2020-01-07KRT: Improve syncer code to avoid using temporary data in rtableOndrej Zajicek (work)
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.
2019-12-19KRT: Remove KRF_SYNC_ERROR flagOndrej Zajicek (work)
This info is now stored in an internal bmap. Unfortunately, net.flags is still needed for temporary kernel data.
2019-12-17KRT: Fix removal of KRF_INSTALLEDOndrej Zajicek (work)
Use route id from net->routes to check export_map. Route received from sysdep KRT code does not have proper id.
2019-12-16KRT: Remove KRF_INSTALLED flagOndrej Zajicek (work)
The same information is stored in export_map of kernel protocol.
2019-11-26Nest: Use bitmaps to keep track of exported routesOndrej Zajicek (work)
Use a hierarchical bitmap in a routing table to assign ids to routes, and then use bitmaps (indexed by route id) in channels to keep track whether routes were exported. This avoids unreliable and inefficient re-evaluation of filters for old routes in order to determine whether they were exported.
2019-11-12Netlink: Handle IPv4 routes with IPv6 nexthopsOndrej Zajicek
Accept RTA_VIA attribute in all cases. The old code always used RTA_GATEWAY for IPv4 / IPv6 and RTA_VIA for MPLS. The new code uses RTA_VIA in cases where AF of network and AF of nexthop differs.
2019-10-22Accept uppercase letters in iproute2 namesOndrej Zajicek
Names read from texfiles in /etc/iproute2/* are normalized by replacing non-alphanumeric chars with underscore. The patch fixes handling of uppercase letters, which were handled as non-alphanumberic. Thanks to Igor Gavrilov for the bugreport.

2019-10-09Lib: Support for 64-bit numbers in bvsnprintf()Ondrej Zajicek (work)
Use 'l' for s64/u64 instead of for long/ulong, as that is much more useful. Also make number() correct with regard to signed/unsigned typecasts.
2019-10-04Fixed undefined behavior on signals.Maria Matejka
The C11 specification allows only sig_atomic_t and _Atomic variable access. All other accesses to global variables are undefined behavior. Using int was probably OK on x86 and x86_64; yet there were some reports from other architectures (especially some MIPS) that in rare cases, after issuing SIGHUP, BIRD did strange things.
2019-09-23Nest: Fix help for 'graceful restart' commandOndrej Zajicek (work)
Multi-worded commands are not automatically added to top-level help output. Thanks to Christoph for the bugreport.

2019-07-31Change 'graceful down' command to 'graceful restart' and update docsOndrej Zajicek (work)
The command initiating planned graceful restart including bird shutdown should be called 'graceful restart' instead of 'graceful down', as the later should be reserved for graceful shutdown in style of RFC 8326.

2019-07-15Netlink: Use route replace for IPv4Ondrej Zajicek (work)
Use route replace netlink op instead of delete+add netlink ops for kernel IPv4 route replace. This avoids some packetloss during route replace. Still use the old behavior for IPv6, as some kernel bugs are hidden in IPv6 ECMP handling.

2019-07-02Netlink: Handle alien routes with unsorted nexthopsOndrej Zajicek (work)
Nest requires that nexthops are sorted, the kernel protocol have to ensure that for alien routes.
2019-07-02Netlink: Do unified scan for both IPv4 and IPv6Ondrej Zajicek (work)
Instead of separate scans for IPv4, IPv6 and MPLS, do one AF_UNSPEC scan. This also avoids kernel issue when kernel reported IPv4 and IPv6 routes during MPLS scan if MPLS is not active.
2019-06-30Nest: Add command to request graceful restartOndrej Zajicek (work)
When 'graceful down' command is entered, protocols are shut down with regard to graceful restart. Namely Kernel protocol does not remove routes and BGP protocol does not send notification, just closes the connection.
2019-06-12Add CLI command to test reconfiguration statusOndrej Zajicek (work)
Based on patch from Kenth Eriksson <kenth.eriksson@infinera.com>.
2019-04-30BGP: Dynamic BGPOndrej Zajicek (work)
Support for dynamically spawning BGP protocols for incoming connections. Use 'neighbor range' to specify range of valid neighbor addresses, then incoming connections from these addresses spawn new BGP instances.

2019-03-14Nest: Update handling of temporary attributesOndrej Zajicek (work)
The temporary atttributes are no longer removed by ea_do_prune(), but they are undefined by store_tmp_attrs() protocol hooks. This fixes several bugs where temporary attributes were removed when they should not or not removed when they should be. The flag EAF_TEMP is no longer needed and was removed. Update all protocol make_tmp_attrs() / store_tmp_attrs() hooks to use helper functions and to handle unset attributes properly. Also fix some related bugs like improper handling of empty eattr list.

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.

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'.
