2022-05-04Unified attribute and filter typesMaria Matejka
This commit removes the EAF_TYPE_* namespace completely and also for route attributes, filter-based types T_* are used. This simplifies fetching and setting route attributes from filters. Also, there is now union bval which serves as an universal value holder instead of private unions held separately by eattr and filter code.

2018-12-04Terminology cleanup: The import_control hook is now called preexport.Jan Maria Matejka
Once upon a time, far far away, there were the old Bird developers discussing what direction of route flow shall be called import and export. They decided to say "import to protocol" and "export to table" when speaking about a protocol. When speaking about a table, they spoke about "importing to table" and "exporting to protocol". The latter terminology was adopted in configuration, then also the bird CLI in commit ea2ae6dd0 started to use it (in year 2009). Now it's 2018 and the terminology is the latter. Import is from protocol to table, export is from table to protocol. Anyway, there was still an import_control hook which executed right before route export. One thing is funny. There are two commits in April 1999 with just two minutes between them. The older announces the final settlement on config terminology, the newer uses the other definition. Let's see their commit messages as the git-log tool shows them (the newer first): commit 9e0e485e50ea74c4f1c5cb65bdfe6ce819c2cee2 Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz> Date: Mon Apr 5 20:17:59 1999 +0000 Added some new protocol hooks (look at the comments for better explanation): make_tmp_attrs Convert inline attributes to ea_list store_tmp_attrs Convert ea_list to inline attributes import_control Pre-import decisions commit 5056c559c4eb253a4eee10cf35b694faec5265eb Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz> Date: Mon Apr 5 20:15:31 1999 +0000 Changed syntax of attaching filters to protocols to hopefully the final version: EXPORT <filter-spec> for outbound routes (i.e., those announced by BIRD to the rest of the world). IMPORT <filter-spec> for inbound routes (i.e., those imported by BIRD from the rest of the world). where <filter-spec> is one of: ALL pass all routes NONE drop all routes FILTER <name> use named filter FILTER { <filter> } use explicitly defined filter For all protocols, the default is IMPORT ALL, EXPORT NONE. This includes the kernel protocol, so that you need to add EXPORT ALL to get the previous configuration of kernel syncer (as usually, see doc/bird.conf.example for a bird.conf example :)). Let's say RIP to this almost 19-years-old inconsistency. For now, if you import a route, it is always from protocol to table. If you export a route, it is always from table to protocol. And they lived happily ever after.
2018-11-28Nest: Do not hard-reset interface when preferred address is changedOndrej Zajicek (work)
Modify protocols to use preferred address change notification instead on depending on hard-reset of interfaces in that case, and remove hard-reset in that case. This avoids issue when e.g. IPv6 protocol restarts interface when IPv4 preferred address changed (as hard-reset is unavoidable and common for whole iface). The patch also fixes a bug when removing last address does not send preferred address change notification.

2018-06-26Config: Dropping CF_ADDTO.Jan Maria Matejka
2018-05-30Nest: Removing separate tmpa from route propagationJan Maria Matejka
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.
2018-01-09Nest: Allow modification of channels inherited from templatesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Multiple definitions of same channels are forbidden, but inherited channel can be redefined. In such case channel options are merged.

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.
2017-12-07Nest: Maintain separate IPv4, IPv6 and LLv6 preferred addressesOndrej Zajicek (work)

And change default values of specific route options to be consistent with values of default router options.
2017-10-04RAdv: Support for more specific routes (RFC 4191)Michal 'vorner' Vaner
The patch implements Default Router Preferences and More-Specific Routes (RFC 4191) for RAdv protocol, allowing to announce router preference and more specific routes in router advertisements. Routes can be exported to RAdv like to regular routing protocols. Some cleanups, bugfixes and other changes done by Ondrej Zajicek.
2017-09-12Nest: VRF support for neighbor cache and olock codeOndrej Zajicek (work)
Actually much simpler than expected.
2017-09-06Basic VRF supportOndrej Zajicek (work)
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.

2017-08-30RAdv: Configure how long a dead prefix is advertisedMichal 'vorner' Vaner
2017-08-30RAdv: Buffer prefixes awhile after they disappearMichal 'vorner' Vaner
Keep a cache of all the relevant prefixes we send out. When a prefix appears, insert it into the cache. If it dies, keep it there for a while, marked as dead. Send out the dead prefixes with zero lifetime.
2017-08-30RAdv: Extract prefix option preparationMichal 'vorner' Vaner
Put the prefix option preparation into a separate function. We're going to reuse that bit of code.
