The usage pattern implemented in allocator seems to be incompatible with
transparent huge pages, as memory released using madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
with regular page size and alignment does not seem to trigger demotion
of huge pages back to regular pages, even when significant number of
pages is released. Even if demotion is triggered when system memory
is low, it still breaks memory accounting.

Add support for kernel route metric/priority, exported as krt_metric
attribute, like in Linux. This should also fix issues with overwriting
or removing system routes.

Log message before aborting due to watchdog timeout. We have to use
async-safe write to debug log, as it is done in signal handler.

Use symlinks to linux/netlink* to avoid limitations of our buildsystem.

FreeBSD 13.0 added some safechecks for syscalls, rejecting sockaddrs that
are too small, later versions loosen up the check.

When there is a continuos stream of CLI commands, cli_get_command()
always returns 1 (there is a new command). Anyway, the socket receive
buffer was reset only when there was no command at all, leading to a
strange behavior: after a while, the CLI receive buffer came to its end,
then read() was called with zero size buffer, it returned 0 which was
interpreted as EOF.
The patch fixes that by resetting the buffer position after each command
and moving remaining data at the beginning of buffer.
Thanks to Maria Matejka for examining the bug and for the original bugfix.

Netlink support was added to FreeBSD recently. It is not as full-featured
as its Linux counterpart yet, however the added subset is enough to make
a routing daemon work. Specifically, it supports multiple tables,
multipath, nexthops and nexthops groups. No MPLS support yet.
The attached change adds 'bsd-netlink’ sysconf target, allowing to build
both netlink & rtsock versions on FreeBSD.

While it does not directly change BIRD state, it can trigger reading
arbitrary files and eating significant memory.

BIRD keeps a previous (old) configuration for the purpose of undo. The
existing code frees it after a new configuration is successfully parsed
during reconfiguration. That causes memory usage spikes as there are
temporarily three configurations (old, current, and new). The patch
changes it to free the old one before parsing the new one (as user
already requested a new config). The disadvantage is that undo is
not available after failed reconfiguration.

Memory unmapping causes slow address space fragmentation, leading in
extreme cases to failing to allocate pages at all. Removing this problem
by keeping all the pages allocated to us, yet calling madvise() to let
kernel dispose of them.
This adds a little complexity and overhead as we have to keep the
pointers to the free pages, therefore to hold e.g. 1 GB of 4K pages with
8B pointers, we have to store 2 MB of data.

While onlink flag is meaningful only with explicit next hops, it can be
defined also on direct routes. Parse it also in this case to avoid
periodic updates of the same route.
Thanks to Marcin Saklak for the bugreport.

Changes in commit eb937358 broke setting of channel preference for alien
routes learned during scan. The preference was set only for async routes.
Move common attribute processing part of functions krt_learn_async() and
krt_learn_async() to a separate function to have only one place for such
changes.

Seems like the previous patch was too optimistic, as route replace is
still broken even in Linux 4.19 LTS (but fixed in Linux 5.10 LTS) for:
ip route add 2001:db8::/32 via fe80::1 dev eth0
ip route replace 2001:db8::/32 dev eth0
It ends with two routes instead of just the second.
The issue is limited to direct and special type (e.g. unreachable)
routes, the patch restricts route replace for cases when the new route
is a regular route (with a next hop address).

When IPv6 ECMP support first appeared in Linux kernel, it used different
API than IPv4 ECMP. Individual next hops were updated and announced
separately, instead of using RTA_MULTIPATH as in IPv4. This has several
drawbacks and requires complex code to merge received notifications to
one multipath route.
When Linux came with IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH support, the initial versions
were somewhat buggy, so we kept using the old API for updates (splitting
multipath routes to sequences of route updates), while accepting both
old-style routes and RTA_MULTIPATH routes in scans / notifications.
As IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH support is here for a long time, this patch fully
switches Netlink to the IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH API and removes old complex
code for handling individual next hop announces.
The required Linux version is at least 4.11 for reliable operation.
Thanks to Daniel Gröber for the original patch.

Remove compile-time sysdep option CONFIG_ALL_TABLES_AT_ONCE, replace it
with runtime ability to run either separate table scans or shared scan.
On Linux, use separate table scans by default when the netlink socket
option NETLINK_GET_STRICT_CHK is available, but retreat to shared scan
when it fails.
Running separate table scans has advantages where some routing tables are
managed independently, e.g. when multiple routing daemons are running on
the same machine, as kernel routing table modification performance is
significantly reduced when the table is modified while it is being
scanned.
Thanks Daniel Gröber for the original patch and Toke Høiland-Jørgensen
for suggestions.

Soft scopes are anonymous scopes that most likely do not contain any
symbol, so allocating regular scope is postponed when it is really
needed.

Passing protocol to preexport was in fact a historical relic from the
old times when channels weren't a thing. Refactoring that to match
current extensibility needs.

When BIRD was munmapping too many pages, it sometimes aborted, saying
that munmap failed with "Not enough memory" as the address space was
getting more and more fragmented.
There is a workaround in place, simply keeping that page for future use,
yet it has never been compiled in because I somehow forgot to include
errno.h. And because I also thought that somebody may have ENOMEM not
defined (why?!), there was a check which quietly omitted that
workaround.
Anyway, ENOMEM is POSIX. It's an utter nonsense to check for its
existence. If it doesn't exist, something is broken.
