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.

Also includes minor cleanup of help.

Current FreeBSD kernels require SA records for both directions.
Thanks to Joseph Mulloy and Andrey V. Elsukov for reporting and
solving the issue.

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.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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'.

We need access to resource in order to free it.

Release BIRD now and then let it flee

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).

Simplify neighbor cache code, fix several minor bugs, and improve
handling of ONLINK flag.

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.

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).

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.

Internal table used for route learn was created with non-matching net
type for IPv6 kernel proto.

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.

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.
|

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.
