ea_same() sometimes returns true for different route attributes,
which caused that hash table in BGP does not work correctly and
some routes were sent with different attributes.
Allows to add more interface patterns to one common 'options'
section like:
interface "eth3", "eth4" { options common to eth3 and eth4 };
Also removes undocumented and unnecessary ability to specify
more interface patterns with different 'options' sections:
interface "eth3" { options ... }, "eth4" { options ... };
Old AS path maching supposes thath AS number appears
only once in AS path, but that is not true. It also
contains some bugs related to AS path sets.
New code does not use any assumptions about semantic
structure of AS path. It is asymptotically slower than
the old code, but on real paths it is not significant.
It also allows '?' for matching one arbitrary AS number.
Cryptographic authentication in OSPF is defective by
design - there might be several packets independently
sent to the network (for example HELLO, LSUPD and LSACK)
where they might be reordered and that causes crypt.
sequence number error.
That can be workarounded by not incresing sequence number
too often. Now we update it only when last packet was sent
before at least one second. This can constitute a risk of
replay attacks, but RFC supposes something similar (like time
in seconds used as CSN).
Routes comming through pipe from primary to secondary table were
filtered by both EXPORT and IMPORT filters, but they should be
only filtered by EXPORT filters.
AS4 optional attribute errors were handled by session
drop (according to BGP RFC). This patch implements
error handling according to new BGP AS4 draft (*)
- ignoring invalid AS4 optional attributes.

The core state machine was broken - it didn't free resources
in START -> DOWN transition and might freed resources after
UP -> STOP transition before protocol turned down. It leads
to deadlock on olock acquisition when lock was not freed
during previous stop.
The current behavior is that resources, allocated during
DOWN -> * transition, are freed in * -> DOWN transition,
and flushing (scheduled in UP -> *) just counteract
feeding (scheduled in * -> UP). Protocol fell down
when both flushing is done (if needed) and protocol
reports DOWN.
BTW, is thera a reason why neighbour cache item acquired
by protocol is not tracked by resource mechanism?
When protocol started, feeding was scheduled. If protocol
got down before feeding was executed, then function
responsible for connecting protocol to kernel routing
tables was called after the function responsible for
disconnecting, then resource pool of protocol was freed,
but freed linked list structures remains in the list.
values for MD5 password ID changed during reconfigure, Second
bug is that BIRD chooses password in first-fit manner, but RFC
says that it should use the one with the latest generate-from.
It also modifies the syntax for multiple passwords.
Now it is possible to just add more 'password' statements
to the interface section and it is not needed to use
'passwords' section. Old syntax can be used too.
- Old MED handling was completely different from behavior
specified in RFCs - for example they havn't been propagated
to neighboring areas.
- Update tie-breaking according to RFC 4271.
- Change default value for 'default bgp_med' configuration
option according to RFC 4271.
- metric is 3 byte long now
- summary lsa originating
- more OSPF areas possible
- virtual links
- better E1/E2 routes handling
- some bug fixes..
I have to do:
- md5 auth (last mandatory item from rfc2328)
- !!!!DEBUG!!!!! (mainly virtual link system has probably a lot of bugs)
- 2328 appendig E
neighbor->scope now contains proper address scope which is zero (SCOPE_HOST)
for local addresses, higher (SCOPE_LINK, ..., SCOPE_UNIVERSE) for remote ones.
o Use `expr' instead of `NUM' and `ipa' instead of `IPA',
so that defined symbols work everywhere.
o `define' now accepts both numbers and IP addresses.
o Renamed `ipa' in filters to `fipa'.
Pavel, please update filters to accept define'd symbols as well.
contains all attributes, not just the temporary ones. This avoids having
to merge the lists inside protocols or doing searches on both of them.
Also, do filtering of routes properly. (I'd like to avoid it, but it's
needed at least in the krt protocol.)
show the routing table as exported to the protocol given resp. as returned
from its import control hook.
To get handling of filtered extended attributes right (even in the old
`show route where <filter>' command), the get_route_info hook gets an
attribute list and all protocol specific rte attributes are contained
there as temporary ones. Updated RIP to do that.
Added ea_append() which joins two ea_list's.
Please try compiling your code with --enable-warnings to see them. (The
unused parameter warnings are usually bogus, the unused variable ones
are very useful, but gcc is unable to control them separately.)
Added real comparison of BGP routes (inspired by the Cisco one).
Default local preference and default MED are now settable.
Defined filter keywords for all BGP attributes we know.
of calling the protocols manually.
Implemented printing of dynamic attributes in `show route all'.
Each protocol can now register its own attribute class (protocol->attr_class,
set to EAP_xxx) and also a callback for naming and formatting of attributes.
The callback can return one of the following results:
GA_UNKNOWN Attribute not recognized.
GA_NAME Attribute name recognized and put to the buffer,
generic code should format the value.
GA_FULL Both attribute name and value put to the buffer.
Please update protocols generating dynamic attributes to provide
the attr_class and formatting hook.
