked procedure gets a callback when uncorked. Supported by table
maintenance routines and also BGP.
|
|
The former rt_event is dropped in favour of separate table events.
This allows for selective corking of NHU and prune.
|
|
There is a simple universal IO loop, taking care of events, timers and
sockets. Primarily, one instance of a protocol should use exactly one IO
loop to do all its work, as is now done in BFD.
Contrary to previous versions, the loop is now launched and cleaned by
the nest/proto.c code, allowing for a protocol to just request its own
loop by setting the loop's lock order in config higher than the_bird.
It is not supported nor checked if any protocol changed the requested
lock order in reconfigure. No protocol should do it at all.

|
To allow for multithreaded execution, we need to break the import-export
chain and buffer the exports before actually processing them.
|
|
* internal tables are now more standalone, having their own import and
export hooks
* route refresh/reload uses stale counter instead of stale flag,
allowing to drop walking the table at the beginning
* route modify (by BGP LLGR) is now done by a special refeed hook,
reimporting the modified routes directly without filters
|
|
Channels have now included rt_import_req and rt_export_req to hook into
the table instead of just one list node. This will (in future) allow for:
* channel import and export bound to different tables
* more efficient pipe code (dropping most of the channel code)
* conversion of 'show route' to a special kind of export
* temporary static routes from CLI
The import / export states are also updated to the new algorithms.

table structures directly

Routes are now allocated only when they are just to be inserted to the
table. Updating a route needs a locally allocated route structure.
Ownership of the attributes is also now not transfered from protocols to
tables and vice versa but just borrowed which should be easier to handle
in a multithreaded environment.

Kernel route sync is done by other ways now and this code is not used
currently.

It is an auxiliary key in the routing table, not a route attribute.
|
|
|
|
This is needed to provide the protocols the full old route after filters
when export table is enabled.
|
|
This fixes an internal table cleanup bug introduced
in ff397df7edcbe7a8abca5b419729b9c64c063847.
|
|
This also fixes memory leaks from import/export tables being never
cleaned up and freed.
|
|
If there are roa_check() calls in channel filters, then the channel
subscribes to ROA table notifications, which are sent when ROA tables
are updated (subject to settle time) and trigger channel reload or
refeed.

Thanks to Robert Scheck <bird@robert-scheck.de> who reported it
and Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk> who suggested this patch.

The old code stored route verdicts and temporary routes directly in
rtable. The new code do not store received routes (it immediately
compares them with exported routes and resolves conflicts) and uses
internal bitmap to keep track of which routes were received and which
needs to be reinstalled.
By not putting 'invalid' temporary routes to rtable, we keep rtable
in consistent state, therefore scan no longer needs to be atomic
operation and could be splitted to multiple events.
|
|
This info is now stored in an internal bmap. Unfortunately, net.flags
is still needed for temporary kernel data.
|
|
The same information is stored in export_map of kernel protocol.
|
|
Use a hierarchical bitmap in a routing table to assign ids to routes, and
then use bitmaps (indexed by route id) in channels to keep track whether
routes were exported. This avoids unreliable and inefficient re-evaluation
of filters for old routes in order to determine whether they were exported.
|
|
|
|
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'.

Nest requires that nexthops are sorted, the kernel protocol have to
ensure that for alien routes.

The temporary atttributes are no longer removed by ea_do_prune(), but
they are undefined by store_tmp_attrs() protocol hooks. This fixes
several bugs where temporary attributes were removed when they should
not or not removed when they should be. The flag EAF_TEMP is no longer
needed and was removed.
Update all protocol make_tmp_attrs() / store_tmp_attrs() hooks to use
helper functions and to handle unset attributes properly.
Also fix some related bugs like improper handling of empty eattr list.
|
|
Keep track of whether OSPF tmpattrs are actually defined for given route
(using flags in rte->pflags). That makes them behave more like real
eattrs so a protocol can define just a subset of them or they can be
undefined by filters.
Do not set ospf_metric2 for other than type 2 external OSPF routes and do
not set ospf_tag for non-external OSPF routes. That also fixes a bug
where internal/inter-area route propagated from one OSPF instance to
another is initiated with infinity ospf_metric2.
Thanks to Yaroslav Dronskii for the bugreport.
