[PATCH v2][RFC] BFD: Labeling a manually configured neighbor for tracking
Miao Wang
shankerwangmiao at gmail.com
Thu Mar 30 21:01:51 CEST 2023
For BFD controlled Static routes, the BFD sessions are created
to the route next hop. However, in some scenarios, e.g. when the
next hop itself does not support BFD, or when it might be more
meaningful to create the session to a remote monitoring station,
we need more flexible relationship between a static route nexthop
and its controlling BFD session.
In this patch, a numeric label value can be specified with manually
configured BFD neighbors, and a static route nexthop can be
configured to track a certain BFD session using that label. The
detailed behavior is updated in the user's guide.
This feature may also be added to other protocols, but it seems not
so meaningful.
Updates from V1:
- Add the missing UNUSED attribute to newly added label parameter of
bfd_request_session() stub when BFD is not enabled at compile time.
- When cleaning all BFD requests tracking a request created by a
manually configured neighbor, skip the later request itself.
- When reconfigure BFD neighbors, if there are labels with added
neighbors, call bfd_take_requests() to see if there are any matching
requests in bfd_wait_list.
- When starting a BFD protocol instance, setup the manually configured
neighbors before calling bfd_take_requests(), so that those requests
in bfd_wait_list which were tracking non-existence labels can then
be scanned to see if they can match the newly created neighbors.
In case the patch is broken, this patch can also be found at [1].
