Some CLI actions, notably "show route", are run by queuing an event
somewhere else. If the user closes the socket, in case such an action is
being executed, the CLI must free the socket immediately from the error
hook but the pool must remain until the asynchronous event finishes and
cleans everything up.
In the multithreaded environment, it is not supposed that anybody
traverses the routing table as the CLI show-route was doing. Now the
routing table traversal is gone and CLI won't hold the table locked
while computing filters.
Continuation lines may use short form (with space instead of message
number), but this should not be done when previous line is final.
Thanks to Kenth Eriksson for the bugreport and analysis.
Several new configure command variants:
configure undo - undo last reconfiguration
configure timeout - configure with scheduled undo if not confirmed in timeout
configure confirm - confirm last configuration
configure check - just parse and validate config file
we want to allow filter and similar complex constructs to be used in commands
and we should avoid code duplication), only with CLI_MARKER token prepended
before the whole input.
Defined macro CF_CLI(cmd, args, help) for defining CLI commands in .Y files.
The first argument specifies the command itself, the remaining two arguments
are copied to the help file (er, will be copied after the help file starts
to exist). This macro automatically creates a skeleton rule for the command,
you only need to append arguments as in:
CF_CLI(STEAL MONEY, <$>, [[Steal <$> US dollars or equivalent in any other currency]]): NUM {
cli_msg(0, "%d$ stolen", $3);
} ;
Also don't forget to reset lexer state between inputs.
