This is part of the multithreading journey. The parser and lexer were
using loads of global variables and all of these are now packed into
struct cf_context and others.
Note that the config API has changed:
* cfg_alloc[zu]?(size) is now cf_alloc[zu]?(ctx, size)
* cf_error(msg, ...) is now cf_error(ctx, msg, ...)
* config_parse() and cli_parse() are now called differently
* there is a brand new CF_CTX section in *.Y files which participates
in struct cf_context construction
The old timer interface is still kept, but implemented by new timers. The
plan is to switch from the old inteface to the new interface, then clean
it up.
I also moved the boundary between generic parts of the CLI and sysdep
code: the generic parts now assume that CLI runs over a socket, but
the actual creation of the socket is still kept in sysdep.
The documentation does not reflect these changes yet.
Also removed the lib-dir merging with sysdep. Updated #include's
accordingly.
Fixed make doc on recent Debian together with moving generated doc into
objdir.
Moved Makefile.in into root dir
Retired all.o and birdlib.a
Linking the final binaries directly from all the .o files.
In BIRD, RX has lower priority than TX with the exception of RX from
control socket. The patch replaces heuristic based on socket type with
explicit mark and uses it for both control socket and BGP session waiting
to be established.
This should avoid an issue when during heavy load, outgoing connection
could connect (TX event), send open, but then failed to receive OPEN /
establish in time, not sending notifications between and therefore
got hold timer expired error from the neighbor immediately after it
finally established the connection.
Symbol lookup by cf_find_symbol() not only did the lookup but also added
new void symbols allocated from cfg_mem linpool, which gets broken when
lookups are done outside of config parsing, which may lead to crashes
during reconfiguration.
The patch separates lookup-only cf_find_symbol() and config-modifying
cf_get_symbol(), while the later is called only during parsing. Also
new_config and cfg_mem global variables are NULLed outside of parsing.
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
- ROA tables, which are used as a basic part for RPKI.
- Commands for examining and modifying ROA tables.
- Filter operators based on ROA tables consistent with RFC 6483.
