Changes in internal API:
* Every route attribute must be defined as struct ea_class somewhere.
* Registration of route attributes known at startup must be done by
ea_register_init() from protocol build functions.
* Every attribute has now its symbol registered in a global symbol table
defined as SYM_ATTRIBUTE
* All attribute ID's are dynamically allocated.
* Attribute value custom formatting hook is defined in the ea_class.
* Attribute names are the same for display and filters, always prefixed
by protocol name.
Also added some unit testing code for filters with route attributes.

Routes are now allocated only when they are just to be inserted to the
table. Updating a route needs a locally allocated route structure.
Ownership of the attributes is also now not transfered from protocols to
tables and vice versa but just borrowed which should be easier to handle
in a multithreaded environment.

pflags

This also fixes memory leaks from import/export tables being never
cleaned up and freed.

change anything
|
|
The old code stored route verdicts and temporary routes directly in
rtable. The new code do not store received routes (it immediately
compares them with exported routes and resolves conflicts) and uses
internal bitmap to keep track of which routes were received and which
needs to be reinstalled.
By not putting 'invalid' temporary routes to rtable, we keep rtable
in consistent state, therefore scan no longer needs to be atomic
operation and could be splitted to multiple events.
|
|
This info is now stored in an internal bmap. Unfortunately, net.flags
is still needed for temporary kernel data.
|
|
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.

Also redesign preferred address selection and update protocols to use
appropriate preferred address.
Based on a previous work by Jan Maria 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.

The patch adds support for channels, structures connecting protocols and
tables and handling most interactions between them. The documentation is
missing yet.
|
|
Contains some patches from Jan Moskyto Matejka

If an interface address notification is received during device protocol
shutdown/restart, BIRD crashed.
Thanks to Wei Huang for the bugreport.

Since 2.6.19, the netlink API defines RTA_TABLE routing attribute to
allow 32-bit routing table IDs. Using this attribute to index routing
tables at Linux, instead of 8-bit rtm_table field.
|
|
Kernel option 'merge paths' allows to merge routes exported to kernel
protocol (currently BGP and static routes) to multipath routes.
|
|
Linux kernel route metrics (RTA_METRICS netlink route attribute) are
represented and accessible as new route attributes:
krt_mtu, krt_window, krt_rtt, krt_rttvar, krt_sstresh, krt_cwnd, krt_advmss,
krt_reordering, krt_hoplimit, krt_initcwnd, krt_rto_min, krt_initrwnd,
krt_quickack, krt_lock_mtu, krt_lock_window, krt_lock_rtt, krt_lock_rttvar,
krt_lock_sstresh, krt_lock_cwnd, krt_lock_advmss, krt_lock_reordering,
krt_lock_hoplimit, krt_lock_rto_min, krt_feature_ecn, krt_feature_allfrag

Did not really worked
|
|
Also significant core protocol state changes needed for that,
global graceful restart recovery state and kernel proto support
for recovery.
|
|
Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for the original patch.
|
|
|
|
Just one more renaming, old krt_set_notify() to krt_replace_rte().
|
|
Remove support for historic Linux kernels,
merge krt-iface, krt-set and krt-scan stub headers.
|
|
OS-dependent functions renamed to be more consistent,
prepared to merge krt-set and krt-scan headers.
Name changes:
struct krt_if_params -> struct kif_params
struct krt_if_status -> struct kif_status
struct krt_set/scan_params -> struct krt_params
struct krt_set/scan_status -> struct krt_status
krt_if_params_same -> kif_sys_reconfigure
krt_if_copy_params -> kif_sys_copy_config
krt_set/scan_params_same -> krt_sys_reconfigure
krt_set/scan_copy_params -> krt_sys_copy_config
krt_if_scan -> kif_do_scan
krt_set_notify -> krt_do_notify
krt_scan_fire -> krt_do_scan
krt_if_ -> kif_sys_
krt_scan_ -> krt_sys_
krt_set_ -> krt_sys_

Thanks Jeremie Dimino for the original patch.

Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for original patch.
|

Based on the patch from Alexander V. Chernikov.
Extended to support almost all protocols.
Uses 'protocol bgp NAME from TEMPLATE { ... }' syntax.
|
|
|

In usual configuration, such export is already restricted
with the aid of the direct protocol but there are some
races that can circumvent it. This makes it harder to
break kernel device routes. Also adds an option to
disable this restriction.

- 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

turned on, but after some testing I'll gag it.
|
|
depend on the startup counter hack now and uses a zero-time timer instead
to make itself scheduled after normal protocol startup.
|
|
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. :)
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
o Nothing is configured automatically. You _need_ to specify
the kernel syncer in config file in order to get it started.
o Syncing has been split to route syncer (protocol "Kernel") and
interface syncer (protocol "Device"), device routes are generated
by protocol "Direct" (now can exist in multiple instances, so that
it will be possible to feed different device routes to different
routing tables once multiple tables get supported).
See doc/bird.conf.example for a living example of these shiny features.

(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.
|
|
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.
