Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2012-04-30	Cleanup in sysdep KRT code, part 2.	Ondrej Zajicek
	Remove support for historic Linux kernels, merge krt-iface, krt-set and krt-scan stub headers.
2010-07-05	Implements hostcache and recursive next hops.	Ondrej Zajicek
	Hostcache is a structure for monitoring changes in a routing table that is used for routes with dynamic/recursive next hops. This is needed for proper iBGP next hop handling.
2009-09-30	Fixes one previous commit.	Ondrej Zajicek

2009-09-24	Do not allow gateway routes with NULL iface.	Ondrej Zajicek

2000-06-01	Updated for new scope handling.	Martin Mares
	Also, provide proper address scopes in struct ifa.
2000-03-31	Include "lib/string.h" instead of <string.h>. It should give us bzero()	Martin Mares
	and other non-portable functions on all systems.
2000-03-12	Cleaned up debugging in kernel syncer. Netlink has still LOCAL_DEBUG	Martin Mares
	turned on, but after some testing I'll gag it.
1999-12-16	Minor cleanups.	Martin Mares

1999-11-04	Renamed attr->attrs to attr->eattrs.	Martin Mares

1999-08-03	Kernel 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. :)
1999-05-17	Kill remaining master_table relics in KRT code.	Martin Mares
	Make all protocols pass routing table to rte_update and rte_discard.
1999-04-12	Removed TOS support. This simplifies many things a lot.	Martin Mares

1999-04-03	More changes to the kernel syncer.	Martin Mares
	o Now compatible with filtering. o Learning of kernel routes supported only on CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS systems (on the others it's impossible to get it semantically correct). o Learning now stores all of its routes in a separate fib and selects the ones the kernel really uses for forwarding packets. o Better treatment of CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES ports. o Lots of internal changes.
1999-03-04	KRT: Implemented asynchronous route / interface state notifications	Martin Mares
	(via Netlink). Tweaked kernel synchronization rules a bit. Discovered locking bug in kernel Netlink :-) Future plans: Hunt all the bugs and solve all the FIXME's.
1999-03-04	Converted some mb_alloc/bzero pairs to mb_allocz.	Martin Mares

1999-03-03	Rewrote 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.
1999-02-13	Squashed one bug in timing of route scans.	Martin Mares

1999-02-05	Synced Linux sysdeps to new interface.	Martin Mares

1998-12-20	die() -> bug() where appropriate.	Martin Mares

1998-12-08	Hopefully finished kernel syncer (krt) rewrite:	Martin Mares
	o Interface syncing is now a part of krt and it can have configurable parameters. Actually, the only one is scan rate now :) o Kernel routing table syncing is now synchronized with interface syncing (we need the most recent version of the interface list to prevent lots of routes to non-existent destinations from appearing). Instead of its own timer, we just check if it's route scan time after each iface list scan. o Syncing of device routes implemented. o CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES should control syncing of automatic device routes. o Rewrote krt_remove_route() to really remove routes :) o Better diagnostics. o Fixed a couple of bugs.
1998-12-08	Rewritten kernel syncer. Now uses the rta trickery I've introduced yesterday	Martin Mares
	and does things "the right way". Few things are still missing (device routes etc.), I'll add them later in the evening.
1998-12-07	Comparison of kernel reject routes fixed.	Martin Mares

1998-12-06	Kernel syncer is now configurable. It will probably need some more	Martin Mares
	options, but at least basic tuning is possible now.
1998-10-20	Learn static device routes from the kernel (temporary until we can make	Martin Mares
	such things configurable).
1998-10-19	Basic kernel routing table syncing implemented. Learning of routes installed	Martin Mares
	by other programs or the kernel itself is not supported yet, but it's not needed for development of other protocols.
1998-10-18	We parse /proc/net/route and flag RT entries according to it. More to come	Martin Mares
	today in the morning...
1998-10-18	Since almost every UNIX system requires different techniques for reading	Martin Mares
	the kernel routing table as opposed to modifying it which is approximately the same on non-netlink systems, I've split the kernel routing table routines to read and write parts. To be implemented later ;-)
