2018-07-28BSD: Use MSG_DONTROUTE for unicast packets on FreeBSDOndrej Zajicek (work)
BSD systems cannot use SO_DONTROUTE, because it does not work properly with multicast packets (perhaps it tries to find iface based on multicast group address). But we can use MSG_DONTROUTE sendmsg() flag for unicast packets. Works on FreeBSD, is ignored on OpenBSD and is broken on NetBSD (i guess due to integrated routing table and ARP table).
2018-02-13Add support for source-specific IPv6 routes to BIRD coreOndrej Zajicek (work)
This patch adds support for source-specific IPv6 routes to BIRD core. This is based on Dean Luga's original patch, with the review comments addressed. SADR support is added to network address parsing in confbase.Y and to the kernel protocol on Linux. Currently there is no way to mix source-specific and non-source-specific routes (i.e., SADR tables cannot be connected to non-SADR tables). Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the original patch. Minor changes by Ondrej Santiago Zajicek.
2016-12-22Netlink: MPLS routes in kernelJan Moskyto Matejka
Anyway, Bird is now capable to insert both MPLS routes and MPLS encap routes into kernel. It was (among others) needed to define platform-specific AF_MPLS to 28 as this constant has been assigned in the linux kernel. No support for BSD now, it may be added in the future.
2016-05-10Build system reworked to one global Makefile with includes and no nestingJan Moskyto Matejka
Also removed the lib-dir merging with sysdep. Updated #include's accordingly. Fixed make doc on recent Debian together with moving generated doc into objdir. Moved Makefile.in into root dir Retired all.o and birdlib.a Linking the final binaries directly from all the .o files.

2015-04-25KRT: Fixes learning of preferred kernel routes.Ondrej Zajicek
When a new route was imported from kernel and chosen as preferred, then the old best route was propagated as a withdraw to the kernel protocol. Under some circumstances such withdraw propagated to the BSD kernel could remove the new alien route and thus reverting the import.
2014-02-06Many changes in I/O and OSPF sockets and packet handling.Ondrej Zajicek
I/O: - BSD: specify src addr on IP sockets by IP_HDRINCL - BSD: specify src addr on UDP sockets by IP_SENDSRCADDR - Linux: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IP_PKTINFO - IPv6: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IPV6_PKTINFO - Alternative SKF_BIND flag for binding to IP address - Allows IP/UDP sockets without tx_hook, on these sockets a packet is discarded when TX queue is full - Use consistently SOL_ for socket layer values. OSPF: - Packet src addr is always explicitly set - Support for secondary addresses in BSD - Dynamic RX/TX buffers - Fixes some minor buffer overruns - Interface option 'tx length' - Names for vlink pseudoifaces (vlinkX) - Vlinks use separate socket for TX - Vlinks do not use fixed associated iface - Fixes TTL for direct unicast packets - Fixes DONTROUTE for OSPF sockets - Use ifa->ifname instead of ifa->iface->name
2013-11-22Fixes problem with RIP on multiple ifaces on BSD.Ondrej Zajicek
RIP sockets for multiple ifaces collided, because we cannot bind to a specific iface on BSD. Workarounded by SO_REUSEPORT. Thanks to Eugene M. Zheganin for the bugreport.
2013-07-07Implements multiple routing table support for FreeBSD and OpenBSD.Ondrej Zajicek
Inspired by the patch from Alexander V. Chernikov.
2012-05-04Cleanup in sysdep KRT code, part 4.Ondrej Zajicek
Adding some files that was accidentally removed (instead of moved) in cleanup part 2.
2012-04-30Cleanup in sysdep KRT code, part 2.Ondrej Zajicek
Remove support for historic Linux kernels, merge krt-iface, krt-set and krt-scan stub headers.
2011-05-10Allows run with restricted privileges.Ondrej Zajicek
Adds option -u and -g to specify user and group. When different user (than root) is specified, linux capabilities CAP_NET_* are kept.
