The learnt routes are now pushed all into the connected table, not only
the best one. This shouldn't do any damage in well managed setups, yet
it should be noted that it is a change of behavior.
If anybody misses a feature which they implemented by misusing this
internal learn table, let us know, we'll consider implementing it in a
better way.
Until now, if export table was enabled, Nest was storing exactly the
route before rt_notify() was called on it. This was quite sloppy and
spooky and it also wasn't reflecting the changes BGP does before
sending. And as BGP is storing the routes to be sent anyway, we are
simply keeping the already-sent routes in there to better rule out
unneeded reexports.
Some of the route attributes (IGP metric, preference) make no sense in
BGP, therefore these will be probably replaced by something sensible.
Also the nexthop shown in the short output is the BGP nexthop.
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.
For loops allow to iterate over elements in compound data like BGP paths
or community lists. The syntax is:
for [ <type> ] <variable> in <expr> do <command-body>
Allow variable declarations mixed with code, also in nested blocks with
proper scoping, and with variable initializers. E.g:
function fn(int a)
{
int b;
int c = 10;
if a > 20 then
{
b = 30;
int d = c * 2;
print a, b, c, d;
}
string s = "Hello";
}
When f_line is done, we have to pop the stack frame. The old code just
removed nominal number of args/vars. Change it to use stored ventry value
modified by number of returned values. This allows to allocate variables
on a stack frame during execution of f_lines instead of just at start.
But we need to know the number of returned values for a f_line. It is 1
for term, 0 for cmd. Store that to f_line during linearization.
When a new variable used the same name as an existing symbol in an outer
scope, then offset number was defined based on a scope of the existing
symbol ($3) instead of a scope of the new symbol (sym_). That can lead
to two variables sharing the same memory slot.
Direct recursion almost worked, just crashed on function signature check.
Split function parsing such that function signature is saved before
function body is processed. Recursive calls are marked so they can be
avoided during f_same() and similar code walking.
Also, include tower of hanoi solver as a test case.
Add literal for empty set [], which works both for tree-based sets
and prefix sets by using existing constant promotion mechanism.
Minor changes by committer.
All instructions with a return value (i.e. expressions, ones with
non-zero outval, third argument in INST()) should declare their return
type. Check that automatically by M4 macros.
Set outval of FI_RETURN to 0. The instruction adds one value to stack,
but syntactically it is a statement, not an expression.
Add fake return type declaration to FI_CALL, otherwise the automatic
check would fail builds.
Pass instructions of function call arguments as vararg arguments to
FI_CALL instruction constructor and move necessary magic from parser
code to interpreter / instruction code.
Passing protocol to preexport was in fact a historical relic from the
old times when channels weren't a thing. Refactoring that to match
current extensibility needs.
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.
Added an option for export filter to allow for prefiltering based on the
prefix. Routes outside the given prefix are completely ignored. Config
is simple:
export in <net> <filter>;
There were quite a lot of conflicts in flowspec validation code which
ultimately led to some code being a bit rewritten, not only adapted from
this or that branch, yet it is still in a limit of a merge.
Validation is called internally from route table at the same place where
nexthop resolution is done. Also accounting for rte->sender semantics
change (not a channel but the import hook instead).
When writing flow4 { dst 2001:db8::dead:beef/128; }, BIRD crashed on an
not-well-debuggable segfault as it tried to copy the whole 128-bit
prefix into an IPv4-sized memory.
The Babel seqno request code keeps track of which seqno requests are
outstanding for a neighbour by putting them onto a per-neighbour list. When
reusing a seqno request, it will try to remove this node, but if the seqno
request in question was a multicast request with no neighbour attached this
will result in a crash because it tries to remove a list node that wasn't
added to any list.
Fix this by making the list remove conditional. Also fix neighbor removal
which were changing seqno requests to multicast ones instead of removing
them.
Fixes: ebd5751cde ("Babel: Seqno requests are properly decoupled from
neighbors when the underlying interface disappears").
Based on the patch from Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@toke.dk>,
bug reported by Stefan Haller <stefan.haller@stha.de>, thanks.
Use timer (configurable as 'gc period') to schedule routing table
GC/pruning to ensure that prune is done on time but not too often.
Randomize GC timers to avoid concentration of GC events from different
tables in one loop cycle.
Fix a bug that caused minimum inter-GC interval be 5 us instead of 5 s.
Make default 'gc period' adaptive based on number of routing tables,
from 10 s for small setups to 600 s for large ones.
In marge multi-table RS setup, the patch improved time of flushing
a downed peer from 20-30 min to <2 min and removed 40s latencies.
