This is a fundamental change of an original (1999) concept of route
processing inside BIRD. During import/export, there was a temporary
ea_list created which was to be used instead of the another one inside
the route itself.
This led to some confusion, quirks, and strange filter code that handled
extended route attributes. Dropping it now.
The protocol interface has changed in an uniform way -- the
`struct ea_list *attrs` argument has been removed from store_tmp_attrs(),
import_control(), rt_notify() and get_route_info().

This supersedes the EAP_* constants.
|
|
For IPv4 with extended next hop, we use MP-BGP format and therefore no
independent NEXT_HOP attribute.
Thanks to Arvin Gan for the bugreport.

The option allows to specify that some cease subcodes should
disable the protocol when received.

To comply with RFC 8212 requirements.

Multiple definitions of same channels are forbidden, but inherited
channel can be redefined. In such case channel options are merged.

Should use remote value, not local value.

ECMP is not enabled on BSD, where it is not supported by BIRD.

The old timer interface is still kept, but implemented by new timers. The
plan is to switch from the old inteface to the new interface, then clean
it up.
|
|
Also redesign preferred address selection and update protocols to use
appropriate preferred address.
Based on a previous work by Jan Maria Matejka.

The patch implements BGP Administrative Shutdown Communication (RFC 8203)
allowing BGP operators to pass messages related to BGP session
administrative shutdown/restart. It handles both transmit and receive of
shutdown messages. Messages are logged and may be displayed by show
protocol all command.
Thanks to Job Snijders for the basic patch.

Actually much simpler than expected.

Add basic VRF (virtual routing and forwarding) support. Protocols can be
associated with VRFs, such protocols will be restricted to interfaces
assigned to the VRF (as reported by Linux kernel) and will use sockets
bound to the VRF. E.g., different multihop BGP instances can use diffent
kernel routing tables to handle BGP TCP connections.
The VRF support is preliminary, currently there are several limitations:
- Recent Linux kernels (4.11) do not handle correctly sockets bound
to interaces that are part of VRF, so most protocols other than multihop
BGP do not work. This will be fixed by future kernel versions.
- Neighbor cache ignores VRFs. Breaks config with the same prefix on
local interfaces in different VRFs. Not much problem as single hop
protocols do not work anyways.
- Olock code ignores VRFs. Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the
same IP address in different VRFs.
- Incoming BGP connections are not dispatched according to VRFs.
Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the same IP address in
different VRFs. Perhaps we would need some kernel API to read VRF of
incoming connection? Or probably use multiple listening sockets in
int-new branch.
- We should handle master VRF interface up/down events and perhaps
disable associated protocols when VRF goes down. Or at least disable
associated interfaces.
- Also we should check if the master iface is really VRF iface and
not some other kind of master iface.
- BFD session request dispatch should be aware of VRFs.
- Perhaps kernel protocol should read default kernel table ID from VRF
iface so it is not necessary to configure it.
- Perhaps we should have per-VRF default table.

Which, in contrast to SAFI 128, does not use MPLS labels.

When recursive routes with hybrid next hops (e.g. IPv6 route with IPv4 next
hop) are allowed, we need both IPv4 and IPv6 IGP tables.
|

|

Covers IPv4/VPNv4 routes with IPv6 next hop (RFC 5549), IPv6 routes with
IPv4 next hop (RFC 4798) and VPNv6 routes with IPv4 next hop (RFC 4659).
Unfortunately it also makes next hop hooks more messy.
Each BGP channel now could have two IGP tables, one for IPv4 next hops,
the other for IPv6 next hops.

|
|
Basic support for SAFI 4 and 128 (MPLS labeled IP and VPN) for IPv4 and
IPv6. Should work for route reflector, but does not properly handle
originating routes with next hop self.
Based on patches from Jan Matejka.

This may be useful if multple interfaces share the same network range.
Thanks to Fritz Grimpen for the original patch.

When a BGP session with ADD_PATH is restarted and the neighbor do not
announce ADD_PATH capability during reconnect, the accept_ra_types is
still set to RA_ANY.
Thanks to Lennert Buytenhek for the bugreport

Adds option 'allow bgp_local_pref' to override the usual restriction of
LOCAL_PREF on eBGP sessions.
