Introduced in 08ff0af898, the additional CLI
configuration wasn't properly initialized in the parse-and-exit mode
due to an oversight that cli_init_unix() is not called in this mode.
Thanks to Felix Friedlander for the bugreport.
The period of recurent timers was stored in 32b field, despite it was
btime-compatible value in us. Therefore, it was limited to ~72 min,
which mas okay for most purposes, except configurable MRT dump periods.
Thanks to Felix Friedlander for the bugreport.
The socket structure has the field rbsize (receive buffer size), which
controls the size of the userspace receive buffer. There is also kernel
receive buffer, which in some cases may be smaller (e.g. on FreeBSD it
is by default ~8k). The patch ensures that the kernel receive buffer is
as large as the userspace receive buffer.
When VRFs are used, BIRD correctly binds listening (and connecting)
sockets to their VRFs but also re-binds accepted sockets to the same VRF.
This is not needed as the interface bind is inherited in this case, and
indeed this redundant bind causes an -EPERM if BIRD is running as
non-root making BIRD close the connection and reject the peer.
Thanks to Christian Svensson for the original patch and Alexander Zubkov
for suggestions.
This allows to have one main socket for the heavy operations
very restricted just for the appropriate users, whereas the
looking glass socket may be more open.
Implemented an idea originally submitted and requested by Akamai.
Some vendors do not fill the checksum for IPv6 UDP packets.
For interoperability with such implementations one can set
UDP_NO_CHECK6_RX socket option on Linux.
Thanks to Ville O for the suggestion.
Minor changes by committer.
Move bfd_opts grammar inside BFD parser code to avoid dependences between
nest and BFD grammars, which breaks when BFD build is disabled.
Add dummy bfd_opts grammar rule, so protocols can use this nonterminal
even with BFD disabled.
Thanks to Yuri Honegger for the bugreport.
In OSPFv3-IPv4 there is no requirement that link-local next hop announced
in Link-LSA must be in interface address range. Therefore, for interfaces
that do not have IPv4 address we can use some loopback IP address and
announce it as a next hop. Also we should accept such address.
BFD requires defined local IP, but for nexthop with onlink there might
not be such address. So we reject this combination of nexthop options.
This prevent crash where such combination of options is used.
Add route attribute gw_mpls_stack to make MPLS stack of route nexthop
accessible from filters. Its type is T_CLIST, which is really not correct
(as it is a list, while T_CLIST is a set). Therefore, we keep this
attribute *undocumented* and it will be *changed* without further notice.
Based on a patch from Trisha Biswas <tbiswas@fastly.com>, thanks!
Allow to explicitly configure the source IP address for RPKI-To-Router
sessions. Predictable source addresses are useful for minimizing the
holes to be poked in ACLs.
Changed from 'source address' to 'local address' by committer.
BGP route attributes have flags (Optional, Transitive) that are validated
on decode and set to valid value on export. But if such attribute is
modified by filter or set internally by BGP during import, then its flags
would be zero in local tables. That usually does not matter, as they are
not used locally and they were fixed on export, but invalid flags leaked
in BMP and MRT dumps.
Keep route attribute flags set to valid values even when set by filters
or modified by BGP.
Allow to define both nexthop and interface using iproute2-like syntax,
e.g.: route 10.0.0.0/16 via 10.1.0.1 dev "eth0";
Now we can avoid to use link-local scope hack (e.g. 10.1.0.1%eth0)
for cases where both nexthop and interface have to be defined.
Thanks to Marcin Saklak for the suggestion.
