2000-01-18Kernel route syncer now supports dynamic reconfiguration. Also it doesn'tMartin Mares
depend on the startup counter hack now and uses a zero-time timer instead to make itself scheduled after normal protocol startup.
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.
1999-02-13When shutting down, remove all routes (except for RTS_INHERIT and RTS_DEVICEMartin Mares
routes) from kernel routing tables unless the "persist" switch is set.
1999-02-05Synced kernel interface to new interface.Martin Mares
1998-12-08Rewritten kernel syncer. Now uses the rta trickery I've introduced yesterdayMartin Mares
and does things "the right way". Few things are still missing (device routes etc.), I'll add them later in the evening.
1998-10-19Basic kernel routing table syncing implemented. Learning of routes installedMartin Mares
by other programs or the kernel itself is not supported yet, but it's not needed for development of other protocols.
1998-10-18Since almost every UNIX system requires different techniques for readingMartin 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 ;-)
