There are now 3 different pools with specific lifetime. All of these are
available since protocol start, anyway they get freed in different
moments.
First, pool_up gets freed immediately after announcing PS_STOP, to e.g.
stop all timers and events regularly updating the routing table when the
imports are already flushing.
Then, pool_inloop gets freed just before the protocol loop is finally
stopped, after all channels, imports and exports and other hooks are
cleaned up.
And finally, the pool itself is freed the last. Unless you explicitly
need the early free, use this pool.
For whatever reason, parser allocated a symbol for every parsed keyword
in each scope. That wasted time and memory. The effect is worsened with
recent changes allowing local scopes, so keywords often promote soft
scopes (with no symbols) to real scopes.
Do not allocate a symbol for a keyword. Take care of keywords that could
be promoted to symbols (kw_sym) and do it explicitly.
The symbol table used just symbol name as a key, and used a trick with
active flag to find symbols in active scopes with one hash table lookup.
The disadvantage is that it can degenerate to O(n) for negative queries
in situations where are many symbols with the same name in different
scopes.
Thanks to Yanko Kaneti for the bugreport.
The Kernel protocol, even with the option 'learn' enabled, ignores
direct routes created by the OS kernel (on Linux these are routes
with rtm_protocol == RTPROT_KERNEL).
Implement optional behavior where both OS kernel and third-party routes
are learned, it can be enabled by 'learn all' option.
Minor changes by committer.
Old configs do not define MPLS domains and may use a static protocol
to define static MPLS routes.
When MPLS channel is the only channel of static protocol, handle it
as a main channel. Also, define implicit MPLS domain if needed and
none is defined.
When regular event was added from work event, we did remember that
regular event list was empty and therefore we did not use zero time
in poll(). This leads to ~3 s latency in route reload during
reconfiguration.
When a MPLS channel is reloaded, it should reload all regular MPLS-aware
channels. This causes re-evaluation of routes in FEC map and possibly
reannouncement of MPLS routes.
