+
+ * (general) Fix some niggly issues around 'shutdown' and clearing
+ by adding a Clearing FSM wait-state and a hidden 'Deleted'
+ FSM state, to allow deleted peers to 'cool off' and hit 0
+ references. This introduces a slow memory leak of struct peer,
+ however that's more a testament to the fragility of the
+ reference counting than a bug in this patch, cleanup of
+ reference counting to fix this is to follow.
+ * bgpd.h: Add Clearing, Deleted states and Clearing_Completed
+ and event.
+ * bgp_debug.c: (bgp_status_msg[]) Add strings for Clearing and
+ Deleted.
+ * bgp_fsm.h: Don't allow timer/event threads to set anything
+ for Deleted peers.
+ * bgp_fsm.c: (bgp_timer_set) Add Clearing and Deleted. Deleted
+ needs to stop everything.
+ (bgp_stop) Remove explicit fsm_change_status call, the
+ general framework handles the transition.
+ (bgp_start) Log a warning if a start is attempted on a peer
+ that should stay down, trying to start a peer.
+ (struct .. FSM) Add Clearing_Completed
+ events, has little influence except when in state
+ Clearing to signal wait-state can end.
+ Add Clearing and Deleted states, former is a wait-state,
+ latter is a placeholder state to allow peers to disappear
+ quietly once refcounts settle.
+ (bgp_event) Try reduce verbosity of FSM state-change debug,
+ changes to same state are not interesting (Established->Established)
+ Allow NULL action functions in FSM.
+ * bgp_packet.c: (bgp_write) Use FSM events, rather than trying
+ to twiddle directly with FSM state behind the back of FSM.
+ (bgp_write_notify) ditto.
+ (bgp_read) Remove the vague ACCEPT_PEER peer_unlock, or else
+ this patch crashes, now it leaks instead.
+ * bgp_route.c: (bgp_clear_node_complete) Clearing_Completed
+ event, to end clearing.
+ (bgp_clear_route) See extensive comments.
+ * bgpd.c: (peer_free) should only be called while in Deleted,
+ peer refcounting controls when peer_free is called.
+ bgp_sync_delete should be here, not in peer_delete.
+ (peer_delete) Initiate delete.
+ Transition to Deleted state manually.
+ When removing peer from indices that provide visibility of it,
+ take great care to be idempotent wrt the reference counting
+ of struct peer through those indices.
+ Use bgp_timer_set, rather than replicating.
+ Call to bgp_sync_delete isn't appropriate here, sync can be
+ referenced while shutting down and finishing deletion.
+ (peer_group_bind) Take care to be idempotent wrt list references
+ indexing peers.

* bgp_aspath.c: (aspath_highest) new, return highest ASN in an
