1999-03-29Moved all system-dependent #include's containing endianity conversionMartin Mares
functions to sysdep header endian.h.
1999-03-26Moved to a much more systematic way of configuring kernel protocols.Martin Mares
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.
1999-03-04Fixed processing of !krt_capable() routes. Converted device route decisionsMartin Mares
to the krt_capable mechanism as well.
1999-03-04KRT: Implemented asynchronous route / interface state notificationsMartin Mares
(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.
1999-03-04Use dmalloc instead of EFence when available (dmalloc has lot of improvementsMartin Mares
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().
1999-03-03Fix several things I broke today.Martin Mares
1999-03-03Rewrote the kernel syncer. The old layering was horrible.Martin Mares
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.
1999-03-02o The if_change_too_big_p change was too high-spirited. Fixed.Martin Mares
o Introduced if_find_by_index() o Recognizing two types of interface updates: full update (starting with if_start_update(), ending with if_end_update(), guaranteed to see all existing interfaces) and a partial update (only if_update(), usually due to asynchronous interface notifications).
1999-03-02Interface logic changes:Martin Mares
o Introduced IF_LINK_UP flag corresponding to real link state. o Allowed addressless interfaces. o IF_UP is now automatically calculated and set iff the interface is administratively up, has link up and has an IP address assigned. It may be IF_IGNORED, though (as in case of the loopback). o Any changes which include up/down transition are considered small enough to not provoke artificial upping and downing of the interface. o When an interface disappears (i.e., it wasn't seen in the last scan), we announce this change only once. o IF_LOOPBACK implies IF_IGNORE.
1999-03-01Added SK_MAGIC type sockets for internal use by system dependent code,Martin Mares
especially for netlink communication.
1999-03-01Use traditional Unix route/iface interface only when CONFIG_NETLINKMartin Mares
is not defined. Also moved declarations of Unix iface logic to krt.h.
1999-02-13When shutting down, remove all routes (except for RTS_INHERIT and RTS_DEVICEMartin Mares
routes) from kernel routing tables unless the "persist" switch is set.
1999-02-13Moved sanity check of protocol state during annoucements to rte_announce.Martin Mares
1999-02-13Perform gracious shutdown upon receipt of SIGTERM. Finally we canMartin Mares
test the whole protocol shutdown code... :)
1999-02-13Synchronize signals to the main select/event/timer loop.Martin Mares
Parse command line options.
1999-02-13config->router_id works again.Martin Mares
1999-02-11Run the event queue before writing SIGUSR dumps.Martin Mares
1999-02-11Added simple event scheduling system to avoid recursive callingMartin Mares
of various callbacks. Events are just another resource type objects (thus automatically freed and unlinked when the protocol using them shuts down). Each event can be linked in at most one event list. For most purposes, just use the global event list handled by the following functions: ev_schedule Schedule event to be called at the next event scheduling point. If the event was already scheduled, it's just re-linked to the end of the list. ev_postpone Postpone an already scheduled event, so that it won't get called. Postponed events can be scheduled again by ev_schedule(). You can also create custom event lists to build your own synchronization primitives. Just use: ev_init_list to initialize an event list ev_enqueue to schedule event on specified event list ev_postpone works as well for custom lists ev_run_list to run all events on your custom list ev_run to run a specific event and dequeue it
1999-02-05Synced kernel interface to new interface.Martin Mares
1999-02-05Implemented new configuration/reconfiguration interface and defined protocolMartin Mares
state machines. Full explanation will follow soon.
1999-01-15filters_init() renamed to filters_postconfig().Pavel Machek
1999-01-15Filters, second try. This time they have their own directory.Pavel Machek
1999-01-15Properly initialize filters. Also bumped version to 0.0.0 as itPavel Machek
actually does something.
