97e46d28ff Adds check for no protocol and some minor CLI fixes.
- Adds check to deny config file with no specified protocol to prevent
  loading of empty config file.
- Moves CLI init before config parse to receive immediate error message
  when cannot open control socket.
- Fixes socket name path check and other error handling in CLI init.

ea0ac8f69a Move CLI socket to the newly created CLI's pool.
(thanks to Andreas for the original idea)

38a608c55a Rewritten the I/O loop. All socket operations are now safe, meaning that
you can delete the socket from anywhere in the hooks and nothing should break.
Also, the receive/transmit buffers are now regular xmalloc()'ed buffers,
not separate resources which would need shuffling around between pools.

sk_close() is gone, use rfree() instead.

5f2a6a9ff3 Fix handling on full pipe to client in bird. Prevent packet overflows
for even only medium sized route table output. Fix a strange garbled
output problem in the client. The latter seems to be caused by some
library doing tcflush while there is still command output pending. So
the best fix here is to do fflush and then tcdrain. Note that this
problem occurs only under certain load situations and is not too easy to
reproduce.

f9eb8f7e06 If compiled with --enable-debug, don't even try to log to syslog unless
the user forces it in the config file.

5ddf4a58f9 During initialization, log to both syslog and stderr. When a configuration
file has been read and it doesn't specify any logging, log to syslog only
(if syslog is not available, then stderr).

4761efdb43 Tracing of CLI connections/commands can be now controlled
by `debug commands <level>' in the configuration. Level 0 means
no tracing, 1 means connections only, 2 includes all commands.

9a220cabbc #ifdef out lots of debugging information.
The long resource/routing table dump printed upon startup is gone now
and if you wish to see it, just send bird SIGUSR1 or use the `debug'
commands.

f75e3bbc01 Fixed a couple of nasty CLI bugs which were triggered on long or multi-part
outputs. It took a whole evening to hunt them down, but now the CLI seems
to work fine.

Now I run three BGP connections with several thousand routes!

e1ddd99377 Changed handling of incoming connections, so that we can send data
from the send hook without worrying about existence of socket buffers.

Also, don't forget to copy peer addresses.

3991d84e8f Changed initialization of protocol list -- now we call proto_build() instead
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.

221135d6bf Include "lib/string.h" instead of <string.h>. It should give us bzero()
and other non-portable functions on all systems.

320f417357 Defined sk_close() which closes the socket safely even if called from
socket hook. Replaces the SK_DELETED hack.

Squashed a couple of bugs in handling of TCP sockets.

6b9fa32080 Great cleanup of debug messages. LOCAL_DEBUG turned off in most modules,
several debug() calls converted to DBG().

bf8558bc9c Converted shutdown to a kind of reconfiguration, it's no more handled
as a exception in protocol state machines. Introduced a `shutdown'
CLI command. Killed few reconfiguration bugs.

50fe90edf3 First attempt on dynamic reconfiguration. There are still lots of bugs
and problems to solve, but the hardest part works.

f545d38707 Added universal locking mechanism which will solve problems
with protocols wanting to use the same port on the same interface
during reconfiguration time.

How to use locks: In the if_notify hook, just order locks for the
interfaces you want to work with and do the real socket opening after the
lock hook function gets called. When you stop using the socket, close
it and rfree() the lock.

Please update your protocols to use the new locking mechanism.

a0c37b45e5 Logging is now configurable. You can define multiple log outputs (to both
files and syslog) and assign lists of message categories to each of them.

7e5f5ffdda Moved to a much more systematic way of configuring kernel protocols.
o  Nothing is configured automatically. You _need_ to specify
     the kernel syncer in config file in order to get it started.
  o  Syncing has been split to route syncer (protocol "Kernel") and
     interface syncer (protocol "Device"), device routes are generated
     by protocol "Direct" (now can exist in multiple instances, so that
     it will be possible to feed different device routes to different
     routing tables once multiple tables get supported).

See doc/bird.conf.example for a living example of these shiny features.

7a2105becd Use dmalloc instead of EFence when available (dmalloc has lot of improvements
over EFence and also hopefully smaller memory overhead, but sadly it's non-free
for commercial use).

If the DMALLOC_OPTIONS environment variable is not set, switch on `reasonable'
checks by default.

Also introduced mb_allocz() for cleared mb_alloc().

2d14045224 Rewrote the kernel syncer. The old layering was horrible.
The new kernel syncer is cleanly split between generic UNIX module
and OS dependent submodules:

  -  krt.c (the generic part)
  -  krt-iface (low-level functions for interface handling)
  -  krt-scan (low-level functions for routing table scanning)
  -  krt-set (low-level functions for setting of kernel routes)

krt-set and krt-iface are common for all BSD-like Unices, krt-scan is heavily
system dependent (most Unices require /dev/kmem parsing, Linux uses /proc),
Netlink substitues all three modules.

We expect each UNIX port supports kernel routing table scanning, kernel
interface table scanning, kernel route manipulation and possibly also
asynchronous event notifications (new route, interface state change;
not implemented yet) and build the KRT protocol on the top of these
primitive operations.
