In principle, the channel list is a list of parent struct proto and can
contain general structures of type struct channel, That is useful e.g.
for adding MPLS channels to BGP.

Had to fix route source locking inside BGP export table as we need to
keep the route sources properly allocated until even last BGP pending
update is sent out, therefore the export table printout is accurate.

There were more conflicts that I'd like to see, most notably in route
export. If a bisect identifies this commit with something related, it
may be simply true that this commit introduces that bug. Let's hope it
doesn't happen.

The invalid routes were filtered out before they could ever get
exported, yet some of the routines need them available, e.g. for
display or import reload.
Now the invalid routes are properly exported and dropped in channel
export routines instead.

For BGP LLGR purposes, there was an API allowing a protocol to directly
modify their stale routes in table before flushing them. This API was
called by the table prune routine which violates the future locking
requirements.
Instead of this, BGP now requests a special route export and reimports
these routes into the table, allowing for asynchronous execution without
locking the table on export.

Implement BGP roles as described in RFC 9234. It is a mechanism for
route leak prevention and automatic route filtering based on common BGP
topology relationships. It defines role capability (controlled by 'local
role' option) and OTC route attribute, which is used for automatic route
filtering and leak detection.
Minor changes done by commiter.

Until now, if export table was enabled, Nest was storing exactly the
route before rt_notify() was called on it. This was quite sloppy and
spooky and it also wasn't reflecting the changes BGP does before
sending. And as BGP is storing the routes to be sent anyway, we are
simply keeping the already-sent routes in there to better rule out
unneeded reexports.
Some of the route attributes (IGP metric, preference) make no sense in
BGP, therefore these will be probably replaced by something sensible.
Also the nexthop shown in the short output is the BGP nexthop.

Passing protocol to preexport was in fact a historical relic from the
old times when channels weren't a thing. Refactoring that to match
current extensibility needs.

There were quite a lot of conflicts in flowspec validation code which
ultimately led to some code being a bit rewritten, not only adapted from
this or that branch, yet it is still in a limit of a merge.
|
|
Validation is called internally from route table at the same place where
nexthop resolution is done. Also accounting for rte->sender semantics
change (not a channel but the import hook instead).

For now, all route attributes are stored as eattrs in ea_list. This
should make route manipulation easier and it also allows for a layered
approach of route attributes where updates from filters will be stored
as an overlay over the previous version.

validation result out.
As there is either a nexthop or another destination specification
(or othing in case of ROAs and Flowspec), it may be merged together.
This code is somehow quirky and should be replaced in future by better
implementation of nexthop.
Also flowspec validation result has its own attribute now as it doesn't
have anything to do with route nexthop.

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).

Changes in internal API:
* Every route attribute must be defined as struct ea_class somewhere.
* Registration of route attributes known at startup must be done by
ea_register_init() from protocol build functions.
* Every attribute has now its symbol registered in a global symbol table
defined as SYM_ATTRIBUTE
* All attribute ID's are dynamically allocated.
* Attribute value custom formatting hook is defined in the ea_class.
* Attribute names are the same for display and filters, always prefixed
by protocol name.
Also added some unit testing code for filters with route attributes.
