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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Multi-worded commands are not automatically added to top-level
help output.
Thanks to Christoph for the bugreport.

We forgot to do that. Oops.

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.

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.

This led in corner cases to undefined buffer content
and garbage output.

Nest requires that nexthops are sorted, the kernel protocol have to
ensure that for alien routes.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.

Based on patch from Kenth Eriksson <kenth.eriksson@infinera.com>.

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.

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.

This should be revised, there are still ugly things in the filter API.
|

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
Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz>

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.

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).
