2022-06-04Nest: Improve GC strategy for rtablesOndrej Zajicek
Use timer (configurable as 'gc period') to schedule routing table GC/pruning to ensure that prune is done on time but not too often. Randomize GC timers to avoid concentration of GC events from different tables in one loop cycle. Fix a bug that caused minimum inter-GC interval be 5 us instead of 5 s. Make default 'gc period' adaptive based on number of routing tables, from 10 s for small setups to 600 s for large ones. In marge multi-table RS setup, the patch improved time of flushing a downed peer from 20-30 min to <2 min and removed 40s latencies.

2022-05-15BGP: Improve tx performance during feed/flushOndrej Zajicek
The prefix hash table in BGP used the same hash function as the rtable. When a batch of routes are exported during feed/flush to the BGP, they all have similar hash values, so they are all crowded in a few slots in the BGP prefix table (which is much smaller - around the size of the batch - and uses higher bits from hash values), making it much slower due to excessive collisions. Use a different hash function to avoid this. Also, increase the batch size to fill 4k BGP packets and increase minimum BGP bucket and prefix hash sizes to avoid back and forth resizing during flushes. This leads to order of magnitude faster flushes (on my test data).
2022-04-13RIP: fixed the EA_RIP_FROM attributeMaria Matejka
The interface pointer was improperly converted to u32 and back. Fixing this by explicitly allocating an adata structure for it. It's not so memory efficient, we'll optimize this later.

2022-02-06Nest: Implement locking of prefix tries during walksOndrej Zajicek (work)
The prune loop may may rebuild the prefix trie and therefore invalidate walk state for asynchronous walks (used in 'show route in' cmd). Fix it by adding locking that keeps the old trie in memory until current walks are done. In future this could be improved by rebuilding trie walk states (by lookup for last found prefix) after the prefix trie rebuild.
2022-02-06Nest: Implement prefix trie pruningOndrej Zajicek (work)
When rtable is pruned and network fib nodes are removed, we also need to prune prefix trie. Unfortunately, rebuilding prefix trie takes long time (got about 400 ms for 1M networks), so must not be atomic, we have to rebuild a new trie while current one is still active. That may require some considerable amount of temporary memory, so we do that only if we expect significant trie size reduction.
2022-02-06BGP: Implement flowspec validation procedureOndrej Zajicek (work)
Implement flowspec validation procedure as described in RFC 8955 sec. 6 and RFC 9117. The Validation procedure enforces that only routers in the forwarding path for a network can originate flowspec rules for that network. The patch adds new mechanism for tracking inter-table dependencies, which is necessary as the flowspec validation depends on IP routes, and flowspec rules must be revalidated when best IP routes change. The validation procedure is disabled by default and requires that relevant IP table uses trie, as it uses interval queries for subnets.
2022-02-06Nest: Add routing table configuration blocksOndrej Zajicek (work)
Allow to specify sorted flag, trie fla, and min/max settle time. Also do not enable trie by default, it must be explicitly enabled.

2022-02-06Nest: Avoid unnecessary net_format() in 'show route' commandOndrej Zajicek (work)
When output of 'show route' command was generated, the net_format() was called for each network prematurely, even if the result was not needed. Fix the code to call net_format() only when needed. This makes queries that process many networks but show only few (e.g. 'show route where ..', or 'show route count') much faster (like 5x - 10x faster).
2022-02-06Nest: Add trie iteration code to 'show route'Ondrej Zajicek (work)
Add trie iteration code to rt_show_cont() CLI hook and use it to accelerate 'show route in <addr>' commands using interval queries.
2022-02-06Nest: Implement 'show route in <addr>' commandOndrej Zajicek (work)
Implement 'show route in <addr>' command, which shows all routes in networks that are subnets of given network. Currently limited to IP network types.
2022-02-06Nest: Attach prefix trie to rtable for faster LPM and interval queriesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Attach a prefix trie to IP/VPN/ROA tables. Use it for net_route() and net_roa_check(). This leads to 3-5x speedups for IPv4 and 5-10x speedup for IPv6 of these calls. TODO: - Rebuild the trie during rt_prune_table() - Better way to avoid trie_add_prefix() in net_get() for existing tables - Make it configurable (?)

Add operators .min and .max to find minumum or maximum element in sets of types: clist, eclist, lclist. Example usage: bgp_community.min bgp_ext_community.max filter(bgp_large_community, [(as1, as2, *)]).min Signed-off-by: Alexander Zubkov <green@qrator.net>
2021-12-18Nest: Do not ignore secondary flag changes in ifa updatesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Compare all IA_* flags that are set by sysdep iface code. The old code ignores IA_SECONDARY flag when comparing whether iface address updates from kernel changed anything. This is usually not an issue as kernel removes all secondary addresses due to removal of the primary one, but it breaks when sysctl 'promote_secondaries' is enabled and kernel promotes secondary addresses to primary ones. Thanks to 'Alexander' for the bugreport.
2021-11-27Memory statistics split into Effective and OverheadMaria Matejka
This feature is intended mostly for checking that BIRD's allocation strategies don't consume much memory space. There are some cases where withdrawing routes in a specific order lead to memory fragmentation and this output should give the user at least a notion of how much memory is actually used for data storage and how much memory is "just allocated" or used for overhead. Also raising the "system allocator overhead estimation" from 8 to 16 bytes; it is probably even more. I've found 16 as a local minimum in best scenarios among reachable machines. I couldn't find any reasonable method to estimate this value when BIRD starts up. This commit also fixes the inaccurate computation of memory overhead for slabs where the "system allocater overhead estimation" was improperly added to the size of mmap-ed memory.
