RPKI: Fix unnecessary reconnection on reconfiguration
Compare the new timing parameters with the old configuration, not with
the temporary state of the current connection.
The timing values in struct rpki_cache is updated by a version 1 End Of
Data PDU, unless this behavior is suppressed by the configuration
explicitly by the "keep" keyword. Consequently, every reconfiguration
of BIRD triggers a reconnection even if it is not necessary.
Log: Do not open logfiles when parse-and-exit option is active
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.
Babel: Set onlink flag for IPv4 routes with unreachable next hop
If the next hop of a route is not a reachable address, the route should be
installed as onlink. This enables a configuration common in mesh networks
where the mesh interface is assigned a /32 and babel handles the routing by
installing onlink routes.
This issue has a long history. In 2012, we changed data field for
unnumbered PtP links from iface id (specified by RFC) to IP address based
on reports of bugs in Quagga that required it, and we used out-of-band
information to distinquish unnumberred PtPs with the same local IP
address.
Then with OSPF graceful restart implementation, we found that we can no
longer use out-of-band information, and we need to use only LSAdb info
for routing table calculation, but i forgot to finish handling of this
case, so multiple unnumbered PtPs with the same local IP addresses were
broken.
Considering that even recent Mikrotik RouterOS has broken next hop
calculation that depends on IP address in PtP link data field, we
cannot just switch back to the iface id for unnumbered PtP links.
The patch makes two changes: First, it goes back to use out-of-band
(position) info for distinguishing local interfaces in SPF when graceful
restart is not enabled, while still uses LSAdb-only approach for SPF
calculation when graceful restart is enabled.
Second, it adds OSPF interface option 'ptp address', which controls
whether IP address or iface id is used in data field. It is enabled
by default except for unnumbered PtP links with enabled graceful
restart.
Thanks to Kenth Eriksson for the bugreport and Joakim Tjernlund for
suggestions.
There is nothing in RFCs specifying that id 0 is not allowed. Some
implementations does not support it, while some other use key id 0 by
default. We allow it but start with key id 1 by default.
Implement regex-like '+' operator in BGP path masks to match previous
path mask item multiple times. This is useful as ASNs may appear
multiple times in paths due to path prepending for traffic engineering
purposes.
BGP: Fix handling of strange IPv6 link-local-only next hops
There are three common ways how to encode IPv6 link-local-only next hops:
(:: ll), (ll), and (ll ll). We use the first one but we should accept all
three. The patch fixes handling of the last one.
The RFC 5575 does not explicitly reject flowspec rules without dst part,
it just requires dst part in validation procedure for feasibility, which
we do not implement anyway. Thus flow without dst prefix is syntactically
valid, but unfeasible (if feasibilty testing is done).
BGP: Support for MD5SIG together with remote range
When dynamic BGP with remote range is configured, MD5SIG needs to use
newer socket option (TCP_MD5SIG_EXT) to specify remote addres range for
listening socket.
Recent changes in neighbor code caused RIP to access neighbor field which
is NULL during interface/neighbor removal and caused crash when debug
messages are enabled. Use correct field to get iface from neighbor.
KRT: Improve syncer code to avoid using temporary data in rtable
The old code stored route verdicts and temporary routes directly in
rtable. The new code do not store received routes (it immediately
compares them with exported routes and resolves conflicts) and uses
internal bitmap to keep track of which routes were received and which
needs to be reinstalled.
By not putting 'invalid' temporary routes to rtable, we keep rtable
in consistent state, therefore scan no longer needs to be atomic
operation and could be splitted to multiple events.
Initial parsing of test.conf must be done directly in filter_test main,
while reconfiguration is handled as a regular test. Also fix several
minor issues in test code.
Channel currently does not have independent pool and uses protocol pool,
which is freed when protocol changes state to down, while channel is
still in flushing. Move some some cleanup code to channel_do_flush()
so it is done before freeing of protocol pool.
Nest: Use bitmaps to keep track of exported routes
Use a hierarchical bitmap in a routing table to assign ids to routes, and
then use bitmaps (indexed by route id) in channels to keep track whether
routes were exported. This avoids unreliable and inefficient re-evaluation
of filters for old routes in order to determine whether they were exported.
Basic bitmap is obvious. Hierarchical bitmap is structure of several
bitmaps, where higher levels are conjunctions of intervals on level
below, allowing for efficient lookup of first unset bit.
During NLRI parsing of IPv6 Flowspec, dst prefix was not properly
extracted from NLRI, therefore a received flow was stored in a different
position in flowspec routing table, and was not reachable by command
'show route <flow>'.
Add proper prefix part accessors to flowspec code and use them from BGP
NLRI parsing code.

Netlink: Handle IPv4 routes with IPv6 nexthops
Accept RTA_VIA attribute in all cases. The old code always used
RTA_GATEWAY for IPv4 / IPv6 and RTA_VIA for MPLS. The new code uses
RTA_VIA in cases where AF of network and AF of nexthop differs.
We use constant promotion from IPv4 to Router-ID values, as they have
same literals. Instead of ad-hoc code in filter instructions, add
constant promotion code to parse-time typecheck code.

Filter: Parse-time typechecks
Most expressions can be type-validated in parse time. It is not
strong enough to eliminate runtime checks, but at least one gets
errors immediately during reconfigure.
