1999-10-29Configure PATH_CONTROL_SOCKET.Martin Mares
autoconf.h is now written to obj/sysdep, the source tree is hopefully completely read-only now.
1999-10-29Added skeleton of the client. Does nothing, but at least compiles.Martin Mares
1999-10-02Failure to set socket TOS is not a fatal error.Martin Mares
1999-08-17Added a function for generating 32-bit random numbers.Martin Mares
1999-08-03Taught Netlink how to behave in IPv6 world.Martin Mares
1999-08-03Support for IPv6 sockets. How nice one doesn't have to ifdef aroundMartin Mares
ten years of API evolution :-)
1999-08-03Basic support for IPv6. The system-dependent part doesn't work yet,Martin Mares
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.
1999-08-03Kernel route syncer supports multiple tables.Martin Mares
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. :)
1999-08-03Changes to interface handling on traditional Unices:Martin Mares
o Aliases are interpreted as secondary addresses. o When the system doesn't supply interface indices, generate our ones.
1999-08-03Added functions for parsing and formatting of dates.Martin Mares
1999-06-01Grrr, the "obvious fix" to multicasting code from yesterday wasMartin Mares
fundamentally wrong. Reversed.
1999-05-31Fix potential multicasting bug.Martin Mares
1999-05-31Added extra argument to rt_update hook which contains a pointer to theMartin Mares
temporary attribute list.
1999-05-21Added CONFIG_MULTIPLE_TABLES whereever appropriate.Martin Mares
1999-05-21Removed one unused structure field.Martin Mares
1999-05-17Kill remaining master_table relics in KRT code.Martin Mares
Make all protocols pass routing table to rte_update and rte_discard.
1999-05-07Netlink support for secondary interface addresses.Martin Mares
1999-05-06I rewrote the interface handling code, so that it supports multipleMartin Mares
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.
1999-04-14Multicasts once again: When using SO_BINDTODEVICE, don't specify IP addressMartin Mares
of the interface.
1999-04-14Next attempt to get SO_BINDTODEVICE work :)Martin Mares
1999-04-14Use SO_BINDTODEVICE if we're using old multicast API (i.e., struct ip_mreqMartin Mares
and not ip_mreqn). This should get multicasts on unnumbered PtP links work.
1999-04-12Ignore alias interfaces (some day, we will treat them as pure secondaryMartin Mares
interface addresses).
1999-04-12Removed TOS support. This simplifies many things a lot.Martin Mares
1999-04-12Use `struct ip_mreqn' instead of `struct ip_mreq' for multicastMartin Mares
operations on 2.1/2.2 kernels. This allows passing of real interface indexes instead of referencing interfaces by their IP addresses which fails badly in presence of unnumbered interfaces. Unfortunately, this structure is not visible with glibc 2.0 as it provides its own networking headers :-( Both libc5 and glibc 2.1 should be OK.
1999-04-12Fixed a couple of bugs in handling of multicast sockets.Martin Mares
See comments in lib/socket.h for a detailed guide on how to use them.
1999-04-07Portability fixes.Martin Mares
1999-04-03More changes to the kernel syncer.Martin Mares
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.
1999-04-03Defined CONFIG_SELF_CONSCIOUS whenever the kernel scanner is ableMartin Mares
to distinguish between our own routes and alien ones.
1999-04-02Fixed `too many interfaces' cases.Martin Mares
1999-04-02Believe it or not, printf()'s does not work too much without this one.Pavel Machek
1999-04-01Argh, the fix was wrong.Martin Mares
1999-04-01Portability fixes.Martin Mares
1999-04-01First few FreeBSD portability fixes.Martin Mares
1999-03-29Remember that we can run device syncer without kernel syncerMartin Mares
and vice versa now.
1999-03-29Clarify resource dumps and include them in the main debugging dump.Martin Mares
1999-03-29Don't try to delete interface routes on CONFIG_AUTO_ROUTES systems.Martin Mares
1999-03-29Moved all system-dependent #include's containing endianity conversionMartin Mares
functions to sysdep header endian.h.
1999-03-27Cleaned up system configuration files -- removed few obsolete parameters,Martin Mares
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.
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.
1999-03-24Removed our declaration of RTPROT_BIRD since Alexey has assignedMartin Mares
us a real protocol number in 2.2.4 kernel.
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.
1999-03-04Although there are still heaps of FIXME's, Netlink works.Martin Mares
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 :)).
1999-03-04Converted some mb_alloc/bzero pairs to mb_allocz.Martin Mares
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().
1999-03-03Netlink scans routes...Martin Mares
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.
1999-03-02Netlink module supports interface scan on startup. Working on more.Martin Mares
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).
