This commit removes the EAF_TYPE_* namespace completely and also for
route attributes, filter-based types T_* are used. This simplifies
fetching and setting route attributes from filters.
Also, there is now union bval which serves as an universal value holder
instead of private unions held separately by eattr and filter code.
|
|
Before this change, fetch-update-write and bitmasking was hardcoded in
attribute access code cased by the attribute type. Several filter
instructions are used to do it instead.
As this is certainly going to be a little bit slower than before, the
switch block in attribute access code should be completely removed in
near future, helping with both performance and code cleanliness.
The user interface should have stayed intact.

For compatibility with older systems use posix_memalign(). We can
switch to aligned_alloc() when we commit to C11 for multithreading.

Add option 'netlink rx buffer' to specify netlink socket receive buffer
size. Uses SO_RCVBUFFORCE, so it can override rmem_max limit.
Thanks to Trisha Biswas and Michal for the original patches.

Unfortunately, SOL_NETLINK is both recently added and arch-dependent,
so we cannot just define it.

Add strict checking for netlink KRT dumps to avoid PMTU cache records
from FNHE table dump along with KRT.
Linux Kernel added FNHE table dump to the netlink API in patch:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/8d3b68cd37fb5fddc470904cdd6793fcf480c6c1.1561131177.git.sbrivio@redhat.com/
Therefore, since Linux 5.3 these route cache entries are dumped together
with regular routes during periodic KRT scans, which in some cases may be
huge amount of useless data. This can be avoided by using strict checking
for netlink dumps:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20181008031644.15989-1-dsahern@kernel.org/
The patch mitigates the risk of receiving unknown and potentially large
number of FNHE records that would block BIRD I/O in each sync. There is a
known issue caused by the GRE tunnels on Linux that seems to be creating
one FNHE record for each destination IP address that is routed through
the tunnel, even when the PMTU equals to GRE interface MTU.
Thanks to Tomas Hlavacek for the original patch.

Kernel uses cloned routes to keep route cache entries, but reports them
together with regular routes. They were skipped implicitly as they
do not have rtm_protocol filled. Add explicit check for cloned flag
and skip such routes explicitly.
Also, improve debug logs of skipped routes.
|
|
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.

Currently, BIRD ignores dead routes to consider them absent. But it also
ignores its own routes and thus it can not correctly manage such routes
in some cases. This patch makes an exception for routes with proto bird
when ignoring dead routes, so they can be properly updated or removed.
Thanks to Alexander Zubkov for the original patch.

Function nl_parse_multipath() should handle errors internally.

The BSD kernel does not support the onlink flag and BIRD does not use
direct routes for next hop validation, instead depends on interface
address ranges. We would like to handle PtMP cases with only host
addresses configured, like:
ifconfig wg0 192.168.0.10/32
route add 192.168.0.4 -iface wg0
route add 192.168.0.8 -iface wg0
To accept BIRD routes with onlink next-hop, like:
route 192.168.42.0/24 via 192.168.0.4%wg0 onlink
BIRD would dismiss the route when receiving from the kernel, as the
next-hop 192.168.0.4 is not part of any interface subnet and onlink
flag is not kept by the BSD kernel.
The commit fixes this by assuming that for routes received from the
kernel, any next-hop is onlink on ifaces with only host addresses.
Thanks to Stefan Haller for the original patch.

Channels have now included rt_import_req and rt_export_req to hook into
the table instead of just one list node. This will (in future) allow for:
* channel import and export bound to different tables
* more efficient pipe code (dropping most of the channel code)
* conversion of 'show route' to a special kind of export
* temporary static routes from CLI
The import / export states are also updated to the new algorithms.

table structures directly
|
|
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.

It is an auxiliary key in the routing table, not a route attribute.

Kernel route sync is done by other ways now and this code is not used
currently.

We can also quite simply allocate bigger blocks. Anyway, we need these
blocks to be aligned to their size which needs one mmap() two times
bigger and then two munmap()s returning the unaligned parts.
The user can specify -B <N> on startup when <N> is the exponent of 2,
setting the block size to 2^N. On most systems, N is 12, anyway if you
know that your configuration is going to eat gigabytes of RAM, you are
almost forced to raise your block size as you may easily get into memory
fragmentation issues or you have to raise your maximum mapping count,
e.g. "sysctl vm.max_map_count=(number)".
