When several BGPs requested a BFD session in short time, chances were
that the second BGP would file a request while the pickup routine was
still running and it would get enqueued into the waiting list instead of
being picked up.
Fixed this by enforcing pickup loop restart when new requests got added,
and also by atomically moving the unpicked requests to a temporary list
to announce admin down before actually being added into the wait list.

Now sk_open() requires an explicit IO loop to open the socket in. Also
specific functions for socket RX pause / resume are added to allow for
BGP corking.
And last but not least, socket reloop is now synchronous to resolve
weird cases of the target loop stopping before actually picking up the
relooped socket. Now the caller must ensure that both loops are locked
while relooping, and this way all sockets always have their respective
loop.
|
|
If there are lots of loops in a single thread and only some of the loops
are actually active, the other loops are now kept aside and not checked
until they actually get some timers, events or active sockets.
This should help with extreme loads like 100k tables and protocols.
Also ping and loop pickup mechanism was allowing subtle race
conditions. Now properly handling collisions between loop ping and pickup.

Repeated pipe refeed should not end route refresh as the prune routine
may start pruning otherwise valid routes.
The same applies for BGP repeated route refresh.

Instead of propagating interface updates as they are loaded from kernel,
they are enqueued and all the notifications are called from a
protocol-specific event. This change allows to break the locking loop
between protocols and interfaces.
Anyway, this change is based on v2 branch to keep the changes between v2
and v3 smaller.

Instead of calling custom hooks from object locks, we use standard event
sending mechanism to inform protocols about object lock changes. This is
a backport from version 3 where these events are passed across threads.
This implementation of object locks doesn't use mutexes to lock the
whole data structure. In version 3, this data structure may get accessed
from multiple threads and must be protected by mutex.

Instead of calling custom hooks from object locks, we use standard event
sending mechanism to inform protocols about object lock changes. As
event sending is lockless, the unlocking protocol simply enqueues the
appropriate event to the given loop when the locking is done.

The effective keepalive time now scales relative to the negotiated
hold time, to maintain proportion between the keepalive time and the
hold time. This avoids issues when both keepalive and hold times
were configured, the hold time was negotiated to a smaller value,
but the keepalive time stayed the same.
Add new options 'min hold time' and 'min keepalive time', which reject
session attempts with too small hold time.
Improve validation of config options an their documentation.
Thanks to Alexander Zubkov and Sergei Goriunov for suggestions.

Add BGP channel option 'next hop prefer global' that modifies BGP
recursive next hop resolution to use global next hop IPv6 address instead
of link-local next hop IPv6 address for immediate next hop of received
routes.

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.

This allows for setting default table values at the beginning of config
file before "master4" and "master6" tables are initialized.

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.

Add support for bgp_otc in filters and warning for configuration

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.

Until now, we were marking routes as REF_STALE and REF_DISCARD to
cleanup old routes after route refresh. This needed a synchronous route
table walk at both beginning and the end of route refresh routine,
marking the routes by the flags.
We avoid these walks by using a stale counter. Every route contains:
u8 stale_cycle;
Every import hook contains:
u8 stale_set;
u8 stale_valid;
u8 stale_pruned;
u8 stale_pruning;
In base_state, stale_set == stale_valid == stale_pruned == stale_pruning
and all routes' stale_cycle also have the same value.
The route refresh looks like follows:
+ ----------- + --------- + ----------- + ------------- + ------------ +
| | stale_set | stale_valid | stale_pruning | stale_pruned |
| Base | x | x | x | x |
| Begin | x+1 | x | x | x |
... now routes are being inserted with stale_cycle == (x+1)
| End | x+1 | x+1 | x | x |
... now table pruning routine is scheduled
| Prune begin | x+1 | x+1 | x+1 | x |
... now routes with stale_cycle not between stale_set and stale_valid
are deleted
| Prune end | x+1 | x+1 | x+1 | x+1 |
+ ----------- + --------- + ----------- + ------------- + ------------ +
The pruning routine is asynchronous and may have high latency in
high-load environments. Therefore, multiple route refresh requests may
happen before the pruning routine starts, leading to this situation:
| Prune begin | x+k | x+k | x -> x+k | x |
... or even
| Prune begin | x+k+1 | x+k | x -> x+k | x |
... if the prune event starts while another route refresh is running.
In such a case, the pruning routine still deletes routes not fitting
between stale_set and and stale_valid, effectively pruning the remnants
of all unpruned route refreshes from before:
| Prune end | x+k | x+k | x+k | x+k |
In extremely rare cases, there may happen too many route refreshes
before any route prune routine finishes. If the difference between
stale_valid and stale_pruned becomes more than 128 when requesting for
another route refresh, the routine walks the table synchronously and
resets all the stale values to a base state, while logging a warning.

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.

The separate import tables were too memory-greedy, there is no need for
them being stored as full-sized tables.

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.
