2019-02-20Filters: split the large filter.h file to smaller files.Maria Matejka
This should be revised, there are still ugly things in the filter API.
2019-02-20Filter refactoring: dropped the recursion from the interpreterMaria Matejka
This is a major change of how the filters are interpreted. If everything works how it should, it should not affect you unless you are hacking the filters themselves. Anyway, this change should make a huge improvement in the filter performance as previous benchmarks showed that our major problem lies in the recursion itself. There are also some changes in nest and protocols, related mostly to spreading const declarations throughout the whole BIRD and also to refactored dynamic attribute definitions. The need of these came up during the whole work and it is too difficult to split out these not-so-related changes.

2019-01-04Unix: Remove removed option from helpOndrej Zajicek (work)
Also includes minor cleanup of help.
2019-01-04BSD: Fix TCP-MD5 code on current FreeBSD kernelsOndrej Zajicek (work)
Current FreeBSD kernels require SA records for both directions. Thanks to Joseph Mulloy and Andrey V. Elsukov for reporting and solving the issue.
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.
2018-12-28KRT: Fix debug messages in netlink codeArthur Gautier
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!
2018-12-14Doc: Rename code documentation files back to DocOndrej Zajicek (work)
2018-12-04Unix: Change debugging optionsOndrej Zajicek (work)
The old behavior was that enabling debugging did many nontrivial changes in BIRD behavior. The patch changes it that these changes are generally independent. Compiling with --enable-debug now just enables compile-time debug macros, but do not automatically activate debug mode (-d) nor local mode (-l). Debug mode with output to file (-D) do not force foreground mode (-f), therefore there is no need for backgroud option (-b), which is removed. Also fixes a bug when the default log target in -D mode was stderr instead of given debug file.
2018-12-04Terminology cleanup: The import_control hook is now called preexport.Jan Maria Matejka
Once upon a time, far far away, there were the old Bird developers discussing what direction of route flow shall be called import and export. They decided to say "import to protocol" and "export to table" when speaking about a protocol. When speaking about a table, they spoke about "importing to table" and "exporting to protocol". The latter terminology was adopted in configuration, then also the bird CLI in commit ea2ae6dd0 started to use it (in year 2009). Now it's 2018 and the terminology is the latter. Import is from protocol to table, export is from table to protocol. Anyway, there was still an import_control hook which executed right before route export. One thing is funny. There are two commits in April 1999 with just two minutes between them. The older announces the final settlement on config terminology, the newer uses the other definition. Let's see their commit messages as the git-log tool shows them (the newer first): commit 9e0e485e50ea74c4f1c5cb65bdfe6ce819c2cee2 Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz> Date: Mon Apr 5 20:17:59 1999 +0000 Added some new protocol hooks (look at the comments for better explanation): make_tmp_attrs Convert inline attributes to ea_list store_tmp_attrs Convert ea_list to inline attributes import_control Pre-import decisions commit 5056c559c4eb253a4eee10cf35b694faec5265eb Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz> Date: Mon Apr 5 20:15:31 1999 +0000 Changed syntax of attaching filters to protocols to hopefully the final version: EXPORT <filter-spec> for outbound routes (i.e., those announced by BIRD to the rest of the world). IMPORT <filter-spec> for inbound routes (i.e., those imported by BIRD from the rest of the world). where <filter-spec> is one of: ALL pass all routes NONE drop all routes FILTER <name> use named filter FILTER { <filter> } use explicitly defined filter For all protocols, the default is IMPORT ALL, EXPORT NONE. This includes the kernel protocol, so that you need to add EXPORT ALL to get the previous configuration of kernel syncer (as usually, see doc/bird.conf.example for a bird.conf example :)). Let's say RIP to this almost 19-years-old inconsistency. For now, if you import a route, it is always from protocol to table. If you export a route, it is always from table to protocol. And they lived happily ever after.
2018-11-20The MRT protocolOndrej Zajicek (work)
The new MRT protocol is responsible for periodic RIB table dumps in the MRT format (RFC 6396). Also the existing code for BGP4MP MRT dumps is refactored and splitted between BGP to MRT protocols, will be more integrated into MRT in the future. Example: protocol mrt { table "*"; filename "%N_%F_%T.mrt"; period 60; } It is partially based on the old MRT code from Pavel Tvrdik.
2018-11-18Unix: Implement log file size limit / log rotationOndrej Zajicek (work)
Allow to specify log file size limit and ensure that log file is rotated to secondary name to avoid exceeding of log size limit. The patch also fixes a bug related to keeping old fds open after reconfiguration and using old fds after 'configure undo'.
2018-11-18Unix: Refactor tracked filesOndrej Zajicek (work)
We need access to resource in order to free it.

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).

2018-06-26Config: Dropping CF_ADDTO.Jan Maria Matejka
2018-05-30Nest: Removing separate tmpa from route propagationJan Maria Matejka
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().
2018-05-29Protocol: Introducing an enum protocol_classJan Maria Matejka
This supersedes the EAP_* constants.
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).
2018-03-21NEWS and version updateOndrej Zajicek (work)
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.
2018-02-06KRT: Fix IPv6 route learnOndrej Zajicek (work)
Internal table used for route learn was created with non-matching net type for IPv6 kernel proto. Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the bugreport

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.

2018-01-16Filter: Allow silent filter executionOndrej Zajicek (work)
A filter should log messages only if executed explicitly (e.g., during route export or route import). When a filter is executed for technical reasons (e.g., to establish whether a route was exported before), it should run silently.

2018-01-14KRT: Fix direct routes for BSDOndrej Zajicek (work)
Old way to set direct routes is to use local IP as gateway, but that does not work properly on newer FreeBSDs. Now we use sockaddr_dl containing interface index as gateway.
