832fa033b7 Cleaned up debugging in kernel syncer. Netlink has still LOCAL_DEBUG
turned on, but after some testing I'll gag it.

d07bab3997 ipa_opposite hack is not applicable in IPv6. 2000-03-01 11:29:30 +00:00

6a636392d3 Rewrote interface type detection logic. The `unnumbered' flag is now per
address, not per interface (hence it's ifa->flags & IA_UNNUMBERED) and
should be set reliably. IF_MULTIACCESS should be fixed now, but it isn't
wise to rely on it on interfaces configured with /30 prefix.

aa8761de94 Kernel route syncer now supports dynamic reconfiguration. Also it doesn't
depend on the startup counter hack now and uses a zero-time timer instead
to make itself scheduled after normal protocol startup.

fb89b1a4ce Removed point-to-point tunnel hack as it breaks ordinary PtP interfaces.
I'll find a better solution soon.

67ece6df42 Tried to clean up multicast handling. Now we don't try to guess
multicast abilities depending on definedness of symbols and use hard-wired
system-dependent configuration defines instead.

Please test whereever you can.

4532a89e31 Taught Netlink how to behave in IPv6 world. 1999-08-03 19:37:37 +00:00
Martin Mares
dce267832a Basic support for IPv6. The system-dependent part doesn't work yet,
but the core routines are there and seem to be working.

   o  lib/ipv6.[ch] written
   o  Lexical analyser recognizes IPv6 addresses and when in IPv6
      mode, treats pure IPv4 addresses as router IDs.
   o  Router ID must be configured manually on IPv6 systems.
   o  Added SCOPE_ORGANIZATION for org-scoped IPv6 multicasts.
   o  Fixed few places where ipa_(hton|ntoh) was called as a function
      returning converted address.

7de45ba4a0 Kernel route syncer supports multiple tables.
The changes are just too extensive for lazy me to list them
there, but see the comment at the top of sysdep/unix/krt.c.
The code got a bit more ifdeffy than I'd like, though.

Also fixed a bunch of FIXME's and added a couple of others. :)

a2697f02ac Netlink support for secondary interface addresses. 1999-05-07 13:46:16 +00:00
Martin Mares
9a158361da I rewrote the interface handling code, so that it supports multiple
addresses per interface (needed for example for IPv6 support).

Visible changes:

o  struct iface now contains a list of all interface addresses (represented
   by struct ifa), iface->addr points to the primary address (if any).
o  Interface has IF_UP set iff it's up and it has a primary address.
o  IF_UP is now independent on IF_IGNORED (i.e., you need to test IF_IGNORED
   in the protocols; I've added this, but please check).
o  The if_notify_change hook has been simplified (only one interface pointer
   etc.).
o  Introduced a ifa_notify_change hook. (For now, only the Direct protocol
   does use it -- it's wise to just listen to device routes in all other
   protocols.)
o  Removed IF_CHANGE_FLAGS notifier flag (it was meaningless anyway).
o  Updated all the code except netlink (I'll look at it tomorrow) to match
   the new semantics (please look at your code to ensure I did it right).

Things to fix:

o  Netlink.
o  Make krt-iface interpret "eth0:1"-type aliases as secondary addresses.

08e2d6259a Removed TOS support. This simplifies many things a lot. 1999-04-12 18:01:07 +00:00

c10421d3d4 More changes to the kernel syncer.
o  Now compatible with filtering.
o  Learning of kernel routes supported only on CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS
   systems (on the others it's impossible to get it semantically correct).
o  Learning now stores all of its routes in a separate fib and selects
   the ones the kernel really uses for forwarding packets.
o  Better treatment of CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES ports.
o  Lots of internal changes.

fb71b23e60 Remember that we can run device syncer without kernel syncer
and vice versa now.

1127ac6ec7 Cleaned up system configuration files -- removed few obsolete parameters,
documented the remaining ones (sysdep/cf/README).

Available configurations:

   o  linux-20: Old Linux interface via /proc/net/route (selected by default
		on pre-2.1 kernels).
   o  linux-21: Old Linux interface, but device routes handled by the
		kernel (selected by default for 2.1 and newer kernels).
   o  linux-22: Linux with Netlink (I play with it a lot yet, so it isn't
		a default).
   o  linux-ipv6: Prototype config for IPv6 on Linux. Not functional yet.

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.

f79a749d0b Removed our declaration of RTPROT_BIRD since Alexey has assigned
us a real protocol number in 2.2.4 kernel.

111213f0b6 Fixed processing of !krt_capable() routes. Converted device route decisions
to the krt_capable mechanism as well.

e16155ae4a KRT: Implemented asynchronous route / interface state notifications
(via Netlink). Tweaked kernel synchronization rules a bit. Discovered
locking bug in kernel Netlink :-)

Future plans: Hunt all the bugs and solve all the FIXME's.

2253c9e239 Although there are still heaps of FIXME's, Netlink works.
To build BIRD with Netlink support, just configure it with

	./configure --with-sysconfig=linux-21

After it will be tested well enough, I'll probably make it a default
for 2.2 kernels (and rename it to linux-22 :)).

aa64578641 Netlink scans routes... 1999-03-03 20:57:29 +00:00
Martin Mares
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.

bdb95a21a4 Added skeletal version of Linux netlink interface. It doesn't work yet,
but the framework is there and I'll try finish it soon.

025d14cd5a Use traditional Unix route/iface interface only when CONFIG_NETLINK
is not defined. Also moved declarations of Unix iface logic to krt.h.

8e66a0ebb9 Hopefully finished kernel syncer (krt) rewrite:
o  Interface syncing is now a part of krt and it can have configurable
     parameters. Actually, the only one is scan rate now :)
  o  Kernel routing table syncing is now synchronized with interface
     syncing (we need the most recent version of the interface list
     to prevent lots of routes to non-existent destinations from
     appearing). Instead of its own timer, we just check if it's
     route scan time after each iface list scan.
  o  Syncing of device routes implemented.
  o  CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES should control syncing of automatic device routes.
  o  Rewrote krt_remove_route() to really remove routes :)
  o  Better diagnostics.
  o  Fixed a couple of bugs.

f39e4713c2 Rewritten kernel syncer. Now uses the rta trickery I've introduced yesterday
and does things "the right way". Few things are still missing (device
routes etc.), I'll add them later in the evening.

options, but at least basic tuning is possible now.

such things configurable).

0804525255 Basic kernel routing table syncing implemented. Learning of routes installed
by other programs or the kernel itself is not supported yet, but it's not
needed for development of other protocols.

7e7790c61f Since almost every UNIX system requires different techniques for reading
the kernel routing table as opposed to modifying it which is approximately
the same on non-netlink systems, I've split the kernel routing table
routines to read and write parts. To be implemented later ;-)
