Some [redacted] (yes, myself) had a really bad idea
to rename nest/route.h to nest/rt.h while refactoring
some data structures out of it.
This led to unnecessarily complex problems with
merging updates from v2. Reverting this change
to make my life a bit easier.
At least it needed only one find-sed command:
find -name '*.[chlY]' -type f -exec sed -i 's#nest/rt.h#nest/route.h#' '{}' +
This merge was particularly difficult. I finally resorted to delete the
symbol scope active flag altogether and replace its usage by other
means.
Also I had to update custom route attribute registration to fit
both the scope updates in v2 and the data model in v3.

Keywords and attributes are split to separate namespaces, to avoid
collisions between regular keyword use and attribute overlay.
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.
If the protocol supports route refresh on export, we keep the stop-start
method of route refeed. This applies for BGP with ERR or with export
table on, for OSPF, Babel, RIP or Pipe.
For BGP without ERR or for future selective ROA reloads, we're adding an
auxiliary export request, doing the refeed while the main export request
is running, somehow resembling the original method of BIRD 2 refeed.
There is also a refeed request queue to keep track of different refeed
requests.
For now, there are 4 phases: Necessary (device), Connector (kernel, pipe), Generator (static, rpki) and Regular.
Started and reconfigured are from Necessary to Regular, shutdown backwards.
This way, kernel can flush routes before actually being shutdown.
According to RFC 5882, system should not interpret the local or remote
session state transition to AdminDown as failure. We followed that for
the local session state but not for the remote session state (which
just triggered a transition of the local state to Down). The patch
fixes that.
We do not properly generate AdminDown on our side, so the patch is
relevant just for interoperability with other systems.
Thanks to Sunnat Samadov for the bugreport.
Most syntactic constructs in BIRD configuration (e.g. protocol options)
are defined as keywords, which are distinct from symbols (user-defined
names for protocols, variables, ...). That may cause backwards
compatibility issue when a new feature is added, as it may collide with
existing user names.
We can allow keywords to be shadowed by symbols in almost all cases to
avoid this issue.
This replaces the previous mechanism, where shadowable symbols have to be
explictly added to kw_syms.
Nonterminal bytestring allows to provide expressions to be evaluated in
places where BYTETEXT is used now: passwords, radv custom option.
Based on the patch from Alexander Zubkov <green@qrator.net>, thanks!
- Rename BYTESTRING lexem to BYTETEXT, not to collide with 'bytestring' type name
- Add bytestring type with id T_BYTESTRING (0x2c)
- Add from_hex() filter function to create bytestring from hex string
- Add filter test cases for bytestring type
Minor changes by committer.
Despite not having defined 'master interface', VRF interfaces should be
treated as being inside respective VRFs. They behave as a loopback for
respective VRFs. Treating the VRF interface as inside the VRF allows
e.g. OSPF to pick up IP addresses defined on the VRF interface.
For this, we also need to tell apart VRF interfaces and regular interfaces.
Extend Netlink code to parse interface type and mark VRF interfaces with
IF_VRF flag.
Based on the patch from Erin Shepherd, thanks!
Move all bmp_peer_down() calls to one place and make it synchronous with
BGP session down, ensuring that BMP receives peer_down before route
withdraws from flushing.
Also refactor bmp_peer_down_() message generating code.
Now we use rt_notify() and channels for both feed and notifications,
in both import tables (pre-policy) and regular tables (post-policy).
Remove direct walk in bmp_route_monitor_snapshot().
- Manage BMP state through bmp_peer, bmp_stream, bmp_table structures
- Use channels and rt_notify() hook for route announcements
- Add support for post-policy monitoring
- Send End-of-RIB even when there is no routes
- Remove rte_update_in_notify() hook from import tables
- Update import tables to support channels
- Add bmp_hack (no feed / no flush) flag to channels