1998-12-20die() -> bug() where appropriate.Martin Mares
1998-12-20Finer grained logging levels:Martin Mares
#define L_DEBUG "\001" /* Debugging messages */ #define L_INFO "\002" /* Informational messages */ #define L_WARN "\003" /* Warnings */ #define L_ERR "\004" /* Errors */ #define L_AUTH "\005" /* Authorization failed etc. */ #define L_FATAL "\006" /* Fatal errors */ #define L_TRACE "\002" /* Protocol tracing */ #define L_INFO "\003" /* Informational messages */ #define L_REMOTE "\004" /* Remote protocol errors */ #define L_WARN "\004" /* Local warnings */ #define L_ERR "\005" /* Local errors */ #define L_AUTH "\006" /* Authorization failed etc. */ #define L_FATAL "\007" /* Fatal errors */ #define L_BUG "\010" /* BIRD bugs */ Introduced bug() which is like die(), but with level L_BUG. Protocols should _never_ call die() as it should be used only during initialization and on irrecoverable catastrophic events like out of memory. Also introduced ASSERT() which behaves like normal assert(), but it calls bug() when assertion fails. When !defined(DEBUGGING), it gets ignored.
1998-12-08Hopefully finished kernel syncer (krt) rewrite:Martin Mares
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.
1998-12-08Rewritten kernel syncer. Now uses the rta trickery I've introduced yesterdayMartin Mares
and does things "the right way". Few things are still missing (device routes etc.), I'll add them later in the evening.
1998-12-07KRF_* flags moved to krt.h as they are internal to kernel syncer,Martin Mares
fib->pad0,pad1 renamed to x0,x1 and in case of struct net x0 is reserved for kernel syncing as well.
1998-12-06Kernel syncer is now configurable. It will probably need some moreMartin Mares
options, but at least basic tuning is possible now.
1998-11-27First attempt at protocol configuration (now done only for RIP).Martin Mares
1998-11-27Compile and use the new configuration code by default.Martin Mares
1998-11-16Complain loudly if the logging buffer would overflow.Martin Mares
1998-10-19Generate router_id automatically if possible (standard "smallest of localMartin Mares
regular interface addresses" rule). Protocols should NOT rely on router_id existence -- when router ID is not available, the router_id variable is set to zero and protocols requiring valid router ID should just refuse to start, reporting such error to the log.
1998-10-19Basic kernel routing table syncing implemented. Learning of routes installedMartin Mares
by other programs or the kernel itself is not supported yet, but it's not needed for development of other protocols.
1998-10-19Use (SOCK_DGRAM,IPPROTO_IP) socket instead of (SOCK_STREAM,IPPROTO_TCP).Martin Mares
This is exactly what Linux ifconfig does and seems to be the preferred way.
1998-10-19Exporting fill_in_sockaddr() for use by other unix-dependent code.Martin Mares
1998-10-18Since almost every UNIX system requires different techniques for readingMartin Mares
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 ;-)
1998-10-18Split protocol init to building of protocol list and real protocol init.Martin Mares
Added kernel route table syncer skeleton.
1998-10-17Solve chicken-and-egg problems with protocol startup. We now queue all inactiveMartin Mares
protocols and don't send route/interface updates to them and when they come up, we resend the whole route/interface tables privately. Removed the "scan interface list after protocol start" work-around.
1998-10-14Moved scanning of interfaces, so that they get initialized after allMartin Mares
routing protocol instances.
1998-10-13o There are cases when SIOCGIFINDEX is defined, but it doesn't work. WhenMartin Mares
this happens, don't reject the whole interface, just mark it as index 0. o Removed Pavel's comment about EFAULT and SIGSEGV. EFAULT is a valid return code for cases where the buffer is too small. o Commented out the smart interface list size logic temporarily as it seems Linux 2.0 SIOCGIFCONF doesn't react to ifc_req==NULL sanely. Replaced it by exponential stepping.
1998-10-13Strange, on atrey ioctl() does not fill structure, and bird segfaultsPavel Machek
on it. Now we "only" die().
1998-07-15Added comment explaining `now'.Martin Mares
1998-07-10Replaced remaining references of clock_t by bird_clock_t.Martin Mares
1998-07-09Making SIGUSR1 dump also all protocols.Pavel Machek
1998-06-17debug() and log() use the new printf. Feel free to use new formattingMartin Mares
sequences for all output.
1998-06-04Fixed processing of timers.Martin Mares
1998-06-03Killed socket debug code. Initialize config pool and protocols.Martin Mares
More to come later...
1998-06-01Synced to new interface code.Martin Mares
1998-05-26Whee, multicast sockets work!Martin Mares
Implemented recurrent timers.
