Lexer expression for bytestring was too loose, accepting also
full-length IPv6 addresses. It should be restricted such that
colon is used between every byte or never.
Fix the regex and also add some test cases for it.
Thanks to Alexander Zubkov for the bugreport
BIRD implements shutdown by reconfiguring to fake empty configuration.
Such fake config structure is created from the last running config and
shares some data, including symbol table. This allows access to (removed)
routing tables and causes crash when 'show route' command is used during
shutdown.
Clean up symbol table, table list and links to default tables, so removed
routing tables cannot be accessed during shutdown.
Add support for specifying a password in hexadecimal format, The result
is the same whether a password is specified as a quoted string or a
hex-encoded byte string, this just makes it more convenient to input
high-entropy byte strings as MAC keys.
Add a wrapper function in sysdep to get random bytes, and required checks
in configure.ac to select how to do it. The configure script tries, in
order, getrandom(), getentropy() and reading from /dev/urandom.
This is an implementation of draft-walton-bgp-hostname-capability-02.
It is implemented since quite some time for FRR and in datacenter, this
gives a nice output to avoid using IP addresses.
It is disabled by default. The hostname is retrieved from uname(2) and
can be overriden with "hostname" option. The domain name is never set
nor displayed.
Minor changes by committer.
The patch add support for per-channel debug flags, currently just
'states', 'routes', and 'filters'. Flag 'states' is used for channel
state changes, remaining two for routes passed through the channel.
The per-protocol debug flags 'routes'/'filters' still enable reporting
of routes for all channels, to keep existing behavior.
The patch causes minor changes in some log messages.
When config structures are copied due to template application,
we need to reset list node structure before calling add_tail().
Thanks to Mikael Magnusson for patches.
Merge multiple BFD option blocks in BGP configs instead of using the last
one. That is necessary for proper handling of templates when BFD options
are used both in a BGP template and in a BGP protocol derived from that
template.
BFD session options are configured per interface in BFD protocol. This
patch allows to specify them also per-request in protocols requesting
sessions (currently limited to BGP).
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.
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.
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.
