There is a long-known CC attribute cleanup which allows to call a custom
cleanup function when an auto-storage variable ceases to exist. We're
gonna use it for end-of-loop and leave-locked-block macros.
This commit adds a static unit test for this compiler feature to be sure
that it really does what we want. We're looking forward to the next ISO
C norm where this may finally get a nice syntax and standardization.
Add a new protocol offering route aggregation.
User can specify list of route attributes in the configuration file and
run route aggregation on the export side of the pipe protocol. Routes are
sorted and for every group of equivalent routes new route is created and
exported to the routing table. It is also possible to specify filter
which will run for every route before aggregation.
Furthermore, it will be possible to set attributes of new routes
according to attributes of the aggregated routes.
This is a work in progress.
Original work by Igor Putovny, subsequent cleanups and finalization by
Maria Matejka.
This is a split-commit of the neighboring aggregator branch
with a bit improved lvalue handling, to have easier merge into v3.
Added a code for computing hash of filter values.
This is a split-commit of the neighboring aggregator branch
with improved lvalue and attribute handling.
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.
Use mpls_new_label() / mpls_free_label() also for static labels, to keep
track of allocated labels and to enforce label ranges.
Static label allocations always use static label range, regardless of
configured label range.
Instead of just using route attributes, static routes with
static MPLS labels can be defined just by e.g.:
route 10.1.1.0/24 mpls 100 via 10.1.2.1 mpls 200;
The L3VPN protocol implements RFC 4364 BGP/MPLS VPNs using MPLS backbone.
It works similarly to pipe. It connects IP table (one per VRF) with (global)
VPN table. Routes passed from VPN table to IP table are stripped of RD and
filtered by import targets, routes passed in the other direction are extended
with RD, MPLS labels and export targets in extended communities. A separate
MPLS channel is used to announce MPLS routes for the labels.
The new labeling policy MPLS_POLICY_VRF assigns one label to all routes
(from the same FEC map associated with one VRF), while replaces their
next hops with a lookup to a VRF table. This is useful for L3VPN
protocol.
