The spinlocked hash has a main rw spinlock for the data blocks
and then a rw spinlock for each hash chain. Rehashing is asynchronous,
running from an event, and it happens chain-wise, never blocking more
than one chain at a time.
Memory allocation is a fragile part of BIRD and we need checking that
everybody is using the resource pools in an appropriate way. To assure
this, all the resource pools are associated with locking domains and
every resource manipulation is thoroughly checked whether the
appropriate locking domain is locked.
With transitive resource manipulation like resource dumping or mass free
operations, domains are locked and unlocked on the go, thus we require
pool domains to have higher order than their parent to allow for this
transitive operations.
Adding pool locking revealed some cases of insecure memory manipulation
and this commit fixes that as well.
It's now possible to pause iteration through hash. This requires
struct hash_iterator to be allocated somewhere handy.
The iteration itself is surrounded by HASH_WALK_ITER and
HASH_WALK_ITER_END. Call HASH_WALK_ITER_PUT to ask for pausing; it may
still do some more iterations until it comes to a suitable pausing
point. The iterator must be initalized to an empty structure. No cleanup
is needed if iteration is abandoned inbetween.
