2022-01-08IO: Support nonlocal bind in socket interfaceAlexander Zubkov
Add option to socket interface for nonlocal binding, i.e. binding to an IP address that is not present on interfaces. This behaviour is enabled when SKF_FREEBIND socket flag is set. For Linux systems, it is implemented by IP_FREEBIND socket flag. Minor changes done by commiter.
2021-03-12Rate-limit scheduling of work-eventsOndrej Zajicek (work)
In general, events are code handling some some condition, which is scheduled when such condition happened and executed independently from I/O loop. Work-events are a subgroup of events that are scheduled repeatedly until some (often significant) work is done (e.g. feeding routes to protocol). All scheduled events are executed during each I/O loop iteration. Separate work-events from regular events to a separate queue and rate limit their execution to a fixed number per I/O loop iteration. That should prevent excess latency when many work-events are scheduled at one time (e.g. simultaneous reload of many BGP sessions).
2020-05-01Unix socket: Path length check directly before copying the path.Maria Matejka
This is not needed as the string is always short enough, anyway it may be needed in future and one strlen during BIRD start is cheap enough.
2020-04-09Configuration strings are constant.Maria Matejka
This is merely a const propagation. There was no problem in there.
2020-02-27BGP: Support for MD5SIG together with remote rangeOndrej Zajicek (work)
When dynamic BGP with remote range is configured, MD5SIG needs to use newer socket option (TCP_MD5SIG_EXT) to specify remote addres range for listening socket. Thanks to Adam Kułagowski for the suggestion.
2019-10-04Fixed undefined behavior on signals.Maria Matejka
The C11 specification allows only sig_atomic_t and _Atomic variable access. All other accesses to global variables are undefined behavior. Using int was probably OK on x86 and x86_64; yet there were some reports from other architectures (especially some MIPS) that in rare cases, after issuing SIGHUP, BIRD did strange things.

2019-04-30BGP: Dynamic BGPOndrej Zajicek (work)
Support for dynamically spawning BGP protocols for incoming connections. Use 'neighbor range' to specify range of valid neighbor addresses, then incoming connections from these addresses spawn new BGP instances.
2019-03-22Fixed one warning and one undefined value.Maria Matejka
2019-01-02BGP: Better dispatch of incoming connectionsOndrej Zajicek (work)
Since v2 we have multiple listening BGP sockets, and each BGP protocol has associated one of them. Use listening socket that accepted the incoming connection as a key in the dispatch process so only BGP protocols assocaited with that listening socket can be selected. This is necesary for proper dispatch when VRFs are used.
2018-12-18IO: Workaround for broken FreeBSD behaviorOndrej Zajicek (work)
FreeBSD silently changes TTL to 1 when MSG_DONTROUTE is used, even when it is explicitly set to another value. That breaks TTL security sockets, including BFD which always uses TTL 255. Bad FreeBSD!
2018-11-18Unix: Refactor tracked filesOndrej Zajicek (work)
We need access to resource in order to free it.
2018-09-18No more warnings ...Jan Maria Matejka
no more warnings No more warnings over me And while it is being compiled all the log is black and white Release BIRD now and then let it flee (use the melody of well-known Oh Freedom!)
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).
2018-05-03Better initialization of random generatorOndrej Zajicek (work)
Use full time precision to initialize random generator. The old code was prone to initialize it to the same values in specific circumstances (boot without RTC, multiple VMs starting at once).

2018-01-23IO: Fix socket priorityOndrej Zajicek (work)
On Linux, setting the ToS will also set the priority and the range of accepted values is quite limited (masked by 0x1e). Therefore, 0xc0 is translated to a priority of 0, not something we want, overriding the "7" priority which was set previously explicitely. To avoid that, just move setting priority later in the code. Thanks to Vincent Bernat for the patch.

Date/time output (e.g. in logs, show commands) can use %f to specify subsecond time. By default, millisecond precision is used in output.
2017-12-07Timers: Replace old timers with microsecond timersOndrej Zajicek (work)
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.

2017-09-06Basic 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.

2016-12-07RPKI protocol with one cache server per protocolPavel Tvrdík
The RPKI protocol (RFC 6810) using the RTRLib (http://rpki.realmv6.org/) that is integrated inside the BIRD's code. Implemeted transports are: - unprotected transport over TCP - secure transport over SSHv2 Example configuration of bird.conf: ... roa4 table r4; roa6 table r6; protocol rpki { debug all; # Import both IPv4 and IPv6 ROAs roa4 { table r4; }; roa6 { table r6; }; # Set cache server (validator) address, # overwrite default port 323 remote "rpki-validator.realmv6.org" port 8282; # Overwrite default time intervals retry 10; # Default 600 seconds refresh 60; # Default 3600 seconds expire 600; # Default 7200 seconds } protocol rpki { debug all; # Import only IPv4 routes roa4 { table r4; }; # Set cache server address to localhost, # use default ports tcp => 323 or ssh => 22 remote 127.0.0.1; # Use SSH transport instead of unprotected transport over TCP ssh encryption { bird private key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/id_rsa"; remote public key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/known_hosts"; user "birdgeek"; }; } ...
