2021-11-22Route export is now asynchronous.Maria Matejka
To allow for multithreaded execution, we need to break the import-export chain and buffer the exports before actually processing them.
2021-11-22Better profylaction recursive route loopsMaria Matejka
In some specific configurations, it was possible to send BIRD into an infinite loop of recursive next hop resolution. This was caused by route priority inversion. To prevent priority inversions affecting other next hops, we simply refuse to resolve any next hop if the best route for the matching prefix is recursive or any other route with the same preference is recursive. Next hop resolution doesn't change route priority, therefore it is perfectly OK to resolve BGP next hops e.g. by an OSPF route, yet if the same (or covering) prefix is also announced by iBGP, by retraction of the OSPF route we would get a possible priority inversion.
2021-11-22Table cork: Stop creating updates when there are too many pending.Maria Matejka
The corked procedure gets a callback when uncorked. Supported by table maintenance routines and also BGP.
2021-11-22Special table hooks rectified.Maria Matejka
* 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
2021-11-22Split route table event into separate eventsMaria Matejka
The former rt_event is dropped in favour of separate table events. This allows for selective corking of NHU and prune.
2021-11-22Table import and export are now explicit hooks.Maria Matejka
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.

2021-11-09Route export: rejected by filter bitmapMaria Matejka
If a route has been rejected by filter, store that information to avoid repeated export filter runs on rejected routes.

2021-11-09Split route data structure to storage (ro) / manipulation (rw) structures.Maria Matejka
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.

2021-10-13Route: moved rte_src pointer from rta to rteMaria Matejka
It is an auxiliary key in the routing table, not a route attribute.

2021-10-13Dropping the RTS_DUMMY temporary route storage.Maria Matejka
Kernel route sync is done by other ways now and this code is not used currently.

2021-10-13Export table: Delay freeing of old stored route.Maria Matejka
This is needed to provide the protocols the full old route after filters when export table is enabled.

2021-10-13IGP metric getter refactoring to protocol callbackMaria Matejka
Direct protocol hooks for IGP metric inside nest/rt-table.c make the protocol API unnecessarily complex. Instead, we use a proper callback.

Remove assumption that main channel is the only channel.

Remove assumption that main channel is the only channel.
2021-06-14Nest: Fix export of tmpattrs through pipesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Pipes copy the original rte with old values, so they require rte to be exported with stored tmpattrs. Other protocols access stored attributes using eattr list, so they require rte to be exported with expanded tmpattrs. This is temporary hack, we plan to remove whoe tmpattr mechanism. Thanks to Paul Donohue for the bugreport.
2021-06-14Revert "Nest: Fix export of tmpattrs through pipes"Ondrej Zajicek (work)
This reverts commit f8e273b5e7a3c721f4a30cf27a0b4fe54602e83f.
2021-06-14Nest: Fix export of tmpattrs through pipesOndrej Zajicek (work)
In most cases of export there is no need to store back temporary attributes to rte, as receivers (protocols) access eattr list anyway. But pipe copies the original rte with old values, so we should store tmpattrs also during export. Thanks to Paul Donohue for the bugreport.
2021-06-09Nest: Allow both 'password' and 'key' keywords for authentication keysOndrej Zajicek (work)
2021-06-06Nest: Fix password list parsing codeOndrej Zajicek (work)
One of previous patches broke password list parsing code, fix that.
2021-06-06Nest: Allow MAC algorithms to specify min/max key lengthToke Høiland-Jørgensen
Add min/max key length fields to the MAC algorithm description and validate configured keys before they are used.
2021-06-06Nest: Allow specifying security keys as hex bytes as well as stringsToke Høiland-Jørgensen
Add support for specifying a password in hexadecimal format, The result is the same whether a password is specified as a quoted string or a hex-encoded byte string, this just makes it more convenient to input high-entropy byte strings as MAC keys.
2021-06-06Lib: Add Blake2s and Blake2b hash functionsToke Høiland-Jørgensen
The Babel MAC authentication RFC recommends implementing Blake2s as one of the supported algorithms. In order to achieve do this, add the blake2b and blake2s hash functions for MAC authentication. The hashing function implementations are the reference implementations from blake2.net. The Blake2 algorithms allow specifying an arbitrary output size, and the Babel MAC spec says to implement Blake2s with 128-bit output. To satisfy this, we add two different variants of each of the algorithms, one using the default size (256 bits for Blake2s, 512 bits for Blake2b), and one using half the default output size. Update to BIRD coding style done by committer.
2021-04-19Internal route tables have a reduced cleanup routineMaria Matejka
This fixes an internal table cleanup bug introduced in ff397df7edcbe7a8abca5b419729b9c64c063847.

This saves some bytes of memory for complex ea's.
2021-03-30Routing table is now a resource allocated from its own poolMaria Matejka
This also fixes memory leaks from import/export tables being never cleaned up and freed.

2021-03-16Pipe: Propagate debug flags from protocol to channelsOndrej Zajicek (work)
Pipe channels are kind-of implicit, so setting protocol debug flags should also set pipe debug flags.
2021-03-12Rate-limit scheduling of work-eventsOndrej Zajicek (work)
In general, events are code handling some some condition, which is scheduled when such condition happened and executed independently from I/O loop. Work-events are a subgroup of events that are scheduled repeatedly until some (often significant) work is done (e.g. feeding routes to protocol). All scheduled events are executed during each I/O loop iteration. Separate work-events from regular events to a separate queue and rate limit their execution to a fixed number per I/O loop iteration. That should prevent excess latency when many work-events are scheduled at one time (e.g. simultaneous reload of many BGP sessions).
