2011-07-20bgpd: Adds support to mark up the BGP rib table entry with multipathJosh Bailey
information based on the multipath list (mp_list) generated during the best path calculation. Display "multipath" for paths that are multipath and also on bestpath if the route is multipath. Flag a best path with the BGP_INFO_MULTIPATH_CHG if the multipath set has changed since the last update. This can be used to trigger updates to zebra and peers. The multipath markup is a lazily allocated bgp_info_mpath structure that is added to the best path and any multipaths. The mpath structures are linked together with the best path element at the head and the other elements ordered by nexthop and then by peer address. This markup scheme is updated by calling bgp_info_mpath_update() and passing in a new mp_list the the current multipath set. There are additional API's for walking the multipath set, querying the count of multipaths, and for cleaning up the multipath markup information when freeing path information. * bgpd/bgp_mpath.c * bgp_info_mpath_new(): Allocation of new mpath element * bgp_info_mpath_free(): Release memory for mpath element * bgp_info_mpath_get(): Access mpath element of path. Allocate memory on-demand * bgp_info_mpath_enqueue(): Enqueue a path onto the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_dequeue(): Remove a path from the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_first(): Return first path on the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_next(): Return next path on the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_count(): Return the number of paths on the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_count_set(): Set the number of paths on the multipath list * bgp_info_mpath_update(): Update multipath markup on bgp route table entry and flag any changes. Emit 'debug bgp event' output on any multipath change. * bgpd/bgp_mpath.h * struct bgp_info_mpath: Information added to a bgp_info path to record multipath information * External declarations for new functions in bgp_mpath.c * bgpd/bgp_route.c * bgp_info_free(): Free mpath memory when freeing path information * bgp_info_reap(): Dequeue path from multipath queue before deleting it * bgp_best_selection(): Calls bgp_info_mpath_update() with latest mp_list to mark-up rib table entry * bgp_vty_out_detail(): Add display of multipath flag for a path. Also display 'multipath' for bestpath if it is a multipath route * bgpd/bgp_route.h * struct bgp_info: Add pointer to bgp_info_mpath information * Add flags to mark a path as multipath (BGP_INFO_MULTIPATH) and to mark bestpath if multipath information has changed (BGP_INFO_MULTIPATH_CHG) * lib/memtypes.c * Add MTYPE_BGP_MPATH_INFO for allocating memory for bgp_info_mpath * tests/bgp_mpath_test.c * Add test case for bgp_info_mpath_update() and supporting functions
2011-07-20bgpd: Adds equal-paths check to path comparison. Paths that areJosh Bailey
equal to the best path are accumulated onto an ordered list (mp_list) if maximum-paths is configured. A future commit will add the multipath markup to the BGP rib table based on the mp_list. Add unit test for the added mp_list functions. Deterministic MED is not supported in this commit, it will be added later. * bgpd/bgp_aspath.c * Make aspath_cmp() an external symbol so it can be used in equivalent paths check * bgpd/bgp_aspath.h * Add extern declaration of aspath_cmp() * bgpd/bgp_mpath.c * bgp_info_nexthop_cmp(): Compares nexthops of two paths * bgp_info_mpath_cmp(): Compare function to order multipaths by nexthop and then by peer address * bgp_mp_list_init(): Initialize a list with the multipath order function * bgp_mp_list_clear(): Clear out the mp_list * bgp_mp_list_add(): Add a multipath to mp_list * bgpd/bgp_mpath.h * External declarations for above added functions in bgp_mpath.c * bgpd/bgp_route.c * bgp_info_cmp(): Add equivalent paths result (paths_eq). If eBGP paths are equal down to IGP metric check, flag as equal if peer AS matches. Similarly for iBGP paths but compare full AS_PATH. * bgp_best_selection(): If multipath is enabled, accumulate equivalent paths in mp_list. Add debug bgp event output to see result (will be filtered later to display only when change occurs) * bgp_process_rsclient(): Pass multipath config to bgp_best_selection() * bgp_process_main(): Pass multipath config to bgp_best_selection() * tests/bgp_mpath_test.c * Add unit test case for bgp_mp_list functions
2011-07-20bgpd: add bgp_mpath_test.cJosh Bailey
* tests/bgp_mpath_test.c * New file with test framework for testing BGP multipath * Add test for CLI support functions * tests/Makefile.am * Add new testbgpmpath target
