On large configurations, too many threads would spawn with one thread
per loop. Therefore, threads may now run multiple loops at once. The
thread count is configurable and may be changed during run. All threads
are spawned on startup.
This change helps with memory bloating. BIRD filters need large
temporary memory blocks to store their stack and also memory management
keeps its hot page storage per-thread.
Known bugs:
* Thread autobalancing is not yet implemented.
* Low latency loops are executed together with standard loops.
This is a quick workaround for an issue where configured logfiles are
opened/created during parsing of a config file even when parse-and-exit
option is active. We should later refactor the logging code to avoid
opening log during parsing altogether.
The command initiating planned graceful restart including bird shutdown
should be called 'graceful restart' instead of 'graceful down', as the
later should be reserved for graceful shutdown in style of RFC 8326.
When 'graceful down' command is entered, protocols are shut down
with regard to graceful restart. Namely Kernel protocol does
not remove routes and BGP protocol does not send notification,
just closes the connection.
Allow to specify log file size limit and ensure that log file is rotated
to secondary name to avoid exceeding of log size limit.
The patch also fixes a bug related to keeping old fds open after
reconfiguration and using old fds after 'configure undo'.
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.
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
