Kernel protocol calls rt_export_merged(), which used @rte_update_pool for
temporary allocations, supposing it is called from other functions from
rt-table.c that handles locking and flushing of the linpool. Therefore,
linpool was not flushed properly and memory leaked.
Add linpool argument to rt_export_merged() and use @krt_filter_lp when
called from kernel protocol.
Thanks to Justin Cattle and Alexander Frolkin for the bugreport.

This updates the documentation to correctly mention Babel when protocols
are listed, and adds examples and route attribute documentation to the
Babel section of the docs.

This patch implements the IPv6 subset of the Babel routing protocol.
Based on the patch from Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen, with some heavy
modifications and bugfixes.
Thanks to Toke Hoiland-Jorgensen for the original patch.
Counter exp_routes is increased during initial route feed after GR
recovery, so it has to start with zero, otherwise BIRD will end with
double value in exp_routes.
When a kernel route changed, function krt_learn_scan() noticed that and
replaced the route in internal kernel FIB, but after that, function
krt_learn_prune() failed to propagate the new route to the nest, because
it confused the new route with the (removed) old best route and decided
that the best route did not changed.
Wow, the original code (and the bug) is almost 17 years old.
Symbol lookup by cf_find_symbol() not only did the lookup but also added
new void symbols allocated from cfg_mem linpool, which gets broken when
lookups are done outside of config parsing, which may lead to crashes
during reconfiguration.
The patch separates lookup-only cf_find_symbol() and config-modifying
cf_get_symbol(), while the later is called only during parsing. Also
new_config and cfg_mem global variables are NULLed outside of parsing.
The new RIP implementation fixes plenty of old bugs and also adds support
for many new features: ECMP support, link state support, BFD support,
configurable split horizon and more. Most options are now per-interface.
In some circumstances during reconfiguration, routes propagated by pipes
to other tables may hang there even after the primary routes are removed.
There is already a workaround for this issue in the code which removes
these stale routes by flush process when source protocols are shut down.
This patch is a cleaner fix and allows to simplify the flush process
Now the order is:
Up -> iface, addr, neigh
Down -> neigh, addr, iface
It fixes the case when an iface appears, related static routes are
activated and exported to OSPF before the iface notification and
therefore forwarding addresses are not encoded in generated external
LSAs.
