The patch adds suport for specifying route attributes together with
static routes, e.g.:
route 10.1.1.0/24 via 10.0.0.1 { krt_advmss = 1200; ospf_metric1 = 100; };
Fixes cases where the same network or external route are propagated by
several OSPF routes and some other corner cases in next hop construction
and ECMP. Allows to specify whether external routes should be merged.
Thanks to Peter Christensen for the original patch.
I/O:
- BSD: specify src addr on IP sockets by IP_HDRINCL
- BSD: specify src addr on UDP sockets by IP_SENDSRCADDR
- Linux: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IP_PKTINFO
- IPv6: specify src addr on IP/UDP sockets by IPV6_PKTINFO
- Alternative SKF_BIND flag for binding to IP address
- Allows IP/UDP sockets without tx_hook, on these
sockets a packet is discarded when TX queue is full
- Use consistently SOL_ for socket layer values.
OSPF:
- Packet src addr is always explicitly set
- Support for secondary addresses in BSD
- Dynamic RX/TX buffers
- Fixes some minor buffer overruns
- Interface option 'tx length'
- Names for vlink pseudoifaces (vlinkX)
- Vlinks use separate socket for TX
- Vlinks do not use fixed associated iface
- Fixes TTL for direct unicast packets
- Fixes DONTROUTE for OSPF sockets
- Use ifa->ifname instead of ifa->iface->name
Router ID could be automatically determined based of subset of
ifaces/addresses specified by 'router id from' option. The patch also
does some minor changes related to router ID reconfiguration.
Thanks to Alexander V. Chernikov for most of the work.
Allows to send and receive multiple routes for one network by one BGP
session. Also contains necessary core changes to support this (routing
tables accepting several routes for one network from one protocol).
It needs some more cleanup before merging to the master branch.
Now it shows a distance, option to change showing reachable/all network
nodes and better handling of AS-external LSAs in multiple areas. The
command 'show ospf topology' was changed to not show stubnets in both
OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 (previously it displayed stubnets in OSPFv2).
- BSD kernel syncer is now self-conscious and can learn alien routes
- important bugfix in BSD kernel syncer (crash after protocol restart)
- many minor changes and bugfixes in kernel syncers and neighbor cache
- direct protocol does not generate host and link local routes
- min_scope check is removed, all routes have SCOPE_UNIVERSE by default
- also fixes some remaining compiler warnings
It seems that by adding one pipe-specific exception to route
announcement code and by adding one argument to rt_notify() callback i
could completely eliminate the need for the phantom protocol instance
and therefore make the code more straightforward. It will also fix some
minor bugs (like ignoring debug flag changes from the command line).