2010-03-26Disable multiple OSPF pseudointerfaces on BSD.Ondrej Zajicek
2010-02-26Many changes in (mainly) kernel syncers.Ondrej Zajicek
- BSD kernel syncer is now self-conscious and can learn alien routes - important bugfix in BSD kernel syncer (crash after protocol restart) - many minor changes and bugfixes in kernel syncers and neighbor cache - direct protocol does not generate host and link local routes - min_scope check is removed, all routes have SCOPE_UNIVERSE by default - also fixes some remaining compiler warnings
2004-06-04typo in READMEOndrej Filip
2004-06-03CONFIG_SKIP_MC_BIND added.Ondrej Filip
BSD hates it, Linux needs it.
2004-06-01#ifdef CONFIG_UNIX_DONTROUTE added.Ondrej Filip
2004-05-31*BSD port added. (Tested on FreeBSD and NetBSD)Ondrej Filip
1999-12-16Tried to clean up multicast handling. Now we don't try to guessMartin Mares
multicast abilities depending on definedness of symbols and use hard-wired system-dependent configuration defines instead. Please test whereever you can.
1999-08-03Basic support for IPv6. The system-dependent part doesn't work yet,Martin Mares
but the core routines are there and seem to be working. o lib/ipv6.[ch] written o Lexical analyser recognizes IPv6 addresses and when in IPv6 mode, treats pure IPv4 addresses as router IDs. o Router ID must be configured manually on IPv6 systems. o Added SCOPE_ORGANIZATION for org-scoped IPv6 multicasts. o Fixed few places where ipa_(hton|ntoh) was called as a function returning converted address.
1999-08-03Kernel route syncer supports multiple tables.Martin Mares
The changes are just too extensive for lazy me to list them there, but see the comment at the top of sysdep/unix/krt.c. The code got a bit more ifdeffy than I'd like, though. Also fixed a bunch of FIXME's and added a couple of others. :)
1999-05-21Added CONFIG_MULTIPLE_TABLES whereever appropriate.Martin Mares
1999-04-12Removed TOS support. This simplifies many things a lot.Martin Mares
1999-04-03Defined CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS whenever the kernel scanner is ableMartin Mares
to distinguish between our own routes and alien ones.
1999-03-27Cleaned up system configuration files -- removed few obsolete parameters,Martin Mares
documented the remaining ones (sysdep/cf/README). Available configurations: o linux-20: Old Linux interface via /proc/net/route (selected by default on pre-2.1 kernels). o linux-21: Old Linux interface, but device routes handled by the kernel (selected by default for 2.1 and newer kernels). o linux-22: Linux with Netlink (I play with it a lot yet, so it isn't a default). o linux-ipv6: Prototype config for IPv6 on Linux. Not functional yet.
1999-03-03Rewrote the kernel syncer. The old layering was horrible.Martin Mares
The new kernel syncer is cleanly split between generic UNIX module and OS dependent submodules: - krt.c (the generic part) - krt-iface (low-level functions for interface handling) - krt-scan (low-level functions for routing table scanning) - krt-set (low-level functions for setting of kernel routes) krt-set and krt-iface are common for all BSD-like Unices, krt-scan is heavily system dependent (most Unices require /dev/kmem parsing, Linux uses /proc), Netlink substitues all three modules. We expect each UNIX port supports kernel routing table scanning, kernel interface table scanning, kernel route manipulation and possibly also asynchronous event notifications (new route, interface state change; not implemented yet) and build the KRT protocol on the top of these primitive operations.
1999-03-01Added skeletal version of Linux netlink interface. It doesn't work yet,Martin Mares
but the framework is there and I'll try finish it soon.
1999-01-10New makefiles. Includes support for out-of-source-tree builds.Martin Mares
1998-05-26Added CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES (automatic device route creation) andMartin Mares
CONFIG_ALL_MULTICAST (all interfaces capable of multicasting, not depending on IFF_MULTICAST flag).
1998-05-15The library is now glued together from generic and OS-dependent partsMartin Mares
by the `mergedirs' script. Few more IP address manipulation functions and some fixes.
1998-04-22First look at data structures. More to come tomorrow...Martin Mares
