In some circumstances (old LSA flushed but not acknowledged and not
removed) origination of a new LSA may wrongly triggers LSA collision
code. The patch fixes that.
Thanks to Asbjorn Mikkelsen for the bugreport and @mdelagueronniere
for the original patch.
Fix crash during reconfiguration of OSPF config with vlinks. When vlink
is reconfigured, a generic iface-reconfiguration code is used, which in
one place supposes that it is running on a regular iface.
Thanks to Cybertinus for a bugreport.
Neighbor entries for static ECMP routes were not cleaned up during
reconfigure and pointed to the old instances, which leads to crash
after reconfigure.
Thanks to Vladimir Osmolovskiy for the bugreport.
Most protocols in IPv6 mode use link-local source addresses and expect
that there is one on each active interface. The old code depended on
assumption that if there is some IPv6 address on iface, there is also an
IPv6 link-local address on that iface (added by kernel when the iface
went up). Unfortunately, that is not generally true, as a configured
global address sometimes ceases to be tentative (finishes DOD) before
a link-local address on the same iface. In such case a protocol iface
(namely RAdv and Babel) is activated, but fails to found link-local
address and stays in failed state.
The patch fixes that by tracking 'primary' IPv6 link-local address,
sending iface restart notifications when it changes and making
protocols ignore iface-up notifications when no such address is
selected for an iface.
Missing argument in MTU change trace message can crash bird when MTU
change happens and trace messages are active.
Thanks to Alexander Velkov for the bugreport.
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.
When use of LLGR is negotiated, handle hold timeout by LLGR instead of by
hard restart. Allow to configure whether BFD session down event should be
handled by GR/LLGR or by hard restart.
If export filter is changed during reconfiguration and a route disappears
between reconfiguration and refeed (e.g., if the route is a static route
also removed during the reconfiguration), the route is not withdrawn.
The patch fixes that by adding tx reconfiguration timestamp.
RFC6126bis introduces a flags field for the Hello TLV, and adds a unicast flag
that is used to signify that a hello was sent as unicast. This adds parsing of
the flags field and ignores such unicast hellos, which preserves compatibility
until we can add a proper implementation of the unicast hello mechanism.
Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the patch.
The patch implements Default Router Preferences and More-Specific Routes
(RFC 4191) for RAdv protocol, allowing to announce router preference and
more specific routes in router advertisements. Routes can be exported to
RAdv like to regular routing protocols.
Some cleanups, bugfixes and other changes done by Ondrej Zajicek.
The patch implements BGP Administrative Shutdown Communication (RFC 8203)
allowing BGP operators to pass messages related to BGP session
administrative shutdown/restart. It handles both transmit and receive of
shutdown messages. Messages are logged and may be displayed by show
protocol all command.
Thanks to Job Snijders for the basic patch.
Add basic VRF (virtual routing and forwarding) support. Protocols can be
associated with VRFs, such protocols will be restricted to interfaces
assigned to the VRF (as reported by Linux kernel) and will use sockets
bound to the VRF. E.g., different multihop BGP instances can use diffent
kernel routing tables to handle BGP TCP connections.
The VRF support is preliminary, currently there are several limitations:
- Recent Linux kernels (4.11) do not handle correctly sockets bound
to interaces that are part of VRF, so most protocols other than multihop
BGP do not work. This will be fixed by future kernel versions.
- Neighbor cache ignores VRFs. Breaks config with the same prefix on
local interfaces in different VRFs. Not much problem as single hop
protocols do not work anyways.
- Olock code ignores VRFs. Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the
same IP address in different VRFs.
- Incoming BGP connections are not dispatched according to VRFs.
Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the same IP address in
different VRFs. Perhaps we would need some kernel API to read VRF of
incoming connection? Or probably use multiple listening sockets in
int-new branch.
- We should handle master VRF interface up/down events and perhaps
disable associated protocols when VRF goes down. Or at least disable
associated interfaces.
- Also we should check if the master iface is really VRF iface and
not some other kind of master iface.
- BFD session request dispatch should be aware of VRFs.
- Perhaps kernel protocol should read default kernel table ID from VRF
iface so it is not necessary to configure it.
- Perhaps we should have per-VRF default table.
Keep a cache of all the relevant prefixes we send out. When a prefix
appears, insert it into the cache. If it dies, keep it there for a
while, marked as dead.
Send out the dead prefixes with zero lifetime.
Adapt the naming conventions to be a bit closer to the other protocols.
proto_radv -> radv_proto
struct radv_proto *ra -> struct radv_proto *p
struct proto *p -> struct proto *P
When a BGP session with ADD_PATH is restarted and the neighbor do not
announce ADD_PATH capability during reconnect, the accept_ra_types is
still set to RA_ANY.
Thanks to Lennert Buytenhek for the bugreport
During reconfiguration, old and new filter expressions in static routes
are compared using i_same() function. When filter expressions contain
function calls, it is necessary that old filter expressions are the
second argument in i_same(), as it is internally modified by i_same().
Otherwise pointers to old (and freed) data appear in the config
structure.
Thanks to Lennert Buytenhek for tracking and reporting the bug.
The variable nfa is not cleaned before each loop iteration and can have
a wrong value of nfa.nhs_reuse from the previous step.
Thanks to Bernardo Figueiredo for the bugreport and analysis.
Stubnet nodes in OSPF FIB were removed during rt_sync(), but the pointer
remained in top_hash_entry.nf, so net-summary LSA origination was
confused, reported 'LSA ID collision' and net-summary LSAs were not
originated properly.
Thanks to Naveen Chowdary Yerramneni for bugreport and analysis.
Prefix and bucket tables are initialized when entering established state
but not explicitly freed when leaving it (that is handled by protocol
restart). With graceful restart, BGP may enter and leave established
state multiple times without hard protocol restart causing memory leak.
Commit 3c09af41... changed behavior of int_set_add() from prepend to
append, which makes more sense for community list, but prepend must be
used for cluster list. Add int_set_prepend() and use it in cluster list
handling code.
Implement BFD authentication (part of RFC 5880). Supports plaintext
passwords and cryptographic MD5 / SHA-1 authentication.
Based on former commit from Pavel Tvrdik
Add support for large communities (draft-ietf-idr-large-community),
96bit alternative to RFC 1997 communities.
Thanks to Matt Griswold for the original patch.
It is possible that sockets_add() are called between sockets_prepare()
and sockets_fire() during poll loop in birdloop_main(), so we need to
use loop->poll_fd.used instead of loop->sock_num to find the last field.
